For some reason, everyone I know really laughs when watching videos of some poor sap crushes their testicles on a handlebar, ricks their ankle , or breaks their neck falling off a stage. I don't understand it myself.

Fortunately the internet is a great empowerer, and just as this guy has the chance to express his desires for a mate, so we have the opportunity to press the stop button and move on with our lives. Can't wait to not see what is happening at allinyourhands.com next month!

King Kong meets Hans Christian Anderson! When Santa befriends a gingerbread man, he puts his friend on top of a Christmas tree and ends up being strafed by biplanes as!

Why is it funny when people hurt themselves in attempted stunts? Hold onto your privates or whatever it is tingles when you see someone in pain and watch this festive offering.

This is cynical enough for us to be included as a sort of Pisstake of Christmas, Christmas songs, nativity scenes and good old global warming. It is a really slow and black rendition, trying to get kids in the mood for the end of the world.

Guinness has spawned some very creative advertising campaigns, one of which is this trio's trip back in time. The meteor was a piece of genius, in our humble opinion.

And just to put you in the picture about what Guinness can do: the amber, or rather, the black nectar from Ireland has been responsible for many things over the centuries. Drunken solace in times of famine; double vision diversion in times of plenty, and hang-overs most of the time, not just in Ireland.

Guinness and snooker

There was a time when you couldn't watch snooker on British TV without thinking of downing a pint of the dark ale. That was brilliant cross brand promotion, alcohol and sport. Some would say you cannot call snooker a sport, and Guinness isn't everyone's idea of booze, but whatever you think of glorified pool for gentlemen, there is no better product to promote it than Guinness - a pint that takes 6 minutes to pour properly!!

Admittedly, there is a better product, but the industrial coatings industry is yet to come up with a fun way to watch paint dry.

Everyone has ridden a bike at some stage in their life, but not like this guy. No doubt he fell off a few times in the making of the video, and scared a few fish and car drivers, but there have to be some enhanced movie cuts and special effects in there too, right?

Thanks to Odd news for this link to the world's worst burglar. There is a long list of contenders for this title however.

There was a desperately thick character in Britain who walked into a bank with a gun, went up to the cashier and pushed a note under the glass. The bank employee read the menacing message and calmly handed over about £5000 ($9000). The robber disappeared and the cashier sounded the alarm. Before the robber had even got to the end of the street, the police were already making their way calmly to his house to lay in wait. The dumbass had written the note on the back of a pre-printed paying-in slip - for his own account.

Burglar tied up by elderly folk

This story from New Zealand was picked up by the Taipei Times. Can you follow this tortuous route to our website? The whole incident is very embarrassing. There were mumblings that the embarrassment of such a cock-up would soften up the judge, but he was having none of it..

Burglar loses face

An incompetent burglar captured and hog-tied by elderly members of a petanque club was a "laughing stock" in prison and would never again be able to hold his head up in criminal circles, his lawyer said yesterday. Clinton Michael Dearman, 38, was captured and tied up by arriving members after he broke into the club in Christchurch on Dec. 11.

The humiliation Dearman had suffered as a result of media publicity should be taken into account in sentencing, his lawyer said. But Judge Michael Crosbie showed little sympathy, sentencing Dearman to two years and four months in jail.
