Rage Against the RNC: Acapella-Style

Austin Keenan — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 00:00:00 EDT

Sick of convention coverage? Too bad. That's pretty much all the internet has to offer this week, since the Republican National Convention is in full swing. If you're going to watch anything regarding the RNC, at least watch this video of Rage Against the Everything frontman, Zack de la Rocha, protesting in St. Paul. Our opinion of "Bulls on Parade" acapella? Priceless. Suck on the Machine, GOP.

When a free spirit (a.k.a. random nutjob) runs onto the field during a soccer game, the security guards take him down and school him. Seconds later, the players and spectators pour onto the field to show them how it's done. Who says soccer isn't a tough guy sport?

We're HUGE fans of CollegeHumor.com. To hear that they've actually managed to get their unruly asses on MTV is super-awesome, if not downright encouraging. Here's a video from Beet.tv featuring the masterminds behind this interweb monstrosity, explaining how they've managed to screw up worse than Chris Crocker.

It's a good bet that Zero Punctuation's Yahtzee will never acquire the extra gene needed to enjoy MMORPGs, but that doesn't mean people are going to stop recommending titles to try. This week is Eve Online, a space-oriented RPG that apparently contains no races beyond humanity, which should indicate its worth right there.

Awesome Dad Builds Awesome Treehouse

We can say without hyperbole that this treehouse a Wisconsin dad built for his kids is fifty thousand times better than your crummy apartment. For starters, it has electricity. How about your pad? Okay, well, it has two stories, glass windows and carpeting too. No flush toilets, but that's why God invented tree-top balconies.

LisaNova: Worst Break-Up Ever!

Austin Keenan — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 00:00:00 EDT

LisaNova recently graced us with her interpretation of the relationship between Sarah Palin and John McCain, and now she brings us a reenactment of what might possibly be the worst experience in all of dating history. Saying that this hasn't happened in our own personal lives would be flat-out lying. Don't lead us on, LisaNova!

Peter Hirschberg: The Web and TV Have a Sibling Rivalry

Austin Keenan — Fri, 05 Sep 2008 00:00:00 EDT

Online streaming video has exploded to become a powerful force in the media. With viral web series actually crossing over into broadcast television and emulating traditional TV programming, it's no wonder that Ted.com offers a clip of software engineer Peter Hirschberg talking about the competition between the two mediums. Ted.com says that Hirschberg "might just be the definitive voice on how new technology affects business and culture." That's enough to get us to listen, how about you?
