Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
And now, I give you Payday Joe, the catchiest commercial jingle since Dan’s Discount Windows and Doors. It’s been around a while, but I’ve noticed lately that it’s had a resurgence thanks in large part to the Fight Network which seems to have given DollarsDirect a sweetheart deal on approximately 3 trillion ad slots.

I don’t know anyone who’s been conned to a dangerous degree, but I have known people who watch, believe and may have even sent them money a time or two though I can’t prove that last one, only suspect it. Even so, I hope that if hell is a real place, that there’s an extra …
People have been shitting all over it, but to my ears there’s not a thing wrong with the version of O Canada that Nelly Furtado sang at the NBA All-Star game. Is it a bit different? Sure. But it’s not *that* different, and it’s certainly nowhere near as horrifying as people on Twitter made it …

At some point today, I’ll bet a lot of you are going to pause, gaze off into space whilst lost in the deepest of thought and wonder to yourselves how do they keep these McDonald’s restaurants so gosh darn clean? Well, here’s how. I know that’s supposed to be a fake Michael Jackson, but doesn’t …
I was certain that one of us had already posted this, but since I can’t seem to find it, here’s Smells Like Teen Spirit as performed by various hard and floppy disk drives.
