Stephen Colbert mocks the Bill O Reilly freaking out video
Good stuff:
You can find the original video of Bill O Reilly freaking out here
THAT ‘Have I Got News For You’ episode
The Angus Deyton episode. One of the lads reminded me of this. Its impressive that it takes 2.30 minutes to get into it:

Ze Frank at a TED conference
Having finished the bulk of my exams I’m taking a few days off, I plan on spending today watching TED conference videos and pro wrestling. I imagine Cian would find this video good for a laugh somehow:
Where in the world is Osama Bin Laden?
I love the title of this movie, from the director of ‘Super Size Me’.. Watching this is certainly better than trying to study for my exam tomorrow, for which I don’t know what to do as my lecturer is the worst I’ve managed to have in the three years of my college career. Anyway, enjoy the clips & I love that the trailer has Gogol Bordello’s ‘Wanderlust King’ as the soundtrack:
Stephen Colbert at the White House dinner
I remember this video as being one of the first times I was ever exposed to politics in a meaningful sense. While its probably an odd thing to say, this was one of the first times that politics became ‘real’ for me and remains one of the best ‘take-downs’ of the Bush Administration I have seen. What’s impressive (and kind of horrifying) is that a large number of the comments made by Colbert still apply…
‘Grindhouse’ - possibly the best cinema experience?
As I’ve already talked about a bit, I went to see ‘Grindhouse’ last night. Now I know the film didn’t do brilliantly as a double feature, but the only thing that proves is that people are fucking idiots. I cannot remember the last time I was at a movie where the audience burst into applause at various points during the films. Now personally I can’t recommend both films enough, though ‘Planet Terror’ is clearly the better of the two and you really need to watch the whole thing as the single film experience, and preferably in the cinema to get the full value of it. There are a few things that I should mention though:
Apparently you don’t actually need to be, you know, capable of having sex to commit sexual harassment
This is insane:
Randy Castro was not apprehended until he was six, so who knows how long his reign of sexual terror lasted? Sixteen months ago, a school official in Texas accused a four-year-old of sexual harassment after the boy was observed pressing his face into the breasts of a teacher’s aide when he hugged her before boarding the school bus. Fortunately, the school took decisive action and suspended the sick freak. By the way, is that the first recorded use in the history of the English language of the phrase “accused a four-year-old of sexual harassment”? Well, it won’t be the last: In the state of Maryland last year, 16 kindergartners were suspended for sexual harassment, as were three pre-schoolers.
Man, that’s crazy… I mean, how can you commit sexual harassment if your not in any way, capable of being sexualy aroused. And are at such an age where such a concept doesn’t exist?
So d’ya know the way that the U.S., Canada and Mexico are actually the one country and are run by the overlords?
I love paranoia:
