4 person high mosh tower at GTM is awesome and scary

By 30 April, 2013

Some brave souls created a 4 person high mosh tower at Groovin the Moo on the weekend. It’s fairly impressive.
Skills like these may have helped some people get free entry into the event.
The old man in me is worried about their health, the young man in me thinks it’s awesome, while the circus man in [...]

Canberra is like that Silent Hill movie

By 15 April, 2013

Nerom Eneas has found the heart of Canberra, which is apparently out the back of the Canberra Centre in Braddon, and is amused to find it empty.

Thoughts from BADSLAM

By 28 March, 2013

Local poet and video blogger Charlie J Quinn has put up some thoughts on BAD!SLAM!NO!BISCUIT! that are rather kind.

In this video (sorry they disabled embedding) we see three motorists turning around a corner at a dubious time.

Are these drivers doing the wrong thing?

Yes, all these anarchist scallywag motorists need to be taught to fear [...]

Remember Mr. Fibby’s musical bike?

By 20 March, 2013

Mr. Fibby‘s guitarist Zavi (sometimes known as Sam King) made a musical bike once. It was pretty great.
What’s also great is the fact that the guy posting this up seemingly has no idea who Mr. Fibby are. Then why is he posting this? How did he even get this footage?

Somebody is a little upset about the ANU med school

By 27 February, 2013

A Canberra music video playlist. An appeal to the hive mind

By 6 April, 2012

Having had some success with the virtual Corinbank playlist (and wasn’t it lucky we had at least a virtual Corinbank) it occurs to me we should have a playlist of Canberra music videos.
Rather than just picking the ones I know about and have remembered, or already featured, I’d love to get suggestions from you guys [...]

Macdonalds Kidsware ad’s from the 90′s?

By 23 January, 2012

Hey all,
I’ve just learnt that a good mate of mine was in pretty much every Macdonalds Kidsware ad aired between ’90 and ’00.
Does anyone have any recorded on tape or something and would be willing to put it on YouTube so I can watch it and make fun of him for eternity?
Cheers

Hardened Segway criminals rampaging along the lake foreshore

By 4 July, 2011

Segway scooters are famously not legal to ride in Australia either on the footpath, or upon the road.
But it is the way of scofflaw criminals to video themselves in breach of the law and publish it for all the world to see on YouTube.

By 30 June, 2011

This is probably the time to despair of the youth, or at least this portion thereof.

{First filed: Apr 19, 2010 @ 13:33]

The willingness of dimwits to Youtube themselves committing crime is a wonderful thing.
But local boy jacobb9595 has really excelled himself with a detailed videography of his closeted pot growing operation.
He’s also a keen homebrewer.
Why buy when you can make it yourself?
