Culture: In a world of bizarre porn parodies, this TMZ one takes the cake

  • Ron Jeremy as Harvey Levin. No, really. Obviously, we’re a safe for work site and we’re not linking to a porn site, but we’d be terrible at our job if we didn’t inform you of the existence of TMSlease, a parody of TMZ (and celebrity culture in general) which takes a look at gossip culture through porn. Ron Jeremy, by the way, does a great Harvey Levin parody. (The link leads to Gawker, BTW.) source

Politics, U.S.: Max Headroom special edition: Sarah Palin is f#(^ing crazy

  • The resignation video
  • Our analysis
    0:05-0:09 – Sarah Palin’s speech, already crazy, takes a turn about here, linking the military to freedom of speech.
    0:09-0:14 – Oh God, please don’t.
    0:23-0:51 – In your analysis of the press, could you be more bitingly cynical, Sarah?
    0:52-1:04 – She just killed whatever credibility she had left with the press.
    1:05-1:28 – Just don’t tell her crowd of supporters. They still love her.
    1:29-1:38 – Trust us. Ricky Hollywood doesn’t regret his moment in the sun. source

  • It doesn’t even matter what Arnold Schwartzenegger said in this video. We got the idea in the first second and a half. The governor of California, fresh off $26 billion in budget cuts, is brandishing a big knife. You said it all with your actions, man.source

Offbeat: Shepard Smith: Favorite car chase play-by-play dude EVAH!

  • “Caravan 5, spike strips nothing.” We have huge admiration for Shepard Smith, the one guy on Fox News who’s unafraid to tell it like it is. But man, we wonder to ourselves sometimes whether he should be calling baseball games instead of car chases. Because he’s so hilarious with his phrasing that you just want to give Shep a high-five.source

Offbeat, U.S.: When Obama isn’t busy saving the economy, he’s swatting flies

  • Obama has a huge problem. His new house is swarming with flies, and it’s pissing him off. “He chases them down in the Oval with his briefing papers to smack them,” notes Council of Economic Advisors member Austan Goolsbee. They’re trying to kill them, but they’re still floating around everywhere. We know man. They annoy us too.source

Culture: Zack Morris is responsible for Jimmy Fallon’s best moment so far

  • Ahhhh, we needed a Zack attack. There are many awesome things about this video, but the best part was that Mark-Paul Gosselaar came up with the freaking idea himself. Beautiful. We hope the “Saved by the Bell” reunion lives up to the hype.source
