I'll bet you didn't know that "I Hate You" from The Voyage Home was a real song.
Well, it is. At least, it's longer than the clip used in the movie. Incidentally, it was recorded by ultraobscure (as in, the band was a bunch of people from the sound department working on Star Trek IV, and they only recorded this one song) band Edge of Etiquette and the punk on the bus was played by associate producer Kirk Thatcher, who also wrote the lyrics.

Scotty, Data, and "It is green."
Green Aldebaran whiskey and red Starfleet uniforms, what could be more festive than that?

Controlling Mario 1 with a theramin.
If you don't know what a theramin is, just knowing that it's a stringed musical instrument should be enough to know how hard it'd be to use as a controller.

Er... are you sure you know what a theremin is, Nate? Much like Ultron, there are no strings on it. (It's also like Ultron in being completely electronic.)
That was neat. There are quite a few interesting spins on Mario 1 to be found on YouTube; here are two of my favourites.

It's okay, Nate, we got some new forum titles out of it.

Freaky Dot Patterns
I've shilled for Numberphile before, but I found their newest video particularly interesting. Optical illusions and related subjects have long been an interest of mine.

What, really? I didn't realize you could tell personality cores apart just by looking. But yeah, now that I check, Wheatley's "eye" is blue.
That said, the title is sort of self-fulfilling. Apparently that avatar did make me stupider.

Someone put a slinky on a treadmill and started both going. Then they backed it with overblown "epic" music to drive home the point.
It's strangely relaxing...

Dave Barry is still doing year-in-review columns! Here's the one for this year. Funny stuff as always.

Someone has connected a motion detector to a set of Tesla coils such that you can act like a supervillain and summon lightning.
It's things like this that make me proud to be a nerd.

A "music box" version of the Duck Tales Moon theme.
Every once in awhile you want a nice, simple, relaxing version of a classic song.

The trailer for the (fake) Oregon Trail Movie.
Hey, if Where's Waldo, Minesweeper, and Tetris can have movie trailers, why not Oregon Trail?

The Magic School Bus: The Movie Trailer
What can I say about the Magic School Bus that would be profound and not stupid? I'm stumped...
