Pimp My Horse! 7

All, Dogs Cats and Other Pets, Lighter side of life • Tags: , , , ,

Freddie W is a special effects artist and I follow his YouTube channel. Some videos are awesome! Others are so-so. This one is not one of his norms since his special effects are more along the lines of gaming, such as explosions and the like.

But this is too funny not to share. Make sure to watch it to the surprise “bass” ending…. Now excuse me while I go roll on the floor laughing some more. And just a heads-up here… this is one of those “so stupid it’s funny” videos. Do not expect award winning anything here. Just chill and go with the flow.

Heat Wave Melts Metal Newspaper Stand 5

All, Lighter side of life, News: US • Tags: , , , , ,

With the heat wave soaring into the three-digits across the country, this is no laughing matter. Power grids are pushed to their limit; many people live without any cooling system; and violent storms with 80-mph gusts toppled trees, cut power lines and killed six people in Virginia alone – also leaving millions of people without power to cool their homes.

Although the extreme heat in and of itself is nothing to scoff at, sometimes humor is all we have to make it through these historic temperatures. Showpaper magazine is a New York-based free bi-weekly print-only publication, which lists and promotes every all-ages & DIY show in the NYC / Tri-state area. They recently installed a melting newsstand in front of the bookstore Printed Matter as the summer heat begins to crank up.

There is nothing more memorable than a “mispelled” tattoo 13

All, Hodge Podge, Lighter side of life • Tags: , , ,

One thing about tattoos, there is no eraser. No “delete” or “back” key. No “control + z” (keyboard command for undo). A tattoo is not an etch-a-sketch… you cannot shake it and start over. Romney has the patent on that.

Before getting a tattoo with any text of any type, it is highly recommended that a spell check is completed before the needle hits the skin. Google it. Grammar check it. If you and/or the artist’s English is not very strong, write it down and find someone whose English IS strong – neighbor, friend, teacher, librarian, convenience store clerk – and double/triple check the hell out of it. Have the paper with the CORRECT text right there next to the artist. Tic off each letter as the artist progresses. An ounce of prevention is worth a forever-lasting misspelled tattoo. When it comes to lettering, cover-ups just don’t do very well.

10 Reasons to Ban Gay Marriage 24

Activism, All, She speaks... • Tags: , , , , , , , , ,

Here are the TOP TEN reasons to ban gay marriage (I hear David Letterman’s voice in my head when I read that… don’t you?). Number one….

1. Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.

2. Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

3. Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

RE/MAX Realtor Lists a Home for Sale as “Not Haunted” 13

All, Hodge Podge, Lighter side of life, News: International • Tags: , , , , , , , , , ,

RE/MAX agent Jake Palmer had been sitting on a listing for quite some time. Shortly after Christmas last year, an offer on the house was made and accepted, and the couple who currently owns the home packed their items in preparation to move out once the sale was closed upon. Shortly before the date that the sale was to be finalized, the buyer backed out and forfeited the offer, leaving the homeowners in a pickle.

The “Sold” banner had to be removed from the sale sign in the house’s yard, and any real estate agent will tell you how difficult it is to reintroduce a house to the market after it was considered sold. Potential buyers naturally presume something is wrong with the property. Haunted often crosses people’s minds. So the listing grew stale with little interest. Jake needed to do something soon with this house, so he became rather creative.

The Saturday Night Funnies 13

All, Dogs Cats and Other Pets, Funnies, Lighter side of life • Tags: , , , , , ,

It’s time to take a break from the news and everything else which tires one’s mind. Kick back and hopefully a couple of the funnies below will put a smile on your face and produce a chuckle or two. There are also a few “awwww’s” to warm your heart.

Clicking on any of the images will enlarge it to full size. Hit “back” button to return for the rest. Hmmm… good opportunity for a quick quiz…. When clicking on an image, do you prefer to have the enlarged image appear in the same tab, thus having to hit “back” to return? Or do you prefer when the image opens in a NEW tab? Just curious. When it comes to images, I prefer the same tab. But when it is a link to another article, I prefer a new tab. I am curious about your preference, though. Please leave me a comment. Thanks!

I Hate Mondays Funnies, Vol. II 21

All, Funnies, Lighter side of life • Tags: , , , , , , , , ,

Well, here we go. Another Monday, another work week. I really need to make the jump and start working for myself… then I will never have any Mondays since what I am planning to do I do not consider work – it’s fun!

Anyway, not quite there yet. So in the meantime, I still have the right to piss and moan that it’s Monday. And hope that the funnies here will help put a smile on your face if you’re hating Mondays, too. And even if you don’t hate Mondays. Funnies of all kinds. Stupid people, dogs, cats, cartoons, “groaners,” some political… a Motley – since that’s what this site is about. Motley = variety; diversity.

Wikipedia’s Lamest Edit Wars 6

All, Hodge Podge, Lighter side of life • Tags: , , , ,

I found this Wikipedia page to be very humorous – and many items debated really had some valid points. Basically, these are issues which been debated over and over again on what would be correct for that Wiki page. For example, the spelling for the chemical element sulfur… is it “sulfur” or “sulphur”? I checked, and they both come up, but “sulphur” points to “sulfur” so apparently the “f” spelling won out, but both spellings are recognized in the page.

Some People are Just NOT the Sharpest Knife in the Drawer 30

All, Lighter side of life • Tags: , , , , ,

Here are some Facebook FAILS that are too funny not to share. Even if you are not a Facebooker, you have to admit, some of these are pretty good. A few are due to not catching the phone’s spell-check before posting, but most are because the person posting is simply not the sharpest knife in the drawer. Their elevator doesn’t go to the top floor. The light’s on but no one’s home. A few screws short of a hardware store. About as sharp as a marble. Alright, that’s enough. Here they are….

Dog Grabs Video Camera and Films his Owners Trying to Catch Him 7

All, Dogs Cats and Other Pets, Lighter side of life • Tags: , , , , , , ,

This is too funny. When video recording their pet Spaniel, the owners set the camera down on the floor. Why, I have no clue. But their pooch decided that he wanted his shot at doing some filming and picks it up in his mouth. Fortunately, camera-dog managed to pick up the camera and hold it in just the right position so you see a forward shot of him running around the house playing keep away, and catch glimpses of humans attempting to catch camera-dog.

Le parfum d’un loup (The scent of a wolf) 4

All, Dogs Cats and Other Pets, Lighter side of life • Tags: , , , ,

A fellow Facebook friend posted this earlier today. He runs a wolf and wolf-hybrid rescue out on the east coast. I thought it was so funny that I had to share. In working with dog rescue, there are times I can completely identify.

LMAO…you know it might be time for a shower when you smell wolf and look around for one and realize..its you..!!!! I gotta find some water…lol!!!

Republicans, Get in my Vagina! 11

Activism, All, Political Humor • Tags: , , , , , , , , , ,

If you have not seen this video yet, it is very sarcastic and I love it! Going to the extreme to hopefully get the point across as this is how a large number of women are beginning to feel.

The actors Kate Beckinsale, Judy Greer and Andrea Savage have filmed a video for Funny or Die to speak for the millions of women who want Republicans to make decisions about their vaginas for them on issues like the availability of contraception and mandatory ultrasounds for pregnant women seeking abortions. “Way, way deep, up there in my vagina,” Greer says.

Here are a couple short commercial parodies about our countries favorite Presidential Candidate joke… Mitt Romney.

It’s Mittens Time

First, we have “It’s Mittens Time.” Rather than grab that Miller beer after a hard day of firing people, sit down with ol’ Mitt and enjoy a cold-hearted Mitten Beer, brought to you by Bain’s Brewing Company in Laid-off, Wisconsin:

The Swamp Cooler versus the Furnace 14

All, Hodge Podge • Tags: , , , ,

For those of you who live in a climate where swamp coolers are useless – be thankful. However, the desert southwest is not one of those areas. Born and raised in the midwest, I’d never heard of these beasts until I moved out here. The basic premise is water-cooled air by evaporation. Simple physics… air passes over water, water evaporates dropping the temperature of the air, and voila! The desert-version of A/C. When a home has a decent cooler, they’re not bad, especially when they function through the central air ducts. But some units just blast a wind tunnel of damp cool air out one duct right beneath it and sounds like a 747 landing in your house.

The Lie Among the Truths is Revealed 26

All, Hodge Podge, Lighter side of life, She speaks... • Tags: , , ,

Tuesday night, I jumped aboard the Hobbler game-wagon and joined in her fun “Lie to Me” posting. So I posted “Find the Lie in the List of Truths about Me” where I had to list seven odd or little-known facts about me, but one being a lie. Then you readers are to guess which one it the fib.

Boy, did I get those that participated! No one guessed correctly.

Find the Lie in the List of Truths about Me 23

All, Hodge Podge, Lighter side of life, She speaks... • Tags: , , ,

Okay, I am jumping aboard The Hobbler’s game “Lie to Me” where I must post 7 things about myself… six of which are true and one being a lie.

You are to determine which is the lie. Now some of you may recognize a few of the truths in my list since I have talked about them before – but that just eliminates a few truths. So you still have to figure out which is the lie.

In case you didn’t figure that out, “whiskey, tango and foxtrot” are from the NATO Alphabet, aka Spelling Alphabet, for WTF…
