That one led to “2 Chickens Break Up Rabbit Fight.” It’s true. The chickens actually stop the fight and then walk off.

Don’t know if [this](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6AXPnH0C9UA) has been mentioned, but I can’t stop laughing. Ultra-simple execution, and a wonderful clip in its own right (_Sesame Street_ flashback), so very very funny overall. 🙂

[Jerry O’Connell next on Tommy’s hitlist](http://digg.com/comedy/The_Parody_Video_Tom_Cruise_WANTS_you_to_see), a hilarious take on the Tom Cruise scientology video making the rounds (not youtube).

Thanks to **Annie** in the Pit for posting this.

From the 60’s, a commercial for the game [Pie Face](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dk2Fa_nXQV4). (Note: sound is poor so you’ll have to turn up your volume.)

Although one of my earliest TV memories is seeing this commercial, I never had this game. Did anyone else have it?

I must’ve managed to forget this one last time I posted on this thread, but I remembered it again now.

[This](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EDtw71vCTXk) is the _freakiest_ music video I’ve ever seen.

I like this comment:  
_"wow, reading everyone’s comments was more amusing then watching the video itself… but holy f_\*\*, what would ever compel a human being to make something so awful"\*

I had never seen nor heard about this show before, but it is fantastic. I’m not a car guy in the least, but their trip had me in stitches, especially when they drove through Alabama.

Thanks for those!
