Porch Pirate Gets 12 Gauge Christmas Surprise

Hi!

Hope you are having a wonderful week—and if you're celebrating Christmas—you're able to relax and enjoy all the festivities a bit.

Unfortunately, during this Holiday Season—thieves aren't taking any time off—and videos of "porch pirates" stealing Christmas packages from homes are being uploaded almost as fast as the crooks are trying to steal them.

On the upside—some people are hoping to make  criminals think twice by using clever methods—from loading "dummy" packages with heavy rocks and dog droppings—to one guy who claims to have added a mechanized "fart spray" to a decoy parcel—set to go off when it was opened.

: )

------------------------------------

Today's very entertaining video—shows a home at night, decorated with cheery Christmas lights—as a thief saunters up to the porch to steal a package conspicuously left there.

A Screen Capture From The Video Below

Fortunately for us—he gets a nice surprise instead—when a 12 gauge shotgun blank is triggered and goes off when he picks it up—and the video shows him hilariously sprinting off into the darkness.

: )

Whether your celebrations have been dampened by thieves this year or not—it's quite funny and VERY satisfying video to watch.

Enjoy!

Hilarious TV Commercial - Diving Competition?

Screen Capture From Video Below - Judges Scoring John Smiths Brewery's Hilarious Diving Competition

---------------------------------------

Hi!

Most of the time TV commercials are a pain—interrupting programs and trying to sell us services and products that often don't even slightly interest us.

On rare occasions—though—they can be quite entertaining.

Thankfully—Culturepub seeks these out and shares them so we can all enjoy their magnificence.  : )

Case in point is this 2003 commercial for John Smiths Brewery in Tadcaster, North Yorkshire, England.

It shows a diving competition with—shall we say—an unusual competitor.

Hope it gives you a laugh too.

Hilarious: What Happens When You Reply To An E-mail Scammer

Writer and Comedian James Veitch Speaking At His Recent Ted Talk

Hi!

I imagine everyone by now has received one of THOSE e-mails....

You know...the one from someone...often a Nigerian Prince...offering you easy money...IF you only help them get untold millions of dollars...or gold...etc...out of their country. 

But first you must transfer money to them!  A thousand or two is usually a good start. 

: ) 

Of course...most of us KNOW it's just a scam and delete the e-mail and move on.  

But writer and comedian James Veitch received such an e-mail...and decided to begin a correspondence with a scammer...with hilarious results.

He shared all about it at a recent TED Talk you see in the video below.

Enjoy!

Very Funny Video: John Lennon (and Bob Dylan) Audition On "The Voice"

Hi!

Unless you NEVER watch TV...you've probably heard of the talent competition on NBC called "The Voice".

Just in case you haven't:  Singers compete on the show to get the panel of all-star, celebrity judges (Adam Levine, Blake Shelton, Usher and Shakira) to choose them for their "team" and a chance to stay on the show.

The "twist" is that it is a "blind" competition...and initially the judges cannot see who's singing unless they "choose" them first.

Generally the level of talent is AMAZING and you see and hear some very PHENOMENAL singers.

-----------------

I just found a hilarious video mash-up with an old clip of John Lennon singing "Imagine"...inter-cut with scenes from the show.

The video is very well done and looks like Lennon really is auditioning for the competition.

It really drives home what a different environment entertainers find themselves in today compared to the 1970's.

At the end of this video there is a humorous reference to Bob Dylan too.

Enjoy!
