eBay gets violent for charity
I’m sure you’re all sick of hearing about that d-bag Michael Vick, but this time there’s actually some good news! Twenty-two Michael Vick football cards ? each of them were chewed up and slobbered on by the seller’s dogs ? went for $7,400 on eBay this week. The seller, Rochelle Steffen, is going to donate all the money to the Humane Society. Other eBay users tried to do the same thing, but Steffen’s auction is the only one that’s gotten a lot of attention so far.
And mark your calendars: Vick’s sentencing is only a few months away (Dec. 10). Start planning your theme parties now!
Fun things to do with your hands
The blogs are being silly and temperamental, so I never know on any given day whether they’ll work or not. HOWEVER, today is one of those sweet days where it does work. So let’s celebrate with a YouTube treat. This was put up sometime in June, but reader (well, maybe reader…I’m not sure) Rachel Roscoe just shared with me and everyone I love. It’s a little hand dance called “Daft Hands,” set to Daft Punk’s “Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger.” I challenge any of you out there to draw on your hands and learn this for yourself. You’ll spend so much time practicing alone that you’ll probably lose contact with all your friends…but at least you’ll have YouTube to keep you warm.
Back!
Hey, world. Our blog server problems have been solved (for now…) so I’ll start posting again tomorrow! Look for it 
So krispy
In the tradition of such timeless catchphrases as “money in the bank,” “snap yo fangas,” and, most recently, “buy you a drank,” newcomer Kinfolk Kia Shine is here to give us our latest fix. Click here to watch the video for the single “I’m So Krispy.” Got that? “Krsipy.” Embrace it. Add it to your vocabulary. Use it daily.
‘The Hills’ is faker than a pair of Hollywood boobehs
Not that this should come as a shock to anyone, but reports are coming out that the MTV reality show “The Hills” is scripted. I kind of always knew that, but now that’s it’s proven I’m not sure how I’m supposed to feel. I mean, on the one hand, I feel better knowing that the people on the show don’t act that way in real life. But on the other hand, if it’s scripted, then the people on the show are just terrible actors. Either way, I’m just going to keep not watching it.
Is it a lawnmower? Is it Satan?
No, it’s just a dog. Well, to be exact, it’s the scariest dog EVER. I wouldn’t feel safe sleeping in the same house as this beast. Actually, come to think of it, I don’t really feel safe knowing that it exists at all. Click here to watch the demon in motion.
Warning: Make sure the volume on your computer isn’t too high when you watch this video. That dog is LOUD.
Roseanne, why do you still exist?
Can anyone translate Roseanne’s latest MySpace bulletin? We all know she’s gone crazy, but up until this point she’s usually been able to at least form coherent sentences.
As if a talking aardvark wasn’t creepy enough
If this picture disturbs you to your very core, then congratulations. You have a healthy sense of fear. Apparently, this is supposed to be Matt Damon. The actor will make an appearance on the September 3rd episode of “Arthur” on PBS. What the hell animal is he supposed to be, anyway? The ears and nose are pretty ambiguous. And…did they give him a little beer belly?
Twenty bucks says Matt Damon gets to second base with Muffy.
It’s like the original — only less annoying
OK, it’s not quite as ingenious as Alanis Morissette’s cover of “My Humps,” but it is just as unexpected. Click here to check out Mandy Moore’s easy-listening cover of Rihanna’s “Umbrella,” which she performed exclusively for Yahoo!
