To those who say Conan isn’t funny and never has been, we submit this clip, where he engages in a dance-off with Stephen Colbert (and later, Jon Stewart). Full of win.
Slate has this killer gallery of beards up today, and as you might suspect, Julius is getting a little jealous. See, robots can’t grow facial hair.

We’ve been avoiding Tiger as much as humanly possible this week because we’re sick of talking about him, but this clip above is a good reason to acknowledge his existence. Keep that rage in check, bro. The whole world is watching.
Whoever the genius is that created this needs to be given like a million dollars by Joss Whedon or something so he can sell this game. This is a brilliant idea. And hilarious.
2007: iPhone puree One of YouTube’s most classic and memorable clips came out just after the iPhone’s release, when a blender company threw an iPhone into one of its high-powered blenders and saw what happened. It was awesomely expensive.
2010: Ipad slushee The “Will it Blend?” dude, having had much more experience with the great gift of his, does the same thing to an iPad. Obviously an iPad is too big for one blender, so he violently breaks the thing in half first. Yet another classic.

Fake Steve Jobs • In an open letter to the people of the world regarding the iPad. In the letter, he describes the design process for the device, which involved engineers and designers having to work on a device inside a black box, and constant surveillance to make sure no info got leaked by employees. “It’s not easy to work at Apple,” he says, “But I think you’ll agree with me that it’s worth the trouble.” source
Hank Johnson, who beat Cynthia McKinney in 2006, literally suggests in this clip that if Guam gets too over-populated, the whole country will tip over and capsize. Which may in fact be the dumbest thing we’ve ever heard a politician say. The general he’s talking to at this congressional meeting has the perfect response to defuse that mind nugget: “We don’t anticipate that.” That was actually fairly effective. source
“Poke me again and I will write #@*& on your wall so obscene, your computer will cry!” This clip from SNL over the weekend has been getting lots of buzz for Andy Samberg’s reportedly pitch-perfect parody of Rahm Emanuel. And the completely awesome, buzz-defusing quips against Sarah Palin.
