Whiz of the Web: Wednesday Whiz-Up

The best of the internet, squirted out in flavorful neon globules, just for you.

Ah, this brings us back: it's "Yakko's World," in which one of the odder animated characters of recent years sings us the name of every nation on Earth. That's good stuff. (Via)

Swear you can see faces and patterns in your wallpaper, like that lady in that one story? Well, you'd be right if you were staring at wallpaper from Paper Voyeur, which has naughty pictures of naked people hidden in its designs. If you decide to purchase, it seems only right to us that you should get the yellow wallpaper, so why not try "illuminescent gold and chocolate?" (Via)

22 Panels that Always Work is kind of a tutorial for beginner comic book artists. 22 Panels that Always Work...Sometimes is a parody of same, and perhaps not quite as useful, though certainly more entertaining. (Via)

More after the jump...

More people have used Nintendo's DS Wi-Fi Connection service than there are people living in 15 different US states. Damn. Sure wish we could get numbers like that...

Who didn't love "Mystery Science Theater 3000," the only show ever where a guy and his robots make fun of bad movies in space? Whoever those people are, they are sick and wrong and require punching. Anyways, for the rest of us, there's good news: Mike Nelson, who wrote for the show for pretty much its entire run, and starred for half, is carrying the concept forward with RiffTrax, which are silly DVD commentary tracks that you can buy for a few bucks and download off the site. Cool! Of course, there is an essential paradox here, in that if it's a bad movie that you don't like you probably won't have a copy and will have to go rent it or something, but if it's a good movie and you do have a copy, you probably won't want to hear it made fun of. Still, awesome idea.
