Katy Perry and 3OH!3 get together… for a single

This has apparently been around for a couple of months, but I’m just catching it. Check out the team-up of Katy Perry and 3OH!3 for the band’s “Starstrukk” single, with a twist. It’s part of the soundtrack for the upcoming “When In Rome” flick that stars Kristen Bell.

Foo Fighters’ new video – “Wheels”

Love this band, and think they’re one of the better groups in the last decade or so. Always interesting to be old enough to pay attention to that sort of thing. Blah.

Check out “Wheels,” their latest video.

Drake, Kanye, Lil Wayne & Eminem KILL it on “Forever”

Now I could be totally wrong, but I’m pretty sure this song is probably illegal in a number of states because it’s pure heat.

Make sure you wait until the end. Eminem absolutely destroys this track. Wow.

Wu-Tang Lego hawtness

I’m not really sure how I missed this last month, but I did. Needless to say, huge props go out to my pal Tim who forwarded it along today with the message “dude – you will totally appreciate this…” And was he ever right.

Check out this interpretation of Wu-Tang Clan’s “Da Mystery of Chessboxin” — Lego style.

Lara’s (Impromptu) Fairmont Commercial

So it’s Thursday night, the last night of our trip to Whistler, Vancouver, and Seattle, and we’re staying at the Fairmont Olympic Hotel here in Seattle. We found an amazing room while shopping online a few days back, and given my penchant for the Fairmont (we ate dinner, tea, and a number of trips to the outdoor bar at the one in Whistler this past two weeks and spent some time with the awesome team over there), we figured it was a great way to close out our trip to stay at this hotel. After checking in and dropping off our stuff, we headed out to Purple for some wine and dinner with a friend, and came back to the Fairmont to change before walking down towards the Puget Sound.

Upon, returning, let’s just say we got the excellent treatment from the staff here at the hotel. I’ll let the video tell the story. There’s an s-word or two if you’re into censoring those sort of thing, so cover the kiddies’ ears. Otherwise, enjoy Lara’s finest video to date.

We’ve got lots more video to come to share with everyone, but I thought this was just to rich not to post asap. Cheers!

Riff really wants that shadow

Riff the cat is officially not the brightest bulb in the house, although he has officially decided that chasing shadows, glinty objects, and light refracting through wine glasses is his new thing to do. How fascinating.

Weezer’s new “homage” to all things meme-y

You’ve gotta love the video for Weezer’s new “Pork and Beans” video. Clocking in at just over 1.3 million views (in the “official” version put on YouTube by the band) since its arrival on YT on Friday, it’s moving on up. To boot, they’ve got a SLEW of side content from the various video shoots that you’ve just got to check out.

Props to @veronica and anyone else I happened to read on Twitter who’d mentioned it.

I can’t get rid of students I don’t know on LinkedIn!

Okay, so for the latest edition of “How Not To Be Annoying On The Internet,” I chose to pick on (sorry, Mario) LinkedIn, because I can’t seem to choose “I don’t know anyone here” when it comes to the social network’s suggestions of fellow students at institutions that I’ve gone to, while I can do so for businesses that I’ve worked at.

I dug around their FAQs and other places for a reason for this, but couldn’t find out, so I thought I’d have some fun with it. Anyone else think this is just a bit peculiar?

Today’s Internet video fun

Chris has already called me insane, but that doesn’t mean that the latest iteration of “How Not To Be Annoying On The Internet” isn’t amusing. Well, at least that’s what I think.
