Some people just have skills. Abilities. Derren Brown can read your mind. Cristiano Ronaldo can beat a whole team of players and stick it in the net. Well…you know that impossible second ‘I’m no Superman’ in the Scrubs theme tune? I know a guy who can come in on it. Nails it in one.
Edarem is up there with the greats. He’s been incarcerated in the past for his odd videos that have wowed the internet community, but he’s still got the skills. Watch and admire.
What’s that you say…dance? Dance when? Now? Everbody Dance Now? Ok then.
I’d have to be seriously intoxicated to be able to move in this manner, so I am happy to view it from the safety from my sofa. And there’s no need to worry about your own abilities, I mean, because they’re animated, right? Whatever – watch and enjoy. Especially the guy in the suit.
You’ve seen him on Shooting Stars as the van owning simpleton, well here he is at an event for Depression. If I was depressed, I think Angelos would turn me round. Especially when offending this intensely annoying interviewer.
Apparently people thought he was real when he first apppeared on Vic and Bob’s absurd quiz. I can see why. He’s totally immersed in his ridiculous character and getting more and more attention from comedy producers as a result. Long live Epithemiou.
This must have taken an age to set up. This guy is really committed to testing the small print on products. Maybe he’s the guy that knows that watches are resistant to a certain depth. He’s down there, risking his life testing them all. Dolls with forks? Shark attacks? Man this is some robust memory. Shame the human brain isn’t the same.
This should be the official training routine of the British Armies. Forget firing ranges and obstacle courses, you ain’t fit for war unless you’ve withstanded what the Samsung Memory Card has been through. Simple.
Some people might consider this a useless pursuit. Why would anyone watch Synchronised Walking when you have football or rugby. Well I for one am fascinated. I have respect for someone who can dribble past 2 Chelsea defenders, but it doesn’t come close to the admiration I have for these chaps.
Forget Rooney, it’s these lot that should be on £150,000 a week. Look at the way they march by, not even brushing each other. Absurd, maybe, but no more random and bizarre than 11 men chasing after a bit of leather.
I know they’ve been around for a while, but this may be the oddest group in the world. Terrible rapping, awful tattoos, and even worse lyrics.
“All up in the interweb”? Really? Well, sir, I would but the argument forward that you still ARE a loser and a psycho.
Just like there is no need to hide the fact that you are gay, who needs to be modest about playing some of the biggest roles in film history? By their very nature, actors should be confident and flamboyant.
Wear your t-shirt with pride, Sir Ian. March for your right to be in huge blockbusters. Never surrender your opinions.
I’m pretty sure ‘I be a lump on you’ has never, ever been a lyric in a song in the history of all time. Unless someone had released an album about cancer. And that’s doubtful. Or maybe the NHS would consider funding it.
‘Asbestos’. Now there’s another word you wouldn’t usually find in songs. Loads of it in your roof cavity – but it’s not going to fall out of Robbie Williams’ or Shakira’s mouth. Unless they were very ill.
Now where do we start with this? There’s a lot wong here. Firstly, the words ’sexual’ and ‘harassment’ should not be uttered in the same sentence when marketing a sex toy. Surely that’s not conducive to sexual fun. And Cornbrator? What’s sensual about a corn on the cob? Maybe smear a bit of butter on there while you’re at ‘it’.
As if all that wasn’t enough, the makers have gone all out at the end. Just in case you were in any doubt as to what you were getting yourself in for. ‘Hyper Wank Device’. Lovely.
They say the Mother’s bond with her baby is sacred. Well, not if you have an ace Dad like this. “Oh, hey Junior, what was your earliest memory?” “Me, my brother and my Dad dancing like twats”. Look at them – their brains are synced effortlessly.
I bet Michael Jackson couldnt dance before he could walk. Well, these fellas can. Ring up Simon Cowell, get on the blower to Britain’s Got Talent and sign them up. It’s the new version of John and Edward. The talented version.
Eminem’s lost his way a bit hasn’t he? That whole sleeping pill addiction must have really hit his career hard. When he was away, not making albums, I assumed he was recovering to come back stronger than ever.
Alas not, he appears in his latest music video to be a shadow of his former self. He’s so intoxicated, in fact, his accent is slurred beyond recognition. The music’s suffering as well. Poor Slim Shady. Get well soon.
Sozzled, tipsy, wankered, pissed, three sheets to the wind, bladdered, drunk. Whatever you call it, we all like an evening on the old sauce. And sci-fi guys are no different. They may look different, but whether you’re in Lord of the Rings, in Space or in your front room in Manchester – alcohol transcends all life and existence.
And which narrow-minded fool is content with Earthly concoctions anyway? This video makes even the most exciting cocktail look drab. I want to try some ‘wake-up juice’. And not to mention that weird Dragon goo. There’s so many dimensions of drunk yet to be discovered!
And, sticking with the decent commercial theme, we have another successful ad. The theme here? Fun. And lots of it. With Creme. And half naked men and women. Ok, so the women look better than the men. But, yeah, fun is the theme.
Until Bruce Willis comes along with his camp doubting ways. You don’t like whipped creme? No bikini clad ladies for you then my friend. Get out. On your bike. I guess you’ll have to stick to ‘natural’ creme. Loser.
They seem all cuddly and chubby, sitting around all day on their bums munching bamboo. But this is what Pandas are actually capable of. Despite ‘Panda’ food looking nothing if not a bit dodgy, you’d definitely go for it if you were faced with 5 foot of fur and muscle.
These types of ad campaigns are always successful. Funny, repetitive and with a good central character. It’d make you want to watch programmes to see the latest development in the ad in between. And what do we have? An annoying Go Compare tenor and a talking Meerkat. Great.
