Meet my favorite new thing: Gasbangwallop was one of the segments from England’s Brainiac: Science Abuse, a kind of Mythbusters without any real expertise. What they lacked in brainpower however, they more than made up for in bang, silliness, and smiles (collectively called fun). Listen to the things “Barry” says to “Clive” right before the bang. Amazing!

Again I ask you, is Japan the funnest place on Earth? I’m pretty sure this game show works like this: Grease up the ladies and attempt to slide to the other side. It’s almost elegant in its simplicity. Anyone willing to attempt the same stunt state-side should contact me in the comments section.
Sunday began with me watching this segment on Sunday Morning with Charles Osgood—and smiling clear through nightfall. I figure what better way to kick off the first Monday of ‘09 than by sharing it with ya’ll. Really, take a minute to push play, and endure the commercial at the start… if your eyes don’t well up half-way through, your heart is made of stone and your veins are filled with ice-water.
The title pretty much says it all… though the punchline doesn’t come until after the light goes out. Literally. Have a look.
Hands down, my favorite Australian band this side of Devo, has made, what might be, the greatest video I’ve seen so far this year. Low budget in a Spike Jonze kinda-way, but awesome in a Spike Jonze kinda-way, it features people sliding up things and, well, doing more of the type of fun trickery that can only be accomplished by running video in reverse… which probably explains why it’s called the “Crazy Reverse Remix.” Sadly, the video couldn’t be embedded. Pleasant surprise: it’s hosted on Kontraband, the first major site to show Zoomdoggle love. Here’s loving you back. Click through to check it out.

It’s a comercial for some kind of new energy drink, I know, but it’s also a sick fun idea. You start with the Nerf Vulcan (Zoomdoggle Gift Idea 55), then up the power and automate the trigger. That’s so cool it hurts. And they’ve got the full how-to on their site. Wowsers.

People keep asking me why fun ideas by text? The answer is obvious. Have you tried it yet? It’s fun. And it’s free. And it’s brought to you by Zoomdoggle.com. Don’t be scared to tell a friend.
Meet the Jingle Cats. Always a crowd pleaser.
NOTE: One of my resolutions in the new year is stop rushing the uploads in the new year. I’m pretty sure this resolution will fix the resolution.
Pay very close attention or you just might miss something.
The recipe is rather simple for an Insta-Washington. And the powder sticks to wet hair rather nicely. Of course, if you’re that bored, you could always text “NEED FUN” to Zoomdoggle’s own 30644 instead. We’ll send you back a fun idea. It’s free and easy and your roommates may thank you (or not, this is one of the ideas in there).
10 words I find fun: kerfuffle, whippersnapper, nipple, discombobulated, grommet, condiments, spork, floozy, boa, and dogapult ... more »
Pick up someone else's camera.
Let your face get completely slack.
Shake hard.
Flash.
Wait for it to be found.
Smile.
The next time someone picks you up in their car - say a friend or family member - climb in the back, right-hand seat, leaving the front passenger seat empty. With a straight face, tell 'em where to. It's a little game I call "Chauffeur." Fun.
Write the letters "B" and "R" on a one-dollar bill. Tuck your boner anywhere you please. Pull it out when least expected for maximum effect.
For this one, you need to be in the back of a car.
And you can't be the only one there.
first, let your body go limp (it helps to imagine you've actually got no bones).
Next, undo you're seatbelt.
Now play Jello.
The fun starts midway through the first turn one.
On a hot day, few things beat "stinky ice cream":
While eating with a friend, ask if their's smells funny too.
When they go in for a whiff, give the old elbow a little bump.
Not too hard, just enough to powder their nose.
