I want it that way

Back Street Boys China

Oh, viral video… you will be the future’s pet rock, but for now, keep it coming.

If you liked the Star Wars kid or Numa Numa, you’ll love two Chinese students rockin’ out to the Back Street Boys.

If you build it they will come. Hot on the heels of the video iPod release comes a new site called POVpod (definitely NSFW). It delivers point-of-view porn movies to play on your video iPod. Their instructions are simple:

  • Step 1 Download our Videos to your iPod through itunes 6
  • Step 2 Hold iPod at crotch level
  • Step 3 Watch our point-of-view (POV) video and feel like you’re there!

I’m counting the days until I see someone on the T with this.

Scouting “camel toads” at the pool

It’s a scan of a newspaper article that I’m not going to transcribe. Check it.

Jesus went all-in for you

Jesus Chips

There’s nothing that livens up a poker game than a good bit of old-fashioned proselytizin’. These are awesome.

I’m surprised that no one has made condoms with a picture of the Pope or the Virgin Mary on them.

Wedding toast by Katie Holmes’ former best friend

Cruise and Holmes

Also from McSweeney’s
A wedding toast by Katie Holmes’ former best friend
A bit:

And it’s just really great about Katie’s involvement with that Scientology thing. Hey, Katie, remember when we used to watch those dumb volcano commercials about it on TV? Huh? Well, um, we did. And it’s just so funny that you’re into something scientific, ’cause we were both, like, so bad at science. Remember that Bunsen burner incident in 10th-grade lab—so not my fault—and then you pretended to make out with that fetal pig? And now you’re totally into science.

“The Power” responds to Public Enemy

Fight The Power

Found on McSweeney’s…

A Letter from “The Power” to Public Enemy.
A snippet:

Honestly, guys, I want to end this thing. I’d love to have you up to the country house for a weekend if you have the time. (I know you do, Flavor Flavor! With the big clock and all!) So what’s it going to take? I’d be more than happy to call someone at the post office and get some more of your heroes on stamps. Who would we be talking about—Grandmaster Flashy? Eddy Murphy? M&M? I haven’t been keeping up with your whole scene so just let me know.

The rise and fall of a luck presser

Press Your Luck

This happened a long time ago, but this is the first I heard of it. There was a guy that video taped Press You Luck shows and found the pattern in the spin game. He got on the show and applied it, resulting in winnings over $100K. Here’s his story.

Another unfortunate logo

Goatse Shoes

This banner is for a shoe store in Manhattan, but it’s hard not to think of Goatse.
