Where the hell is that dancing guy?

WheretheHellisMatt.com is a pretty entertaining lil' website. So this guy Matt becomes an internet phenomenon by dancing in different places 'round the world and then gets sponsored by chewing gum company to do it some more. Neat huh? Check out his blog about his travels. It's a look into the quirky mind of a charming geek.

Shinji-San in the Land of Indeterminate Duration

A friend introduced me to this early Flash cartoon based on Buddhist principals. It was made in 1999. How far we've come from this primitive style! Still... every now and then I need to go back and watch. The story is bizarre (but you must have noticed I like that kind of thing by now). The soundtrack is really great, too.

"Sieg Miaow"?

"Does your cat look like Adolf Hitler? Do you wake up in a cold sweat every night wondering if he's going to up and invade Poland? Does he keep putting his right paw in the air while making a noise that sounds suspiciously like "Sieg Miaow"? If so, this is the website for you."

I couldn't have said it better myself. Why don't you take a look?

Schadenfreude

I'm sure you never laugh at other people. Ever.

So I'm sure you won't be laughing at the Craig's List users who write ads, rants, and raves worthy of the Best of Craigslist.com.

You'd never laugh at stories of overheard intercourse, insect infestations, miserable co-workers, etc. Nor would you snigger at the description of vintage orange armchairs written by someone who really should be writing for the Simpsons instead of selling off furniture from their front yard.

By far this is one of the unsung gems of the internet, possibly because of the text format. But honestly, I'm glad. Some of things described are things I'd never really want to see.

And if you're feeling up to it, why not write your own 2 cents and share it with the nation.

C'mon - visit the Best-of. I promise it'll keep you busy for at least ten minutes.



PS -

schadenfreude \SHOD-n-froy-duh\, noun:
A malicious satisfaction obtained from the misfortunes of others.

Engrish Locks!

Engrish refers to the grammatically incorrect variation of English often found in East Asian countries. While the term may refer to spoken English, it is more often used to describe written English, for which problems are easier to identify and publicize. Engrish has been found on everything from poorly translated signs, menus, and instruction manuals to bizarrely worded advertisements and strange t-shirt slogans.

Now that you know about Engrish, I'dlike to share one of my all-time favorite websites. You guessed it - Engrish.com. The site celebrates some of the funniest English phrases ever generated. Guaranteed to make you laugh.

Don't forget tostop by the Engrish.com store and take the experience to your own body. After all...

Obligation being Engrish Store visitation! Let's having joyful occassion- that is our wishness! Power spent to you in the world for shop need be!


(English Translation: Thanks for visiting the Engrish Store! We hope that you enjoy your shopping experience with us. The Engrish Store will do its best to serve you with your Engrish needs.)

Train Your Fish

Goldfish are supposed to have a three-second memory, right? Small animal, small brain, not much room for intellect. Certainly training one would be out of the question...

Nope.

You can train a gold fish to do all kinds of tricks. Other types of fish are readily trainable, too. Weird, huh?

Check out this gold fish trainer from Japan showing off his little synchronized swimmers:


Now you're ready to try it on your own finned pets, right? Get your fish into fish school. This website has everything you need to train your fishy friends to play soccer, do the limbo or eat from your hand.

More of the bookish type? Grab this out-of print book whenever you see it on eBay: How to Train Goldfish Using Dolphin Training Techniques. This book was written by a scientist who worked with dolphins. One day he got the brilliant idea to try his training techniques on fish - et voila - a book on fish training.

Naughty Bits Today

Seriously. If you are easily offended, you don't need to click the following link to the Official Pornstar Bears Website. Just forget about it. It's not good for you. I doubt there are any redeeming features about this site. I mean, gosh, is it even art?

If you think you can handle it without writing me hate mail, the fun is just beginning. Venture into the world of toys after dark. It's twisted, but entertaining. It's the Official Pornstar Bears Website. Don't miss the 'dress up' area - a great e-card opportunity.

My slug is my very best friend.

Nosepilot was one of the first Flash cartoons I ever saw. This breathtaking 7 minute piece may have been crafted when the art of Flash was still young, but it's still an impressive and entertaining diversion. You'll be humming the music for the rest of the day.

Find out what a curious cat, a slug and an animated robotic duck have in common >>

You're bored again, huh? I knew it. (Why else would you be here?)

Well now. You can keep yourself busy with Ultimate Flash Face. Basically you get to be an artist and draw people using pre-made facial features. There's lots of fun to be had here - draw yourself, your lover, your brother, someone famous, your dream date -or- go the other route and draw some creepy folks you would never want to meet.

My New Favorite Website

Take a peek inside the mind of NatalieDee - a cartoonist, artist and blogger extraordinare - as she copes with life, her husband Drew, knitting and 2 blog-worthy dogs named Charles and Chester.

If I drink milk whilst visiting Natalie's site, it's sure to come out my nose as I laugh.

A sample from Natalie's blog:

Hey, guys.

I just looked behind me, and saw my dog standing on the couch, with his paws on the wainscotting, CHEWING ON A PAINTING THAT IS HANGING ON THE WALL.

Fuck you, Charles. You're a maniac.

Special thanks to Kelly for the link!

J-list Serves Up Fresh Japanese Goods

If you hanker for a bit of Japan you can call your own, you may want to head on over to the J-List and pick something up. If you are a minor or you are easily offended by the pornish side of things, you may want to skip this one. (Although there is a porn-free area of the site for you should you choose to visit).

Among the highlights of this site are the Japanese adult toys such as the 'Breast Ball', the poop hat and 'Girl in a Cup.' For the not-so-naughty there's plenty of traditional Japanese items, clothing, magazines, anime, toys, DVDs, calendars... and s much more.

Get out your credit card and get shoppin'!

Everyone Loves Aussies

Hitchhiking is bad! Right? Wrong... at least for foreigners like these 2 Australians who decided to spend their holiday hitchhiking and blogging their way in 50 days across America - being sure to stop in the capital of every state. Such fun! My only complaint - they dissed my home state. But you don't know which state it is, do you?

Anyway once I picked up a pair of South African hitchhikers in my home state and probably drove them along the same stretch of road our Aussie bloggers took... fascinating, I know.

Well kids, "Drive fast & take chances" - that's what I always say.

Ninja Week - Day of the Ninja

Sadly, Ninja week is drawing to a close. Now that you've be saturated with so much ninjadom, you'll want to try out being a ninja, right? Though we missed it this year, I would like to point there is a way to be a ninja for a day - December 5th is Day of the Ninja. It's your big chance to go ninja crazy for a day... at the mall, at home, at work. Why they chose that date is beyond me... what with all the holiday bustle and such. But of course I can't really change it.

So here's how to get ready:
Day of the Ninja
Ask a Ninja Event Planning Wiki
Ask a Ninja 'Ninja Day' Episode

You have plenty of time to prepare to be a ninja for a day. You WILL be ready.

Ninja Week - Hungry?

Picture this: You're extremely rich and powerful and you are escaping the ho-hum world in some remote location... a location so remote they don't even have fast food. And then it hits you - cheeseburger craving. What do you do? Panic, right? WRONG! Call NINJA BURGER. Guaranteed delivery in 30 minutes or less or they commit seppuku. (If you've been following along all week, you'll know what seppuku means.)

Just mosey on over to the Ninja Burger website to see a menu, find out your ninja name, play Nin-Ja-Toe and if you ain't so rich and powerful I guess you could pick up and fill out a job application.
