That would be the shotgun blast of obligatory one-liners for that vid?

Who wear short shorts?

Those are pretty perky boobs

Is she wearing a tie?

Maybe it's a medical condition and she can't button up her shirt?

I wonder which part of her job does she take more seriously, a weather reporter or an eye candy?

Does the carpet match the drapes?

You are not alone.

I love how she wipes her hands on her clothes (I thought I was the only one).

Why, thank you, sir.

I think his best work is from 2002 with Alice and Blood Money. Awesome all around, though.


You have good taste and are incredibly handsome.

my local news is:

a combination of TMZ,
network show ad placements,
weather reports for places i dont live,

and month old clips from break.com that the reporters get off on as if it was 1996, and it took a whole hour to download a super unique minute long clip on their 28.8 and they were doing us a favor by sharing.

fucking journalism degree liberal arts cop out assholes, at their best.

that squirrels face is gonna stink.

edit: no offense to you liberal arts majors who get jobs teaching your own subjects... we need teachers.

thanks man ! !

Good vid - but I wish these explanations of stats and coincidence would go the extra step. None of them are interested in talking about the mathematics of situations when coincidence is very unlikely. The dice example is a good one to demonstrate what I mean. While the chance of throwing a combined 7 with two dice is 1/6, the chances of doing it twice in a row are 1/36, and three in a row is 1/216. So, throwing 3 7s in a row is highly unlikely. I'm not making an argument for the supernatural, but there are weird coincidences I've seen that stats would have a hard time explaining as simple coincidence. Coin flipping is another favorite example, usually something like this. Imagine you are flipping a coin, and the last ten times it came up heads. What are the chances it will come up heads on the next throw. Well, obviously the answer is 1/2. But the more important question, to me, is what are the chances of flipping heads 10 times in a row to begin with? Less than 1/1000. Which makes the original question somewhat absurd.

This isn't just true with dice and coins (independent events) though. Take the dream example, for instance. In the video, the imagined situation is a dream filled with all sorts of weird shit during a thunderstorm. So, of course, a thunderstorm later that day shouldn't be surprising (especially if the dreamer saw the local weather report the night before). On the other hand, what if the actual event that happens corresponds to some ridiculously unlikely event, say something like an airliner flying into a skyscraper (this is a real example, btw). Compute the chances of dreaming that and it actually happening. Absurdly small. I wouldn't want to assign any supernatural cause to the dream, but it is one of those data points that is very hard to account for. And, imho, explanations of chance and statistics like this should address the point.

I can see this clip winding up in some dusty archive, filed under "Propaganda - American, circa 2008".

Nice weather report for the warzones. Make sure you don't talk about bombs blowing up, or soldiers dying, or any of that unseemly fighting stuff you hear about sometimes.

yes, it's completely freakin random actually, with a very slight bias towards fluffy animals.
the system just isn't designed to be fair, the user base expanded and the system didn't adapt.

which is why i can't really be bothered to post stuff much any more, and i don't really worry about getting votes.
also it's annoying that i miss really good videos because the filtering is so brokened.

loads of stuff in the top 15 needed a requeue or a save... why? coz teh system don't work.

Hmm - I seem to remember submitting this a month or so ago and it getting no notice That's the way she goes I guess.

For writers and musicians, drinking on the job can positively affect their output. Apparently that's not the case with weather reporting.
