This is just funny.  It&#8217;s a video from the Jance Hall Show where he and Felicia Day face off in a Lightsaber fight.  Watch the video below.

I&#8217;m impressed with the quality of the choreography for the Lightsaber fight, well done!

Oh My Goodness, what can I say it&#8217;s bohemian Rhapsody as you have never seen  it before.  Watch the video above.

Muppets!
G rated lyrics
Imagine Animal and Beaker Singing.
I think most if not all of the Muppets make a cameo
A great geek joke at the end.

All I could do is just laugh and enjoy the trip. [...]]]></description>

I am not sure why I love this video so much, but watching Kelly, Ryan and the other from The Office go after each other in this pop song is just funny.

Star Wars fans a must see video of  Darth Vader dancing to MC Hammer You Can&#8217;t Touch This.  He not only dances to it but does a really good job at it too.

What can I say&#8230; I&#8217;m a sucker for dancing storm troopers.

<p>This clip of Darth Jackson on Britain&#8217;s Got Talent is hilarious.  The mashup of Michael Jackson and Darth Vader is great.  I laughed so hard, though I have a weakness for dancing Storm Troopers.  The only thing I think he should have done differently is when they asked him to take off his helmet he should have had a Michael Jackson mask on underneath.  If he had done that I think he would have won&#8230; he still had my vote but what can I say Dancing Stormtroopers!!!</p>

<p>I love the growing robot technology and how it can better everyone&#8217;s lives.  The idea that one day I  could crawl into a Mech suit to &#8220;run around in&#8221; excites me and is one of the things I&#8217;m looking forward to in the new G.I. Joe movie.  This suit is of no exception it uses sensors attached to the skin of the wearer to operate.</p>
<blockquote><p>“HAL catches these signals through a sensor attached on the skin of the wearer. Based on the signals obtained, the power unit is controlled to move the joint unitedly with the wearer’s muscle movement, enabling to support the wearer’s daily activities. This is what we call a ‘voluntary control system’ that provides movement interpreting the wearer’s intention from the biosignals in advance of the actual movement. Not only a ‘voluntary control system’ “HAL” has, but also a ‘robotic autonomous control system’ that provides human-like movement based on a robotic system which integrally work together with the ‘autonomous control system’. “HAL” is the world’s first cyborg-type robot controlled by this unique Hybrid System.”</p></blockquote>
<p>The humor of the company working on this is at no loss to me either:</p>
<ul>
<li>Naming themselves Cyberdyne after the Terminator films</li>
<li>Naming the suit Hybrid Assistive Limb or Hal</li>
</ul>
<p>I&#8217;m not sure if I like their use of all the darker films where the robots turned on the humans and killed them but being an optimist I go to my happy place and think that the ominous warnings given in the films is what was on their minds&#8230; besides the suit needs us so if it gained sentience and went crazy it would merely assimilate humans instead of killing us off.</p>
