Lions vs buffalo vs crocadile



A fascinating video of buffalos, lions and a crocodile fighting over one baby buffalo! I guess I'm not the only one that hoped that the baby buffalo eventually would be saved.

Mocha the hamster eats his first broccoli



Insanely cute video of a 13-day-old hamster eating his first broccoli.

Octupus Transformation



Crazy cammo. At first I wasn't sure if this was real, but it seems to be so. Very impressive.

Hypermotivation

This is an interesting page, it considers hedonism through a neurobiological line of inquiry. The question at the core of this article is, "What happens to the decision making structure of a rat when you throw its risk/reward way out of whack?" Answers and their meanings/implications are then generalized to humans.

Baltimore Cop vs Skater



Sheesh, another bad situation for all parties involved. There's bigger fish to fry than skaters.

Japanese kid plays Crazy Train on Ellen's show



And gets an awesome surprise at the end.

Chris Rock about Abortion

How To Be Normal



Oh yeah, got my copy on order! Good bye social awkwardness!

Michael Jackson - Ain't No sunshine



RIP Michael Jackson.

Drum set

A little wonky, a little slow, and terrible if you're dexterous enough to work a hi-hat with your pinkie while your thumb and forefinger do kick and snare. That said, i just killed serious time with it, so it's good for something.

Stop using Jesus as an excuse for being a narrow minded Bigot



I raise my beer mug in honor, because an amen doesn't apply here.

The Matrix



It's no longer time to wonder if it's true. It's time now, to do something.

Unity of Human Beings



It's sometimes hard to see the larger scheme, to realize the unity of all. Somehow, listening to and reading Krishnamurti helps to glance at what seems so far yet so real. At least for me...

"Chickenhawk" by Roy Zimmerman



Excellent song on the neo-conservative chickenhawks by Roy Zimmerman, also see Max Blumenthal's visit to the College Republican National Convention, where the GOP's next generation cheer on the war in Iraq, then make sorry excuses for why they can't serve.

Irish student hoaxes world's media with fake quote

A great story on the pitfalls of quick poor journalism as a student creates an experiment to test the news by adding a lie to a wikipedia page and then watching as even the Guardian prints it. Nick Davies wrote an exellent book on UK journalism in which he describes how staff are often under strong pressure to create articles quickly so fact checking goes out the window and often they copy PR (propaganda) press releases. This churning out of the same unchecked PR stories he calls churnalism. This is a good example of how bad it has become.

I hate people who steal the internet



This is why my wifi name is labeled "F**k off, get your own!"

Mall Goth



“And here, ladies and gentlemen, we have a mall goth in his natural habitat!”

Starfish hitler



I don't have words to describe the....well, it's Starfish Hitler... what the hell else can be said here...

Klaus Nomi



Klaus Nomi was a wonderful falsetto vocalist. He is missed and was ahead of his time. You definitely have to listen to his music!

Rent-A-Person



It is so amazing to be able to find someone you can just be yourself around, regardless of whether you are a lonely bathroom attendant or a neurotic shrink. Again... WHY do we allow our egos and our needy inner children to ruin what has the potential to be so beautiful?

Guerilla Gardener



This is not a video on gardening. This is a video on inspiration and motivation! Amazing! I mean I really like it anyway cause I'm into gardening but then to read that he's also blind? Blows me away!

Yo Gabba Gabba Magic Dance Hat Commercial



I truly hate Yo Gabba Gabba show but every time I see this commercial I think to myself I really want this hat. I want a magical hat that sole purpose is to make me dance. And it's weird, puffy and orange. AND comes with Run DMC looking glasses. What more could you ask for?

How Women Play The Kazoo



This is a video of a lady who got so bored that she turned to playing the kazoo for amusement. Unfortunately she hadn't quite grasped how to do it but it was still *way* impressive. Musically speaking.

Dog babysitter



A dog howls/sings to a crying human baby to soothe him. This is cute.

I Promise Never To Make Art Again



Usefull when someone posts you art and you just have no words to describe your feelings. Send the artist this postcard.

Forever Is Not Long Enough



Especially with you.

Talk about some powerful advertising



This Thai commerical from Pantene is beautiful because it tells a moving story about a deaf and mute girl who learns to play the violin against all odds.

Libertarian Paradise



I am going to attempt to inflame my libertarian colleagues with this video.

Jumping Cat Monastery in Myanmar



The monks taught cats to jump through hoops.

Advice from Stephen King



A great answer to a great question. Stephen King very briefly explains how to be a good writer.

Impersonations by Kevin Spacey



I've always thought of Kevin Spacey as a bit of a chameleon, but I had no idea about this side of him. He's a wicked mimic and he absolutely nails the mannerisms and idiosyncrasies of some cinematic legends.

Tourettes Parrot



The best parrot on the planet.

The Incredible Peeing Dog



That dog is obviously aware of his accomplishments.

Dwarfed Punk



Whoever compiled this did an incredible job timing the animation. Although... I am getting a little tired of Daft Punk. But that's okay.

Woodcocks



A video about woodcocks, a droll little bird and one of my all-time favorites.

Eurasian Woodcock



A nice little video featuring a woodcock.

Fox Sparrow and a Surprise



A fox sparrow encountering a woodcock.

Train crash test

4 Year Old Bee Whisperer



My hero.

Sensorama - Star Escalator



I will always love you, Sensorama.

Monkey Doodle



78-year-old surreal monkey animation.

Alan Watts - On Nothingness



"You Are Weird" is just another way of saying "I wish I was like you".

Charlie brown’s philosophical inquiries



Ahaha, I love this, probably because I spend way too much time wondering the same question.

Internet is killing romanticism



Are you kidding? I love mixtapes. Well, mixtape CDs. It was a way to get people to listen to the stuff I listen to without overwhelming them with so much selections (I burn data discs too, haha), so it was kind of a personal tradition to burn mixtape CDs for my friends periodically? ‘Sides, it’s a good way of keeping track of a) what I was up to then, and b) how my musical tastes have changed over the years.

I miss cassette tapes, though.

The Avenging Narwhal

avenging narwhal por Beepifier.
I think I've just solved all of my gift-finding problems for the next year and a half...

Einstein is back!



A robot with a very lifelike head that looks exactly like Albert Einstein.

I am a Jedi!



Haha, I thought this was real for a split second, cause I saw him on conan one night he was just off the wall insane.

A dog riding the bicycle



Smart dogs, I tell you. Smart dogs.

Big box and Maru



This is great, I find it strangely fascinating and hypnotic.

Magnum v. Solo, sequence comparison



I gotta give it up for this, I'll never be able to watch Magnum PI again without thinking of this.

Baby sloths



Sloths are freaking adorable. Look at their two toes! Look at them opening their eyes from a 36 hour nap!

That is one big turtle



Really, what is the leash gonna do for you?

Wheelchair metalhead crowd surfing

Crack The CIA



The CIA distributing drugs into the ghettos of Los Angeles as America spends BILLIONS on the drug war. Why? Though I know of Mike Ruppert, I did not know he was a former Los Angeles Police Department narcotics detective.

Space cat



Laika’s best friend.

Nobody likes an old legless cat


:(

Mad Cat

Depression



But you can't be sad when you have a moustache! I think that it's physically impossible. Okay, so maybe I'm the one that's smiling when I see a moustache and maybe you're sad that birds continually try to nest in it.

Are you a loser?

Bon Iver - For Emma (a capella)



(via renmero).


One of my friends has this on a shirt, which I have attempted to steal from her on multiple occasions.

Badger vs Fox. Badger wins easily.



Badgers are fucking hard. Let no one question that fact. I would like an entourage made up purely from enraged badgers. 15 badgers versus a brown bear. Who would win? Youtube can usually settle important arguments such as this but not this time.

Surfing yemeni-style



Yes, I have been trekking barefoot through goat shit all day. Why do you ask?

The Danish Poet



A great animated movie about a Danish poet and how he, among other people, affected the narrator's life.

3 Year Old Solves Rubik's Cube in 114 seconds



By 3 asian kids are learning to complete rubix cubes. By 3 Americans are learning to stop crapping themselves... That's not right.

Tony Jaa



Tony Jaa is the new talent to replace the former kings of the likes of Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Donnie Yen, and Sammo Hung. Can't wait to see more of his movies!

Walmart Intercom: 9/11 Truth



9/11 conspiracy theories + fucking with Wal-Mart = EPIC WIN.

Ryu trains



Ryu putting the beat down on some ducks. Rather awesome.

Scientology and the Clearwater Police



The government may be limited in what they can do to a religious group, but surely they can step in against an obviously corrupt police force. We're winning, though. $cientology is fast becoming the laughing stock of the world. We're going to need some serious Hubdroid reprogramming.

Shadows



A very nice animated short film. Surreal, peaceful dark, dreamlike. Silent hill without any explicit horror.

Drunk Squirrel



Squirrels are cute and silly. Drunk squirrels go off the scale.

Chris Rock - Beat by the Police



Pretty funny, even if it was watermarked by some scumbag site. Chris Rock can be hilarious at times.

Hayley Westenra - Ave Maria



One of the most beautiful natural voices I have ever heard. Ever. I have heard Hayley sing before, but never as heavenly as this. Truly unbelievable. Do yourself a favor and please take the time out to listen to this amazingly gifted nightengale.

Cat refuses to exercise



Am I the only one who thinks they got the cat (and themselves) high before this? It would explain so much. This is fantastic.

Inconceivable nature of nature



The content of Feynman's explanation of spectrum and sensors is as beautiful as the form of his happy delivery. You can really feel how smitten he is by the reality of fundamental physics.

Jokers are better teachers than priests



Eidolon again, defending himself masterfully from the charge that he's become priest-like himself.

Hunting wolves with falcons



In western Mongolia, an ancient tradition of hunting with Golden Eagles is still alive.

The Astounding World of the Future



Hysterical and about 75% accurate. The 1950's lied to us big time.

How to get up, eat breakfast and get ready for work in 5 min



How to get up, eat breakfast and get ready for work in 5 minutes! I have actually used the way to put on jacket, and before this video I thought I was original with it... But this guy has lots of cool things.
