Know Your Enemy (Part 1 - Introduction)
I do dig Ecclesiastes - easily the most raw, human and cynical chapter of the good book.
http://videosift.com/video/Scorpion-vs-Black-Widow-Intense-sheesh?loadcomm=1#comment-290039
In short, here is why I think the main, overarching plot of the Bible is silly.
Summary:
God creates flawed humans.
Flawed humans do flawed things.
God punishes all present and future humans because of the flaws in his prototypes.
After many generations, God drowns 99.9% of his land dwelling creatures save two of each. (not sure why the fish get off so easy)
Despite this massive genocide, humans are still flawed.
God impregnates a human virgin woman - in a committed relationship - without consent - who gives birth to a human/God hybrid son. (Kinda weird and rape-y to be honest)
The son is tortured and 'dies for our sins'. (What does that even mean, couldn't God just forgive us without this cruel theatrical charade that so few people of the world are physically able to witness?)
Jesus comes back from the dead (which isn't really that big of a deal, considering he is a part God).
Finally, after all of this violence and suffering, God decides to destroy the world, and take those who believe in him to heaven, and to punish those with skeptical or scientific minds with eternal suffering.
I mean, I guess I can understand mass murder, if God thinks so little of us that our destruction is no more tragic than Atari burying thousands of copies of E.T. in the desert. But if we are insignificant ants, then why the strict moral code that forbids murder? Are we unique and special creatures, or just crash test dummies to be toyed with?
None of the actions of God seem wise for a being of such knowledge and power. The Bible sounds like mythology. It sounds like a combination of campfire stories, moral parables, juicy pulp fiction, dirty jokes, political posturing, medical advice and pre-scientific speculation. It sounds like an anthology of the best of the best literature of early human civilization.
If God were real, why doesn't he just openly and clearly communicate it? Why all the rites and rituals? "Hey, dft, this is God you atheist schmuck.... or should I say ex-athiest schmuck. Put down the pork and put on your beanie!" That would be clear and to the point, and if done convincingly, would add a pretty decent guy to the ranks of his faithful.
Also, his followers are so hung up on pride, that they miss a good chance of making a connection. I told you that I don't believe in Satan, but that I do oppose the greed and ruthless self interest that your Satan seems want to champion. If you cared more about the principles of the bible than the principals in the Bible, wouldn't you be serving your lord better? Shouldn't you nurture the things we have in common and downplay the stuff I think is absurd? Baby steps. Religionists have no strategy or common sense when it comes to apologetics. You argue with me as if I believe in God and Satan.
Anyway, I've made these points so many times, and they just bounce off the framework of faith, just as your points bounce off my framework of reason. There will be no headway because our criteria for belief run so contrary. I think it's cool that you fight for what you believe in so passionately, and wish people wouldn't downvote your videos to the point that they are killed. I do think you could come up with more productive styles of argument.
I'd be curious to get your opinion on this video: http://videosift.com/video/Why-I-am-no-longer-a-Christian-Must-Watch
Killer Elite
Needs more Yvonne. And less Scorpions.
Mortal Kombat: Legacy: Ep. 1 (New live action MK series)
so it's just a regular awful action movie with mortal kombat names? ugh?
To be fair, I'd say "below average" action movie.
And it just barely has Mortal Kombat names.. if I asked 10 geeks to name MK characters, I think most could name the fighters from the first game: Sonya, Liu Kang, Subzero, Scorpion, Raiden, Johnny Kage, and Kano (I think that's it). Some would know the bosses - Goro and Shang Tsung.
You'd have to be a fairly big fan to get Jax and Striker, I think. The only reason you have them is you have some actors you've decided on and that's the closest MK characters you can find.
Cleaning the Cobra Pit wearing Flip-flops
No, no, no, you're doin it wrong.
The proper way to clean a cobra pit is with a flamethrower. Cleans the cobras right out of there, no problem.
This also works on tarantulas, scorpions, hissing cockroaches, the black meat of the giant aquatic Brazilian centipedes, and clowns.

Euler's Disk
oddly enough this is also the sound of a thousand scorpions swarming.
What new channel would you like to see? (User Poll by Throbbin)
#combustion could work with a clarifying description, though I don't find it particularly interesting.
#irony might be more than the sift can handle. I can see vicious fights breaking out regularly over whether or not something is really ironic.
#insects would be another battlefront. I'd suggest making it #bugs instead if you went with this. Otherwise people will fight over whether or not critters like spiders, caterpillars, centipedes and scorpions belong in the channel.
#90s would be an easy one, though it doesn't excite me.
#indigenous could be pretty interesting, I think, with proper clarification. I like that it promotes new types of material instead of being just another category to put the same old crap we always sift in.
Azureus Rising - Kickass Proof Of Concept Trailer
Why did his sword slice through armored scorpion parts, but not human flesh?

Reporter vs Mr. Touchy
>> ^kymbos:
That's complicated. The reporter was a close talker of almost Seinfeldian proportions, and then mr Passive Agreesive - Mark? Mike? - really started fucking with him.
Thanks for the context, bleedmegood.
Indeed, kymbos. Mark/Mike's gentle tap seemed at first to be a great combo breaker for the typical, sometimes-excessive, sometimes-misplaced investigative reporter bullying, but his continued use of the tap attack got a little predictable. Depending on which side you'd root for, I'd recommend the reporter open up with a Hadouken to start round 2 to move PR dude off his spot, while PR dude can perhaps pull a Scorpion/Get Over Here from the back row of seats to prevent the reporter from getting too far into the room.
Driving a real world car like a videogame car
Whoa. Whoa. Okay, A) upvote for GTA music. B) No need to custom build a steel Z-bar for camera suspension when they rent scorpion tails for that exact of thing from film rental shops. And, C) the Asian driver won? That's totally cool because I'm not racist.
