augiemania ORLY?

Today is a dark day…

Today I shave my facial hair. I was going to go until Valentines Day, but then something came up.

The song is Thanks for the Misery by Reggie and the Full Effect.

A note to Reggie and the Full Effect:
Don’t take this vid down. I am a huge fan and went to see you like 2 years ago at a place I’d rather not mention (so I can maintain my now professional relationship with them). You played all three sets. I high five’d you like 20 times during the first set. I then had to pee bad before the second act. The line was long and I was about to pee my pants. (I was also pretty drunk.) So I decided so pee in a garbage pail. I was then kicked out of the show. Me keeping this video up with your song in it balances out the fact I missed the rest of your show.

Anonymous vs Scientology: My Thoughts

Scientology is an evil corporation that manipulates, blackmails, and even murders people. It poses as a religions and uses a type of brainwashing to get it’s believers to fork over life savings. Celebrities don’t see this side because they are treated as “royalty.”

L. Ron Hubbard was a science fiction writer, who won a bet.

Anonymous is legion, everywhere, whatever, we’ve all seen the vids. I support all types of activism against organized religion and corporations, but i think Anonymous is missing the point.

Anonymous is an umbrella term used to describe a large group of people on the internet. These people find ways to amuse themselves. Sometimes they “raid” places like Habbo Hotel, or MySpace, but it is done for “teh lulz” (a corruption of lol). Never were they intended as political actions.
People new to Anonymous can easily get swept into the freedom of the group and do it wrong. DOS’ing Scientology is funny. Handing out pamphlets in front of Churches is political…NOT THE POINT OF ANONYMOUS.

Anonymous gets together in the dark corners of the internet, share some pics, tell a story, and laugh together…but this “hackers on steroids” bullshit is getting taken too far. The term “Internet Hate Machine” was coined by FOX news in LA for some BS story to make people fear nothing. Anonymous co-opted the term ironically, and laughed. Why did they laugh? BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT A HATE MACHINE. THEY DO NOT CARE ENOUGH. It’s just a funny joke. People who take this seriously, ESPECIALLY THOSE WITHIN ANONYMOUS, just fail.

Anonymous, I have this advice for you. Don’t take yourself too seriously with this Scientology thing, you never did before. Also, Scientology is massive, handing out pamphlets, DOS’ing sites, and making silly videos wont stop them. Seriously. Just live your life, and let those in your personal lives know the dangers you’ve uncovered. There is no need to act like 16 year olds….oh wait, you are 16 year olds.

TL;DR LURK MOAR

Homosexuwhales in the Interbutts…and on TV!

Homosexuwhales has gotten some major press in the past two days, here are some of the accolades:

Featured on BestWeekEver.tv
A featured video on FunnyorDie.com
19,000 23,000 hits on YouTube…IN ONE DAY!!!
Featured on the January 25th, Attack of the Show on G4 TV, as an EPIC FAIL!!!

Awesome.

My only complaint is that Olivia Munn (eye candy) said that “the concept was better when it was Planet Unicorn“, a video the DAPS staff hasn’t seen until Best Week Ever made the comparison.

Planet Unicorn is a very popular video, and we welcome the comparison, but an outright claim that we stole the idea? I’m a little peeved. Having been in the comedy business for a number of years now, I understand what it means to steal material. Hacks steal, we don’t.
