A nice David Blaine street magic spoof (and proof that he hides cards in people’s asses).

Just In From the Mint

Monday, July 21st, 2008

To those of you that haven’t heard, last week John McCain initiated another, somewhat questionable fundraising strategy. McCain sent all of his supporters a $1 bill in the mail along with almost laughable plea for money, asking the people he spams with falsehoods about his rival to “return this dollar with a hundred more of [their] own for a total contribution of $101.”

First of all, Yeah right– I’m keeping that dollar if you send it to me. Secondly, we here at Blogadilla feel that McCain is more deserving of a bill of a different amount:

To Everyone Offended by the Obama New Yorker Cover

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

If you were one of the many who was outraged at the New Yorker for their recent cover with Barack and Michelle Obama, check out David Horsey’s spoof McCain National Review cover.  The sad thing, though, is that the stuff about McCain is actually true and not just satire like with the Obamas!

Back and Forth, Forever

))<>((

This obscure emoticon ))<>(( just may be the funniest thing out there, ever. And I’ve made it my new life’s goal to tell everyone about it.

In short, Allison sees this ThreadPit t-shirt and says:
“I know where this is from, you have to see the movie!”

And she shows me the video clip from “Me and You and Everyone We Know” and it all made sense and I was laughing so hard I peed (NSFW):

Spread the word.
Back and forth, forever.

Number Two for Number One

Sunday, June 29th, 2008

First American president George Washington has a phallic national monument, a post, a state, a Sweat-Hog, and a Denzel named after him.

Current president George W. Bush may soon receive an equally appropriate honor:

The Presidential Memorial Commission of San Francisco is proposing a vote for this November’s ballot - to rename San Francisco’s “Oceanside Water Pollution Control Plant” the “George W. Bush Sewage Plant.”

God Bless America.

Rejected Olympic Mascots

Sunday, June 29th, 2008

Though China has five Olympic mascots (”The Fuwa”), several others never made it past the drawing board.

A Blogadilla exclusive: rejected Chinese Olympic mascots.

Maomao - Lil’ Mao Zedong.

Melmel - The Melamine Cat.

I take pleasure in knowing that I’d be shot for doing this if I lived in China.

War, Inc.

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

The movie War, Inc. finally came to a theater in my neighborhood.

Two words: “kick” and “ass.”

I loved it.

Brand Hauser (John Cusak) is an assassin on a mission in the war-torn mythle-eastern nation of Turaqistan. Hauser is posing as the producer of an arms convention, promoting Tamerlane military industries - the very corporation currently occupying the nation of Turaqistan. At the convention, Hauser meets journalist Natalie Hegalhuzen (Marisa Tomei) and obnoxious middle eastern pop star Yonica Babyyeah (Hilary Duff) . . . and all hell breaks loose in this Douglas Coupland-esque world.

War, Inc. has several of the best qualities of Cusak’s previous assassin dark comedy Grosse Pointe Blank - clever dialogue, a great soundtrack (that does not yet exist on iTunes, dammit), and several stellar fight/action scenes worthy of Martin Blank. This film also smelled heavily of Douglas Coupland and Naomi Klein’s “Baghdad Year Zero” (both of which are good smells).

Wallpaper of the Week

An image from Rika Eguchi’s “How to Cook Docomodake exhibit. Docomodake is a cartoony mushroom corporate icon for Japanese cellular phone company NTT DoCoMo - sort of like the Japanese equivalent of the Pillsbury Doughboy. And like the Pillsbury Doughboy, people want to do mean things to it.

“Lucy, the Daughter of the Devil” (Loren Bouchard, H. Jon Benjamin) - perhaps one of the funniest shows ever to air on [adult swim]. Already done with its first season, and perhaps already done with its last season - it looks like [adult swim] may not pick “Lucy” up for a second season. Perhaps because it is a little too controversial at times: DJ Jesus (the second coming) and his love interest Lucy (the Daughter of the Devil) live the 20-something hipster life with their friend Judas, while Lucy’s father makes regular attempts to overtake the world. Plus a never-ending supply of priest jokes.

The credits of “Lucy, the Daughter of the Devil” are funnier than an entire season of “Family Guy.”

Your Mom Has No Head

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

Over a decade ago, I was a substitute elementary school teacher (and later a full-time junior high Spanish teacher).

Scene: I’m in charge of a roomfull of first-graders for the entire day. A tiny girl comes up to my desk, big smile on her face, and she hands me a piece of construction paper.

Me: What is it?

Tiny Girl: It’s a picture for you.

Me: Who is it?

Tiny Girl: It’s your mom . . . AND SHE HAS NO HEAD!!!
[girl begins giggling uncontrollably]

Me: Ah. Thank You. It’s lovely. How did you know my mom looks just like this?

I kept it on my fridge for over a year.

Meatcake

Thursday, April 24th, 2008

[Note: this is a post from Rebecca, but she's too busy shepherding right now and asked me to post it for her.]

A birthday party last weekend.
The bakery was closed, but the deli was open = meat birthday cake.
Some vegetarians were offended.
That made it funnier.

Make a wish and blow out the olives.

Great Seller, Would Buy From Them Again

The best humor is often found where you least expect it (except for Patch Adams, who wasn’t funny and can suck it).

“inflatable doll? Use helium? You, my friend, have revolutionized my sex-life!”

“Q—if one were to’INSERT’ this adult Xmas tree ornament—and if it happend to break—would that person be entitled to a refund once they’re released from hospital?”
