The Whedonverse Circle of Life

Former 'Buffy' star gives birth on her own birthday.

Terrible Awesomeness, set to music

For some reason, spanish speaking You Tubers have a love affair with terrible meteor videos. This is one of my favorites. I especially love the music, the swerving meteor/missiles, and the sound effects.

Dramatic readings of message-board posts about atheism from Christian fundamentalist message boards

Xtranormal III

Another One More on Watchmen

"Leaked" video game footage.

Not safe for work, but really funny.

Xtranormal

This is a site where you type in your own script and then the animated characters speak it. You could make them say something really interesting and profoundly philosophical, but I know you're going to make them say dirty stuff. I know because I would.

Israel ≠ All Jews


The Anti-Defamation League calls this cartoon anti-Semitic.
Pat Oliphant's outlandish and offensive use of the Star of David in combination with Nazi-like imagery is hideously anti-Semitic. It employs Nazi imagery by portraying Israel as a jack-booted, goose-stepping headless apparition. The implication is of an Israeli policy without a head or a heart.

Israel's defensive military operation to protect the lives of its men, women and children who are being continuously bombarded by Hamas rocket attacks has been turned on its head to show the victims as heartless, headless aggressors.

To me, the comic is anti-Israel, not anti-Semitic.

I know it's hard for people to separate people following a religion and living all over the world from a nation based on that religion, but, come on, they're not the same thing. Ever.
