FRIV - Part the second

Yay!! It's Friday's Random Interweb Video time.

Hoorah! Hooray!

OK, enough of the shouting - it hurts my hungover head.

WHY CAN'T I DRINK TO EXCESS WITH NO CONSEQUENCES ANY MORE!!?? IT'S JUST NOT FAIR!!

Anyhoo, I will cease trying to illicit completely unjustified pity and present the following morsels for your Friday asses.

And now some completely random Japanese shenanigans. The folks at Dooce enjoyed this so much, they replicated it. Please note - I don't condone such behaviour...but it is kind of amusing in a cruel way. At least the puppy wins in the end.

As a cyclist, the contempt with which I am treated by those in cars and pedestrians is really quite confronting. A short ride is enough

Brokeback Goblet

I'm aware that this isn't particularly ground-breaking, this video has been doing the rounds, but I want to post it here so I can remember it later. If you haven't seen it, it's another one of those 're-cut' movie trailers , this time featuring Harry Potter and the Brokeback music - remarkably effective. And as Virginia says, "the power of a soundtrack". Listen to it through headphones, or on something with good sound and it will make you teary. Very clever.
