We have all seen them – infomercials. Those late night gems that tempt all Americans to trade an Andrew Jackson, minus one penny ($19.99) for the latest piece of plastic whatchamacallit to come out of China. You know the drill. They completely over-dramatize the level of difficulty associated with simple daily tasks, like putting on your shoes! And for some reason, millions of Americans take the brain bait.

Bending over to put on your shoes can be painful…ouch! Tired of sitting down to put on your shoes only to wrinkle your clothes? Well, suffer no more – introducing SHOEDINI!!

It’s 2:00 am. You can’t sleep and for some reason, this product really makes sense. I mean, I hate bending over to tie my shoes. Yeah, I definitely need this shoehorn on a stick.

I think you will enjoy the voice over satire on the Shoedini product by none other than Gilbert Godfried. Enjoy and have a laugh! You know you want this thing.

Hell, Gilbert might be the next Billy Mays. And, I just might be so inclined to buy more crap from these commercials if Gilbert was pushing them.

With over 180 million views and counting, we hope at that this point you have seen “Charlie Bit Me” – the wildly successful/viral video of a little boy who screams in agony due to the acute pain delivered by his baby brother’s little teeth. Well, here at WhatILikeOnTheWeb, we have love for those who take something that is already amazing and remix it/remake it into something new and even better. There isn’t much more that we can say to explain how freakin awesome this is, so we will just say – whomever is responsible for this video, we salute you!

Charlie Bit Me Auto Tune Remix:

Original Charlie Bit Me:

Imagine you are enjoying the day in the park and you suddenly feel the urge to use the restroom. Lucky for you there is a porta potty nearby and so you begin to make a beeline for your relief sanctuary. Now, imagine what it would feel like if after you have finished your personal business, you stepped into an office meeting – as if you magically walked through a porta potty portal.

Could this be Real? No, of course not. Funny? Oh, hell yes. The execution of this potty prank is stellar. Watch it in action below and then forward this post to your friends. You know you love potty humor! Now let the laughs begin. Hey, at least you will have something to talk about during your coffee breaks today, as you flee from your cubicle hell.

Got 5 seconds? Of course you do. Now, the question is, of course, what to do with those 5 seconds? Would you be interested in trading 5 seconds of your time to view a 5 second video skit that will have you laughing hysterically? If you are willing to trade your time for laughs, you need to go view the films over at…yes, you guessed it – 5secondfilms.com – AKA 5SF

About 5SF (from the site):
5-Second Films was created by Brian “Boss Man” Firenzi in the Spring of 2005, after being disappointed by so many 5,400-second films. The rules are simple: 2 seconds of beginning titles, 5 seconds of film, 1 second of end titles. If you take umbrage with these 5sfs running at an actual length of 8 seconds, we can only assume you’re no fun at dinner parties.

Now, let me be perfectly clear and issue these warnings:
1. Curses: Definitely ALOT of adult language – so…not always work safe, just sayin!
2. Risks: Chances are, when you start viewing these great skits, you will have a hard time just watching one video. I guess you can think of them as the “Lay’s” potato chips of the video arena.
3. Addiction: The humor is so clever it will have your wanting more. You will also be glad to know that the 5 Second Films team delivers a new video every weekday. So, for at least a brief moment each day, you can escape and enjoy some funnies.

Here are some to get you started:

You may know him as one of Rocky Balboa’s most formidable opponents, Captain Ivan Drago – a Russian boxer with incredible stamina and one helluva punch. So you can imagine my surprise when I saw Dolph Lundgren singing his face off at Melodifestivalen, an annual music competition organised by Swedish public broadcasters Sveriges Television (SVT) and Sveriges Radio (SR). What makes this even more awesome, is the fact that Dolph is singing an Elvis song. Who would have known that Dolph could pull that off? Got to admit, it’s pretty darn good!

And just for fun, Dolph throws in some karate moves and a drum solo! Yes, I said a drum solo.

Is there anything that Dolph can’t do? Well, he cant beat Rocky, we know that for sure. Oh, don’t act like you weren’t going to look up this Rocky fight. You know you wanted to see it.

ROCKY 4EVER!

If you are a gear head, gadget junky, photographer, software lover, etc., then surely, at one time or another, you have visited CNET to see what their opinion is on a piece of hardware or software. Have you ever wondered how a site like CNET goes through the review process? I have always wondered how they get it all done. The pictures, the videos, the written reviews, etc.  – it sure seems like a lot of work for each product they review. This job isn’t for those who can’t keep timelines, as the work-pace is fast and furious. CNET is a global leader in product reviews and has built a stellar reputation on the quality and thoroughness of their work. Below is a video detailing the CNET product review process – and it’s super cool.

Hulk Hogan, one of my childhood heroes, like many other children of the 80′s, has long been a cornerstone of Wrestling entertainment. The other night while I was watching re-runs of The Office, I could not believe what my eyes were seeing when Terry Hulk Hogan came sliding across the screen in a Rent-A-Center commercial. Yes!! I exclaimed, Hulk is back! I have always loved what Hulk has stood for – America, Freedom, & Kindness (well, except when he was with NWO – bleccchh).

I think the combination of Hulk Hogan and Troy Aikman is perfect! This commercial is pretty funny, once you get past the fact that two superheroes are peddling rent to own furnishings. Troy, an American football star – past quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys, delivers his pitch with no-hype and little excitement. Add some Hulk Hogan in the mix and you have instant excitement and over the top delivery!

The two opposite poles make for a light-hearted, funny combination. Cheers for the marketing department over at Rent A Center! While a regular commercial from them may go unnoticed, you can’t ignore Hulk Hogan.

I say more companies should have Hulk Hogan as their spokesperson. At least you will pay attention, BROTHER!

Somehow I found myself watching amazing golf shots on youtube tonight. Some of these shots defy what I thought would ever be possible in the sport of golf. The statistical chances are astronomical. From skipping a golf ball across a water hazard to bouncing a golf ball off someone else’s – I had to take a double take. I simply couldn’t believe it.

Vijay Singh skips his golf ball across a water hazard and gets a hole in one:

Lief Olson takes his shot to the whole by bouncing his golf ball off of someone elses:

Earlier today, while checking Twitter, I came across a  post from @tonyrobbins that floored me! I could not believe what I was seeing with my eyes when I clicked the link within his tweet. My jaw literally hit the floor and I immediately found myself wanting to participate. Dudes were base jumping off some monstrous cliffs in Norway and were literally flying through the air like birds with the aid of their wingsuits. What are wingsuits? Yeah, I asked the same question.

Wingsuits shape the human body into an airfoil which can create lift. This makes it possible to rip through the air like a fighter jet and break the rules on what is possible for a human to accomplish when challenging gravity. The wingsuit creates the unique airfoil shape with fabric sewn between the legs and under the arms. Ever seen a flying squirrel in action? Well that’s exactly what these suits look like. Anyways, enough with the technical stuff, take a look at the video and prepare to reattach your jaw.

Like Tony said in his tweet: MAKE SURE YOU MAXIMIZE THE VIDEO PLAYER to get the full experience!!
Also, listen for the hilarious expletive S**T at 3:28 – too funny.
