Maybe it’s the excitement of Friday afternoon, but I started laughing before David Chappelle’s Block Party even got underway. Why? The announcer warning that it’s for "Matooor" audiences only. Bwahahaha.

It’s Monday. Back to school, back to work, and back to the library. Here’s a song about it, from an old episode of the many-universes sci-fi show “Sliders:”

It’s a weird parody of children’s programming. And it’s also a parody of Tom Cruise. And it’s also just bizarre. It’s… Planet Unicorn! See all six episodes of fabulous unicorny entertainment!

Maybe it’s the lack of subtitles, and maybe it’s the game-show convention from the other side of the world I just don’t get, but Japanese game shows are nothing short of mind-boggling to me. In this one, there don’t even seem to be any prizes: It’s just about being bitten by snakes. I’m guessing they’re not poisonous, but still: Snakebite to the nose! For entertainment!

Not many people in the world can swim 2.4 miles in open sea, much less follow that swim with a 115-mile bike ride and a 26.2 mile run. People who can do it while also checking and adjusting their blood glucose levels manually are a very select breed: This year, there are ten of them. Yes, ten diabetic endurance athletes will be pushing the boundaries of personal ability and diabetes research at the Iron Man triathlon. They’ll be inspiring people all over the world. And they’re going to be in a movie, too. How awesome is this?

I watch a lot of bad videos while looking for brilliant ones. This is one of the bizarre gems I just can’t ignore. Yes, it’s from Cute Overload. Other people seem to think it’s adorable, but all I can think is “How hard is it to get moose-crap out of a shag carpet?”

The voices and pacing aren’t quite right, but the concept for HungryManTV’s “Strange Detective Tales” is gold: Washed-up monsters who couldn’t make it as movie stars, living in the shadows in Los Angeles. Igor and Renfield are private detectives, hired by a mermaid to find her missing werewolf husband, who wants to become a rock singer. Obviously.
I could see this getting picked up by the Cartoon Network; depending on whether it gets dirty and violent or not, it could play in the Adult Swim block or the youth block. I like it.

I found this incredible surf video on Oddee. It shows someone surfing what is less a wave and more of a biannual river phenomenon: The Atlantic rushes up the Amazon river for miles, carrying away trees, animals, houses, and the occasional foolhardy or intrepid surfer. Dangerous? Of course! Awesome? Definitely.

If only certain grownups would listen to this sound advice, we’d have a hell of a lot fewer problems.

Inflation and the housing crisis got you down? Don’t worry, you’ll always have something to eat as long as you know how to noodle a catfish.
