-Synth-voice cover of “Space Oddity”
-Every “fuck” The Wolf of Wall Street gives.
–Coonrippy 2014! Because the best reason to run for offices is a pet raccoon.
-A dildo in space! (No, not George Clooney. Don’t be mean.)
-How to open a can without a can opener, if you’re a tough Russian. Or Popeye the Sailor Man.
-“Timms Valley” – weird stop-motion sitcom that’s a literal Valley of the dolls.
-“Boobie, boobie, boobie…light my way.”
-Hubble space photos for the blind.

-I’m guessing this is the UK equivalent of Adult Swim.

-Ringo Starr wishes he were a Powerpuff Girl. Can I just say that the use of phrases like “wish I was” and “if I was to say” in songs are hugely responsible for half the grammar mistakes I made in high school English? (Conditional form is “were” – let every pop star know.)

-How to train your scientist to make you a dragon.
-Four years a slave to this stop-motion project.
–WHOSE BADFEELING THIS? The Star Wars casting/meeting talk so far…
-You’ve heard that Jesus probably wasn’t white. But these Christian “rappers” insist he’s their nigga. If this video is real, the church that made it has closed down, for reasons I’m sure we can imagine.
–Lego Spider from Wild Wild West because why?
