Christopher Hitchens On The Waterboard



I disagree with Hitchens on lots of stuff but I am right with him on this one. Not only is this torture, but we are inflicting this on people who haven't been convicted of anything. What are the odds that this has been done to innocents by Americans?

Bicycle with dual miniature jet turbines



Now the question is where can I buy the turbines in this video? Looks cool and I can think of a couple other things I can put turbine engines on and see if that helps increase the speed.

Freestyle rollerblade skating



This kid is something. You should look how she rollerblades. The song also really matches the way she skates.

Use a 2-Liter Bottle as a 50 Watt Light Bulb lightbulb hack



You can get these kind of things in newer energy efficient homes, where glass domes on the roof collect light and reflect them down metalic tubes into the room, but making them out of a water bottle clearly works just as well for a fraction of the price.

Frank "Sugar Chile" Robinson



This kid is fabulous - watch the way he uses his fists and elbows to play this boogie woogie.

Eskiv

That's a surprisingly gripping little game, for about five minutes. The object is to hit the boxes (I tell you this because it actually took me a few goes to figure this out - I kept trying to catch the ball and then being unsure if I'd won or not) and avoid the balls. The more boxes you hit, the more balls there are, and the more complex that pattern you have to weave. Quick, badly coloured, no noise, fun.

Rumble Box

Rumble Box is a fast paced 3D action beat-em-up with a unique premise: all of the characters are made of simple objects which stay around in the level even after the character is defeated. You have to download the game to play (no online play option), but it is really addicting. Simple controls, and a fun premise, and it's absolutely free.

The White Stripes - The Hardest Button To Button



I totally agree, one of the best music videos ever, song ain't half bad either.

The Fountainhead in 5 Seconds



There aren't many things on Youtube that I think are very funny. This is. If you've ever read the Fountainhead (or, God forbid, just seen the old movie) you will share in my amusement.

More censorship by the police



I wish we could have known the full story. Yes, cops do abuse their power (which is totally unacceptable), but something must have set them off here.

Lindy Hop Showdown



All that foot moving seems like a filler to me, the actual acrobats are what drives the crowd wild. Damned if I could do it though, props to them.

Wally takes on Evolution



Although I could write pages pointing out what a cunt this bloke is, I can`t be arsed and anyway he does a better job on his own. Proves yet again that Right Wing Yanks are a bunch of f`king tards. Plus we all know that Mr Wiggy fucks little kids coz `god told him to enjoy the sound of their hips cracking. The levels of what-the-fuckness is impossible to grasp. I love how he manages to get communism into it. This must be where O'Reilly gets his inspiration.

Contact juggling



I had a friend that could do that and whenever I tried I always dropped the damn thing. The crystal ballys they use arent cheap either.

Letters = Words



I don't just like it, I Really, Really like it-- I don't wanna use the L word.. ha! I truly enjoy Xelander's videos--humor, insight, just plain fun.

Crazy homeless guy in San Francisco scaring people



I saw this guy when I was there a few years ago, he's pretty cool.

Introducing the book



Kind of monty pythonesque take on IT help in the middle ages. Funny.
