Like happy birthday man...

So in February this dude posts a picture of his dog (Riley) sitting at a table with a dog birthday cake. The dog is a white poodle type dog mixed with something else. Anyway the dog looks pretty nutz. Its eyes are like slits and really look human. Its actually kind of creepy, but what made it famous was the fact that the dog looked stone. His buddy saw his picture on facebook and uploaded it to a site called Reddit where you can commented on things like posted pictures. It was a huge hit and generated over 700 posts instantly. Below is what a few people were saying...

ajprax: Looks really baked.
Shaper_pmp: I suspect his paws are huuuuuuuuge.
Majupra: “Duuude. This cake is so… … …duuude.”
AnnArchist: he got high as fuck
skizmo: How high is that ?
texpundit: Exactly one fuck high.

The owner of the dog, Maureen Ravelo, actually went onto the Today Show to set the record straight and stated that the dog was actually not high. As you can imagine, everybody soon after that started photoshoping the crap out of it. Check out the link

You can have ur cake and eat it too,

Tear A Rug Lil Man.

I actually saw this video on some tv comedy show a while back. I didn't know it had become such a huge hit on-line. Basically the store is that there is this little Indian actor named Thavakalai, or also known affectionately as "King Kong". The actor is a breaking dancing to Madonna's 1983 hit "Holiday". The script goes as such:

Mother: Hey, hey. What’s with the party early in the morning. Everyone go away, shoo, shoo. (Speaking to Rajinikanth, who’s lying on the cot) Why not take some rest, dear.
Rajinikanth: OK, Mom (lights up a cigarette as she walks away).
Thavakalai: Dude, give me a cigarette.
Rajinikanth: Hey! Kids shouldn’t smoke.
Thavakalai: Buddy, I’m ten years older than you. Give it to me I say.
Rajinikanth: And if I don’t?
Thavakalai: I’ll skin you alive.
Rajinikanth: Here you go.

The video itself is great and hilarious. Its kinda odd as well. As you can image a bunch of people made spoofs about it as well which are all pretty good. Check out the link, and watch the original. If you scroll down you can catch the one by SNL.

What up Snicks.

The meme I did today is another photoshop born meme. Its the SnookiShip 2010. The actualy images people make arn't really all that exciting in themselves. But the idea behind Snooki is. Snooki was member from MTVs Jersey Shore. If you had a television this winter chances are you know at least half of the cast. The show is about a group of young east coast Italian Americans who move into a beach house on the Jersey Shore. They live there for a summer and basically talk about what it means to be a "guido" and party their asses off.
One memeber in particular became the most popular. Her name was Snooki. She was a short overly tan girl who had a really interesting outlook on life. She often was over emotional and was just looking for a guy to make out with. She was also punched in the face by a frat guy in one episode (note: I don't condone that). But the point is she really blew up in the popular culuture after that. Thats what inspired people to start photoshopping her in all kinds of crazy pictures. Anyway the point is, the reign of Snooki isn't over yet.

Yo Homes, You Cool?

This has also been a popular meme as it has appeared on the home page for a long time. Its called playing dead. The origin started in Korea mostly. The idea was to take pictures of yourself playing dead or pretending to be dead. I guess it started in a manga comic book where a little boy would play dead when his mother got home.

Anyway this was a big deal online in Asia in 2003. In fact they seem to be much better at doing it then most westerners. Which apparently is cool? There are alot of pictures out there with people acting dead. A lot just look like people sleeping but some are pretty convincing. Its kind of a morbid thing to do though. I don't really see the point in it, unless your using it in films. Maybe its a cultural thing or an artistic expression, who knows man. But chances are you won't find me playing opossum anytime soon. I tried posting a few pics but the blogger site is getting hairy. Check out the link

Bombs Away!

The meme this time is really something that has been happenng since the dawn of the photograph. Its called photo "bombing". Basically its when somebody sneaks into your picture, either in the front or back, and ruins it with a stupid pose or face. It could also just be the fact that they are in it at all. From a neutral point, a photo bomber can be funny as hell. The link to the site shows tons of pictures with people "bombing" photos.
People can also bomb videos. This happens all the time on the news. People are always running into interviews and doing bogus stuff. It also happens with award shoes apprently. Take for instance Kanye when he butted in on T-Swift. It also happened when some crazy lady butted in on a directors oscar these past academy awards.
Below I posted a few bombed photos. If your looking for some videos check out the link. Note the first photo though. Dude looks just like Chevy Chase and that looks a lot like John Belushi in the background. Who knows.

Two thumbs up.

So some guy apparently from Wisconsin was in a few photos taken with girls in their underwear dancing. Im not gonna post the picture, but basically the guy was drinking with some friends downtown and things got alittle wild. He gets into this pose where he is giving two thumbs up in approval of these girls. Somehow the pictures got posted a meme website and this guy became the target of photoshopers. People started using his thumbs up pose and labeling him the "approval guy". They put him in a bunch of pictures where some sort of crazy thing is happenin in the background. Alot of people tried to figure out who he really was but he wanted to remain anoymous. Instead he wrote into a few websites dishing the background on the pictures.


Approve That.

Show some love for the Red Heads.

There is a meme out there right now about red headed people not having souls. The whole thing started with a South Park Episode (go figure) that stated that people with red hair had no souls. I guess from there things got kinda out of hand and people started getting picked on at school.
One "ginger" out there deceided to make a video response to it. Its very hardcore. The kid is 18 yrs old and pissed. He talks about how he is a Christian and only God knows whether or not people have a soul. He says people pick on him at school constantly and he isn't gonna take it anymore. Its pretty admirable, but I mean what do you think is gonn happen when you post that? People are gonna screw with it man. A bunch of people did remixes to it, and I think South Park even made a cartoon version of it. Alot or raps and what not were made. Some of them are pretty good, but Poor Kid right.
The link below will take you to the main page where you can check em all out.

Dig That,
