I always thought the idea of engagement rings was redundant and stupidly over-priced in the first place. But honest question here: is all of that video true? It's a video from a humour site, so I don't know if it's 100% factual or something more akin to The Onion.

It's mostly factual, though there is historical precedent to nobility giving diamonds as engagement gifts going back to the 15th century, the practice died out in the US, until it was revitalized by the aforementioned DeBeers advertising campaign.

Strong Bad perfectly sums up the majority of superhero movies.



Man, I miss Homestar Runner.

Be Prepared, that's the boy scout's marching song...

(cause you know the ONE TIME you go to the game with your sister, that's when the kiss-cam will strike)

Ok, we've all said things like "boobs that defy gravity" at one time or another but this is ridiculous.

 

[PatrThom]

...and then she puked.

I will say that I remember my SCUBA class was entertaining, and I will leave it at that.

DO NOT WATCH AT WORK. VERY NSFW DIALOG (well, monolog, really)



The Second City Network has grown women read hookup app messages from Grindr, SCRUFF, and GROWLr (gay hookup mobile apps) out loud.

I probably find this hilarious because of how much I hate most vloggers. With some very - VERY - rare exceptions, I find them all this annoying.

I busted a gut on the reveal that she was just talking to a wall.

That pretty much made the video for me.

Also, I got a thumbs up from GasBandit? That shit's worth like platinum! In your face, bitches!

Ok, I don't know why this isn't here yet. Brian Williams and Lester Holt perform "Rappers' Delight."

This has now been rectified.

EDIT: And re-rectified after the original was taken down.

Secondary characters interacting? YOSH!

I was just coming here to post that myself, lol.

I've owned dot matrix printers that had initialization routines that sounded like C&C Music Factory, but this is better.

 

[GasBandit]

There's a fine line between romantic and creepy.

That line is "are you attractive."

A friend of mine on Facebook posted these guys.









Here's a link to all of their videos

Those are pretty sweet. But who the hell was playing drums in the Highway to Hell video?

Their drummer - he's pretty awesome.

 

[Ravenpoe]

Their drummer - he's pretty awesome.

But he's not shown, which was my point. They just start playing cello in a guitar center with an invisible ghost on an invisible drum set.

That sort of stuff always takes me out.

 

[DarkAudit]

Hey, Ukelele Lady! Found this. It's in Japanese, but still...

Some of their other videos show him - especially the live ones.

Be sure to watch the second prank too, after the closing billboard.

Turkish car insurance commercial. Wait for it.

I love the fact that the live-action audience in the background are repeating their motions.

More 2Cellos fun:



As a (technically) classical bassist, I whole heartedly approve of these guys.

 

[ThatNickGuy]

God, I wish I had the money for this.

As a trombonist, I wholeheartedly approve of these guys.

We've been passing that video around amongst ourselves at work all day.
