Crazy Helicopter Video

Posted 6/26/2008 10:50 am by Stephanie Sturgis

I’ve purchased more than one remote control vehicle for my nephews with the ultimate goal of grabbing the controller out of their little hands in order take over the scaled down machines and drive them until their wheels fall off.

Even then I crash them more often than not.
But the king of the remote controllers may […]

Interpreting Joe Cocker

Posted 6/24/2008 12:22 pm by Stephanie Sturgis

I actually watched some goofy TV game show for the first time where contestants tried to recall the lyrics to popular songs with $$$ on the line. The top prize was a million bucks, but I’m guessing no one is ever going to grab that brass ring.
It was like watching drunks in a bar singing […]

Soccer and Transformers

Posted 6/18/2008 1:14 pm by Stephanie Sturgis

Never let it be said that Pop Fi doesn’t give a regular dose of sports stuff. Why, we’ve even covered a tiny soccer team and games for your dog.

It’s no secret that nearly everyone on the planet is mad for soccer, or as its known in most other locales on the globe, futbol.
In the past […]

Can You Pop Popcorn With Your Cell Phone??

Posted 6/09/2008 9:23 am by Stephanie Sturgis

Everyone knows we love a viral video here at Pop Fi.
Whether it’s an office worker going insane, an ugly divorce situation or the Obama kid, we try to keep on spreading the video love.
One of the latest to hit the Intertubes is a clip of folks using cell phones to heat up some kernels and […]

Office Worker Has Huge Meltdown

Posted 6/04/2008 5:11 am by Stephanie Sturgis

We’ve all gotten frustrated at work before.
The daily stresses sometimes push us to the edge.
But most of us pull ourselves back from the brink.
Then there are those folks who go careening over that precipice and land in Crazyville.
Think back to the hedgehog tossed in anger issue Pop Fi has covered for you.
That seems very harmless […]

Weird Creepy Pencil Face

Posted 6/03/2008 11:57 am by Stephanie Sturgis

I ran across this video produced at the Savannah College of Art and Design that is pretty cool and creepy.
After you watch this one, you’ll never look at a No. 2 pencil in the same way again.
It’s got a weird Alice in Wonderland kind of vibe.
I wonder what would happen if you used Pencil Face […]

Japanese Bruce Willis

Posted 6/03/2008 9:31 am by Stephanie Sturgis

Every time I surf around the Internet, I invariably run across something that makes me scratch my head.

Often that scalp tickling comes courtesy of a Japanese television show featuring something like a velcro wall or a crazy obstacle courses.
That was the case when I ran across a clip of an Asian man doing his finest […]

Annoying Kids Get Their Payback

Posted 5/08/2008 1:29 pm by Stephanie Sturgis

What’s more annoying than a cutesy kid on a Hummel figurine?
How about annoying kids in real life.
They run around like maniacs while their parents are often oblivious to the distractions and mayhem their “little darlings” are causing whether it’s during a concert or ceremony, at restaurants and stores or just in the neighborhood.
Sometimes these brats […]

Bringing The Noise With Toys

Posted 5/07/2008 1:07 pm by Stephanie Sturgis

I’m still a kid at heart.
I love me some toys. Among the clutter on my desk is a hula dog bobble head, some Simpsons stuff and an old Pee Wee Herman “action figure.”
So imagine my delight when I ran across a woman who combines toys to create “music.”
Yep, Kitty Clark has some creative notions and […]

Kinder, Gentler Grand Theft Auto 4

Posted 5/05/2008 9:32 am by Stephanie Sturgis

Unlike classic video games which people search high and low on the Internet to find, certain video games get a bad rap.

You shoot a few people, including some cops, steal some cars, boats and planes or blow up some stuff and suddenly you’re the scourge of the gaming world.
The Grand Theft Auto game series has […]

Boomerangs in Space

Posted 5/01/2008 1:06 pm by Stephanie Sturgis

What’s that goofy saying from the 70s?

“If you love something, set it free. If it belongs to you, it will come back to you.”
Something like that.
So I’m guessing people who throw boomerangs really believe that.
These are also the folks who were curious about what happens to a boomerang when it’s thrown in zero gravity.

The Subway Survival Kit

Posted 4/25/2008 11:23 am by Ron Hogan

Any good motorist has some emergency supplies in their car.  Even most of us bad motorists carry around extra oil, radiator fluid, and a spare tire.  If you’re prepared, you’ll have a pry bar, maybe a flashlight or some flares, and even a spare blanket.  Even if you don’t have any of that stuff, you’ve […]

8 Sports Designed For Your Dog

Posted 4/25/2008 4:45 am by AJ Star

The Air Bud movies, despite how seemingly useless all of the sequels have been, have taught us one thing: dogs are super athletic. They love sports, they are good at sports, and we should let them play sports.
But first they will need a selection of athletic events to choose from. Thankfully, Mental Floss blog has […]

Darth Vader Beats Up His Neighbors

Posted 4/24/2008 11:01 am by Stephanie Sturgis

I’ve tried to wrap my mind around the fanboys and geeks who spend hours recreating meticulous costumes and performing scenes from their favorite movies.

I’ll admit I don’t get it.
But I certainly appreciate when these guys go so far over the top that the cops have to be called in.
That happened in the UK when […]

Interactive Holograms

Who wasn’t mesmerized the first time they saw R2D2 beam out a version of Princess Leia begging Obi Wan for help?
Come on. Admit it. That was pretty cool. Especially if you saw the movie on the big screen back in 1977.
The hologram has advanced pretty far since then and now LM3Labs has come up with […]

The Awful Truth About the World of Blogging

Posted 4/23/2008 5:29 am by AJ Star

Earlier this month, the New York Times published an article about the dangerous world of blogging after two men died–one from a heart attack and one from a massive coronary.
Writer Matt Richtel chalked it up to stress from the demands of blogging. I am not at liberty to say whether or not I agree with […]
