They’re Made Out Of Meat
Brilliantly funny short-film, They’re Made Out of Meat. I like the contempt with which they keep saying “they’re made up of meat”.

Neither have you tasted my Jesus
Author’s introduction on YouTube:
The following is an actual video response from this darling young girl. Only cartoons were added to enhance the story. I really debated putting this up, simply because I’m sure this girl is darling in real life. But I couldn’t help it. This is hilarious. Lydia, if you ever see this video: It’s nothing personal.

Another Jesus humor video. Come on get a sense of humor! I’m sure God has!

The 60’s counter-culture as reflected on Sesame Street back then.
The Knights who say Ni
Some good old Monty Python silliness.
Geek Humor
- Make me a sandwich – I had to explain this to a non-geek person, so thought I’d just reproduce it here: Linux system administrators tell computer systems to do a lot of things every day, but sometimes it will balkingly refuse to do certain [privileged] commands, in which case the system administrator rolls up his sleeve and prefixes the command with the divinely-ordained, all-powerful command — the sudo command (pronounced like pseudo). The joke also plays on the fact that system administrators (who haven’t gotten used to sudo’ing) often execute a command twice: once without sudo, realize their venerable mistake, then once again with sudo.

- Perception
- Bumper sticker: “If this is blue you’re going too fast” – If you didn’t get it, it’s based on the Doppler Effect. Which putting it simply, states that when you travel really fast (and I mean really really fast, as in at least 100,000 km/sec), it causes the wavelength of light to compress. Light is electromagnetic radiation (just like radio waves), and has a frequency/wavelength of vibration. The color of light is determined by its wavelength. Shorter wavelengths are towards the blue end of the color spectrum, and longer wavelengths towards the red end. So, when you travel very fast, red light shifts to a shorter wavelength causing it to become blue light.
Elementary, Dear Watson
Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson went on a camping trip. After a good meal and a bottle of wine they lay down for the night, and went to sleep. Some hours later, Holmes awoke and nudged his faithful friend.”Watson, look up at the sky and tell me what you see.”
Watson replied, “I see millions and millions of stars.”
“And what does that tell you, Watson?”
Watson pondered for a minute. “Astronomically, it tells me that there are millions of galaxies and potentially billions of planets.
Astrologically, I observe that Saturn is in Leo.
Horologically, I deduce that the time is approximately a quarter past three.
Theologicaly, I can see that God is all powerful and that we are small and insignificant.
Meteorologically, I suspect that we will have a beautiful day tomorrow.
What does it tell you?”
Holmes was silent for a minute, then spoke. “Watson, you born idiot. Some culprit has stolen our tent.”
