Death Bed ... It's the Bed That Eats!

Here’s a clip from the forgotten classic, 1977’s Deathbed, which was momentarily made less forgotten by Patton Oswalt using it in one of his bits. (Film Drunk)

Us Weekly got their hands on the footage of Michael Jackson’ hair catching on fire. You know, this is the sort of thing I would expect from TMZ, but Us? For shame. (Webster’s)

Esquire sent an interviewer who had never heard of Gerard Butler to interview Gerard Butler. I’d like to see them pull that crap on Christian Bale. (Agent Bedhead)

I had no idea so many films had five sequels of notable quality, but here are the ten best sixth installments of film franchises. (Spout)

After the positive feedback from yesterday’s “Supernatural” linkage, here is a ridiculously adorable kitten with two friends named “Dean Bearchester” and “Sammie the Lambie.” Thanks, Kathleen! (XOXO, Erin)

Because you don’t really want your kids to put their Guinea Pig in the toilet, here are the top five rejected toys from Disney’s G-Force. (Screen Junkies)

Speculation is swirling about a Mr. and Mrs. Smith sequel. Wouldn’t it be hilariously ironic if they actually split up while filming this one? (Celebitchy)

Celebrity wax figures are creepy enough to begin with, but here are celebrity wax figures gone horribly wrong. (Frothy Girlz)

I like the idea of gummy vitamins, except for the part where I would eat the entire jar in one sitting and then overdose on vitamins. (Impulsive Buy)

Finally, someone attempts to answer the age-old question, “Which is better: Zombies or vampires?” (Notes on Bar Napkins)

Oh. My. God. Gross. If you don’t enjoy gross-out tampon stories, (but really, who doesn’t?) I suggest you just steer clear of this link. (Zelda Lily)

These are hilarious. Here are some mostly safe for work (except for language) awesomely terrible examples or porn acting. (Holy Taco)

Did you know Brad Pitt had a role on “Dallas?” Here are some other early TV appearances of big stars. One time I saw Christopher Walken on an episode of “Hawaii 5-0.” That was awesome. (mental floss)

And now, here is Alicia Silverstone and Alanis Morissette in My Mother’s Red Hat. Seriously, how much do you love them?

I...I don't know what to do, guys.

I came home from work yesterday and my wife was...she was...watching Madea Goes to Jail.

*sob*

Now she's watching Madea's Family Reunion.

I thought she was perfect, but now that we've been married a while all the dark secrets start coming to light.

I'm heartbroken.

I once dared a college friend of mine to eat an entire bottle of children's gummy vitamins while intoxicated. He did, along with half a pepperoni pizza. Half an hour later I found him writhing out on the floor. He then got his stomach pumped.

Man I miss college....

That's when you check the box marked Irreconcilable Differences, Snath.

Snath: You're going to need a young priest and an old priest.

Posted by: Steven Lloyd Wilson at July 16, 2009 1:18 PM

Pfft, half a pepperoni pizza? That's bush league, my friend.

I can't do this anymore, but when I was younger and had partaken of some sweet and sticky green, I could eat a whole extra large Papa John's barbecue chicken and bacon pizza, along with two orders of chicken strips.

The insane part is that I was thinner and in the best shape of my life throughout that time period, because I rode my bike everywhere instead of taking the bus or driving, and I worked out everyday. Now, I can't eat anywhere near that much, but I'm heavier and totally out of shape.

The irony, it burns me.

Posted by: Snath at July 16, 2009 1:18 PM

Mmmm...Flintstones vitamins. I was addicted to those damned things.

Snath, that is one of those situations when you go out and get yourself the finest hooker. Because, as everybody knows, two wrongs make a syphilitic right.

"Mmmm...Flintstones vitamins. I was addicted to those damned things."

Oh my, yes. I could make myself sick eating those things.

My sister, on the other hand, had a thing for aspirin - the plain uncoated kind. She ate about half a bottle one day and got really bad stomach cramps. I can't stand the taste of them though. They make me gag.

Posted by: elsie at July 16, 2009 1:41 PM

I couldn't help it. I clicked on the tampon story. And now I have questions. Plus, I'm a bit nauseous.

Posted by: Jeni at July 16, 2009 1:47 PM

Bad sign: I read "Did you know Brad Pitt had a role on “Dallas?” and thought, "duh!"

Posted by: whatBENwatches at July 16, 2009 1:47 PM

I third the flinstone vitamins, although, today's gummy vites are better.

Does anyone else remember the pink liquid version of Amoxycilin (antibiotic)? I remember getting it a few times for minor colds and was unbelievably eager to drink the stuff. I threw a temper tamptrum when my mom brought home the pill kind...and why yes, I did try crushing the pink pill and mixing it with water to make it taste good again. Fail...

Was it actually delicious, or, was I just a weird little bastard?

Posted by: "Luker" the barbarian at July 16, 2009 1:49 PM

Kind of related but not really:

A couple of years ago, my sister really wanted a guinea pig. Really wanted one. And it's kinda hard to find them here. So my brother went around to like 50 pet stores and didn't find a guinea pig. But he found out that there was a place outside the city that sold them.

So he goes to this place, a sort of nondescript house with a big yard and in the yard there's a little enclosure with a bunch of guinea pigs. Score, he thinks.

He knocks on the door and gets to talk to the owner of the place and asks the owner if he'll sell him a guinea pig. The guy's answer?

"Sure. How do you want it cooked?"

And he was serious. Dude was from Peru. They eat guinea pigs there. On spits.

Oh, I defintely remember that stuff. As far as liquid medicine goes, it didn't taste that bad. I don't think I liked it as much as you did though.

Posted by: Jeni at July 16, 2009 1:54 PM

I can see how you might get most of the way through a rare prime rib before you noticed the string ...

BTW, EE and the Bangables would be a pretty good band name, what?

Posted by: , (the commenter formerly known as bucdaddy) at July 16, 2009 1:55 PM

Delicious. Plus you had to refrigerate it! Then one day the doctor prescribes pills, and you realize you've grown up, and the fun's over, and you don't quit for the day around 1 for a holiday party at school anymore either. It all goes wrong.

Posted by: Jay at July 16, 2009 1:57 PM

The Patton Oswalt bit involving Death Bed: The Bed That Eats People is insanely hilarious.

The movie itself is atrocious.

Posted by: Alon at July 16, 2009 2:01 PM

Ah...the Flinstones. The first time we got a bottle, we all had one, decided it tasted great and had another one, etc. My brother, who ate the most, had stomach cramps a few hours later and ended up producing bright green poop. Moral of the story--kids, don't OD on candy vitamins unless you really want to do green poo (which is _cool_).

Posted by: True_Blue at July 16, 2009 2:01 PM

Speaking of EE, where's skitz been since his triumphant victory? I hope he isn't in a hospital bed somewhere after a weeklong celebratory bacchanal, with no memory of who he is or where he's been, and having amputated Wendell WITH HIS OWN TURKEY CLAW during a blackout.

Wait ... I think I saw just that in "The Hangover."

Posted by: , (the commenter formerly known as bucdaddy) at July 16, 2009 2:03 PM

Snath,

Start acting like a stereotypically crazy black woman. You know, snap your fingers in people's faces, make crazy eyes at anyone that looks at you for more than 1.2 seconds, talk really loudly over everyone even though you have nothing to say, make inappropriate sexual comments about other people's relationships, call everyone "child", and wear gigantic pink fake nails. When the wife asks what you're doing, start jerking your head and neck around and say, "Ever since you watched dem Medea movies, Tyler Perry is my heeero ya triflin' bitch!"

Works every time.

Posted by: Kballs at July 16, 2009 2:08 PM

The tampon incident was, I presume, at the BULL and Bear, not the Bill and Bear. Wow. That restaurant needs to offer a fat settlement. Now.

Posted by: samantha t at July 16, 2009 2:14 PM

Thank you so much for linking to my blog post about my kitten Watson's favorite Supernatural inspired toys. Sammie the Lambie and Dean Bearchester are both very much still in the playtime mix.

Posted by: Erin at July 16, 2009 2:18 PM

Did any one else, when seeing the Jacko clip, instantly flash to The Spirit of Jazz.

Think about it...

I hated pink liquid Amoxicillin. It tasted like poison pink jellybeans. Bleccchh. Although, when the doctor started giving me pills instead of liquids, I discovered I had issues with swallowing, and so my mom had to crush them up in applesauce for me. True Story. (You'll all be pleased, no doubt, to know that I have since overcome those issues.)

i did love orange Triaminic, though. That stuff, I was addicted to. Also, St. Joseph's baby aspirin, and those pink and purple and orange chewable vitamins (not Flintstones, I never had those. We had some square ones. They were tasty, though).

Posted by: Anna von Beaverplatz at July 16, 2009 2:33 PM

Crap. That video made me almost like Alanis Morissette. The apocalypse must be nigh.

Posted by: gelis at July 16, 2009 2:37 PM

AvB, orange Triaminic is one of the most delicious things Modern Medicine has ever wrought. I want to make Italian sodas out of it, or pour it over ice cream. Maybe just on the rocks in a tumbler... mmmm....

Posted by: The Wandering Parakeet at July 16, 2009 2:46 PM

Parakeet, none of that fancy stuff for me. Give me the bottle and a straw and I'll be a happy camper.

The funniest part was that I never really liked orange flavor anything, other than those 2 items. I even skipped the orange vitamins in favor of the pink and the purple. There's just something about the specific flavor of that Triaminic... The baby aspirin were all about the texture.

Posted by: Anna von Beaverplatz at July 16, 2009 2:57 PM

"poison pink jellybeans"

AvB

Your description just shows how delicious amoxicilin really was...

What does every little child like?

Jellybeans = Candy = Child Approved

Pink = Bright Color = Child Approved

Poison = Exciting = Child Approved

Thus, poison pink jellybeans would be a great marketing pitch for those under the age of 10.

Interestingly enough, when one substitutes Michael Bay for Child and Boobs for Jellybeans, one gets the same outcome!

My theory also logically requires that the neon-puke-green Mr. No (what where they called? that thing with the unhappy face?) poison stickers should also have made things more exciting to children than they would otherwise have been.

Posted by: "Luker" the barbarian at July 16, 2009 3:04 PM

Liquid amoxicillin tasted like chalk to me. I let that shit sit in the fridge.

When I want some tasty meds, nothing beats a shot of orange Chloraseptic and a handful of Advil. But only the brown, 200 mg Advil. I don't know what they coat those pills with, but it is delicious.

Posted by: Brie at July 16, 2009 3:15 PM

I do not believe that tampon story for a minute.
It's one thing to find part of a finger in a bowl of chili, which is made up of who knows what ground up meaty bits, but to find a complete bloody tampon INSIDE a steak? I don't think so.
Inside a cabbage roll? Maybe. Cherry strudel? Possibly. Steak? Never.

Posted by: BWeaves at July 16, 2009 3:37 PM

but to find a complete bloody tampon INSIDE a steak? I don't think so.

That was my issue too. A steak is a solid piece of meat. Did someone hollow out space for the tampon? I don't understand.

Posted by: Jeni at July 16, 2009 3:48 PM

Now I want a guinea pig. On my grill.

Vicodino was always my favorite. Wait, were yours wrapped in a plastic bag? Yours came in a bottle? From a store?

Goddamn you gave me chills, I will never watch that clip. NEVER!

Posted by: Mona at July 16, 2009 6:56 PM

Jeebus, what happened to Alicia Silverstone? She makes Alanis look hot.

Posted by: , (the commenter formerly known as bucdaddy) at July 16, 2009 7:53 PM

branded Vicodin is so awesome, I'm sincerely glad I have no access to it. I'd be on Intervention in no time. It's the most perfect mellow high EVER.

Now I'll shut up and drink my stupid tequila.

Posted by: Snuggiepants the Deathbringer at July 16, 2009 10:25 PM

Know what'd be great? A movie about a bed with Magic Fingers -- with REAL FINGERS! EVIL real fingers! Fingers that hook into your various orifices and ...

muwahahahahahahahahaha!

Sweet dreams!

I love gummi vites! My mom used to get me giant bottles of them from Costco. Then I went off to college and all my roommates went through my entire bottle in like a month. I was so mad because i was so good about eating just 5 day (I know it's 1 a day but that was for like a puny 5 year old, and i was a 18 year old... little asian girl. But yea you get the point. - Gummi vites= deliciouso.)

Posted by: dene at July 17, 2009 12:14 AM

I'll never look at garter snakes the same way again, and I see them almost every day.
/Shudder/

Posted by: Lindsey with an 'e' at July 17, 2009 3:00 AM

Man, I loved that pink Amoxicillin. I used to down bottles of it. It was so bad that at one point I drank a whole bottle of it that wasn't even prescribed to me. It was for one of the kids my mom was caring for at her daycare. I saw it in the fridge and took a sip thinking, "Hey no one will know." But then every few minutes or so I would come back for more. Until it was all gone. It was bad, but boy was it delicious.

And yeah the brown advil are tasty too. Do they coat it with simple syrup or something?

Posted by: kayla at July 17, 2009 11:04 AM

Lurker - I think the neon green stickers were Mr. Yuck. I too loved the liquid amoxycillin and the always delicious baby aspirin.

Posted by: lulu at July 17, 2009 2:53 PM

the brown advil are tasty, but risky

I'm always afraid if i let it sit on my tongue too long the deliciousness will give way to horrible mediciney bitterness
