FOUREYES - Brilliant short about puberty and glasses

PalmliX says...

Besides the centre-framed shots and the vintage-style color correction this is really nothing like Wes Anderson, especially where music selection and editing is concerned.

Is 'Wes Anderson Films' a genre now?

Polish Excavator Fail of Epic Proportions

Maybe it's just proof that more of us have cameras to capture these dumb moments that have always existed.

This seems to be a trend lately, flipping a vehicle back on it's wheels while forgetting to set the brake or put it in gear. Is this proof we're getting dumber on average?

Basebowling

Fake how? Like CG bowling pins or something? It's throwing a ball at a relatively hit-able target, not unlike what thousands of people do every day when they pitch baseballs. This guy looks to have some decent form, I just don't really see why this would need to be 'faked', unless you consider NOT showing the times when he wasn't as successful (i.e. editing) to be fake.

Grand Theft Auto V (GTA5) - Stop Firing Rockets At My House!

PalmliX says...

I think point is how they thought of everything for this game when even a seemingly random action that most people wouldn't think to do has a voice line recorded for it.

Carly Rae Jepsen Throws Terrible First Pitch

PalmliX says...

If you watch the entire episode they find that the differences between men and women's throwing ability is almost entirely cultural. i.e. boys are more exposed to ball sports than girls. Pro women ball players have the same technique as the men. When asked to throw with their opposite hand (i.e. left instead of right) the men basically did no better than the women. The pelvis shape thing was just a theory they threw out there initially when they didn't finish doing all their tests.

Mythbusters recently did a scientific analysis on the difference in throwing posture between boys and girls. It's always been obvious that females tend to look much different than boys when throwing, but I never realized until seeing that episode that the specific reason is girls stay almost vertical throughout the throw and boys tend to go almost horizontal. Part of the reason for that seems to be the physiology of the pelvis.

I found that to be rather fascinating. Call me maybe.

Bad Question to Ask a Chess Player

PalmliX says...

He's one of the best chess players in the world! Maybe everyone is just too used to the 'non-answers' that most pro-athletes tend to give. Unlike pro-sports, top chess players tend to actually give truthful and detailed answers that don't assume the audience is completely ignorant. I'm a casual player myself and was able to follow this. Granted he has a strong accent and talks rapidly but I was still able to follow it.

The other thing you have to keep in mind is that he's answering this question within the context of the game he just played. If you didn't watch the game, or don't have the positions in front of you then yah, this answer would essentially be meaningless.

Missing Jon Stewart? He's on Egyptian Jon Stewart's show!
