Guess where that name comes from, I dare you.

While you’re guessing, have a song about a lost sheep.

Utterly, utterly sad.

WON’T SOMEONE PLEASE FIND THIS LITTLE SHEEP’S MUM? OH DEAR GOD!

Proof: posted to the ugc video sharing site youtube on 19th February 2009.

In internet terms this is, in fact, a very old hat. Or old cheese. Runny, old cheese.

Well, so much for our journalistic integrity on reporting just the facts. Of course we have to post this. It’s (yet another) Star Wars related video. And this is what this site, the safe haven for embedded Star Wars nerdism, is all about.

So without further ado, please do applaud these true heroes of our time for their bravery in, er, science. Or something like that. There’s a Tesla coil, so it must be something to do with science. Possibly.

Power! Unlimited power!

The most important thing in life is to watch crazy, stupid stuff on the internets. Obviously!

This short little video was done by Cyriak, animation genius with a demented sense of reality. Or maybe he has escaped from a mental institution. It really doesn’t matter.

After watching this video, all those years of therapy, self-reflection and analysis will be for nothing. Your brain will turn into a mushy mess. Lovely!

Meet Ted:

Ted is a friendly neighborhood baker from Greenwich Village in Manhattan. Ted was so stoked by the election of Barack Obama to the Presidency that he decided to bake a tribute in his honour.

Here is Ted’s tribute:

I won’t say anymore – but the video to this story is a thing of beauty – a rare piece of natural comedy genius.

Not because Batman he suddenly realised that the Terminator franchise has been squeezed to death by the previous movie and the horrible TV series (except that strangely hot Summer Glau Terminatrix chick), oh noes, something much more sinister happened: The director of photography walked on the set and was distracting Batman Christian Bale. Batman Poor guy couldn’t concentrate on the scene (probably something really important like pressing a button in front of a bluescreen) and had no other choice than to voice his anger. Also, I hear he had an upset tummy from eating too many bean burritos from the lunch van.

Now with stuff like that happening in the times we live in, sooner or later it goes viral on that internet thing the kids use. And then it gets mashed, remixed and put on youtube for the rest of us.

Final proof that threats, swearing and danceable beats mix so well together:

What the fuck is it with you?

So for all the other people out there that do visit this site, my fellow internet losers, let me explain what Mark Gormley is all about.

I first saw his masterpiece Without You about 2 weeks ago, laughed about it but found myself playing it over and over again. Seriously.

Mark looks a bit like your average science teacher. Or if you prefer, your average normal white guy, age 45plus with a moustache. He seems not to care too much about his appearance and ist just doing his thing. More or less, he appears to have given up on any sorts of prospects for the foreseeable future and is recording his songs and putting them out there for all of us to see as a hobby to disctract from a boring life. At least that is my interpretation of him. Or in short, he’s a bit like Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force, but with a musical talent.

The videos themselves have little production value, mostly greenscreen with some cheapo effects and miserable CGI pulled from the archive of an old Amiga 500. Now, of course, this is just my interpretation and has by no means any validity. Like anything I say, really.

So that you know what I am talking about, let’s have a look at Without You. This is my favourite Mark Gormley song so far.

Now that you have seen that, what do you think? Is he a menacing predator or a nice guy?

Actually, he is a nice guy. After his videos on Youtube took off, unlike many other internet “stars” that go viral, Mark Gormley stays down to Earth (although he goes into space in many of his videos) and comes across as a rather nice guy. See here:

Godspeed, Mr Mark Gormley!

I have always dreamt of having eyes that could shoot lasers, or at least own a jet-pack like Boba Fett. I imagined how cool I would look. This was before I got beaten up in middle school for wearing a Star Wars is Forever T-Shirt, of course.

Now I am haunted in my nightmares by a bunch of school bullies with rocket powered jet-packs hunting me down an alley. But then out of nowhere appears Falkor, the luckdragon from Neverending Story and saves me. We then have ice-cream.

I tell you, looking into my mind is not pretty.

If I had lasers shooting from my eyes my dreams would look very different. And I would probably not need a Death Star after all.

You may fire when ready:

This awesome picture was made by Happy Toast from the b3ta community. All credits go to him.

Back off right there! My first impression, as usual, failed me. Just like that one time when I bought all that useless Jar Jar Binks merchandise because I thought he was gonna be BIG after Episode 1. Oh well …

What we’ve got here is a failure to communicate total work of utter brilliance and genius! Indeed it is!

Swede Mason, the artist behind this music video, has taken a simple quote from the cult movie Withnail & I (particularly popular amongst British students for its many drinking game possibilities. Just google this, will you?) and put some beats to it and … well. Turns out this is one of the best things on the Internet.
Ever.
For real.
I could (did, and will again) watch this for hours on end.

We’ve gone on holiday by mistake:
