Far East Backstreet Boys

We at TBS believe that some things are universal--things like love, hate, laughter...and boy bands.

Don't believe us? Check out this stirring rendition of a recent boy band ballad, sent to us from the other side of the world.

You will believe a man can fly.

Some people have too much time on their hands.

The Land Walker

We knew it. As soon as we saw that evil robot from the Robocop movies years ago, we knew that man would one day try to build it.

And now our worst fears have come true, without Robocop here to save us. What are we to do?

Well, we'll probably just laugh.  After all, who's going to pay $300,000 for a slow-moving battle robot that our grandmother could drive circles around in her wheelchair?

And are those nerf arrows that it's shooting?

Dilbert Blogs

Well, not Dilbert really, but his creator, Scott Adams.

We know you've wasted time at work with Dilbert before, and now you're wasting time with us.  If you have so much time to waste, you may as well click the link.

Go on, do it.  We won't tell your boss.

Wanted: Brave Man to buy Leather Pants

Part of the story attached to a pair of leather pants for sale on a very popular auction site:

"I can explain these pants and why they are in my possession. I bought them many, many years ago under the spell of a woman whom I believed to have taste. She suggested I try them on. I did. She said they looked good. I wanted to have a relationship of sorts with her. I’m stupid and prone to impulsive decisions. I bought the pants."

TRICK OR TREAT, '80s STYLE

Instead of the same old costumes every kid will be wearing, why don't you encourage your kids to try on one of these Halloween costumes of yesteryear?

Sure, they won't know who the characters from "Welcome Back Kotter" or "Joanie Loves Chachi" are. But if you're going to have to walk house-to-house with them, you should at least be involved in the costume selection process, right?

For Pete's sake, put a shirt on!

Are you a big man and proud of it?  Show off your wide pride by wearing one of these clever t-shirts.

Let the whole world will know what you've already figured out: fat is the new thin, baby.

Beware the Rat Monster Man...thing...

Want a recipe for an instant scare this Halloween?  Take one PETA member and add one genetically mutated rat.

Sure, this guy will have nightmares for months.  But it made us laugh, and that's all that matters.

Sometimes, the jokes just write themselves.

Big Unit, Wang available in Yanks' bullpen.

'Nuff said.

(And yes, we know the Yankees have already been eliminated from MLB playoffs.  We looked around for a headline that said something like "Big Unit, Wang fail to satisfy fans", but we couldn't find one.)

Rick Moranis: Country Crooner

You remember Rick Moranis, right?  Short, goofy character actor who played a possessed accountant in Ghostbusters and a bumbling inventor in Honey, I Shrunk the Kids?

Well, now he's a country singer.  You can listen to him sing and buy his self-produced CD online.

Which reminds us, we're planning on winning the lottery this week.  Hey, if Rick Moranis can become a cowboy, anything is possible.
