This is the best spoof website I’ve ever seen. Kudos to the guy/guys who put this together. If their looking for work they won’t be looking for long.

And on a personal note, that optical inch thing, not just an illusion. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge. Know what I mean?

Xbox 360 Standoff: I heard that this was shouted down because of the implied violence but it’s still a favorite around the Xbox office.

Have you ever had a telemarketer that was desperate to end a phone call with you? You will if you do this to them.

This guy may be a real amateur on the drums and piano, but he’s got game when it comes to video editing.

Okay, suppose you have a car catapult, fortuitously positioned near a large cliff, a few disposable cars and, lets see, what else? Oh yeah, some heavy artillery. Yeah, that sounds like a good afternoons fun.

My idea is to create a sporting cross between Mountaineering and Moving called Movaneering. Here’s how it works:
Just like traditional mountaineering - or whoosy man mountaineering as I like to call it now - this new sport is performed at high altitude, 5000 feet or more.
Here is an example of the sort of trail you might dig in a movaneering event. Note, the bottom step is exposed in this photo. There is still another 6 inches to go before reaching the ground. |
Mountaineers hike on trails. But a movaneer creates his/her own trail by digging in the snow and ice down to solid earth with a variety of shovels.
A mountaineer carries a backpack. A movaneer carries things like bookshelves and couches. Plus numerous boxes of books. And of course the movaneer always works solo. He carries everything all alone, over icy paths that he clears himself.
When a movaneer takes a rest he won’t just sit back and relax in front of a fire. No, a movaneer sits down at his computer and works.
A movaneer doesn’t slow down when he suffers an injury. Whether it be broken toes or a sprained wrist a movaneer just grits his teeth and mushes on.
The main thing that mountaineering has in common with movaneering is the goal of accomplishment. In mountaineering the goal is to climb to a summit and return. In movaneering the goal is to unload the UHaul truck.
If you’re up to the challenge and would like to become a movaneer, then I suggest doing lots of abdominal exercises to prevent injuring your back. You should train by lifting the furniture in your house, by yourself, and moving it around. Eventually you can work yourself up to where you can carry a couch solo over an icy incline.
I’m talking to ESPN about adding this to the Winter X Games. I’ll keep you posted on how the negotiations go.

This is hands down one of the coolest . . . what the hell would you call this? I dunno. Anyway, brilliant work.

You think they could do the whole movie this way? Okay, that might get a little old after a while but still.

What a wicked stunt.
I used to be a model - nude - for the NAU art department. I know what it’s like to remain motionless for long periods of time and it is not easy.

This is like the encyclopedia of sarcasm.
Here a few must reads on the site:
I could go on and on but I think you’re probably capable of clicking on your own hyperlinks.
