Videos so infectious they make you itch

    This video cracks me up every time. Extremely clever filmmaking depicting the speed of a browser vs...well, see for yourself.

    Ever wish video games had a "Super Easy Mode"? So do the folks at "College Humor" videos. Check out Duck Hunt and Space Invaders.

    I honestly cannot make out what the robot is saying. But then, I can't make out what the kid is saying, either. Either way, this video creeps me out. Is this real? If so, we'd better start building Battlestars.

    Nothing too racy with this video, but it is absolutely hilarious. I guarantee you'll LOL at least once.

    Now this type of animation takes talent. This video depicts real life scenes being taken over by 8-bit video games.

    I gotta say, casting Snoop Dogg in this video was just brilliant. "I don't like you either, fool!" HA! Plus, he seems to be pretty handy with a lightsaber. The Star Wars scene are seemlessly integrated with product placement and cool cameos. Oh, and this appears to be some sort of sports-clothing commercial, but that's easy enough to overlook.

    I'm sure you've seen those videos or animated images that have you staring at the screen looking for something, or watching a peaceful scene when all of a sudden...BAM! You're hit with a horrifying image and complementary sound effect sting. Sure, I admit I jumped a bit. This dude, however, takes the cake.

    Ah, the wonderous place that is...live television. Enjoy.
