Epic Rap Battles of History pits historical figures (some real, some fictional) against each other in the classic hip hop battle format. The series started as a labor of love by a couple of musician-comedians, but it has since grown up and blown up so big, even Snoop Dogg wanted in on the action. Snoop here plays Moses battling Santa Claus. It is awesome. Moses Dogg: “Hand me my chisel, I got a new commandizzle for y’all. Thou shalt not let children sit on a grown man’s lap at the...

This incredibly, well, sincere, um singer, once demonstrated in a YouTube video his ability to, uh, sing? his way through “ten” octaves. We don’t mean to ridicule this man. We’re actually rather enamored of his calm self-assuredness as in reality he only sings through, oh, a whole tone or two, not ten octaves. Word apparently got around to him that people were less-than-impressed with his vocalic skilz, so he took the video down. Luckily there’s a with-goats version. Check it out for a few chuckles — or winces, depending on how it hits...

“Regular Ordinary Swedish Meal Time” is an instructional cooking series that can only be described as Gallagher meets the Demon Barber of Fleet Street meets the Swedish Chef meets Hannibal Lecter meets The Joy of Cooking meets Martha Stewart meets Bizarre Foods with Andrew Zimmern meets Klingon Rite of Ascension. This is the holiday episode from 2011, entitled “Carnivorous Christmas...

Much ink has been spilled on the subject of grammar Nazis, but where did those useless, annoying pedants come from, anyway? This classic “Hitler’s Downfall” re-subtitling meme definitively answers that question. Addressing his top brass, a positively disgusted Hitler struggles to find the perfect phrase to describe them: “You guys are like some kind of grammar authorities, or some kind of grammar… strict police… Dammit! What’s the word I’m looking for? I’m thinking of like an authoritarian regime or something, with the streets filled with like uniformed soldiers that arrest people for the slightest...

Bad Lip Reading is a video series that takes well known political figures, music videos, popular movies, and other footage of people in the public eye, and overdubs them with new words or lyrics. The effect is gut-bustingly hilarious randomness, if you’re into screwball humor. Our favorite here at Golden Twist is the Michele Bachmann video. Here Mrs. Bachmann sports her Jason-mask-like politi-smile and poetically describes everything but her political campaign. You can hear the exasperated faux director urging her to stay on-message, but it’s completely hopeless. “We’d been camping for two nights and six mornings in Oahu, downing Bacardi. And where I’m from, Mama gets a what-what, you know I...
