The Great “Mr. Fancy Pants” Duel

Jan 24, 2010 Author: Veronica | Filed under: babble, funny, music, out and about

Doesn’t this totally remind you of the rap battle from 8 Mile? No?

The amazing beatboxer Kid Beyond (who I first heard at w00tstock back in the fall) did a damn good job going up against Jonathan Coulton and his ZenDrum, but in the end I’ve gotta give it to JoCo. I’m a sucker for BeyoncĂ©.

The rest of the show, by the way, was also great. Although, Paul and Storm let me down a little, with only a 12 minute long version of The Captain’s Wife’s Lament. DEJECTED ARRR!!!

Droid SMS alert on the iPhone

Nov 1, 2009 Author: Veronica | Filed under: apple, babble, funny, video

Ryan has been quite taken by the Droid SMS alert sound (as evidenced by the most recent gdgt podcast) so I decided it would be fitting to make it his ringtone on my iPhone when he calls.

Unfortunately, I realized after the fact that it would have been much funnier to make it the default ringtone on his phone for all calls. You can get the sound here for your own personal enjoyment.

I used MakeiPhoneRingtone after converting the .wav to .aac, but you can also use Fission, GarageBand or the myriad other methods available.

As if Anthony Bourdain could get any more animated!

Oct 26, 2009 Author: Veronica | Filed under: babble, food, funny, internet, video

If The Venture Brothers and Aqua Teen Hunger Force came together and had a little lovechild with No Reservations, I have a feeling it would look like the newest project from Anthony Bourdain and The Travel Channel. The aptly-named Anthony Bourdain’s Alternate Universe is a completely animated series that delves deep into the twisted mind of the celebrity chef (and it looks like there will be more than a few Rachel Ray jokes).

Anthony is one of my idols, not only because of his on-air persona, but because it’s so obvious that he loves what he does (even when he’s frustrated during a shoot, which I find especially hilarious and relatable). In the spirit of Tony, I’ll say that I’m looking forward to his new project almost as much as he looks forward to a new, exotic pork dish.

I tweeted this out last week, but I wanted to give some extra love to the RiffTrax guys for inviting me to guest star on their latest video short, American Thrift Part 1! My ultimate goal is to sell more copies than Tron, which featured Jonathan Coulton and Paul and Storm.

At only $.99, American Thrift is thrifty indeed! Help a girl out, we gotta take these rock stars down a few pegs.
