Why You Should Never Play Uno

I thought that the most dangerous thing about playing Uno might be getting a paper cut from that thick card stock, or getting smacked by an overzealous player after you get them with a "Draw Four." How wrong I was.

Dana's Guilty Pleasure Playlist

I have to say, most of these aren't even guilty pleasures, because I'm not embarrassed about liking 70's cock rock, 80's hair metal, soft rock, etc.

The only TRUE guilty pleasures are the cheesy pop songs at the end of the playlist.

Garbage Disposal

One of our contributors bought his wife a garbage disposal for her birthday (ah, romance), so I felt it appropriate to show this teeny little scene from Seinfeld to help him with the installation.

Shark Week - The Best and Worst Moments of Sharks in TV and Movies

This week is Shark Week on the Discovery Channel which prompted the conversation about the best and worst shark moments in television and movies.

Fonzie Jumps the Shark - Both literally and figuratively

This 2 part episode of Happy Days raised so many questions such as:

  • Can you really surf on an ironing board?
  • Why was the shark located under the ski jump?
  • Did it just hang out there or was it in a cage?
  • If it was in a cage, why did they put the cage under the ski jump?
  • Is a leather jacket considered a flotation device?
  • And finally, where do you take the show after an episode with this much drama?

Answer: downhill. This show never was the same after this episode. Ted McGinley and the girl from Poltergeist couldn’t even save this show. The one plus is that we did get the phrase “Jump the Shark” for television shows that past their prime.





Sharks with Freakin Lasers

Like Dr. Evil said, "even sharks are entitled to a hot meal". The following clip is from Austin Powers 3 - Gold Member. Freakin Awesome.



Jabber Jaw

The following is the intro to Jabber Jaw. The formula for a the Hanna Barbara mystery cartoons back in the 70's was the following: Put together a group of teens made up of a good looking girl and guy, then add in the nerd for the smart factor. Finally add a stoner and a non human buddy for the stoner such as a dog, a speed buggy, or even a shark that talked like Curly.




Jaws 5 Fire Island - Family Guy

The following video is a hilarious clip from Family Guy.



Land Shark

The following is a classic from SNL.



Shark Attack 3: Megalodon

The following clip is from Shark Attack 3: Megalodon. I think this is a Sci-Fi Channel movie. Not only is the acting horrible, but the scale of this shark keeps changing.



Batman vs. Shark

The following is from the original Batman Movie. No not the one with Michael Keaton, the real Batman - Adam West.

Human Tetris

The Japanese are not only years ahead of us in technology, but have also leap frogged the US when it comes to game show ideas. This video is of a game show that has qualities similar to Tetris. I don't know what these guys are thinking or saying but man is it hilarious.

We're Not Candy

The following commercial was a PSA in the 80's about the dangers of mistaking pills for candy. It is also the inspiration for our blog name.
