If You Don't Laugh, You're Likely Dead

Or maybe your humor is just not as juvenile as mine and about two million other fans of this stuff. If I'm late to this, I blame a coworker who sent it around the office today.

I love weird ideas. This one had to have been hatched spontaneously when some drunk guy was rambling to his buddies about history.

The concept: get people drunk and have them tell you what they know about history, then have the scenes being told acted out hilariously by the moderately famous and the pretty famous. This is the fourth installment from Drunk History, a YouTube creation of Derek Waters. This one has around 55K views after only a week. The first one (uploaded last Christmas) has been viewed nearly 1.7 million times.

Instant Classic

DISCLAIMER: I hate Ryan Seacrest. I hate Simon Cowell. I hate Paula Abdul. I hate American Idol and all that it stands for. But this is Gold.

Screw Weezer and their stupid, forgettable homage to all the recent virals. This thing, featuring Robert Downey Jr., Jack Black and Ben Stiller is far more viral, shareable and funnier than any contrived piece of crap by a washed-up 90s band.



To appreciate the true genius of this work, see here the original video from 1973, from which this thing was created.
