Liam Neeson tries his hand at comedy, with Ricky Gervais, Warwick Davies and Stephen Merchant. The results are hilariously unfunny. I’d forgotten about this until the other day, just rewatched it and almost passed out laughing.

Yeah, it’s a really funny show, it’s called Life’s Too Short. Warwick Davis runs an agency for dwarf actors, he plays himself as a real arrogant little dick. Ricky Gervais is in all the episodes, and there’s usually a big guest star in each one. Johnny Depp’s in one, can’t really remember any of the others though.
^Yeah, I remember reading and watching some promos for it before it came out. I’ve never gotten around to finding it yet, though.
Let’s face it, though . . . anything Warwick is involved in is gonna be golden.
Especially Willow!

Haha, class film, Madmartigan was the coolest character ever.
That was funny. That “An Idiot Abroad” show was hilarious, too.
Have you seen the episode from series 3 of An Idiot Abroad where Karl Pilkington and Warwick Davies go to Venice? It’s hilarious, Pilkington’s just having none of it and gets really annoyed with Warwick. At one point they go to a costume party, Karl gets pissed off and phone Ricky Gervais to complain about Warwick, mainly the costume he’s wearing to the party. Ricky asks what’s wrong with it and he says something like “He’s dressed like a tiny Adam Ant”. So funny. In all honesty, although most normal people would think Karl’s a weirdo with crazy views, i actually totally agree with him a lot of the time [:)]

Those are amazing, especially the one about Dracula’s centre parting.
Death Grips’ business model was a direct (and clumsy) ripoff of The KLF, but with better music. Discuss.

How so? I know very little about the former band so I’m not sure what the major points of comparison are.
KLF did a few conceptual pranks that I found interesting, like the “Doctorin’ the Tardis” single that eventually fueled the “How to Have a Number One Hit the Easy Way” book. And when they set fire to 1 million pounds in cash or whatever the amount was. And the copyright drama around “Whitney Joins the J.A.M.S.” etc.
So - I don’t know what the ‘Death Grips’ version of those stunts might be?
Both acts were intentionally fucking with the system (ie, the music industry, which seemingly had little to no idea what they were doing working with these acts in the first place) and both acts imploded intentionally in dramatic fashion at the height of their success (although the KLF did so with far more panache, while Death Grips kinda just came off as dickholes).
I may be stretching the comparison, but I had just re-read the KLF’s wikipedia page when I heard Death Grips split up, and for me anyways it struck a chord.

That is fucking hilarious! [:)]
The hell?
A long while back I was messing around on that chat roulette website where random people with webcams hook up with each other. It connected me with Snoop Dogg. He was sitting in a living room or something with 3 or 4 other black guys. He was smoking a cigarette, or possibly a joint I guess. It took me a moment to actually realize it was him. I typed “Snoop Dogg?!” and he nodded his head and then exited.
Well did you cum or what?

I think it’s pretty safe to say that it wasn’t a cigarette…
I’ve never met the cat, but I’ve heard several first-hand stories of Snoop encounters because he (I’m not sure if he still does or not) lived down this way and a decent number of colleagues and friends of mine crossed paths (some on a regular basis).
His little kids were in some local sports leagues down here and he was either a team manager or coach or something for at least one of the teams of 8 year olds and such.
Apparently all the other teams were typical middle-class suburbanites and selling candy bars to get their standard-issue uniforms and make their shitty bedsheet team banners and whatnot, but Snoop, of course, would just deck his teams out in balls-to-the-wall top notch gear and he’d roll in with some logo’d out low rider and such.
Of course it was always a spectacle and eventually, because it was such a distraction and the sports became basically “the Snoop show” they kindly asked him to cease his duties.
Pretty funny stuff. I’ll have to see if there’s any pictures on the web I can find.
Well did you cum or what?
Jesus christ, man, there’s just some things you don’t talk about in public!!
