Let’s Help Conan…
…by creating a YouTube video and trying to get a billion views. Good friend Steve Delahoyde passed this on with the simple request of posting it to get a billion views. I still haven’t done the math to see how a billion views is going to get Conan saved – but at this [...]
Hey WGN Morning News…
It’s not news to just spend 30 minutes every morning to find a half-dozen YouTube clips, and play them on the air.
That’s what WE do. You don’t see us spending money on investigative journalism, do you? Or sending video cameras to various spots around the city when flashing lights appear?
Didn’t think so…
So let’s [...]
Because Transformers may be cool…
…but people DRESSED as REAL transforming robots is even cooler.
Seriously cooler.
Because babies acting as adults are funny…
Who doesn’t remember this one? I just posted this because this is waaaaay funnier than “Land of the Lost.”
Good Cop, Baby Cop from Will Ferrell
Adam told me Sandy hadn’t seen this one yet…
Afro Ninja. Apparently, there’s a show on Comedy Central called “Tosh 2.0″ in which the guy does follow-ups with these internet stars. This dude, although kinda douchey here, is in reality, a licensed stuntman. So don’t worry, go ahead and laugh, he’s gotten over it by now.
Lazy Sunday
Where were you when someone first sent this around? Remember the hulabaloo around NBC when this went up on YouTube – and everyone got pissed? Those were the days… Before Hulu….
All Ur Base R Belong To Us
Class is in session. As part of your “internet meme” education…
The story behind the meme:
You Should Have Seen This…
I was surprised by how many people had not seen the original video for “Boom! Goes the dynamite” and that got me wondering – what else have you people not seen???
So, as part of a Public Service – I now present “Pork Chop Sandwiches” – a video as ageless as YouTube itself.
Dreaming it for 100 Years
We have an exclusive here folks. In Chicago, it used to be Michael Jordan, deep dish and Al Capone. Now in 2008, we add Walter E. Smithe to the roster. Their commercials are one-of-a-kind and have become the new standard for local television ads. The best part? They are usually timely. As is the case [...]
One of the Best Shows You’re Not Watching.
I’m hard up for TV, and these are the doldrum months when you start to take chances. I’ll admit – Adam brought it to my attention first – and I shot him down. I’m the screw-up. Saw a couple episodes of the first season, and couldn’t find the groove. Yet, for [...]
World’s Deadliest Buick
That’s right, the very friendly-looking Buick Rendezvous was listed by Forbes as the world’s most dangerous vehicle. Upside — I don’t think anybody’s bought the Buick Rendezvous. So, there’s that.
FREE! FREE! FREE!
Kate’s talked about ‘em. I’ve watched it. People I barely know hum their songs while walking down the street. I’m talking about Flight of the Conchords. If you haven’t seen it yet – shut down your computer right now. Walk into your boss’ office, tell him/her that you aren’t feeling too well, get in your [...]
How to open a bottle of wine without a corkscrew
I’ve done it twice now, and it’s a huge pain in the ass. The other night, our corkscrew just snapped in half. Whatever. Refusing to simply go to 7-11 to get a new corkscrew or to even head outside to the car to grab my Leatherman, I embarked on a Man vs. [...]
I think white is bad… but I KNOW pink is worse!
If you haven’t left yet… You’re not going anywhere….
Hey Yo! New Feature on Schad.net!
We’re always trying to make life more fun for you here at Schad.net. This weekend, we went into the labs, poked the monkeys, and got them banging on the keyboards. About 19 hours later, they came up with “Avatars” on post comments!
What does this mean for you? Well, not only do you [...]
Memo to Young Investigative Reporters
Random thought: is Wite out huffing down because no one uses white-out anymore? Remember when you would put wite out in a ziploc bag and inhale? Is that obsolete thanks to computers? Inquiring minds and maybe TV news viewers want to know!
