Oh... well that is new


ROB ZOMBIE WANTS YOU TO SORT YOUR COLORS
Rob Zombie is famous for being a little scary. The movies he has directed include "House of 1000 Corpses" and "Devil's Rejects" which are not feel-good movies (unless you feel good about inbred cannibals and murder). While he is well known for making pretty hardcore music, he has also done some pretty awesome/creative music videos to go along with his music. He is fairly prolific. Rob Zombie just released his latest project: a commercial for Woolite detergent. SERIOUSLY! I want this to continue this trend of people promoting things indiscriminately: Britney Spears for 'the Rosetta Stone' or Dora the Explorer doing an ad for birth control.


























I FOUND A MAKE-UP SPECIALIST!
This kid has been posting how-to videos for a while and she is clearly the most brilliant make-up artist in the land (by the way- this is the look I am going to rock next time I do an open-mic). I am going to have to study up on child labor laws if I want this kid in my employ- but I think it would be worth it. The kid has got skills!

AWARDS ARE MEANINGLESS. IF YOU AGREE- YOU SHOULD GIVE THESE PEOPLE AN AWARD!
The Onion, a satirical newspaper, is lobbying for the Pulitzer Prize. The link at the end of the video goes to "Americans for Fairness in Awarding Journalism Prizes." People like Tom Hanks and Arianna Huffington have videos out voicing their support and I think it is great. My relationship with journalists is tense. While I think they (some of them) provide an invaluable service, I also support anything that undermines their smug sense of superiority.

  1. Those Madison make-up videos are strangely addictive. How sad that a 5-year-old is literally teaching me how to do make-up at age 27.

    I'm wary of checking out the Zombie Woolite link, though.
