The End Of The Internet: The Daily Nooner (EST)!

Awesome Video Of The Day

Live Action Garfield

I spend a lot of time here on the Cracked Blog making fun of stuff. Sometimes I make fun of idiots who genuinely deserve ridicule. Other times it’s people who probably didn’t really deserve it, people who innocently put themselves out there on the internet and happened to look kind of stupid at the same time. Does that make me a jerk? No - that makes me a BLOGGER. People looking stupid is what fuels the internet’s hilarity engine, okay? You know how they say you can’t make an omelet without breaking a few eggs? Well you can’t make an internet without crushing a few souls, either.

But today is different! Today’s video is too special to make fun of, and the guys who made it are way too awesome to berate. Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for LasagnaCat.com.

I’m not totally sure why someone decided to recreate Garfield strips in live action, but they sure did a good job! From the obsessive-compulsive attention to detail (even the background shading matches), to the ridiculous music videos, these clips just melted my face off with their brilliance.

They also make me a little bit nervous, though. Is this going to be the next big internet thing? Are people going to start making bizarre live action recreations of Dilbert and Cathy now? That would be okay for a while, but I’m worried that after it got old everyone would be like “Well, that was deranged - I can’t think of anything else” and the internet would be over. How can anything possibly top this?

I predict that by April the entire web will consist of eBay, Amazon, LasagnaCat and a handful of “MILF” porn sites.

Oh - and Cracked.com, of course. Only by April, Cracked.com will be a “MILF” porn site.

The “Full” Bugs Bunny

Monday, October 1st, 2007

All-star Warner Bros. animator/director/producer Friz Freleng died twelve years ago at the age of 89, and I’m guessing he did so with a smile on his face. I’d be smiling too if I carried around a filthy little secret for over half a century.

In 1942, Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd co-starred in a short cartoon called The Wabbit Who Came To Supper. It’s your typical Bugs Bunny joint, but the plot is completely irrelevant for our purposes here considering that the funniest joke in the whole cartoon (and quite possibly the funniest joke in the entire Bugs Bunny oeuvre) lasts only a fraction of a second, maybe 5 or 6 frames, tops.

Fast forward until there’s about 5:10 remaining (aka about 2:50 into the video) and keep your eye on the top of the towel when Bugs gets out of the shower.

Did you see that? Pull it back and try it again. You saw it that time, didn’t you? Hey, are okay? You look a little pale. You’re feeling dizzy? Here - sit down and let me get you some water. Oh, Jesus! Wake up!

You’re probably wondering what just happened. You know - right before you passed out? Let me give you a hint:

You just saw Bugs Bunny’s dick.

You’ve gotta wonder how in the name of God this happened. Was it an animator’s office gag that somehow slipped through the cracks, or a maniacal plot to subliminally warp the minds of children across America?

Another fairly important question: Is that really Bugs Bunny’s dick? It sure looks like it to me. Snopes.com is eerily silent on the subject. Thoughts, anyone?
