Year In Recap: December

Its the last of the recaps from my posts of 2007. Just to let you know, I don't plan to recap my recaps - I'm not even going to link to them (you can get them from the side bar or search the recap tag, or click the recap tag). Anyway, I hope you've enjoyed reliving some of my posts/the awesome videos (that aren't mine) over the last few days. So, without further ado, here's the December recap.

In what was sort of a reminiscing post, I said I Wish I Would Have Tried This with respect to a couple of drunk crazy dudes jumping a Geo Tracker.

We saw a couple of dudes voluntarily taking shots to the nuts from a pitching machine while wearing One Nutty Buddy.

We saw an escalator attack a girl in a post entitled Some People Are Dumb. I guess I really could have gone a lot of directions in this post with a title like that.

I asked Why Is There Almost Always A Public Backlash? with respect to the potential Judd Apatow backlash. Ross gave an answer in the comments that might have been longer than the post itself.

On Christmas Eve, I tried to Make You Feel Good About Yourself by showing you the worst free throw form ever.

In the post Crazy Frustrating Video Games I showed you one of the craziest Mario mods ever.

And that's it. Most of my favorites from the past 12 months have now been recapped. I hope you learned something because I sure did - recaps are harder work than I thought. Until next year's recaps...

Year In Recap: November

We're down to the final two recaps. With my new posting method in full effect, November took off with 18 posts a lot of videos and not a lot of writing. I felt like I really hit my stride in November, and I saw my hits and subscriptions double, which is a good thing.

In November, I apparently had an obsession with bad commercials. In the post Tiddy Bear and Some Skeet Throwing had a couple outrageous ones. Who makes something with the word "tiddy" that sits on your chest?

There was an Emergency BCS Top 5 Change (maybe removal was the better word) because Elisha Cuthbert went a little crazy with her hair. I have since been told that this is illegal; however, I'm still removing her, just not replacing her. I also included some awesome/ludicrous dance videos in that post.

I gave you an awesome story about A Real Life Dwight vs. Michael at my gym in one post, but my favorite thing in that post may have been the Cowbell Hero video.

Whether or not you like Mike Huckabee, I told you a video he was in About to be All Over the Internets because it featured Chuck Norris and was entitled HuckChuckFacts.

Anytime Will Ferrell makes a short video that makes me laugh, I'll write about it/post it. Green Team did that.

When a referee penalizes a football player for "Giving Him The Business" and its caught on tape, you can be pretty sure it'll get posted here.

I showed you some of the craziest/weirdest Japanese Fanta commercials and reminded you that I Love Japanese Stereotypes in one crazy post. This post was like the 6th time in the month of November that I used commercials...

There was more Japanese shananigans to be had in November. In the post I'm A Man... Engrish and poor translations but somehow tied that all together with a video about chicks peeing while standing up. I'm not sure why, but the Urinelle commercial (another commercial!) theme song popped in my head the other day.

I told you to Prepare to be Seduced by Snoop Dogg's new song, Sensual Seduction. This song is catchy - if you like funk, you will eventually like this song.

Until the final recap...

Year In Recap: October

I hope two recaps a day isn't too much for you to read. Turns out you can just skip past them I guess...but that's no fun for me. Anyway, the October recap is up next.

I hit my 200th post in a post called Post #200: Its Been a Long Journey. Big thanks to my boy Wheezy for the new graphics again. I also changed my posting style to more videos, less talking at this point. I think its working really well despite the fact that I'm breaking that rule for these recaps.

Shipoopi was an awesome post that featured a couple ridiculous car insurance commercials. You know its good when I still get drunk texts that say "Shipoopi. Take that to the bank."

You may remember a song called Crank Dat (Superman Dat Ho). It wasn't overplayed or anything. Anyway, I took a look at the ridiculous Superman dance that swept the nation in the post called Superman, Crank Dat and the Houdini.

I don't mean to pick on R. Kelly, but he seems to come up a lot here (I'm not sure that that's a good thing). I took a look at another R. Kelly song/video/conversation in R. Kelly Breaks the 4th Wall.

I gave you another glimpse at It's Always Sunny In Philidelphia (no that's not a mistake, only the actual title is linked) with the Night Man song. If I'm ever down, I sing that song to myself. Sadly those videos aren't there anymore, but they were good damnit.

We looked at an awesome Internet education video and probably the best crowd shot of all-time in the a post entitled Let e Tell You Why My Life's a Trainwreck. Honestly, go back and watch that crowd shot and tell me if you don't laugh.

Until the November recap...

Year In Recap: Septiembre

Su hora para la recapitulación de septiembre. Había solamente 10 postes en septiembre así que será corta. Consecuentemente, estoy mecanografiando todo en español primero.

It's time for the September recap. There were only 10 posts in September, so it should be pretty quick.

Los videos más ridículos del mes estaban en un poste titulado ataque de los flotadores del desfile. Demuestra encajonado algunos de los años 80 peores que desfilan los X-Hombres los flotadores he visto siempre.

The most ridiculous videos of the month were in a post entitled Attack of the Parade Floats. It showcased some of the worst 1980's X-Men parade floats I have ever seen.

Probablemente di a Carlton Alfonso la prensa más positiva que lo reciben en un rato largo con un poste titulado ¿Adónde Carlton Alfonso Fue? Ese muchacho podría bailar.

I probably gave Carlton Alfonso the most positive press he's received in a long time with a post entitled Where Did Carlton Alfonso Go? That boy could dance.

En mi agolpamiento siempre cada vez mayor del hombre en Rainn Wilson (él apareció adentro como del 3 los postes de septiembre) le demostré un manojo de fútbol de Rainn/US (que no resultó como esperamos, el huh?) los anuncios en un poste llamaron a
Britney Dwight en un sujetador. Al parecer realmente amé utilizar la característica de la huelga también.

In my ever growing man crush on Rainn Wilson (he appeared in like 3 September posts) I showed you a bunch of Rainn/US Soccer (that didn't turn out like we expected, huh?) commercials in a post called Britney Dwight in a Bra. I apparently really loved to use the strike feature as well.

En el poste Qué Hizo este Verano? Recapitulé las películas del verano y le di algún hombre araña ridículo los videos. Éste no era probablemente uno de mis postes mejores, pero pensé que ató todo junto agradable.

In the post What Did I Do This Summer? I recapped the summer movies and gave you some ridiculous Spiderman videos. This was probably not one of my better posts, but I thought it tied everything together nicely.

Year In Recap: August

I got the blog back rolling again in August, cresting the double-digit marks on posts again. So, here comes the August recap.

I gave you a look at QVC: The Overlooked Channel and some of the crazy things that appear on it.

I complained about that Sean Kingston song "Suicidal" in the post No, You Make Me Suicidal. It also had the video of that crazy dude falling at the X Games and the picture above.

I let Avril back into my life in the post Avril, I Wish I Could Quit You. Nothing more to say here.

We took a long look at my boy I Am A Real (US) American. Our boy, Hulk has gone through some rough times lately - I can only hope he'll read this post and cheer up.

I ended my Summer Vacation when The Office said they ended theirs. We also had an awesome look into It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, a show I now love.

Year In Recap: July

I've finally reached the back half of the recaps. Turns out this is a lot more work than you'd imagine...and all I'm doing is looking at my old posts. Anyway, onto the July posts.

Even though I moved, the blog rolled on in New Job, New Digs, Same Blog. You also got a bad-ass Die Hard 4 music video (see more summer movie references).

R. Kelly gave us the behind the scenes look at Trapped in the Closet (and how some of his rhymes don't work) in Dresser Doesn't Rhyme With Baretta.

We looked at some really bad rap in Will I Get Sick If I Eat A Cholo. Really bad.

I gave you a story of how I ended up at a gay bar and asked Does TMNT Talk Work At A Gay Bar.

July was a short month. Until the August recap.

Year In Recap: June

In the sixth installment of my recap, I'm going to cover June. This shouldn't be a surprise to you a June is the sixth month.

Remember in the May recap when I talked about the summer movie run (of course you do, it was yesterday)? Well, in the post Who's Knocked Up? we saw Michael Cera and capitalized on the upcoming movie Knocked Up (which was quite funny).

Remember that damn Buy You A Draaaaaaank song from this summer? In this post I made fun of it and found a video that did as well.

Remember this picture on the right? Its from the post Phil Is Phat Fat and a Small Recap. There's also an awesome San Antonio Spurs rap.

Remember when I was mad at Avril to the point that I wrote a post about Crossing Avril Out Of My Life? That didn't last long. I still love Sk8r Boi and Complicated is just all the more true.

Remember when I was Peacing Out at National Instruments? My last post in June was bittersweet as it signaled my last day of my first real jobby-job. And look what I'm missing out on.

Until the July recap.

Year In Recap: May

The frequency of these things is going to have to increase if I hope to get them done by the new year. Next on the list is May. On a side note, May started one of the best summer movie runs all-time. There are 10+ movies I enjoyed this summer. Anyway, here's the recap.

Capitalizing on the summer movie bash, I took a look at the crazy Japanese Spiderman in Spiderman or Supaidaaman. I'm pretty sure that some sort of Japanese mini-obsession started here.

We saw how Nickelodeon Slipped One Past Us by using the phrase "Skeet Face." I still laugh at that video.

I asked What the Hell Happened to Luke Wilson in the middle of May. The movie I referenced in that post, Blonde Ambition, rolled out this week and made a whopping $1300 in its opening weekend. I'm pretty sure know I could make a movie that does better than that.

In what has been probably my most popular post all time (not involving chicas), I broke down how to Ghost Ride Your Whip.

In a random post, I gave you an awesome white guy giving us an NBA freestyle and a Backstreet Boys stalker in Who Doesn't Want It That Way?.

In response to my BCS Top 5 Chicas, Shorty gave us her BCS Top 5 Dudes.

Near the end of May, for Memorial Day, we took a look at some National Anthem Disasters. My boy Todd is going to sing the National Anthem in January at a hockey game. I hope it goes better than these.

Year In Recap: April

Its Christmas and as a second gift to you, here is the April recap.

In one of my best recap videos ever, Week In Recap: It's A Shark Attack gave you an awesome shark attack video.

I relieved one of the scariest/funniest moments of my life in a post entitled Aruba Jamaica Ooh I Wanna Make Ya. It seems so long ago that I was teaching for NI...

The Association Starts Tomorrow was one of my favorite posts to write ever (I spent about 5 hours researching it) mainly because there are so many crappy NBA commercials. I never wrote the second part of that post. Maybe someday...

Another good recap post was entitled Shannon Elizabeth in which I showed a video of her deep throating a banana. My boy JP loved that one. That post also kicked off Testosterone Week on the Skeet Thrower, a concept that still gets me about 200 hits a day.

Testosterone Week culminated in me revealing my BCS Top 5 Chicas, easily my most popular post ever. I was informed by my wife that I was not allowed to remove Elisha Cuthbert from my list even though I would consider her cutting her hair a major event. At least I can change it up at the new year....

Year In Recap: Best of March

Round three of the year in recap, and that means its time to take a look at the best of the 14 posts from the month of March.

I asked What the Hell Happened to Avril Lavigne (Part 2) and showed you her new video "Girlfriend." I also gave you an awesome Asian lip-syncing video. My favorite part of that post may have been a picture from the video that I used in another post and here on the left. I have no clue who that guy is, but I have probably single-handedly increased his internets exposure by 300%.

I revealed my BCS: Man Crush List publicly for the first time in March. Its amazing how this has changed since then.

I gave you an in-depth look at ninjas and the show Ninja Warrior in early March.

When NCAA tournament time rolled around, I told you that It's Not Like I Get Anything Done Anyway because all I do is watch the tourney. I also gave you some advice by way of ridiculous videos with who not to pick in your pools.

With Shandi Finnessey making an appearance on Dancing With The Stars, I renewed my campaign to get Chuck Woolery to take over the PIR in a post entitled Woolery, Shandi and DWTS. I still think Woolery would be a better host than Drew Carey.

I unveiled my BCS: Bottom Five near the end of March. I still strongly dislike/hate most of those people, although I can already guarantee you that list will change when I make it again next March (although Sandra Oh will probably still be number 1...man, I hate her).

Until the April recap...

Year In Recap: Best of February

In keeping with my (new) tradition, I'm recaping the best of each month over the last year here on the Skeet Thrower. I started with January (as you can imagine), so now I'm moving onto February.

I found an awesome clip for the post: Name This Country: ASIA! Nothing like making fun of stereotypes...I never do that.

I hit my 100th post in February and gave you a post ingeniously titled Its The 100th Post Extravaganza. I think Wheezy is coming up on his 100th post himself, so keep a look out for that one.

Throughout my time here at the Skeet Thrower I love to bring up some of the favorite things from my childhood. In the post Master of Turtles and a Ninja Rap I found out that some of my friends consider me a master of the Turtles. I also gave you a throwback video from Vanilla Ice.

I gave you some awesome Rainn Wilson videos (and a topical reference at the time) in the post I'm About To Make It Rainn!

I know this isn't on this blog, but someone also wrote a post about me in February. I'm now on top of her all the time - and by that I mean I'm her boss (wait...someone put me in charge of someone else? More on that some other time). What were you thinking.

Until the March recap...

Year In Recap: Best Of January

I'm stealing an idea from one of my favorite websites, Deadspin, and leading up to the new year I'm going to be recapping some of my favorite posts on a month-by-month basis (if I was better my weekly recaps this would be even easier). Anyway, since January comes first, here's the January Recap:

The first post of the year was a video shown to me by my little bro and one that a bunch of people probably missed. Its a video from some guy named Zlad who severely butchers the English in his song. The post was called Hey Baby Wake Up From Your Asleep and that's an actual line he uses in the video. If you watch one video in this recap, make it this one.

The NFL playoffs are almost here and my adopted team for last year's playoffs were the San Diego Super Chargers and in this post I found gave you their theme song. I forgot all about this song and I'm not going to put it on my Ipod and blare it out over my speakers at work.

I sang the Tom Brady ballad from the post entitled Uuuhhhggg-rrr! Means Tom Brady as I've had him on 2 of my fantasy teams (even though he cost me this week). There was also an awesome American Idol video where a chick sings like a lion that is no longer available there...but it is available here (and you should really watch it again).

The Office: Pam Vs. Karen sparked a nearly year-long debate (and one of the funniest episodes of The Office) and also had my favorite picture of the month and probably of the year. As a result, I've placed it on the right so you don't even have to click on the link (if you do; however, you'll get to see an awesome Diddy video).

The last post of January was probably my favorite and I used something called JumpCut to cut and add the video to the Internets myself (which lead to some random chick putting a <3 in my comments and I had no clue what that meant until then - its a heart) - its a dubbed over battle from the Power Rangers which made me laugh a lot entitled They Call Me A Mastadon Cuz I Got The Trunk In The Front.

Until the February recap...

Week In Recap: It's Saturday

It's Saturday, and you may be asking yourself why is there a new post on Saturday? The answer? I can't stop posting...just kidding. Really, if you're asking that question, I guess you should be asking yourself why you're reading this.

In any case, with the new posting style, I feel the recap makes much more sense on Saturday. Of course, it may not get posted on Saturday, but hopefully the recap will make it way more often than it has over the last few months.

Anyway, while you're reading this I'm either driving to Columbia, MO, hanging out in Columbia, watching a Nebraska/Missouri football game or, if you make it to Sunday, driving home from the game, on Sunday. Hopefully everything turns out well. We all remember what Mizzouri's Chase Daniel did last year - we can only hope for that or worse today. If nothing else, I hope this video of Erin Andrews, getting upset because the third take of some random tailgating piece didn't go as planned, gets you in the football mood.



If football doesn't do it for you (wha?), here's a video of Bobby Abreu's baseball bat breaking for no apparent reason last night. Watch the bat after he taps it on the plate. That was the second best part of that game, right behind the Yankees losing.



On To The Recap:

On Monday, I made it to Post #200. Unveiling the new posting style. Hope you've enjoyed it thus far.

We looked at the marketing power of Billy Dee Williams on Tuesday.

Eric Olsen showed us how bad of an actor he really is on Wednesday.

Vern Fonk Insurance videos were all over Friday's post.

Week In Recap: King Size Me

Its the return of the week in recap! Actually, I just decided its not worth writing a recap whenever I only post a couple times a week. Anyway, on Friday, my wife and I had a king size bed delivered. Now, some of you that know my wife and I may be asking "Why in the hell do you two need a king size bed?" Well, it turns out that my wife is bed-hog and she tries to sleep on our entire queen. As a result, we decided to upgrade to a bigger bed. Of course, my dog will still try to sleep right next to me, no matter how much room there is on the bed.

Even though we got the bed on Friday, we haven't had a chance to sleep on it yet - we've been in Omaha all weekend (and we didn't have any sheets that fit it anyway). We're going back tonight, so it will be awesome to finally get our first night's rest on the king bed. But, enough about me...

On to the Recap...

On Monday, I told you about my weekend in Kansas City, including my trip to a gay bar.

I gave you a glimpse at QVC, a channel I've started watching again, on Wednesday.

Friday was a quick post (pictures!) - in which I complained about JoJo's response to Sean Kingston's "Beautiful Girls". I also included a clip from a terrible X-Games accident where a guy walked away. I watched a little bit more this weekend and saw this, called the "Kiss of Death Backflip." Pretty Bad Ass.



Have a good week.

Week in Recap: ESPY's

Tonight I am over at my old house watching Entourage. We just finished up watching the ESPY's. The parts I saw were actually pretty good (except that everyone kept mispronouncing the names). This was probably the best thing that ESPN has generated in a while - and way, way, way better than the BS "Who's Now" crap. That stuff is so bad that even NewsWeek took a shot at the World Wide Leader. I won't elaborate on the issue too much because I think that article covers it pretty well, but I will say this - I used to love ESPN, now I watch as little as possible.

Anyway, here is one of my favorite moments of the ESPY's, Jamie Foxx singing to Serena Williams (which is funny regardless of whether you think she is hot or a man-beast).



On to the Recap...

On Wednesday, I returned from my unplanned vacation during my move with an awesome Die Hard music video.

Friday, we took a look at R. Kelly's DVD special on Trapped in the Closet. Also, sorry about the F-bomb, I was just really pissed about the lack of tacos/kolatches.

Have a good week.

Phil is Phat Fat and a Small Recap

No recap this week. I guess I'm still not over my MLTP hangover. Also, I got busy celebrating Father's Day with my pops, taking care of my sick dog, watching the US Open and videos of Bob Ross (more on him later this week).

Speaking of the US Open, to the right is a picture of Phil Mickelson who took it up the poop shoot this weekend. I'm not sure what Lefty and that other guy are doing in this picture (and I'm pretty sure it was taken before sometime before this weekend), but I'm pretty sure that the guy snapping that photo laughed really, really hard - he probably pissed himself.

Fortunately, Phil doesn't care about golf because he has a wife that is, as my roommate used to put it, "f-ing hot, MMMMMM" (on a side note, if you compare that link with the picture on the right, you'll notice that Phil has gone so Raven on us - he's gonna catch up to my boy John Daly pretty quickly if he doesn't start mixing in a few salads...no dressing. Also, my roommate used to call me M-M-M-M-M-M, he was not saying "mmmmm"). I should let you know that I don't really watch golf as it generally puts me to sleep. That said, I play in a fantasy golf league and I love a good game of Wii Golf. But I digress, I watched enough of the US Open this weekend to see an Argentinian golfer, Angel (that's an-hel) Cabrera, beat off out Tiger to win it all.

It has been a good week for Argentinian athletes as Manu Ginobili and Fabricio Oberto picked up NBA championships and this Angel guy won a golf major. Pretty impressive. Maybe Angel can get this guy to make him a celebratory video.



Where are all the Spurs fans, indeed. I want to see this Punk (that's the guy's name, and that video gets funnier the longer you make it) guy in a freestyle battle with that NBA rap guy and the guy who wrote the 3rd verse of Buy You a Draaaaaank. That would be awesome.

On to the recap:

I didn't write until Thursday, but when I did, I gave you three videos.

On a Casual Dress Friday, we took a look at McDonald's Filet-O-Fish commercial.

Have a good week.

Week In Recap: Suburban Commando

There's been a theme this week: short posts. Turns out I've got this big ass project at work that is draining a lot of my free time. The good news is it finishes on Wednesday, so once that happens I'll be free again. Besides, nothing really happened this week beyond Paris going to jail, and you got two posts on Friday, so you can't really complain.

Onto the recap...

On Monday, I told you how much I hated the lyrics of T-Pain's song "Buy You a Drank" or "Buy you a Draaaaank. Honestly, the third verse of that song is completely based on stealing lines from other songs...


I proposed that Hulk Hogan caused the rise and fall of WWE on Wednesday. Also, it was brought to my attention that I forgot one of Hulk's most ridiculous movies: Suburban Commando.



I gave you two posts on Friday: One with the O Rly Owls and one looking ahead at the show Cavemen.

Have a good week.

Week In Recap: Wheezy's Birfday Birthday

I'm OK with the Facebook.com. I don't really check it that often, but there is one thing that I pretty much couldn't live without: the birthday reminders. I'm usually pretty good about remembering birthdays but every once in a while I would miss one. Now that doesn't happen.

One birthday I wouldn't miss? My boy Wheezy's birthday. Hope you have a good one, brother. To celebrate, here's a ridiculous birthday song for you.



On to the recap...

On Monday, we celebrated Memorial Day by taking a look at National Anthem Disasters.

Wednesday we looked at a different disaster, the Miss Universe 2007 competition.

The first post of June was Friday and we took a look at some funny-ass videos from Michael Cera. The second video in that post is a spoof of a ridiculous video that someone attached to their resume. If you haven't seen it before (or in the last week or so), I recommend that you watch it.



Have a good week.

Week In Recap: Under the Radar

Apparently in the mess of TV that ended last week, Dancing with the Stars ended. I have no clue since I haven't followed DWTS since Shandi was voted off. Anyway, apparently Apollo Anton Ohno (there is nothing funny in that video except for his shirt that says "The Real Thing") won the thing. This is not important. What is important? His partner, Julianne Hough, is smoking hot. I have heard no leass than 4 girls say that they would "eat her box." That is impressive my friends.

Wanna see her? Of course you do.



My goodness - I forgot that Salt N' Peper sang Push It. That stripper pole grind dance by Julianne was pretty impressive. You know what else is impressive? The amount of clothing (or lack thereof) that she is wearing in this clip.

Julianne is flying under the radar because not a lot of dudes watched DWTS. I hope she doesn't just walk away from this show and disappear into thin air...

On to the recap:

On Monday, 24 ended and I discussed my plans to pick up Sopranos (spoiler alert).

I discussed the glory of 80's music on Wednesday.

Friday's post was written just so I could show you a clip where someone says "Double Penetration"

Also, as a follow up to last week", formatting has been rolled back. There will now be three link types: Normal, Must See and Internal. I may include a craptastic link style every now and then, but only for the most ridiculous links. To be fair, that last link wasn't craptasitc, but Curt Schilling called his outing craptastic and I thought that was funny.

Have a good week.

Week In Recap: Ross' Return

It was a good weekend for me. My Spurs won twice this weekend, beating the Suns on Friday and the Jazz on Sunday, and my friend Ross returned from his three week excursion to Panama on Saturday (I'm just impressed he took the time to visit the Skeet Thrower while in Panama). Plus I got some sno-cones.

At this time, you may be wondering why some of the links in that last paragraph are different. Well, I should inform you that (thanks to a genious suggestion from Wheezy) I'm going to try a new link format here on the Skeet Thrower.

As I've said before, I put some of my best stuff in the links but since I throw a lot of links at you, I'm going to try and help you decipher what you're getting before you click on them.

So, here is a list of link styles for your reference:

• Must View Link - Italics: Moo & Oink


• Internal (pointing to a past post) - Small Caps: BCS Top 5


• You've prolly seen it, but its worth checking out again - Black: Derka Derka


• I also link things that might be kinda funny, but not really - they will be Red: Nicholas Cage Underwear Commercial


• Normal links will also be around, like so: DDR Challenge

So, hopefully those will help you out (of course, I may get lazy and not use those tags...we'll see). In other news, there are two new blogs you should check out: The first is a genious Hot or Not discussion at Da Skinny and the second is...well, I haven't quite figured it out yet but the blog's title is In a Crowded Room, Pants Down and Music Up. They, of course, will be added to the links on the side.

Isn't this just supposed to be a recap post? On to the recap...

On Monday we went Ghost Riding. You have no idea how many times I heard "Ghost Ride Your Whip" this week - it just fits into everyday situations. So, in honor of the popularity of Ghost Ridin', here's another video.



I posted some interesting pictures and a couple of funny videos on Wednesday.

Friday was Shorty's day as she revealed her BCS Top 5 Cod Pieces Dudes.

Have a good week.
