I Totally Do This

GiggleSugar — Mon, 13 Apr 2009 08:00:00 -0700

Have you ever met someone you clicked with and imagined a future in which they understand you implicitly, bake you chocolate chip cookies just because, and are generally your perfect match? Animator Levni Yilmaz takes it one step further and follows one dude's reveries about someone across the room he hasn't even met! Kinda like when I point someone out at a party to my friend and say, "There's my future ex-husband."

There's Something About Twitter . . .

Ever feel a little, oh, self-indulgent, exhibitionistic, and trivial when Twittering every bloody random thing you do or think to everyone who's following you on Twitter? Well, the following cartoon breaks down what may be the most disturbing thing about this latest social networking phenomenon. I mean, does anyone really care that you finally found a parking space? Or that your corner market is out of organic tangerines? Communication in the 21st century is shaping up to be very odd indeed. (Oh, and if you're interested - here's my Twitter! Ha ha.)

Flashback: The Superficial Friends

GiggleSugar — Sat, 07 Feb 2009 03:00:00 -0800

The superhero group The Superficial Friends is made up of Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, and the Olsen Twins. In this episode, they find themselves lured into the lair of diabolical fanboy Harry Knowles (the awful writer from Ain't It Cool News). First, he threatens to write a bad review of Lindsay's latest film, and then reveals he just wants to turn them into love slaves. How do they get out of it? Nicole choke holds one bad guy with her thighs, Lindsay's breasts beat up another guy, and one of the Olsens turns into Bob Saget. Genius, just genius.

This Explains Everything

I need to step away from the cats.

Bobby Hill Rules

GiggleSugar — Mon, 05 Jan 2009 09:00:00 -0800

King of the Hill's Bobby Hill is one of those Texas kids who ends up moving to New York or San Francisco. His freak flag is flying just a little too high for his low-key, conservative dad, Hank. Here is one of many hilarious clips of Bobby's attention-seeking shenanigans. He decides he wants to model for a "big and husky" photo shoot, and runs in the house telling Hank, "A man took pictures of me!" I am dying laughing over here. For real.

Flashback: Foghorn Leghorn and the Tiny Chicken Hawk

GiggleSugar — Sun, 16 Nov 2008 01:00:00 -0800

I always loved this little loud-mouthed chicken hawk, Henery Hawk. (Yes, that's how it's spelled.) No one would let him catch a chicken, but he was totally determined. With his New Yawk accent ("I'm gonna get my fuyst chicken today, and dat's dat!") and punkass ways, he always won over peeps like Foghorn Leghorn ("I say, my boy, I say. . ."), who dismissed him for his size. Man, these were violent, though! Everyone's gettin' brained by that little guy!

Hammie Time! The Diary of Edward the Hamster

GiggleSugar — Fri, 14 Nov 2008 07:00:00 -0800

This is like Dostoevsky's Notes From the Underground, only, with a malcontent hammie rather than a Russian prisoner. Who knew a little ham could be so neurotic? The obsessive running on the hamster wheel makes so much sense now . . . (Thanks for this amazing find, Fuzzles!)

Cat on a Unicorn? Yes, Please!

GiggleSugar — Wed, 05 Nov 2008 11:05:00 -0800

This is one of the cutest videos I've ever seen. (Besides Bjork's vid for "Triumph of the Heart"). The band Casiotone for the Painfully Alone has a charming little song called "White Corolla." In addition to a boppy tune and great lyrics, the video features beautiful animation by Julia Pott and Robin Bushell of cats, pandas, dogs, and unicorns. What more could you ask for, people? (I am so looking for a Casio keyboard this weekend!)

The Lion King in Five Seconds

GiggleSugar — Tue, 07 Oct 2008 07:00:00 -0700

I never noticed what a tragic film The Lion King was. Maybe I was distracted by all the singing and dancing safari creatures in the 90-minute version. Sad!

Samuel L. Jackson: The Lost Transformer

GiggleSugar — Tue, 09 Sep 2008 05:46:00 -0700

OK, this is Samuel "Mother Effing" L. Jackson in Transformers, so if you're opposed to strong language, it's NSFW. In other words, this isn't your dad's Saturday morning cartoon! It's been Tarantino'd and Jacksonized. You got that, b*tch?! (Samuel, I think this is a hint you might want to diversify your roles a little.)
