Dog Pops Balloons, Round 2

GiggleSugar — Wed, 30 Jan 2008 09:00:00 -0800

Last week, we watched a dog have his way with a bunch of balloons- that is, pop 74 of 'em in a mere 57 seconds. According to reader Megatron, this strong performance is the norm in "the high stakes world of competitive canine balloon popping." But our friend below wanted to move beyond the upper limit and pop what no dog has popped before: 100 balloons in 77 seconds. . .

What Is It With Men And Balloons?

Remember the dork who crawled into a giant balloon? He's not alone. The following dude also likes to bounce around like a rubber ball on steroids. He even got what looks to be a knock-off Emmy award for it. Why are we rewarding these unresolved issues from the womb? If you ask me, these boys would better benefit from a good, hard bounce into therapy. Or maybe just a couple of girlfriends?

Thanks, Japan Probe!

Thinking Outside The Box Got Him Inside A Balloon

That's right. Remember the weirdo who attempted to crawl himself inside a giant balloon, but failed? Well, third time's a charm, and I'm happy to report that his success spared us the very charming view of his belly-suffocating Fruit Of The Looms this time around! But now that this mission's accomplished, his utterance of "what now?" absolutely terrifies me. Something tells me we don't want to know. (Thanks, This Just In!)

Don't Try This At Home

There's something to be said about having goals, but not this kind of goal. Sideshow Bob here has "ambition" to squeeze himself into a giant balloon. It's not his first attempt and unfortunately, it won't be his last. So here he is, doing what he aims to do best-- taking the Oedipus Complex to a whole new level. (Thanks, This Just In...!)

Top 5 Reasons Balloon Boy's Dad Is a Jerk

TresSugar — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 13:00:00 -0700

The more I hear about Richard Heene, father of Balloon Boy, the more I'm frightened by the man. Before he and his family took over the media yesterday, Richard was busy starring in videos in which he comes off as hostile and misogynistic.

Here are my top five reasons this man is a jerk:

It's likely that he tricked the media and government officials into thinking his 6-year-old son Falcon was flying away in a balloon. News just broke that Richard first called the local TV station to report that Falcon took off, while his wife called 911 and the FAA. His likely hoax cost taxpayers a lot of money.
On an episode of Wife Swap, Richard made a "bitchmeter" for his swapped wife and said: "You're a man's nightmare. I'm so glad my wife was born in Japan."
He's videotaped himself ranting about how "ugly chicks need makeup to look like hot chicks." (I've included the video above. It's scary.)
He had his kids star in a homemade rap video about the "pussification" of America. In a "pussified" world, "the females are typically referred to as 'soccer moms' while the males are referred to as 'pussies.' " Huh?
He makes horribly misogynistic YouTube videos, including one where he wonders whether Hillary Clinton is a reptile and another where he discusses whether Britney Spears's breasts are real.

If this family truly orchestrated the balloon fiasco for publicity, then Richard must not be surprised that the Internet is digging up countless examples of his douchiness. Perhaps that's what he wanted to happen.

Pop Music Made by Poppin' Balloons

Who needs fancy instruments when you have balloons, pins, a video camera, and a girl who recites two words? The creator hopes it will blow up, so to speak, on the Internet. (I'm doing my part to help.) Maybe Peaches will sample it for her next electro-raunch album?
