Google Pretentious Spoofs Google Glass

Google_Project_Pretentious.jpg

Most certainly somewhat NSFW, this month old Combusting Herpes spoof of Google's recent release of Google Glass is hilarious and has fun with the product's "progressive pretentiousness." The awesomeness of the spoof is that it calls attention to the idiocy of some technologies that many of us really don't an will never need.

Dr. Schnoz Takes on LMFAO's Party Rock

cr_schnoz_lmfao_party_rock.jpg

It was funny the first time. It was mildly amusing the second time. It began to grate the third time. The fourth, well, it's like being forced to watch Rebecca Black's Friday over and over again with toothpicks holding your eyelids open.

Yea. It's plastic surgeon extraordinaire Dr. Michael Salzhauer again. This time, as "Booty Doc," he's having fun with LMFAO's Party Rock. This work follows his ribbing of Old Spice, Shades of Grey and Justin Bieber.

As tired as this has become, secretly, we can't wait to see what he'll parody next.

Jen Responds to Mark's Google Chrome Overtures

google_chrome_response.jpg

Remember Google Chrome: Coffee, the video Google created that showed how a guy used Google to get an old girlfriend to have coffee with him? Ever wonder what Jen's response would have been to Mark's persistance? Well, now we know. The guys over at UCBComedy created a spoof response to the video that portrays Mark in a completely different light.

It's not hilarious but it does have a few funny moments.

The Word 'LOL' Occupies 27 Percent of Facebook Server Capacity

fake_social_media_stats.jpg

For years, marketers have used statistics to prop up questionable endeavors and agencies have done the same to pimp their lame ass, wicked cool ideas to clients. The beauty of statistics is that you can manipulate the numbers any way you see fit to support whatever it is you are trying to sell.

So it is without surprise that wunderkind of the moment, social media, is a treasure trove of less than reliable stats. UK site, The Poke has taken it upon themselves to have a little fun with all the bullshit statistics currently being slung about regarding social media.

Conan Has Fun With Commercials

Feeling they no longer get our due respect, last night Conan O'brien highlighted commercials from Yoplait, Mutual of Omaha, Kraft Milkbites and...um...shoplifting. It's not your typical ad review. Give it a look.

Coke Happiness Machine Gets Naughty

We're pretty sure Coke isn't going to like this. We're pretty sure this video won't be up for long. We're pretty sure the people who created the video had a lot of fun making it. We're pretty sure all the girls hugging the machine need to go get a real man. And we're pretty sure we really, really like this spoof.

Nose King of Miami Continues Old Spice Assault

dr_schnoz_shades_of_grey.jpg

Dr. Schnoz, the "Nose King of Miami," is at it again with another Old Spice spoof. This one features "the man standing next to the man who could make your man look more like me" reading romantic novel Fifty Shades of Grey.

Last week, the good doctor, Dr. Michael Salzhauer, came out with his initial Old Spice parody which, to date, has garnered 205,993 views. Can Salzhauer reclaim the glory this week? We aren't sure. We called the initial work the worst Old Spice parody we have ever seen. Then again Rebecca Black's Friday Friday has achieved over 30 million views to date.

Not All Boobs Are As Nice As Kate Upton's

carls_jr_nyquil_spoof.jpg

You know how dreams twist reality? Now imagine having a dream about Carl's Jr. One might assume it'd be a pretty hot dream complete with images of you motorboating Kate Upton's huge boobs or having sex with Paris Hilton sex tape-style. Got those images in your head now? OK, now stop reading unless you want to ruin everything.

Still here? OK. You asked for it. AdamRayTV decided to create a Carl's Jr. spoof...and put it inside a Nyquil ad. Twisted? Definitely. Funny? Pretty much. A little gross? Most certainly.
