Zeroes
I’m not usually a fan of parodies but I like this one xD. It helps if you’ve seen a certain series about people with strange powers.
The 4 short episodes are available through Youtube.
Matrix Ping Pong
An oldie but a classic xD I’m long overdue for a post so I had to pull this one out of the hat. I haven’t seen it for a while and I wanted to keep all the comedy clips I like linked somewhere so up it goes!

Jamie Foxx is a natural entertainer – as he proves with this little ‘poem’ he wrote xD. Warning: nsfw.

Garfield (without… Garfield)
It’s an oldie but I like it
. On Garfield Minus Garfield, the lazy orange cat is removed from all the Garfield strips and you’re left with an interesting and surprisingly readable depiction of Jon Arbuckle (to quote the site’s blurb) as “an isolated young everyman (who) fights a losing battle against loneliness”.

Play the World of World of Warcraft…
The Onion strikes again xD. Here’s an article about the new game “World of World of Warcraft” in which players can play as a person playing World of Warcraft xDDD.

Martin Scorcese’s original uncut Casino Street
On a forthcoming Blu-Ray release of Martin Scorcese’s “Casino” he’s included an early version of the movie from when it was originally titled: “Casino Street”. Apparently the version was shelved due to an outcry from parents loathe to see Sesame Street regulars Bert and Ernie in their first adult role.
The two regulars were devastated at the collapse of their long planned move into serious drama; Ernie was driven to alcohol and Bert’s very public suicide is a sad footnote to the story. Most people agree, however, that their talent in the roles far outshines that of De Niro and Pesci (in the commentary track, Scorcese tells how Ernie’s ‘head tapping’ ending to this scene was completely adlibbed and added a chilling menace that makes De Niro and Pesci’s version look like a family drama.)
Please Note: Extreme language – nsfw!

Human Tetris
I wish they had this when I was at school… instead of all those lovely bullrush games we used to play >_< (Thanks for the link CG!)

Robot mistaken for Human in dance routine
Not quite as unique or unheard of as the judges make out but Robert Muraine’s popping & locking is done extremely well and the dynamics of his routine keep the audience entertained
. An entertaining performance takes skill, drama and humour and he puts it all together nicely

Doctors recommend Levit(r)ol for your allergies
An ad parody featuring the hilarious Keegan-Michael Key of MADtv. The “50 Greatest Commercial Parodies of all Time” post from nerve.com has the best blurb so I’ll just rip that off wholesale:
“The “ask your doctor if *blank* is right for you” genre has been sent up a thousand times, but a few stand out, this one for its initial realism and subsequent devolution into madness. The weird doctor-patient power dynamic hasn’t been made any more comfortable by the raft of TV ads encouraging us to ask about particular medicines, a fact that this parody nails perfectly. And there’s just something about those gardening gloves — are we wrong in thinking this wouldn’t work without them?”
(If you like that, here’s another hilarious skit featuring Keegan-Michael Key.)
