high points of the day in humour on the internets

spiders on drugs at youtube. um, don't watch if you don't like spiders. otherwise... well, it's really funny.

okay, and the other funniest thing i saw today was THIS. it's a short story that's not, in itself, that funny... except it's a MULTI-MEDIA SHORT STORY, and all the writing is interspersed with truly horrible photoshop collages. there's weird 80s wallpaper backgrounds, bodie apparently laughing with liquid in his mouth, floating clipart presents, angels, pixellation, a collage consisting of five copies of the same picture, a random panda (yes - really - a random panda), brilliant yellow m&m's, and more cheesy lyrics and poetry than you can shake a stick at. it has to be seen to be believed, and it must be saved for posterity.

Aw, the spider video makes me sad because this experiment was REALLY DONE, but they got the results backwards :( IRL, LSD does jack shit to the spider's web building abilities, but caffeine fucks it up enormously. I liked the marijuana hammock tho :)

Um. It's a parody of the original experiment. Why would a parody of something stick to the real results? It wouldn't be as funny.

As an obscure parody, it's fantastic. But being a huge nerd, I think the real results are way cooler than the stuff they made up, and most people probably DON'T know that it's a parody of something that was really done.
