[THIS](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ql339uG65Sw) video, I think, is amazing. I could watch it five times, at least, and never be bored with it and probably see something new each time. It’s also pretty funny, immensely ingenious, and highly amusing. In short: It’s one badass series and one of the coolest videos I’ve seen for a long time. ---

Jeez…just about half of [my favorites](http://www.youtube.com/my_favorites) could count. But, a recent favorite…[British military LSD experiments.](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ojXak45VRd0) ---

WARNING: NSFW-ish. While it doesn’t ever show any actual nudity, it’s majorly implied and comes damn close. But this video is another one that I find really cool, amazing, and funny as hell. Tip: Stop waiting or trying to “catch” nudity and instead focus on the patterns the black censor bars and dots are making.

It’s just a loop of about 10 seconds played forward and backward and forward and backward over and over again…yet they were able to cram a lot in there. It must have taken forever and a day to get right. ---

I don’t believe it! Some jumping around from the Weird Earl’s site and I found this: [http://www.236.com/video/2009/a\_236\_propaganda\_production\_ga\_11005.php](http://www.236.com/video/2009/a_236_propaganda_production_ga_11005.php) … and yet this thread doesn’t seem to be based upon either this or the vid below. The combination of mid-20th C. info-films with current specific fears and terminology (“Gay” wasn’t a household word until after 1969.) makes this a real knee-slapper. But the direct Weird link gives this, which is [simultaneously amusing and a little scary…](http://www.236.com/video/2008/watch_synchronized_presidentia_9857.php) But if neither cracks you up the site also has a George Bush retrospective, plus several gems from Ann Coulter. - “Jack” ---

I really enjoy watching [Kasou Taishou](http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=Kasou&search=tag) videos. Human-powered special effects; really neat stuff (think “Matrix Ping Pong,” if you’ve seen that). Other stuff: [Daft Hands](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2cYWfq--Nw). Starts slow, but bear with it; it’s pretty good. [The Trons!](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c2JChnwv2Ws) Very catchy.
