Hockey + Coldplay = Filmmaking Brilliance Fancy Tickling, Hot Shit, Life, Sporting | View Comments
This guy must be the coolest person ever, and, in the process, he's created what must easily be the greatest time-lapsed documentary on building an ice rink in your backyard set to Coldplay's "Clocks" ever produced. In all seriousness, though, this is amazing...for some reason: Every year I enjoy making this rink in my backyard to play hockey on. This year I thought it would be a neat idea to make a time lapse of the process of getting the rink put together. While starting to play hockey in kindergarten I would always use the pool in my ...

Michael Ian Black’s Thoughts on the Conan O’Brien Situation Fancy Tickling, Life, Websites that are Better than Mine | View Comments
In a post on his blog entitled "Norma Rae", Michael Ian Black jumps into the discussion surrounding the Conan stituation but sees it from a different angle than most others have, and I kind of find it refreshing - well, at least a lot more refreshing than the jokes he makes on VH1's "Top 25 Sexiest Videos of the 2000's," which is just about the only place you see him these days:* "How did a Harvard-educated, multi-millionaire late night talk show host magically transmogrify into a guy who got laid off at the local car plant? The overreaction to Conan’s departure has been ...

Kids Reenact MTV’s “Jersey Shore” Fancy Tickling, Funny, Life, Videos | View Comments
I don't know if it's humanly possible, but this video might even be better than the show itself: Obviously, I'm kidding...nothing is better than the show itself. Well, maybe like "Citizen Kane" or something like that, but you'd have to put up pretty much a perfect argument on Kane's behalf because this stuff is pure poetry. If you agree, I'd also recommend FUCK YEAH, JERSEY SHORE and then proceed to say goodbye to a solid hour of your life.

Popeye: Drug-Taker From The Awl: The Associated Press NEW YORK Popeye finally came clean Monday, admitting he used spinach when he delivered a savage and unlikely beating to romantic rival Bluto in 1998.
