FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

New York City — In a “launch” attended by absolutely no media, fans or even casual onlookers, the iLaugh Comedy Corporation (hereinafter referred to as “the Corporation”) today announced, within the confines of its dead-silent boardroom, the availability of its new website http://www.ilaugh.com/.

It's 5:00 on a Monday, which means we have no time for our usual incisive political commentary. But Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is in New York talking giving a talk about 9/11, apparently called "(If) I Did It." Isn't that weird?
And now, a Photoshopped pic of his amusingly De Niro-esque expression.
Unless you've been living under a rock — or for that matter, living in Iraq (LOL @ war!) — then you'll have experienced the "Rickroll" phenomenon by now.
But if not...first of all, bring the troops home! And second, Rickrolling is a practical online joke in which you claim to send someone a "totally awesome link" while actually redirecting them to a video of Rick Astley's "Never Gonna Give You Up," the shitty, '80sed-out dance-pop song. Read more »
Farfour — the lovable, squeaky-voiced, terrorist propaganda-spewing mascot of Palestine's Al-Aqsa TV (a sort of Hamas PBS) — is dead. In the final episode of the kids' show Tomorrow's Pioneers, he gets the rat droppings pounded out of him by an Israeli official who tries to buy his land. Apparently there's some kind of political parable going on here, but it's over our heads. Read more »
Heard the one about the crooked cop who confiscated a bag of pot, baked them into brownies with his wife and then called 911 because he was convinced he was dying? Normally these guys are more into the donuts, but I'll bet his eyes were plenty "glazed" after this episode.
Check out the playback from the actual phone call he made, in which he tests his theory that time is standing still by checking up on his favorite sports team. Pure Acapulco Gold.
Just testing a theory here. Does nobody else see the resemblance between actress Rosario Dawson from Grindhouse and the monstrous Xenomorph from Alien?
Tell me I'm imagining things, faithful readers!
Are you one of those weirdos with both a foot fetish and a vagina fetish? Now you can get both your rocks off at the same time.
With the SiFeet Pussy Foot (sort of NSFW so stick
http://www.stockroom.com/SiFeet-Pussy-Foot-P2958.aspx in your browser), you can get yourself a sexy silicone model of a woman's foot, complete with sparkly pink nail polish. Oh...and did we mention the sole includes "a fully functional and totally fuck-able silicone vagina"?!

Talk about carving out a niche: The Suicide Food blog is devoted to documenting ads that portray animals as being happy — no, delighted — to participate in their own slaughter, consumption and ultimate excretion. You've probably noticed this kind of thing before, like that lounge-singing spokescow for HP sauce. Read more »
So iLaugh was on MSN the other day, talking to our many friends, when we saw an ad for the Lone Star Texas Grill — a Canadian restaurant franchise specializing in Tex-Mex grub.
Anyway, the ad was for their "Talk Like a Texan" contest, in which one submits home-spun Southern witticisms in the hope of winnin' free vittles. As the contest states, "Texan sayings are among the coolest and most creative expressions around — that's why we're looking for more!"
Some of the previously winning entries were indeed quite clever, like "You've got more nerve than a bum tooth." But we feel our entries are fixin' to kick more ass than, say, an extremely abusive father-in-law of some sort.
Take a peek an'/or a gander... Read more »
As much as we've tried to stem the tide of illegal aliens pouring in from south of the border (not Taco Bell, but Mexico), there are still tens of millions of illegal immigrants residing in the U.S. and many others waiting to grab their own slice of the American Frito pie. Read more »
Know what's hilarious? A couple of foul-mouthed drunks from Jersey yelling "remixed" dialog over old clips from Saved by the Bell. That's what's freakin' hilarious.
There is nothing remotely ironic, satirical or even clever about this, yet it's nigh vomit-inducing in its hysteriosity. Anti-humor at its very best. Watch how it's done:
Okay, this is just weird. Anyone who thought investment brokers nowadays were nothing more than depraved, misogynist overgrown frat-boy types need only watch this video from the Roth Capital Partners Conference in Laguna Niguel.
The juxtaposition of Ludacris spitting his blingin'-ass lyrics and his go-go hoes dancing in the background, with a bunch of silver-haired suits glued to their cell phones, is enough to convince anyone that today's businessmen are just as influenced by Gecko from Wall Street as they are by Biggie from Ready to Die.
Peep game:
ENGLAND (JOLLY, OLD) - Illusionist David Blaine today set the Guinness World Record for Jackassery, after announcing his intentions to perform another pointlessly dangerous stunt in Piccadilly Circus later this month.
Blaine — known for his public stunts in which he irritatingly manages to avoid death — attracted attention last summer when he chose to sit atop a 100-foot (30.5-meter) pole for 100 hours (96 metric hours) inside a plastic box above the river Thames, while wearing diapers. Read more »
From the Pointless Nitpicking Dept:
I use Yahoo! Mail on a near-daily basis. Like many corporate, family-friendly tryhard sites, the splash page features cutesy stock photos of happy-looking people in order to draw in customers. Read more »
You know you've been seen way too many cheesy, cliché movie trailers when you're reading an article about how circumcision prevents HIV prevention...when suddenly you can literally, physically hear that record-scraping sound in your head: You know, when the needle abruptly slides off the turntable after someone says something particularly zany?
