The first two Powerthirst videos were huge viral video sensations…so the creator made a third one. Unfortunately, this is the one where I think Powerthirst has jumped the shark, because I did not find the one funny at all. Oh well. All good things shark jump eventually.

Spose, an obscure rapper from Maine, has released a sweet video for his new single “I’m Awesome,” where he raps about how he’s not really awesome at all. This is the counterpoint to pretty much all other rap songs, where the rappers pretty much just talk about how awesome they are (ie: Ice Ice Baby, Rapper’s Delight, etc.).

Directed by Chuck Jones, this Warner Bros., this short is considered one of the funniest cartoons ever produced. Steven Spielberg defined it “the Citizen Kane of animated film” and “the most perfect cartoon ever made.” That might be overkill, but I certainly did enjoy watching One Froggy Evening, where Michigan J. Frog makes his historic debut. Enjoy!

For the past month, Ben Folds has been doing live odes to Merton (the original Chatroulette piano jazz guy) during all of his shows. “This video was taken from 4 live shows incorporating Mertonian Chatroulette – approximately 12 minutes a night. After editing out the dicks and most of the rejection (NEXT), here are the finer moments.”

I think Herzog really gets to Waldo’s essence. (Also, I’ve been seeing so many Werner Herzog jokes lately — when did this become a thing? I certainly do approve.)

Not too long ago, a video was posted on P.H. of a little boy delivering Herb Brooks’ final speech from the movie “Miracle.” I just came across this video of the same lil’ fella performing a slightly tweaked version of that speech almost a year later at the opening day for the Boston Red Sox earlier this week. I wonder how long he rehearsed this with his Father…
