Give credit where it’s due to NBA star Chris Paul and his three associates here in a terrific spoof of the film Paranormal Activity. It’s rather charming throughout, but has two solid lollerskating moments. My favorite part happens ten seconds before the end of the video when Paul gets called for a personal foul against Dwyane Wade. Sorry, that will never not be funny to me. Unless somebody else does it. Thanks to Ben at That NBA Lottery Pick. Video’s after the jump. Read the rest of this entry »

I never thought Twister was much of a game, and it’s probably because we don’t live in the 1950s, where sex was a sin and freebasing stuff in the garage was still gaining ground as an acceptable means of passing the time. But if I was in the 1950s, sexually frustrated, somewhat flexible, and surrounded by girls that would somehow subject themselves to my company outside of the influence of drugs or alcohol, then yeah, I would totally play Twister. –College Humor.

I have to say, these are some nifty moves by the person on the keyboard here. Look how deftly they make the ball appear to do improbable things en route to falling in some trash can or bin or something. What a wonderful feat of computer wizardry. And, yeah, the basketball stunts would be cool, if only they weren't patently fake. But, still WOW COMPUTERS!

This too clever by half introduction video for the Harvard Sailing Team is certainly worth, if not a full belly laugh, at least a few knowing titters. It almost makes you forget for a moment that Ivy Leaguers are generally horrible careerist assholes who use their alma mater as a self-defining quality and only associate with one another. Also, these particular Harvard kids enjoy sailing, which is totally out of character for the privileged. What's not to hate?

That tall bespectacled guy is a little prematurely bald, so he's probably not worthy of your complete contempt. Oh, who am I kidding? My real concern is about as convincing as the forced empathy these students are trying to feign in the video. I knew I shouldn't have made my application essay about eating the rich.

Note: Some helpful commenter pointed out the Harvard Sailing Team is a NYC-based comedy troupe. Eh, I stand by my contempt of the Ivies. Damn my state college-addled brain!
