This is a wonderful little video that explains the reasons for our economic problems.

Here are two fancy computer animated ads for a French AIDS Awareness campaign. If Disney made a movie about boobs and dicks, it would look something like these. I’m pretty sure this stuff is not safe for work unless you live in France, in which case I think viewing is required by law.

I don’t know how effective these ads are, but if nothing else they certainly are memorable. I don’t think I’ll ever forget seeing a naked woman piloting a giant condom fly inside a penis whale’s urethra.

“Girl”

“Boy”

Thanks to Black Metal Nick for finding this. Watching it was the greatest minute and a half of my life.

This is pure adorableness. Thanks to Kelly C. for bringing this to my attention.

This is one of those things we’d never ever have seen in the days before the internet. Are we as a society better off for it? That’s not for me to say. This is a question for our children. And our children’s children. And Screech’s children if he has any. I can’t remember if Lisa ever agreed to go out with him or not. It’s been so long since I’ve seen any episode of Saved By The Bell besides the stock market episode. I don’t know what the hell my deal is, but the last three times I’ve tried to watch Saved By The Bell I find myself watching a rerun of the episode that occurs really early in the series where they use their 1980s computer to invest in the stock market.

I should get the DVDs to avoid this problem.
