GOOD GRAVY, HOW VERY CLEVER


The internet’s very clever. A clever man on it has been very clever, cutting scenes together from old black-and-white films to create a 1950s version of Ghostbusters starring Bob Hope, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. If you watch it, it seems pretty well done, but watching the frame-by-frame comparison after the jump leaves you a little bit “Holy NARDS that’s been lovingly put together”. Yes, this comes a mere two days after the Back To The Future nerdy comparison thing. We know. Don’t judge us, yeah?

LEARNING CAN BE FUN PIC OF THE DAY

Via the sexy geniuses at St Mackenzie’s. You probably shouldn’t click on that link in work, unless you really hate your job.

Um. Isn’t that a bit, er, insensitive? Maybe?

MTB WTF

Look at this wacky champ. His name is Danny MacAskill, he’s from Edinburgh, he’s a team rider for Inspired Bicycles, and he can do things with a mountain bike that make our bums hurt just thinking about them.

Why don’t you go and try some of these stunts, outside, right now? Go on, we’ll stand over here and film you. That’s it, pedal dead fast at that fence. That’s the spirit. Now launch yourself into the air… Up you go… Weeee…

Oh. Ooof. Erm, see y’later, yeah?

IT’S THE WEEKEND, LET’S GET DRUNK, PART 28 OF LOTS

wtf-pics-hillbilly-ice-crea

It’s 24 July, 2009. It’s been a funny week in FRONT towers – we’ve frantically scribbled and cut’n'sticked our way to the new issue, which you’ll be hearing much more about next week, and then pretty much everyone’s sodded off for a long weekend. Honestly, there’s four of us – FOUR – in the office right now. Total words said to each other stands at about 57. We’re all so lonely…

What better way to cure said loneliness, though, than with glorious, sexy alcohol. Who needs friends when you’ve got a pint of chop-juice in your hands on a Friday night, eh? Let’s all get so steaming arse-knuckled, so painfully fuck-faced, so damagingly fart-brained that we start talking to crazy pub strangers, attempting to chat up beautiful ladies and, eventually, talking to our own elbow as if it was a mate we’ve not seen in years. We’ll see you on Monday, but we’ll leave you with a pumpkin being sick, Chucky from the Rugrats, and a woman farting underwater.

ANDREW WK CONTINUES TO BE AWESOME


WE FUCKING LOVE THIS MAN. He’s our friend, and he parties hard. Nothing matters in this clip other than his face.

Cheers to Harpski for the heads-up.

ROADS? WHERE WE’RE GOING, WE DON’T NEED ROADS


The clever fellas at CollegeHumor have thoughtfully combined the original ending of Back To The Future with the re-shot version at the beginning of Back To The Future Part II (they changed the actress who played Jennifer), and holy shit it’s brilliant. The bits where it drifts apart and then – BANG! – is totally in sync again are just awesome. If you’re a massive nerd like we are, anyway. We’re getting awfully near 2015 now. Where’s our bloody hoverboards? And in the future, what, do we become assholes or something? God damn it, we want to sack off work now, and sit down and watch the whole trilogy in one go – even the crap bit at the end with Doc’s two prick-looking kids in that rubbish train. Best film trilogy ever. Better than Star Wars. Yeah, we said it.

WE’Z BEEN MAKING MAGAZINES

wtf-pics-care-bear-toilets

Happy Thursday, readers.

Sorry for the lack of activity on this ‘ere site this week – we’ve all been covered in glue and glitter, piecing together the new issue of the mag for all you wonderful peoples.

Stay tuned for the resumption of normal service – we’ve just got to nip to the shop to buy some sticky plasters for all the paper cuts we’ve given ourselves.

Here’s a picture of some ladies with Care Bear heads. Lovely.
