Blatantly Random » Internet

The Lion, The Lion, The Lion King

So I was on the internet last night…

There’s not much I can do to describe this video, it’s pretty self explanatory when you watch it.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=wiHCcz5HVLo

From what I understand, it’s a man, a elderly man from the looks, sitting in his basement, singing (what I can describe loosely) a song. Even a scholar of the internet such as myself fails to see what the hell is going on in this video.

All I can say is sit back and enjoy.

Check out his other videos too, they are just as random.

Until I’m Satisfied

Well, this is my debut post on Blantantly Random, and before I go on, let me thank Malcolm Owen for giving me the spot on this website to vent my very unique brand of Australian randomness.

Hopefully, you will project onto this randomness and love it… or burn me at the stake for something.

Now onto the weird.

So I was on the internet last night, and found this.

Note:: Before you watch this video, I am not to be bought to account for any spontaneous combustion, eye melting or third degree burns to your ego.

For those whose eyes who haven’t burned out yet, this is a parody of the popular video on the song Satisfacton by Benny Benassi, watched by every red-blooded male on the planet.

Enjoy~

Boygues Telecom + Kittens = Perfect Adverts

If you’re a company supplying multiple communication systems to an entire country, you had better market yourselves where your future users hang out. Where is that? YouTube. Doing what? Watching cat videos.

Cue Boygues Telecom using the powers of “Teh Kitteh” to sell people phone service and broadband. And by Jove, it works.

And if you’re a speaker of the language of love, it’s available in French too.

Happy Monday – NyanStep

1. How do you make an annoying internet theme awesome? By smushing it together with a relatively new genre of music and distort the crap out of it. Cue a decent Nyan Cat Dubstep…

Ken Block’s Gymkhana Four – This Time It’s Personal

Ken Block. The guy that does those awesome driving videos. Yeah, him. He’s done another one. This time it’s overproduced!

He is a crazy, crazy, crazy god amongst men. Alongside the Epic Meal Time guys…

(And I saw it as the 301st viewer. WIN!)

Happy Monday – Friday

1. I know it’s Monday, you don’t want anything to do with the world and are waiting for the end of the week, but if only there was a song that could make you think of hanging out of a car with your friends whilst singing a weekday repeatedly in chorus. Well, blame Rebecca Black.

2. Happy Monday!

3. Why did this get 51 million views on Youtube compared to the great Ray Bradbury ode getting just over 1 million at the time of writing?! Seriously, what is wrong with people…

News Website Blog For Scientific Papers Tells Us Nothing, Genius

How often have you read a news post on some supposedly important website where some junk science that is apparently important to us all is discussed in the hope that someone suddenly thinks it’s important?

Yeah, too many. Cue this post in the Guardian’s “The Lay Scientist”, which demonstrates the language of scientific news:

Much like Charlie Brooker explaining TV news, Martin Robbins does well to demonstrate what generic text for or against something you would find in each part of the article. It is utter genius.
