Tip Tuesday – The Joy of YouTube

YouTube scares me, quite frankly. You never know what kind of junk you’ll find when you go there. The internet has gone completely content crazy. Got a video of your dog taking a nap? You’d better post it quick before he wakes up.

The ever wonderful PhilTube parody site keeps Dan and I laughing and asking each other, “Is it up yet? Well get it up!” (The site appears to be down. I’ll put a link up if it resurfaces.)

A while back Jeana posted links to some of her favorite commercials and it got me thinking, “I need more fun video in my life.”

So, here’s my latest greatest find, a reminder that you should really keep an eye on the garbage your kids are exposed to.

I’m also an undying fan of the Outpost.com commercials.

Give me a link to something that makes you laugh online - in a DYM appropriate sort of way.

    Thanks for the Tuesday morning chuckle! Funny how editing and a little change of soundtrack can really twist a story. Something to remember. And those Outpost ads… so mean… but so funny…why!? Have a great day!

    Scary Mary…love it!

    Ironically, that movie always freaked me out a bit. I never liked her because she lied about the chalk drawing incident.

    Thanks for the giggles!

    As a former member of the marching band I am greatly offended by this. I will now sally forth to Youtube to search for video of a floating head being shot by a cannon loaded with mice.

    This is an old one, but still my favorite… Did you know The Shining was a heartwarming and triumphant father-son pic? See this re-cut preview:
