1. If you combined Nick Cave, Tom Waits, Johnny Cash, and The Doors into one voice, how would it sound?
2. Never seen an adult male cry? It's "weird"?
3. Imitating rock stars by their walk.
4. The inside of one of those twee cabins.
5. Nominees for the Dad Award for Food-Related Fails.
7. The "My dog stepped on a bee" meme. (Don't worry: No dogs stepping on bees — or even any dogs or bees — in this video.)

Without watching them all, #7 was the clear winner.
the rock star walk.
I liked the stop on a bee thing. Also men crying.
Thanks for these.
I was all set to hand the trophy to the guy imitating rock stars by their walk. He was outstanding. But...
Then I saw the interior of one of those twee cabins and they're growing on me. They are so nicely done- for small living spaces. I love it. Except for the idea of showing in the cold of autumn and winter wherever they are. So that kinda mesmerized me for a minute...But..
Then...the Dad Award for food-related fails came on and it was too real, too perfect, and too funny to ignore. Definitely the award winner today. Dads being dads (or I guess you could say 'men being men') are almost always a winner.
No. 6 Almost as annoying and tedious as Ira Glass himself, which was the point, wasn't it?
An imitation of Philip Glass might be interesting -- Da-da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-da-zing-ding-dong...Da-da-zing-ding-dong...(quarter rest, quarter rest, quarter rest) Laaaaaaaaah.
Number 3 made me laugh out loud - -good clean humor.
Excellent selections today! Not a bad one in the bunch. Can't stop laughing at 5, 6, 7.
Althouse saved the best for last.
It’s got to be #7.
Imitating rock stars by their walk made me laugh the hardest.
Honorable mentions to Nominees for the Dad Award and My dog stepped on a bee.
The guy who imitates rock stars was the funniest, followed by the Ira Glass guy. If you can do good impressions you are halfway to being professional -- or you would be if doing impressions was still a show biz thing. The others were amateurs, weirdos or not up to speed yet.
Interior of cabin (which is like a little gnome home).
Dad awards.
My kids still tell the story of how I screamed and ranted when I broke a tooth on a pebble hidden in a salad I had ordered. The restaurant paid my dental bill and more. My kids were mortified by my behavior. Good times.
I loved the satire of Ira Glass- because it was so well done. BUT i hate that guy's voice and speaking pattern so much, I was still grinding my teeth.
That whole twee, effeminate, passive-agressive NPR Male way of talking makes me want to rip the radio out of my dashboard and throw it out the window. The worst moment is when the wussy NPR guy pretends to be SUPER interested in Sports and has some journalist on to discuss the week in sports. Gosh, that Tiger Woods sure is amazing isn't it? OR we're so SAD our BELOVED Red Sox are losing again. I also love how they're not incredibly worked up over English soccer.
My dog stepped on a bee for the winner!

I've come to the Heards of Tik Tok.
I take it We are not accepting Amber Heard's testimony at face value?
What if there were an Amber Herd? Would it have immunity?
You had me at “The Doors”. Yet, I was disappointed b/c that fella creeped me out- not gonna lie.
It was soooo slooow. Was the bot stoned.
I loved them all- was kind of afraid of the grown men crying before watching- then I saw I had nothing to worry about. And yeah- A Heard is not my idea of attractive.
My dog stepped on a bee…. BuZzzz. My fave.
They say actors are great liars. Guess that is another myth down the tubes.
Rock star walk is the winner. Fun fact: There is gait recognition technology, a version of which was introduced a few years back by the Chinese company Watrix. They claim that the system identifies people in videos by silhouette and gait from a distance of 50 meters at an accuracy of 94%.
Privacy is dead.
The twee cabins would be interesting if not for the woman Tik Toker’s desperate need to display her body - I’m sure it adds followers, but it’s eye rolling.
"They say actors are great liars."
Actors have to believe they are good actors, but even if they are, screen acting isn't about looking exactly like real life. It's about making your face fascinating within a story that has things happening to your character in real time. In court, you're recounting an incident from the past in a solemn setting. You're responding to questions soberly, not asked to relive the incident and summon up all the emotions.
The Ira Glass one was hilarious! I liked both of the Amber Heard meme ones and really they were all pretty entertaining.
As for the little cabins, do yourself a favor and look at more of the videos on that channel. The woman is as hot as the cabins are cute.
I enjoyed the preponderance of man energy all the way through, how guys cry is so dear, accented with a taste of Amber at the beginning and at the end.
A funny, Charming dance card today, thanks, althouse.
"They say actors are great liars."
That's why it is so eerie that our new dis-information over-lordess likes to cut a rug on the stage!
Little house in the rain forest.
Also "cheese fingers"
Rock star walks: made me laugh out loud.
They are so nicely done- for small living spaces.
I immediately wondered what it would be like to make that bed. The stove was also pretty minimal and needed a hood, the storage space was limited, and the shower wouldn't work in a colder climate. The outhouse I wouldn't mind, or at least I didn't when I was young, might want to supplement with a bedpan.
Ann wasting time. What does Meade think?
Winehouse wins
You said 'twee'. You don't hear or see that much, particularly in American parlance. Indubitably.
Me likely her outdoor shower!
