Do Not Attempt to Adjust the Picture

Recently, I’ve spent more than my fair share of time turning away from the TV and looking towards the Web for entertainment.  Now, I know how horribly the sounds like a Web 2.0 cliche, but before you search for your proverbial mallet to whack my with first let me show you what it is I’ve been watching.

Cinemassacre Productions

Cinemassacre.com Web Videos

I got my first taste of the awesome content that Cinemassacre delivers by finding (and then later watching) a few episodes of the Angry Video Game Nerd.  By far, it is probably my favorite series from the web site – but some of the miscellaneous content like Board James and You Know Whats Bull Sh*t is just as funny and entertaining to watch.

Be sure to watch…

ScrewAttack

ScrewAttack.com Web Videos

How could a web site named after the famous Metroid attack go wrong?  It can’t.  Looking at both new and old school games, ScrewAttack has your classic reviews, top ten lists and even submissions from their fans that make it onto the site.  If you’ve grown up as an 80’s child, and still have a love for both new and old games – this site is definitely one worth checking out.

Be sure to watch…

That Guy with Glasses

ThatGuyWithGlasses.com Web Videos

This is the most recent one I have stumbled upon and started watching.  Once again, we kind of go to all of our loves of watching something old, with the most popular series from the site being the Nostalgia Critic.  The entire web sit though is filled with videos that are well thought out, well produced and will leave you wanting to watch more.

Be sure to watch…

Might also be a good idea for me to point out that not all of these are family friendly “G” rated entertainment, so please keep that in mind.

John Hodgman Calls Obama a Nerd

Who knew C-SPAN could be so fun?  Daily Show correspondent and everybody’s favorite PC (from the Apple PC vs Mac ads) John Hodgman spoke at the 65th annual Radio & Television Correspondents’ Association Dinner with a really entertaining thesis on why Obama might be the first nerd president.

Got to love Obama’s Spock-ish calm, don’t you?

Superman is Such a Jerk!

Poor Jimmy...Who knew Superman was such a big jerk?  Thanks to Superdickery, now I do.  This collection of classic comic book covers has tons of entertainment value. 

Here are a few of my other favorites I have stumbled across:

It is crazy to look back at some of these and wonder what exactly they were thinking when they came up with these covers.  Of course, the commentary from Superdickery just makes it even better. 

Now one of my favorite places to kill time, I salute you Superdickery.com in all your oddness.

Pull My Finger… Online!

I am all about finding the geek candy out there on the Web here on Mitchelaneous, and there is nothing more delicious than a web site dedicated to pulling my finger… or your finger… or a really big finger.

pull-my-finger

Point your browser towards MisterNiceHands.com and let the fun begin.  What is the point?  To make farting noises.  Yes, that is it.  With all the complex services and Web 2.0 sites out there, isn’t it nice to know that some sites still celebrate the oddity that made the Web great in the first place? 

For more sound effect fun, be sure to check out supersoundboard.com.

Instant Drama Sound Effect

I’ve talked in the past about two of my favorite instant sound effect web sites, InstantRimshot.com and SadTrombone.com.  However, did you know there are more of these popping up? 

The Drama Button!

My new favorite web site, when you need that instant sound effect action is DramaButton.com.  Once pushed, you get that duh duh DUHHHH that has always been a favorite for the old dramatic moments on your favorite old TV shows and movies. 

Load up the web site, say these phrases out loud and then hit the button to test it out.

I’m sorry John, but your baby is really… a robot! (hit button)

I am afraid John, your wife has amnesia and she is… a robot! (hit button)

Yes John, you are fired.  Your new replacement will be… a robot! (hit button)

I could keep going, but you get the effect, the sound effect that is, over at DramaButton.com.

MSNBC = Disaster TV?

Some people out there watch disaster movies, just to see the panic, destruction and frankly, watching stuff blow up.  I have a feeling that MSNBC fans are of the same ilk.

Here is some of their Democratic National Convention coverage:

Web of Pain – Comic for the Web Dev Geeks

It is not often you can mix funny with web hosting.  Thanks to the latest issues of Ping!
