2008 US Election Results Revealed
Gotta love The Onion xDDD. This clip from the Onion News Network mocks the ‘fickle nature’ of the Diebold electronic voting system. Had to post this cos me, Biscotti and Digg Doug were discussing the Diebold issues in passing just a few days ago xD.
Diebold PR Spokesman: “This country is based on the fantasy that the government is the voice of the people; going through the motions of voting and, uh, keeping the Kingmaker’s dealings secret is central to our culture.”

We’re working, boss – honest.
My boss’s boss played this old FedEx Cup ad at the start of a presentation he gave the other day – I reckon it’s a classic and worth posting xD. The utter sincerity of the workers and their boss’s dry, unruffled manner totally sells the gag xD.
There’s another great FedEx Cup ad along a similar vein at this link.

200 comics in under 12 hours
This dude drew 200 three panel strips in under 12 hours – crazy xD. They’re off the cuff and often hilarious; the humour reminds me of Jack Handey (the “Deep Thoughts” guy)’s schtick and – as my mate Biscotti pointed out – Mitch Hedberg’s non-sequitur style.
Britain’s Got Jackson
Jackson routines and impersonators are a dime a dozen (Fall Out Boy’s “Beat It” cover, anyone? xD) and this one (seen here on “Britain’s Got Talent”) starts off like any other (with a fresh remix that incorporates Billy Jean, Queen and Bhangra… o_O) but the surprise development halfway through, and the reaction of the judges and the crowd, is classic! xDDD
(Here’s another version of the routine from the Birmingham NEC – you can see a version of the whole dance without all the audience cutaways…)
