I hope everyone enjoyed that look into Sony’s latest product. As we slog through a week leading up to one of the most commercialized holidays of the year, I felt it appropriate to put things in Onion-y perspective. I’ve got a buttload of links to dump this week, which means that a winner is you! Here we go:

  • Here’s a picture of JFK and Bill Clinton shaking hands. Isn’t the internet neat?
  • Check out this very slick collection of something we don’t often think about very much: loading screens. It’s sort of hypnotizing.

Hit the jump for a look into the world of film piracy and the intersection where Daft Punk, the NES and Guitar Hero meet.

  • Some person made a Guitar Hero mod for their NES, and then played Daft Punk’s ‘Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger’ on it. That person is a genius.

To wrap things up, two funny videos. First up, it’s the Japanese version of the ‘24′ theme song. I really think this could catch on, especially since I now pronounce ‘Jack Bauer’ exactly like this dude:

 

And finally, a hilarious redub of one of those addictive infomercials. This one’s for Kaboom, which is ostensibly the best cleaning agent out there. It’s some of the most juvenile humor out there, but no one said this was a classy joint. NSFW.

 

See you next week, lovers.
