Two years on YouTube

That's right, I signed up for my YouTube account two years ago. Since then I've watched 6,787 videos of which 509 are in my favourites (although the number should be bigger because a lot of them were deleted in the course of years — and it's now even reduced to 506 actually!), I have 223 subscribers and 11,444 people have visited my channel. That is mainly because I uploaded 69 videos which were seen by 3,078,989 people (at 10 am).

Here are my top eleven videos:

American business plan

Little Britain USA

As you may already know I like Little Britain, a Britcom making fun of all social groups in Britain through characters played by Matt Lucas and David Walliams. A spin-off of the series, set this time in the USA, has been made: Little Britain USA. Check out the US trailer:



And the British trailer, featuring Tom Baker's voice:



As we can see, some of our best loved characters return, like Vicky "the Chav" Pollard:



Daffyd Thomas (aka "the only gay in the village"):



Andy and Lou!

"Nah, I bet people piss in it!"

New characters are also introduced, such as Mark and Tom, the gym buddies…



Bing Gordon, a self-important astronaut who "walked on the Moon":



Another absurdist character, Phyllis and Mr. Doggy:

An afternoon at the museum

"Apart from mocking the elderly, there's no finer way to spend an afternoon than in an art gallery…"

"Yeah I know! Stop repeating everything I say!"

"I need to go to the toilet!" (Andy Pipkin, Little Britain)

Going to the toilet isn't a nightmare anymore for women who are afraid of germs on the seat:



It was unavoidable that I show you, after the world's cleanest toilet, the world's most disgusting "toilet":



"Ants, beetles, mosquitos, fleas, spiders… Oh! Several congrate! (…) A toad! (…) And we've got toilet paper!" / "That's a shit box!"

Yet, there's hope: the Viper, the state of the art in the domain of flushing huge piles of [INSERT WORD HERE]:



For those of you who think they waste a lot of clean water when flushing, the following video will prove that you're wrong: it is possible to waste more. Check this out

A comment on YouTube:

"That's not a toilet that's a washing machine" --> So true!



Today's Uncyclopedia featured article: the toilet (and the Pee Review, as a bonus)

This blog entry's title refers to the following sketch from Little Britain:



There's another one involving the bathroom:

People often have silly ideas…

… such as equipping a wheelchair with a propane-propelled engine:



Or a Honda four-stroke 165cc engine:



I'd like to get one of these for my grandma, when we go to the seaside… Probably everyone out there would be scared to death… Or I could use it to go to the faculty, but I admit it would be upsetting if it rains…


A little bonus skit from Little Britain:

"What is it?"
"It's the new chair you wanted!"
"Yeah I know."
"I had to go all the way down to Cranmouth for it; it's a right kerfuffle."

Extra fun

Ricky Gervais and his fellow comedians from Extras made a Christmas special episode. Guest stars include: Clive Owen, David Tennant, Lionel Blair, Lisa Scott-Lee, Hale and Pace, Gordon Ramsay, George Michael and Barry from EastEnders. (Source: Wikipedia.)



Apparently, this episode was designed to be the conclusion of the series, just like what they did with The Office.

Talking about George Michael, he also made an appearance in an extra Little Britain episode to raise money for Comic Relief:

Pics' art

Today, let me show you a series of silly photographs I found on the Internet. Let's start — for a change — with those I found on Uncyclopedia:

Close Encounters of the Third Reich:


Who can deny that Man is descended from apes?


Strange coincidence, isn't it?

This is a clever boy!


See, I told you he was evil!

This would have ruined his authority, back then:


Some of you are familiar with these signs, seen in the periphery of Brussels:

(Source: Brio.)

"How did you get up there?"
"I fell!"


This one is probably a fake one, though:


Brilliant:

"Are you having a laugh?"

This is evidence that birds cannot read (or, at least, interpret symbols):


And dogs as well.

eBay

I'm currently preparing a blog entry with parody stuff about Yoda (one of my favourite Star Wars characters) and since one of those spoofs was made by Weird Al Yankovic, I thought I could feature another song of him. This one describes quite cleverly eBay, the best-know website for selling things you don't need anymore. (That's better than a bonfire, as they do in Little Britain.)



Lyrics:

A used ... pink bathrobe
A rare ... mint snowglobe
A Smurf ... TV tray
I bought on eBay

My house ... is filled with this crap
Shows up in bubble wrap
Most every day
What I bought on eBay

Tell me why (I need another pet rock)
Tell me why (I got that Alf alarm clock)
Tell me why (I bid on Shatner's old toupée)
They had it on eBay

I'll buy ... your Nik Naks
Just check ... my feedback
"A++!" they all say
They love me on eBay

Gonna buy (a slightly-damaged golf bag)
Gonna buy (some Beanie Babies, new with tag)
(From some guy) I've never met in Norway
Found him on eBay

I am the type who is liable to snipe you
With two seconds left to go, whoa
Got Paypal or Visa, what ever'll please ya
As long as I've got the dough

I'll buy ... your tchotchkes
Sell me ... your watch, please
I'll buy (I'll buy, I'll buy, I'll buy ...)
I'm highest bidder now

(Junk keeps arriving in the mail)
(From that worldwide garage sale) (Dukes Of Hazard ashtray)
(Hey! A Dukes Of Hazard ashtray)
Oh yeah ... (I bought it on eBay)

Wanna buy (a PacMan Fever lunchbox)
Wanna buy (a case of vintage tube socks)
Wanna buy (a Kleenex used by Dr. Dre, Dr. Dre)
(Found it on eBay)

Wanna buy (that Farrah Fawcet poster)
(Pez dispensers and a toaster)
(Don't know why ... the kind of stuff you'd throw away)
(I'll buy on eBay)

What I bought on eBay-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y-y

This parody song was a spoof on I want it that way, by the Backstreet Boys. (I admit I didn't know that. I hardly know anything about popular music, actually. Poor me!) Here's the video if you want to compare:

Blind Date…

… with our Happy Tree Friends, of course!



And even Andy from Little Britain has got a blind date as well:

Christmas Week: "Little Britain"

I know that the Little Britain series had a special two-parts episode made for Christmas, called Little Britain Abroad, with characters traveling to exotic places, such as the Belgian Ardennes (a couple spending their honeymoon in a caravan) or Spain or Disneyworld (Lou and Andy were to go there, but their plane crashed on a desert island…). Unfortunately, the censors of YouTube apparently didn't like the fact that people shared funny stuff, and the episode is now only available through several fragments. The good news is that my account hasn't been suspended (yet!) and I have a scene that has something to do with Christmas. Enjoy!



I look a pillock!

Chessington

Why haven't shown you yet the most-seen of my videos on YouTube? Probably because I never thought of it. So there it is: it's a skecth from the second series of Little Britain, with David Walliams (here as Lou) and Matt Lucas (here as Andy).

In Herby, Andy Pipkin is enjoying is annual bath…

I thought you hated France! I thought you said the French could never been forgiven for surrendering to the German war machine, and collaborating with the occupier by setting up the Vichy Government...

If you have enjoyed this evening's programme, you might like to travel back in time half an hour and watch it again.

--> Brilliant quote! I wish I could do that sometimes!

Andy wanted to go to Chessington World of Adventure (if you didn't understand what Lou mumbles…).

And, believe it or not, the crew actually went to Paris to shoot that scene!!
