More gold from Tilt

I took these down a while ago and only just now remembered about them.

(Humpty Dumpty walks over to Gremlin in a Hawaiian shirt looking at a fish tank)
HUMPTY DUMPTY: I understand these fish are a lot like Italian sports cars. They're nice to look at but they cost a bundle and they're temperamental as Hell.

A minute or two later, the Gremlin in a Hawaiian shirt threw a fire extinguisher threw the fish tank for no reason.

(Wayne Newton's classy daughter walks into Squinty Eddie's apartment with a bottle of champagne)
WAYNE NEWTON'S CLASSY DAUGHTER: I brought you a housewarming present, want to pour it on each other?

GREMLIN IN A HAWAIIAN SHIRT: Maybe it was an accident.
HUMPTY DUMPTY: Come on, Henry. Time to eat your burnt pancakes.
(Henry looks down, ashamed)

GUY WHO ALWAYS LOOKS WORSE THAN THE LAST TIME YOU SAW HIM: You're dinosaurs, both of you.
WAYNE NEWTON, WHO RARELY STAYS TO HEAR THE END OF STORIES: Dinosaurs, huh? Well as I seem to remember it, dinosaurs had a pretty good run.

The American Office: Promising?

See for yourself. I was actually pleasantly surprised. Steve Carell still needs to be sent to death row for killing David Brent, but I did laugh quite hard several times.

And if you haven't done it yet, watch the British version already. Buy the DVDs, you won't regret it. And if you do, I'll buy them off you as I don't have them yet.

Bad teenage poetry: The most hateable player in college basketball edition

No bandage can cover my scars
It's hard living a life behind invisible bars
Searching for the face of God
I'm only inspired by the poems of Nas

Who wrote those inspirational verses? None other than the most hateable player in college basketball: one Mr. J.J. Redick. That's just a small taste. Check them all out. From this great article.

ON SECOND THOUGHT UPDATE: Those B.C. punkasses with their idiot dreadlocks might be more hateable than Redick. I'm not sure. It's a close one.

THE BEST PART UPDATE:

The following is a selection of poems written by Duke guard J.J. Redick which he selected for publication on SI.com.

This isn't someone stealing J.J.'s private notebook and running off to SI. This is J.J. opening up his notebook and saying "yeah, this one about invisible bars and the poems of Nas is pretty good." What. A. Loser.

The contents of Jesse's locked file cabinet, as far as we can tell by shining a small flashlight into the crack we can see into by yanking at the door

2. Watch box (possibly containing watch)
3. Dr. Seuss book

I speak to Marmaduke cartoons

NO, HE'S EATING A MIDNIGHT SNACK, YOU DUMB FUCK! LOOK, THE BAG IS OPEN, HE'S EATING RIGHT NOW!

Videos

I've found a great new way to host videos (for a week at least). These will only be up temporarily, so get them while you can.

First, a movie I made this year. Charles Lapage, Righting All Your Wrongs. Like Scottywood Raps (which, though the funniest thing ever, is sadly misunderstood), you might not get this unless you know the kid. But give it a shot anyway.

Then, avaliable for the first time online, it's my twelfth grade film project I Love Lucid: or a Journey Through the Subconscious (or something like that). I thought about making a director's cut to improve the film quality and make a couple things better (especially the animated ninja scene), but...meh.

And while you're at it, be sure to check out the Shrimp Products Films page featuring everything I did last year and to satisfy that Pac-Man craving you've been feeling lately.
