Bellicose bell peppers

Happy Monday,

Hope you had a good weekend. It's been a while since I’ve seen something as creative as this abridged history of American-centric war, from World War II to present day, told through the foods of the countries in conflict. Watch as traditional comestibles slug it out for world domination in this chronologically re-enacted smorgasbord of aggression.

Orange peel teeth trick
We all did this as kids -- or even adults -- but this guy is a pro. A little too good with a knife for comfort, and has the creepy air of a horror movie villain. Still, it's an amusing little trick; also works with chewing gum and peanuts.

Mathmaticious
An integral pop music satire that derives pleasure by going off on a radical tangent.

50 Greatest Comedy Sketches of All Time
There's no more sure-fire way to kill something's intrinsic comedic value than to try to examine what makes it funny. The minute you start thinking, you stop laughing. So why, then, have Nerve and IFC.com devoted an enormous amount of time, manpower, monetary resources, server space and posh catered lunches to the pursuit of ranking the boobtube's finest sketch comedy offerings?
