Looking for the Holy Grail of Humor! What is the funniest thing you've found on the internet lately?

Now mind you... it needs to stay within the parameters of Mahalo decency.
It can be a typed description of something you found.
(it can be something funny that happened to you while you were on the computer)
It can be a video.
It can be a picture... whatever, just give me the back story on how you came across it, and why it's the funniest thing you've found lately.

There's a handful of these "literal videos" lurking around; just look up the term on YouTube. They're all worth watching and should give you a good chuckle.

Very good! Though when browsing YouTube for others, make sure to glance at the star rating. There are a few that aren't worth your time. (and many that are)

The site "Texts from Last Night" gives me hours of amusement. Sometimes I laugh so hard when reading it that co-workers look at me like I am nuts. And new stuff gets added all the time, so it never gets boring! FYI, this site may not be suitable for a younger audience.

I found it via a girlfriend who says she spends much of her day on it as it makes her feel better about her sordid evenings.

This is the funniest video ever because Aires Spears's impersonations of LL Cool J, Snoop Dogg, DMX, and Jay-Z are amazingly accurate! He could honestly record albums as them, and many people would be fooled.

This video is a short, sweet 1:41 seconds segment from a very talented guy.
Even better is the goofy guy in the back enjoying it haha.

That is a true classic! I did recently watch on Tosh 2.0, a new show on Comedy Central where he was a guest star and he redeemed himself by doing that stunt with out a flaw. If you love it so much (as I do) you'll love seeing that clip about him! Thanks Tim!

This cartoon was the funniest I found on the web recently - it's a brilliant take on the Iran situation, viz the Tiananmen Square episode in China, and very cleverly incorporating the 'Twitter' effect now pushing thru the country's techno-ban placed by the government.

Here's a recent one that I like. They used news clips, music, and autotuning to make an impressive original video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3eooXNd0heM

One more. This one is a little more off beat, but pretty funny none the less. It's basically a staged interview of an artist promoting a new album.

We've all seen Lolcats, but have you been introduced to Rolcats, "English translations of Russian lolcats?"

Another one that always gets me is Catprin - the tailor for cats. The poorly translated descriptions are almost as amusing as the photos of dressed up cats.
