    I laughed my ass off at the first one of these - and I'm amazed that apple actually put these up on their site. If I didn't already make the switch, i think santa would fix that for me.

    Does this mean Will Ferrell isn't really Santa? =(

    They're good, but they sure don't beat Microsofts' "Steve Ballmer plays big sweaty elf under the mistletoe showing off XP's security features" switch campaign.

    Is it just me, or does Will Ferrell in a Santa Suit remind you of the scene in Trading Places (83) where a very drunk Dan Akroyd wanders around in a Santa suit stealing food at a stock broker's christmas party...

    oh, it is just me? nevermind then.

      If I see another Star Wars parody I'm going to vomit and then stab my self in the eye with a butter knife. If you do a search on atom films for Star Wars you will get at least 50 parodys. THEY ARE NOT FUNNY ANYMORE. I hope you burn in hell for posting this.

  8. old? by dcstimm · · Score: 2, Funny

    isnt this old. I remember seeing one a long time ago that will farrell did, he was talking about pudding and it appered at the mac world show.

    Not surprising he is doing more.... Since he probably is broke since he stoped doing SNL.

    he is the funniest man alive

    Too bad he comes across as an arrogant fool who wouldn't know which part of his body goes on the toilet. If anything, I don't *want* to be associated with him in any fashion.

    "I'm a shitter. Not a porcelain user. I like to poop. When I feel like pooping, I want to just poop. In the street. At a Chinese restaurant. In my trousers.

    "With my old low-flow toilet, I had to be so crazy watchful of my bowel movements. The turkish G12 toilet from Pfitzer lets me stand an pinch one off, if I want. That's what pooping is about. Not porcelain, or barriers to my poopoing. I can shit right on the floor if I want. It's just a hole.

  10. I like this one better ... by belbo · · Score: 3, Funny
    The 'switch' parody from 'drunkgamers'. (URL points to a list of mirrors, file size is 14 MB, file type is .mov).

    Of course, Apple is hardly likely to post that one *g*

    b.

    P.S.: Who is Will Ferrell anyway?
