‘Can’t Tase This’ and other ‘Don’t Tase Me, Bro’ mashups

- Humor, Internet, Videos, YouTube -

AS you might expect in the Age of Mashups, the “Don’t Tase Me, Bro” incident has given birth to a slew of user-generated web content — and heck, even games.

Here are some of them.

This one is “Can’t Tase This” from bradlee92.

Here’s “Don’t Tase Me Bro! Britney Spears Version,” which spoofs Britney’s new “Gimme Gimme More” single, from dragondonkey0070.

Latest BuggedCast episode

- Humor, Podcasts -

JAYVEE FERNANDEZ describes it as an attempt to bring back the Philippine radio drama.

Check out the latest BuggedCast episode, “Ang Buhay ni Boy.”

What do you think of the podcast? And come to think of it, what’s your favorite radio drama?

Mine would have to be “Gabi ng Lagim.” I still remember as a kid dreading having to go up after watching TV alone downstairs because I’d hear “Gabi ng Lagim” playing on the radio, heh :)

Would you buy the USB Humping Dog?

- Gadgets, Humor, Offbeat, Videos -

set_of_three_humping_dogs.jpgWE know that USB is pretty cool and all sorts of devices have come out making use of this technology. But this one takes the cake. It’s the USB Humping Dog which does nothing but… well, it’s pretty obvious what it does, right, heh :)

This thing is actually for sale at Digital World Tokyo. They come in three breeds — Beagle, Dalmatian and Chocolate Labrador.

The USB Humping Dog doesn’t contain any flash memory, OK — these dogs are made for humping, and that’s what they’ll do.

How to fight piracy? If you download a movie, you will be shot

- Humor, Piracy, Videos -

HERE’S a funny parody anti-piracy ad from the UK series “The IT Crowd” (whose US remake is supposed to debut this fall on NBC) that was, ahem, uploaded to YouTube. Don’t you just love irony?

Oh, and because you might get a kick out of it, here’s a blast from the past. It’s “Don’t Copy that Floppy,” the anti-piracy ad that the Software Publishers Association, now known as the Software and Information Industry Association, came out with in 1992, which is now enjoying a second life as a viral video thanks to sites like, ahem, YouTube.

A copy is also available for download at the Internet Archive. Yeah, I know you can find a lot of ways to download files off YouTube and other video sites, but why settle for the FLV file?

And speaking of irony, here’s a thought: this ad was talking about protecting creativity, but, really, how creative was this rapper dude ad? :) If you’re trying to convince people, would it hurt to come up with more interesting ways to convince them — and pay attention to the quality of your ads?
