OK, I stopped at 1:06. Is there some point to this?

I don’t know where he got that recipe from, but when I stuff a turkey, I get my whole hand up in that shit. Two fingers ain’t gonna do it.

@Ernest Pikeman: I’m with you: I’ve wasted several seconds of my life that I can’t get back. John, WHY???

Dunno how many might have any interest in old-time radio, but came across a trove of archived radio shows done in the 60s and 70s about just that, here. Unusual in that many of them are interviews and reminiscences from people one doesn’t usually hear from (ad agency execs, musicians, studio engineers, etc.).
@Ernest Pikeman
You lasted longer than I.
Wasn’t hard to come away, certainly wasn’t about to stick around for the climax.

The question is John, how many of us would you have a beer with?

It’s pretty clear to me that conservative Christians need to obsess over controlling everyone else’s sex drives in order to avoid having to think about themselves, how they are living their lives, and how they treat others. They might actually need to try to be good people instead of automatically assume they are better than everyone else because they don’t do {insert disapproved sex act here}.

Also, I’m suspect that one guy doesn’t need to make the faces he’s making to do the sign language. Looks like he has first hand knowledge of what it’s like to masturbate, so maybe he should sit down and let someone else do the signing.
PhoenixRising
That ain’t even captioned. So they don’t want deaf people to stop jerking it, they want signing people to stop.
Cassidy
I don’t understand the renewed push to give up masturbation. Personally, I’m tired when I’m all done. I have no time for letting satan in at that point.

@Cassidy: it was worth giving up 2 minutes of my life just to read your comment. I will be laughing for days over that.

@Debg: Thank you, thank you.

The video suggests the post title is a lie

Don’t really see what you think is so funny about this but at least it’s not another fuking picture of your god damned cat!
Why not try talk about Ukraine and how Obama is such a weak tyrant like all the other morons around here who regularly jump at the chance to play along with right wing spin.

Weren’t these guys at Mandelas funeral?

@muricafukyea: Speaking of jerking off.

Fine. What do we have to do to get you to hate us that much?

Keep trying to stuff that genie back in the bottle. HD video from space off of commercial satellites. Not yet as high resolution as stills – you can’t identify individual vehicles yet, but if you can identify one on the ground and correlate it to the video, you could certainly track that vehicle wherever it goes.
Privacy will never be about whether or not some agent has data or not. They’ll have that data – they already have it. Privacy will depend entirely on policies governing the use of that data.

@NotMax: Can somebody explain why Edgar Bergen, a renowned ventriloquist, was one of the biggest stars of radio?
Smedley Darlington Prunebanks (formerly Mumphrey, et al.)
I never knew Sean Bean (1:30-1:50) was a Jehovah’s Witness, nor did I know that he’s deaf.

@Citizen_X:
Why would someone do that to pie?

@MikeJ
A friend of mine (now deceased) was the son of the man who put Bergen on radio, so I actually know a little about this.
His act was funny and Bergen’s delivery and timing was lightning quick (even if his lip-moving skills were less than up to par). Back and forth sniping was already a and established staple of radio variety programs.
Bergen & his McCarthy were first booked as a novelty act on the #1 program of the day (the novelty being broadcasting a ventriloquist on radio), and clicked. Audience response was overwhelmingly positive.
The biggest shows back then were put on through the auspices of ad agencies, who bought chunks of time and often filled those with a sponsored variety show hosted with what were the most popular stars they could muster.
The J. Walter Thompson agency got in contact with Bergen with a plan to team him for 13 weeks with W.C. Fields on one of their programs. The writers were very, very good, and that Fields/McCarthy feud drew huge audiences and made Bergen (who had been schlepping in vaudeville for over a decade prior) a household name and gave him enough cachet to warrant programming where he was a top billed performer.

When I lived on Capital Hill in DC Gallaudet University was just a few blocks away. They’d often take over a bar on Tuesday nights. Walking into the place and everybody signing. Well a stunning thing.

John, the old folks don’t get it. They’re so old they remember telling Run DMC to get off their lawns.

Oh in case you don’t know Gallaudet:

I owned a tavern where there was a deaf theater. The problem wasn’t talking/signing it was with a bunch of actors in a small town.
trollhattan
That video might be the strangest I’ve ever seen. Odd enough with the very earnest signers signing…whatever that is but the bible verses flashing on screen send it to a whole other realm. Praise Jesus and Carcosa.

I’m with DebG – well played!

Also as an interesting point, ASL has 2 different signs for masturbate. One for males, one for females. You can see the guys do both in the video.

I just have to share that my 72 year old mother loves 50 Cent. She knows all the words to this song.
Schlemizel
I’m old. That, well lets for the sake of this discussion call it ‘music’, could get me to turn off anything. I lasted less than 30 seconds, got the joke & clicked out.
HeartlandLiberal
Are you sure the Mormons are not involved with this? They have a real campaign against masturbation going on at Brigham Young right now, with videos, even.
McJulie
Moderately funny, but I still don’t get why we are “dared” to turn it off halfway through.
Nor do I get why some religions are putting out this big anti-masturbation push all of a sudden. The only thing that comes to mind is that anti-masturbation stuff is all aimed at men, so maybe it’s a misguided attempt at sexual egalitarianism?

@Tommy:
I live a half mile away from Gallaudet. Interesting community.

@Central Planning: I was actually responding to the turkey-stuffing comment, until I noticed how many times Cassidy *scored* last night.

I prefer this portion of the Jehovah’s Witness’ anti-masturbation video:
