YouTube has everything: Comic Sans typewriter
Every time you think you’ve seen everything, a new item hits your eyeballs and makes you question our very humanity.

Required viewing: Video for Royksopp and Robyn’s ‘Do it Again’
Ever since the announcement of the EP between Royksopp and Robyn was made, I’ve been excited about their collaborations. The EP is amazing, as expected, but now we’re getting more videos to pair it up, and it’s equally ambitious. Continue reading
‘Penn & Teller: Fool Us’ to get U.S. bow
Earlier this year I featured Penn & Teller’s “Fool Us,” a show that brings magic to TV with the nice twist of other magicians attempting to fool Penn & Teller. For those who didn’t catch it yet, you’ll get another chance soon. Continue reading
