    I loved the longcat poster in the background. Also, huge props for mentioning Andy Kaufman. That guy was (and still is to those who appreciate the classics) a legend of comedy.

  20. Boxing Day is a public holiday in the United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Hong Kong and countries in the Commonwealth of Nations with a mainly Christian population. In South Africa, this public holiday is now known as the Day of Goodwill. It is based on the tradition of giving gifts to the less fortunate members of society. Contemporary Boxing Day in many countries is now a “shopping holiday” associated with after-Christmas sales.
    This day is historically England’s name for St. Stephen’s Day. Saint Stephen was the first Christian martyr, being stoned to death in Jerusalem around A.D. 34-35. St. Stephen’s Day is usually celebrated on December 26, which is a public holiday in some countries or areas in Europe (UK, Germany, Alsace, northern part of Lorraine, Catalonia) and around the world with predominantly Christian populations. In the Eastern Orthodox Church, St Stephen’s Day is celebrated on the 27th of December, although in Greece the Greek Boxing Day (Synaxis Theotokou, Σύναξις Θεοτόκου) is also celebrated as a public holiday on the 26th of December and is not related to the English version
    For more see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxing_Day (You’ll also see an appeal from Wiki founder Jimmy Wales)

    Lipsynching? A meme? Come on, what’s with the lame “meme’s”? What’s next? Myspace Emo pictures?

    1. Yes, lipsynching is a meme. Also, speaking English is a meme. Shaving your face is a meme. Any cultural unit that is spread from one person to another and mutated in the process is a meme.

    The Numa Numa song is called “Dragostea din Tei” by O-Zone and it’s actually Moldavian.. (not german)
    it was a huge summer hit back here in Czech republic too, but after few weeks it was kinda gay…

    Hey,

    “Context is King!”, echoed the never-ending convex codex, emulating the complex vertex of the vanishing vortex-meme.

    I knew a girl in high school who would lip dub a big air-kiss smooch to anyone and everyone at random periods throughout the day, with no audio, letting the imagination fill in the sound; within the context of friendly flirtatiousness. She was very popular–voted ‘the most popular’, actually, by both boys and girls alike, in the end.

    The song is actually Romanian, the members of the group were born in Moldavia, but moved to Romania and wrote their song in Romanian, as a quick google search points out.
