Puh puh poker face

Okay so as most people know, I'm really into pop music in general. When Lady Gaga came out with the single "Pokerface", it was the type of song that I thought was pretty good. Catchy - honestly, it had a hook that seemed very familiar to me (especially the "can't read my, can't read my" part) and didn't stand out, but was still alright.
If you don't know the song, check it out (along with the video) here:


Okay, so it's a dance-y pop song. The music video is either exactly what a music video should be, or exactly what it shouldn't be.
Regardless - nothing too spectacular, right?
Well, that's where you're wrong. Am I referring to the fact that she refers to her vagina as a muffin while pointing at it? No (but that is definitely spectacular).
Check this out. This is the same person - and also the same song.



Yeah. This is ridiculously awesome and impressive to me. That's all.

Bam Margera's perfect dropkick

Tonight I saw Bam Margera and his "buddy" Novak in Portsmouth, and Bam hit him with such a sick, awful, killer dropkick, that I had to shake my head.
I remembered that he caught him with a similar dropkick in "Where The Fuck Is Santa?" (the Christmas DVD release from Bam) that I had to look it up on Youtube.
What I found was a third dropkick, exactly the same, just as high, just as perfect, just as awful and painful. This makes me feel like Bam and Novak understand it's like, their "thing" they do. Except:
A. It must kill Bam. I was about four feet away from Bam tonight, and the floor of the bar shook like someone dropped a ton of bricks onto the ground
B. If it kills Bam, then it doubly/perhaps-triply murders Novak. It takes him completely off his feet and he never is looking at Bam when he does it.
Here's the kick:

Jimmy Fallon - Audience Facebook Status

If you don't like Jimmy Fallon, you're either really dumb, or you just haven't seen his good stuff. Or you've seen "Taxi" or "Fever Pitch" (I'm not 100% committed to that joke, as I've seen niether).
I've said it before and I'll say it again - the Jimmy Fallon SNL DVD is one of my favorite SNL DVDs (along with the first Will Ferrel one, and the 25th Anniversary Show). Definitely pick it up if you can.
This is a clip from Late Night With Jimmy Fallon. I don't think this is executed here that well, but one joke is definitely great, and I think this concept is REALLY funny. I wish me and "my team" could write this segment for Jimmy Fallon because I feel like we could really kill it.
Either way, good concept that has a TON of potential as a small segment.
