It’s Lance Armstrong’s Oprah Interview Mixed And Mashed Into Radiohead’s ‘Creep’

Written by Ashley Burns / 01.29.13

Say what you want about him, but Lance Armstrong's karaoke night had great drink specials.

I’m more affected by the fact that Radiohead’s “Creep” is old enough to drink than I am by anything that Lance Armstrong says lately, which is why I only watched the former 7-time Tour de France champion’s interview with Oprah Winfrey so I could burn a few thousand calories by practicing my eye roll exercises. But you already know everything that went down in that interview from Armstrong admitting that he used more drugs than your parents in the 70s and Oprah’s nip slip that may have been part of a strange dream of mine.

Fortunately, from the ashes of disgrace rises the Internet’s creativity, as a brilliant man named Matthijs Vlot chopped up Armstrong’s interview with Oprah and turned it into a delightful cover of Radiohead’s “Creep”, which is quite a fitting song for the athlete who deceived the entire world.

But is it the most fitting song? Probably, but I still have another request.

The Bizarre Twitter Obsession With Tim Tebow Possibly Having Herpes - Apparently Twitter has never heard of cold sores. Ron Mexico has herpes AND murdered a bunch of dogs, let’s stay focused here, people. [Buzzfeed]

Arkansas State’s One-Armed Fan Deserves Props for an Awesome Sign - Well done. Also, it’s fun to pretend “Brobible” rhymes with “probable”. [Brobible]

The Best Of #Jack Donaghy - “I tracked him down to an address in Brooklyn. He’s on LinkedIn, Lemon. He might as well be dead.” [UPROXX]

emmy-rossum-has-dead-eyesThe World Was A Much Better Place With MTV’s Rock N Jock Sports - Don’t sleep on this gallery of pants Dan Cortese has worn. MTV should bring this back, but first they’ve got to seem like they’re run by human beings again. [With Leather]

Jay-Z Delivers New Song “Glory” For Baby Blue Ivy - Nas should record a Blue Ivy diss track, now. Jay whimpering about how beautiful his daughter is really puts those SHE’S THE DAUGHTER OF THE ILLUMINATI SATAN rumors into perspective, doesn’t it? [Smoking Section]

“Shameless” Season Two Review: Emmy Rossum Now Even More Naked than Ever - I love how HBO and Showtime have basically just turned into the Mr. Skin Network. Emmy Rossum should try filming an episode with her shirt on and see if the show gets any better. [Pajiba]

Kenny Powers Is Back. Thank God. - “You know what? I can already tell that I don’t like you. And I’m probably not gonna like you no matter how many pull-ups or push ups you can do.” [Warming Glow]

Here’s The Ghost Rider 2/He-Man Mashup Absolutely No One Saw Coming - Solid, but not as good as the Four Non Blondes/He-Man mash-up (though few things are). [UPROXX]

What’s With The Devil Inside’s Ending? - I hate this so much I can barely put it into words. This is the Lynchburg Virginia Haunted House of movies. Sure, the house is great, but there’s a dude waiting to tell me to go to his church and get keen on Jesus at the end. [Film Drunk]

Is Spanish Actress Lina Sanz Angelina Jolie’s Long Lost Twin? - I bet Angelina Jolie is really tired of people sending this to her. I also bet she’s never used a computer, and sends e-mails via courier. [The FW]

The Largely Depressing Fates Of 10 Iconic Child Actors - If the people who wrote this think Chunk losing weight and becoming a lawyer is depressing, they should read about what happened to the little girl who voiced Ducky in The Land Before Time. THAT sh*t is depressing. [FARK]

Altering More Childhood Memories with Betty Rubble and Wilma Flintstone Cosplay - Forget Betty, Pebbles circa ‘The Pebbles & Bamm-Bamm Show’ is where it’s at. [Unreality]

My Day Is Now Shot To Hell

Written by JOSH Z / 04.28.10

super mario crossover

These are screencaps from the game Super Mario Crossover, and it’s exactly what it sounds like. It’s a Flash-based game that looks exactly like the old 8-bit “Super Mario Bros.” from Nintendo, but with one delicious exception: You can also play as one of the characters from a number of classic NES games.

Simon (Castlevania), Samus (Metroid), Mario, Link (The Legend Of Zelda), Mega Man, and Bill from Contra are all here, complete with their original powers from their respective games. When you grab mushrooms and flowers, their weapons upgrade accordingly. It’s quite awesome. Here’s the link, and I guess I’ll see you sometime next Monday, because I can’t imagine you doing anything else with your free time before the weekend. Hopefully that’s just hyperbole. –via Kotaku.

Skillet vs. Gus Johnson: ‘Here Comes The Pain’

Written by JOSH Z / 03.30.10

skillet_gus_johnson

We say this a lot, but this time I truly mean it. If you don’t like this video mashup after the jump featuring Skillet the bulldog [who made his UPROXX debut on FilmDrunk last week] and soundbites from CBS play-by-play screamer Gus Johnson [via this immaculate creation], we can’t be friends. At all. Ever. In fact, if you don’t enjoy the hell out of this video, you may as well just quit reading this site altogether. Because I haven’t felt as good about anything as I have about this. And that’s after watching this Chatroulette spoof earlier in the day. Trust me, it’s awesome. And if it’s not…hey, it runs less than a minute. Get over there, already.

EPIC BEARD MAN – PUNCH-OUT!! MASHUP

Written by JOSH Z / 03.01.10

epic_beard_man_punch_out

This is so much better than your average mashup. The pre-fight dialog. The gratuitous flashing of cash. The attention to detail. The money quote at the end of it. This is better than anyone could have asked for. Thank you, internet. You’re a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. And thanks, Ed. Read the rest of this entry »
