Friday Funday brings you some fun and interesting links from my travels around the internet. Funday links will open in a new window.

Wassup 2008 [del.icio.us]

You’ve probably already seen this by now, since every blog except mine has linked to it, but this is a new, 2008 version of the infamous Wassup video. It even features the original cast!

Swan Lake – Zeno Music Visualiser [del.icio.us]

The Waltz from Tchaikovsky’s Swan Lake suite as rendered by the Zeno Music Visualiser. The visuals for this video are completely computer generated.

Between The Seconds [del.icio.us]

Pictures from the moments between the seconds.

David Blaine Street Magic: YouTube Edition! [del.icio.us]

We’ve all seen David Blaine doing his street magic. You may have even seen the videos on YouTube, like I did. Here’s a little spoof of those videos. If you like this one, be sure to check out part 2 and part 3.

Totally Looks Like [del.icio.us]

From the I Can Has Cheezburger family comes Totally Looks Like. Some of these are dead-on.

XM Wild Ride [del.icio.us]

A neat little Flash ad where you control a car with a hippo and a giraffe, listen to some cool music, and play some goofy games.

St. Louis Fire Department Engine Crash [del.icio.us]

Since I saw this on the news, chances are you’ve already seen it too, but in case you haven’t, it’s freakin’ awesome. What I want to know is, did the other fire engine stop to help, or keep going to the house fire? Full story here.

The Fly and The Eye [del.icio.us]

This surreal short is a “viral ad” for Black Thinking, a new clothing line.

Scarlet Takes A Tumble [del.icio.us]

To say that Scarlet, the woman in this video, takes a tumble is putting it mildly. Scarlet falls on her ass. The first couple of minutes are boring (and frankly, kind of annoying). Skip ahead to about 2:40 to see the action.

Hollywood Director Attack Ads [del.icio.us]

The premise of this video is, “John McCain turns to famous Hollywood directors for help with his attack ads.” The last one is done in the style of Wes Anderson, and whoever directed this absolutely nailed it. I nearly exploded at work from holding back the laughter. Via Mike.

HMS Hood [del.icio.us]

A 20 foot long model of the HMS Hood done in Legos. The size and attention to detail are impressive.

Who Put this Dick on My Back? [del.icio.us]

Subtle, but clever.

Cat Flushing A Toilet Music Video [del.icio.us]

Title says it all.

Hunting with Palin [del.icio.us]

Set in Alaska, this Flash game has you hunting moose, wolves, and Russians. There’s also a bonus “aerial hunting” round!

Palin as President [del.icio.us]

A terrifying look into a future that I can only hope doesn’t come true.

BP Explorer [del.icio.us]

Despite the limited hours of use (9 A.M. to 9 P.M. in Australia) and the annoying sound effects, controlling a little vehicle with a camera on it over the Internet is pretty freakin’ sweet.

Papervision3D [del.icio.us]

A 3D underwater scene done in Flash. In Flash, people!

I Love Progress Bars [del.icio.us]

This guys makes a good point. Via Emily.

Take On Me: Literal Video Version [del.icio.us]

This video always was kind of weird. And the girl still doesn’t pay for her food!

7-35 In The Morning [del.icio.us]

Any attempt to describe this would only ruin it.

Red links are not safe for work.

Diesel SFW XXX [del.icio.us]

You’ve probably already seen this (I knew I should have posted this last week), but look! It’s safe-for-work porn! (Porn may not be safe for work)

Sarah Palin Disney Trailer [del.icio.us]

“An Alaskan hockey mom becomes Vice President in the wackiest family comedy of the year! Sound familiar?”

monkey’s butt is red [del.icio.us]

This popped up on BoingBoing a couple of weeks ago. I thought it was cool, so here it is for those of you who don’t read BoingBoing (what’s wrong with you?).

Devendra Banhart – Carmensita [del.icio.us]

This is officially the most awesome music video I’ve ever seen.

Wario Land: Shake It [del.icio.us]

This is what advertising needs to do to get our attention. It’s fairly subtle at first, and just when you’re thinking, “wait… How did they-” it all becomes clear. I can’t even imagine how much this must have cost Nintendo.
