I get a kick out of all the trick shot videos out there. From Dude Perfect to the guy slanging the frisbee off the bridge onto a moving boat, I find them entertaining.
One thing I can do without though, is hipsters. Now even though I find hipsters eye-rollingly annoying (is that even a term?), I can't help but give them props for this trick "shot" video. In the video they do a number of random shots where they are trying to land a vinyl record on a turntable. Innovative.
They are probably "over it".

Brian May, the guitarist for famed rock band Queen, has said that original frontman Freddie Mercury will be making an appearance at the 10 year anniversary show of the musical We Will Rock You.
One problem...Freddie passed away in 1991.
The Swedish duo Dada Life have released the official video to their smash hit "Kick Out the Epic Motherfucker". The video has everything you could want. Cameos, bananas, going Office Space on a printer and just basically smashing everything in site. Check it out and also check out their video for "Rolling Stone T-shirt". It is a masterpiece as well.
Over the last few years, the common thing for college baseball teams to post is their dance offs against each other during rain delays. Though humorous at first, they have become completely played out. How many times can you watch the same routine over and over? Well props to the Harvard Baseball team who thought of a clever way to create a funny viral video. During a road trip in a 15 passenger van, the players lip-sync Carly Rae Jepsen's "Call Me Maybe". At first it looks like there is only one player singing but by the end, every seat is full. There is choreography and all. Also, one of the players slept through the entire thing.

If you remember last Summer when Amy Whinehouse passed away, Coldplay paid tribute to her by starting their super hit "Fix You" with a bit of her song "Rehab". Well in true class fashion, Chris Martion and crew paid tribute to the fallen Beastie Boys member, Adam "MCA" Yauch, who lost his battle with cancer last week. Like only Martin can, they gave a moving rendition of "Fight For Your Right" that relied heavily on the piano and Martin's vocals. It's a must listen. I got chills during the end.
"I said Mom you're just jealous, it's the Beastie Boys....And so we're sending all our love to the Beastie Boys"
This weeks Hump Day Hottie was brought to our attention by Adam White of Chicago. Adam, we salute you. Paola Shea is who Adam picked. She is from Connecticut ('Merica!) and she is a model and has graced the pages of Maxim as well as publications like Super Street. She has also had small parts in movies, while playing a large part in my heart. I wonder how many people read that. I know most of you came for the photos. Anyways, enjoy more of Paola Shea below and check out her website here. Also, hit her up on Twitter and tell her she is a Hump Day Hottie! Might as well follow us on Twitter too right?no comments
CLICK HERE TO SUPPORT PENCILS OF PROMISE AND GET 3LAU'S NEW REMIX, BACK TO NEW
A couple weeks ago, Fist in The Air was running a contest where you could win tickets to go see Justin Blau, aka 3LAU (pronounced Blaow), in concert. The contest was simple, ask a question to 3LAU and the best one got the tickets. I couldn't think of anything good to ask, so I took to twitter and posed the question from one of my favorite movies...
