The Language of Viagra — Translated!

Published by rickswerve December 23rd, 2007 in internet, politics, video, drugs, consumerism, high weirdness, bizarre, media, funny and cool. 0 Comments

A friend of mine came over a while ago and said that he had subtitled these annoying Viagra ads. The problem was the web site that let him do the subtitling, didn’t allow him to put the video on YouTube.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t really help him. But in the meantime, my video editing skills have improved. So with the power of windows movie maker at my fingertips, I invited him down to rip the original off YouTube, and do some video magic.

I knew his earlier versions were quite crude, so we didn’t sway much from his original vision of quite a disgusting little chat between old pals.

The end result — while I’m sure could easily be topped on a crudeness scale, but will still be offensive to some — actually turned out not bad.

Hope you enjoy!

Canada tokes at 4 times the world average

I’m finally proud to be a Canadian!

Canada pot flag

According to a recent UN report, Canada tokes at 4 times the world average:

Canadians use marijuana at four times the world average, making Canada the leader of the industrialized world in cannabis consumption, a recent United Nations report found.

The 2007 World Drug Report by the UN Office on Drugs and Crime says that 16.8 per cent of Canadians aged 15 to 64 smoked marijuana or used another cannabis product in 2006. The world average is 3.8 per cent.

But it looks like we have some serious smoking to do if Canadians really want to take on the world leaders in marijuana consumption:

In the report, Canada ranks fifth in the world for marijuana use, behind Ghana at 21.5 per cent, Zambia, 17.7 per cent, and Papua New Guinea and Micronesia with 29 per cent each.

Anyone up for a trip to Micronesia?

Until then, why don’t we shake this square world and blast off for Kicksville:

LTJ Bukem gets Mashed up

Published by rickswerve June 7th, 2007 in music, internet, video, drugs, high weirdness, bizarre, stupid, philosophy, funny, electronic, cool and mashup. 0 Comments

Rick Swerve stayed up a little late last night, had a few hits off of a tasty old bong — otherwise known as Mt. Baker — and decided to take his first foray into the exciting world of video editing.

The end result of course displays my raw technical skills, but the video also overflows with the untapped creativity of a talented young artist just waiting to break free from the shackles of our oppressive and rigid society.

So sit back, relax, and groove with LTJ Bukem, MC Conrad, and the fine visual effects of Rick Swerve in “LTJ Elderly” — HotnStinky’s first contribution to the venerable YouTube universe.

Bjork inspires somes fancy footsteps

Published by rickswerve May 8th, 2007 in music, video, bizarre, partying, funny and cool. 0 Comments

I was thinking about posting a video of Bjork performing her new single “Earth Intruders” on SNL. I’ve always been somewhat indifferent to Bjork, liking some of her tunes, but the SNL performance of Earth Intruders was pretty cool, with the worst part being that it still features a bit too much of Bjork’s trademark shrieking.

The problem is that SNL had YouTube take down the clip. I guess too many people were actually enjoying their show for a change…

I couldn’t find a repost of the clip, but I did manage to find these fancy moves inspired by Bjork’s latest release:

Reggie Watts: Out of Control

Published by rickswerve May 3rd, 2007 in music, video, electronic, cool and technology. 0 Comments

This is a very cool tune performed by Reggie Watts. Every sound is made with his mouth, as he loops different beats while singing and basically scatting.

As a rule, I don’t like beatboxing, but this guy takes it to new places.

Sit back, and enjoy.

If you liked that tune by Reggie, here’s another video by a guy named Kid Beyond from San Fran. He’s not as cool as Reggie, and the video is a bit of an ad for the software that allows you do this, but Kid Beyond is still pretty good and it explains how this is all done.
