Everybody Loves People Falling

Wanna hear a big fish story? This guy from Colorado is in a fishing tourney in Alaska. First, does everyone know what a halibut is? If you're too lazy to click the link, it's a fish that averages abou 25 pounds. Impressive. This guy in Alaska caught a fucking 337 pound halibut. Now, if you clicked the link, you'd know that the record is 470 pounds, but still. This is cool, right? Whatever, here's the article.

Welcome. Hopefully I'll show you some pretty cool stuff tonight. If not, well, there's always tomorrow. Let's get started. But before we do, I have an important announcement: I beat Daniel Tosh! I'm gonna sound like a total dork, but I wanted to put a video on this blog before Tosh.0 had it, and I finally did it! Remember that video of the wedding DJ slapping that chick's boobs around? Watch the new Tosh.0, they're just now playing it. I beat him by a couple days, anyway.

Anyway, let's watch some videos. This first video is a lot like a classic. Because it's a montage of people falling. And who doesn't like to watch people fall?



This next video you probably won't understand a word of (unless you're fluent in Korean), but fear not: there are sutitles! It's an speaking lesson for Korean people learning English.



Here's a story that will make you lose a little bit of faith in the world. So this lady takes a cab ride to the airport. The total comes to $33. She doesn't tip. First, you should always tip cabbies and waiters/waitresses, and this lady should've tipped. And all the cabbie asked for was 10%. But here's where things head south. The cabbie locked her in his cab for half an hour, demanding that she pay the tip. The tip would only be three fucking bucks... There's no sanity in this world... You can read the full article here.

Well, that's it for now. Hope everyone enjoyed it. Here's something cute.

She's Got Me Spendin'...

Two days ago, ImprovEverywhere held their 9th Annual "No Pants Subway Ride." While they have yet to upload a video of that particular outing, please enjoy the past two years.

Some of the people aren't even surprised. My favorite reaction is the guy at 1:26.

Haha, there's like a bunch of little kids in that one, and those parents must be like "Well, we knew that when we moved to New York it was gonna be like this..."

One last thing. This is for anybody that thinks maybe there's no hope left for society. A cab driver in New York City drove 50 miles to return a purse someone had left in his cab. The owner was a woman named Felicia Lettieri. In the purse was travel money for Felicia and her six relatives, which ran to the tune of about $21,000. The cabbie found an address in the purse and drove to Long Island. Nobody was home. He left a note and his number. On top of all that, he refused a reward. Damn good man. I mean, sure, I would've returned the money, but I think I'd have wanted a reward of some kind... You can read that article here.

And thus, another episode of Ashes to Oranges comes to a close. Sorry you didn't get to see me eat a live shark. The pet store was all out.
