Jonathan Coulton

This guy is AMAZING. He's an unsigned singer-songwriter out of New York and pretty much everything he does rocks. It's either catchy as hell, funny as hell, or both. If you have iTunes, you can subscribe to his podcast and get his Thing of the Week, a weekly song released every Friday. There's also a bunch of other songs for sale/download on his site, so please go check it out. I highly recommend "Code Monkey" and his awesome cover of Sir Mix-A-Lot's "Baby Got Back". If you don't have iTunes, let me know and I'll personally send you the songs.

Green Jelly - Three Little Pigs (Original)
Green Jelly - Three Little Pigs (NOT Original)

This is one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time. It also made me go "WTF?" It'll be super funny for you too... if you have the patience to get through it. First, watch the "original". It's a music video for the song "Three Little Pigs" by Green Jelly. Swear to God, this song actually got airplay on MTV. If you can make it through the first (heck, even if you can't), follow it up with the second video. You'll laugh your ass off, guaranteed.

These are pretty freaky. What sort of kid grows up saying, "when I get older, I want to make huge, creepy looking people"?

McSweeney's Internet Tendency: The Slow and Painful Collapse of a Relationship Over the Course of a Weeklong Vacation as Expressed by the Names Each Partner Gave Their Digital Photos Taken During Said Vacation.

This is freaking hilarious. I love McSweeney's.

Next time you go to the video store, skip over Lost in Translation. I'll save you $3.99 and sum it up in five words.
