In a world before youtube, my friends and I had a much smaller collection of beloved internet videos. The most beloved of them all was a file called money_funny.wmv. It may be known better on the internet as Korean Girls Doing Karaoke, but to me, it will always by Money Funny

Thoth? Come on, really?
What specifically endows a mummy with the ability to curse someone? Is it a specific way you wrap the toilet paper or…
Did you guys have a “Jinx” type scenario where if you cursed a mummy at the same time it was cursing you, one of you couldn’t curse someone for […]
National High Five Day - 4/17
April 16th, 2008 by Conor Lastowka · 16 Comments
The rumors are true! The seventh annual National High Five Day is on Thursday! You may have seen National High Five Day, (which I co-founded back in 2002), mentioned on the Tony Danza Show last year, but if not, the basic idea is that on the Third Thursday in April, while going about […]
The Twin Peaks/Seinfeld Connection
April 1st, 2008 by Conor Lastowka · 15 Comments
The things you learn every day. This is Robert Mailhouse. He had a role in a little show called “Seinfeld”, as a gay man who Elaine tried to recruit for her ‘team’, but most of you probably recognize him as the drummer for the band “Dogstar”, featuring Keanue Reeves.
Discovering the connection of Dogstar, […]
Churros Zen

This churros stand, which was discovered on my first ever trip to Tijuana, truly speaks to the conflicted nature of Mankind. Honestly, at the core of our being, what are we all other than a churros stand apologizing for its lack of churros?

We Are The World

A year or two ago, I made a video where I re-enacted Game 6 of the 1986 World Series using characters from the classic Nintendo game RBI Baseball. The Japanese, of course have taken this to the next logical level and commissioned a team of extremely talented…singers? Impersonators? Nut cases? To […]

Ladder Golf, AKA Rat King: The Game
March 4th, 2008 by Conor Lastowka · 29 Comments
I have played quite a bit of “Ladder Golf” since the weather turned permanently nice here a week or so ago. Ladder Golf belongs to the horseshoes, bocce ball, beanbag toss family of games, which all have in common the fact that they are easily played, and some said only made tolerable, with a […]

In the midst of boxing up our things as we prepare to move into a new place after 3+ years, my girlfriend made an odd discovery last night. At the bottom of an Ikea flower pot that held spare keys, tape, nails and other random things, a little scrap of paper was sitting there:

It’s Presidents Day. I’m off work. The sun, which has shone brightly for the previous two days hides behind clouds. I’ve just started a big crock pot full of chili that won’t be ready for several hours. I need something to do…

The Perfect Crime
February 5th, 2008 by Conor Lastowka · 16 Comments
By far the most entertaining five pages of a a legal PDF that you will read all week. The dry, legal-ese of the text makes this saga of four college kids who decide to steal some rare books worth millions from their school library all the more entertaining. I suggest reading it without spoiling […]
