Calvin Coolidge: Mummy Slayer!
In the spirit of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter comes this spirited, low-budget parody trailer starring no one ‘s favorite president, Calvin Coolidge. “Keep Cool with Coolidge,” as Abe Simpson once said. Especially if there are mummies around! Made by The Sketchersons.
This is also a good time to tell everyone that my car is likely dead after a freak ‘check oil light’ catastrophe yesterday afternoon. Sooooo…I’m probably going to be worried about that for the foreseeable future. But I’ll try to keep posting fun stuff if I can.
The Best Game of Thrones Trailer Since the Real Ones
I am a definite Game of Thrones TV show fan. I’d probably talk about the show more on this blog, but I’d be too afraid of spoiling even a second of this awesome program! If you can watch it, definitely watch it. This fun mash-up trailer takes two characters from the show and positions them as stars of a romantic comedy. It’s a neat little bit of Internet trickery, and I wish I had the talent to make something like this. The video by twinvortex is a little choppy, but don’t hold that against them. It’s fun!
Also, how awesome was the Season 2 finale and cliffhanger!?
Thanks to Topless Robot for the find.
Bath Salts Make Your Face Look Tasty
As regular readers might know, I work at a daily newspaper writing about crimes and criminals. And just like that face-eating guy down in Florida, we’ve had our fair share of bath salts-related incidents here in Upstate NY. There have been a few this year, but the freakiest by far was last week. This woman came out of her house choking her kid, fell down some stairs, stripped naked, ran around growling at people, choked her pit bull, fell down the stairs again and then tried to bite the cops.
Pepper spray had no effect on her, but she was able to be hand-cuffed when she was Tasered. Unfortuantely, she’d been having some heart conditions and later died of some kind of heart attack. The whole thing is still under investigation, but you can read the story I wrote about it here.
Meanwhile, speaking of people writing things about crazy bath salts, here is a rap by mc chris called ‘Tasty Face’!
Uh, hopefully this wasn’t in too poor of taste.
