Let’s be real, shit is basically SUPER SPOOKY these days. Our nice big brothers over at Spike TV and our cousins at Paramount (I don’t know, I’m not a business expert) sent us this extra scary looking exclusive trailer for Paranormal Activity 2, the followup to the ALREADY RIDICULOUSLY SCARY ‘Paranormal Activity’ (First Sequence), that played during The Scream Awards on Spike. Check it out, right here!

Have you heard the latest (and most awesome) conspiracy theory to hit President Obama? The internets and TV news are on fire over Gawker.com’s claim to have spotted Obama in the video for Tag Team’s 1993 rap novelty, I mean classic, “Whoomp! (There It Is).”
This raises several questions, most strikingly: Who was spending their day watching Tag Team videos, and why?
While that mystery may never be solved, I pulled this original cut of the video off YouTube so you can decide for yourself. The video’s fuzzy, and it’s hard to make out the Obama-lookalike, but if you look hard, and don’t blink, he’s there – and I swear to God that IS President Obama. And by the way, this is a brand new, never-before-seen director’s cut. If you think you’ve already seen the Tag Team video with Obama, take another look, because this version features footage you probably didn’t notice the first time around:
Oh, and if you missed President Obama’s bizarre interview with Larry King last week, check it out here.
It’s a fun week at Atom when we get to work with some of our favorite comedians, and if you check our respective facebook profiles, Nick Kroll definitely qualifies. He’s got a new video out this week with one of my favorite characters, Bobby Bottleservice (I had to check if the surname Bottleservice was one word or two), auditioning for Jersey Shore.
The Jersey Shore is kind of a phenomenon right now, you know? So many people/comedic entities are doing parody videos! Hit the jump for our current favorites (hint, they feature the Mario Bros. and children and they’re both kind of in poor taste!)…
“I will wear you out…when was the last time you got (bleeped)?”

“Send me something very naughty…Go to the bathroom and take (a picture).”
We were shocked to find out this (alleged) news, but even more shocked that Tiger would send such boring sexts. The man is breaking racial barriers and is a multi-millionaire! Tiger! We knew he could do better, so Matt and I hacked into Tiger’s phone* to see if there was anything more interesting, and we were not disappointed**.
We wanted to give some shout-outs to the great people who worked on Intercourse With A Vampire, so here’s some info about the cast and crew.
Jacob Fleisher, creator and co-star, Jacob Fleisher has written for MTV, Comedy Central, TLC, A&E, Paramount, Fox and the Weinstein Company. Currently, he is co-writing a feature for Warner Brother studios. Also currently, he’s still wearing his fangs. Jacob lives in LA, but grew up in New York City, so he constantly complains about LA. He is wanted in 37 countries for crimes against hilarity. www.jacobfleisher.com
You guys are Mad Men fans, right? Sure, it’s kind of boring, and betterheads then I can break down what actually happens each season, I just know that it’s crazy slow, kind of boring, and the furniture they use is really expensive now. Also, everyone smokes all the time and boy, everyone was really unhappy in the 60s!
Anyway, love it or hate it, the Mad Men style is unmistakable, and it’s given rise to some great parodies. In honor of the finale of Season 3, here are some of our favorites.
Our friends at Spike released a “leaked trailer” for the new Twilight movie, and by that, they really mean a weird home-made mashup of a bunch of movies that are going to be featured in tomorrow night’s Scream Awards (10PM/9 Central on Spike) called Twilight of the Magical Truckmen: Rise of Megan Fox Nude. Check out the BEST VIDEO YOU’LL SEE ALL DAY after the jump (OK, so I’m over selling it).
Guys, let me be real here. I love Twitter. How else can I make fun of little kids or get into one-sided flame wars with my mom? But fine, I get it, mostly Twitter is just a downward spiral of just how illiterate you can be and still kind of communicate, but still, when it Twitter hits, it kind of rules.

This account is approached as if Biggie were still alive today, though still caught up in his early 90s ways, juxtaposed against his interactions with the current incarnations of his old Bad Boy Crew (Diddy, Lil’ Kim, I’m looking at your asses).
