I’ve stopped a quite few fights between guys but never fights between girls, not that I would anyway since those fights tend to be vicious yet potentially entertaining.
From what I’ve seen, the fights between females were usually about some guy. I’ve only heard that there are currently more females than males in the world, but I haven’t actually seen the data on that. But if it is true, then I suspect that we will be seeing more and more women intensely competing for the attention of even the barely adequate of males.
I found this video of the Bunny Boiler from a British television show called Balls of Steel:
I was never really a comic book guy, and the only exposure I had to superheroes was on television, specifically Super Friends. My favorite among them was the Green Lantern, which in retrospect was an odd choice considering his power came from jewelry and he’s powerless against the color yellow. I’m surprised the supervillains never thought of just running him down with a school bus or making him slip on a banana peal.
Anyway, I found this video mash up between Super Friends and one of my favorite scenes from Friends:
With Halloween right around the corner, it’s once again time to go shopping for candy.
It’s the only time of year that my wife and I buy candy so we try to buy ones that we would eat in case of leftovers. This means none of the following:
While on the topic of candy, here’s a video I found of a Pop Rocks commercial, showing other uses for their candy:
I had such a bad self-image growing up. I think it was partly because there were very few male Asian role models in the media at the time.
They were either martial artists like Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan, the nerdy types like Long Duk Dong (Sixteen Candles) and Toshiro Takachi (Revenge of the Nerds), or the wise old man like Mr. Miyagi (The Karate Kid). I was neither a martial artist, a nerd (I think), nor a wise, old man.
So I thought these videos of Bobby Lee from MADtv were totally hillarious:
I have to admit though that it was great that no one ever tried to pick a fight with me in school because they all thought I knew karate or kung fu. Suckers.
I’ve recently come to the realization that I watch too much television. Not so much that I find myself watching yet another installment of Real World, but just to the point that I watched an entire season of Big Brother 8. You know something is wrong when catch yourself watching other people live their lives who are secluded in a house. That should never be more interesting than your own life.
Anyway, here’s a video of Brian and Stewie from Family Guy at the 2007 Emmys paying homage to all of the garbage on the tube:
