Robert Cannon "Gerald McBoing-Boing" (1950)

Writing about The Cat Piano I had something at the back of my mind that just failed to come out. It was the narrative poems of Dr Seuss and in particular, Gerald McBoing-Boing , the winner of the 1950 Academy Award for Best Animated Short . A remarkably good film, it is the story of young Gerald McCloy who only speaks in sound effects. Baffling doctors, school and parents alike the young lad seems...

The return of BBTV: Boing Boing’s former video acronym taken over by bedbugs

We used to call our original video episodes "BBTV," and we don't anymore. We call it Boing Boing Video now. Well, ladies and germs, allow me to present to you the inheritor of that acronym: BBTV is now the name used by Bedbug TV, a guy who makes episodic web video content about how to deal with bedbugs. I think he runs a pest control company. His videos crack me up, particularly the first...

Bad-ass Mad Max campout weekend, complete with working gyrocopter!

Erin sez, "This past weekend in the Mojave desert Mad Max fans got together for a 3-day, one time only 'Road Warrior Weekend' campout and built replicas of the Gyrocopter and Interceptors." OK, so not only are these incredible vehicles and costumes -- but those are some damned stylish and attractive cosplayers. They should do a runway show. Road Warrior Weekend (Thanks, Erin!)

NYC tenants' rights flashcards

John sez, "Candy Chang teamed up with Tenants & Neighbors to create a boxed set of 30 flash cards on tenants' rights." Many residents in New York are unfamiliar with their housing rights.

Conscious "coma man"'s words seemingly delivered via discredited "facilitated communications" technique

The newswires and blogs (and Boing Boing) have been burning up with the news that a man who's been believed to have been in a coma for 23 years was in fact conscious the whole time, something we've only discovered thanks to his newfound ability to communicate using special apparatus. But there's very little information about Rom Houben's communications, save for a few images. And these images appear...

Get Your Hands on a Non-Functioning WETA Ray Gun [Ray Guns]

WETA, the special effects studio behind movies such as the Lord of the Rings trilogy, has a new line of prop rayguns, and they're actually sort of affordable this time. WETA has been selling incredible ray guns for a while now, but they've run into the hundreds of dollars range. The new line, Dr. Grordbort's Rayguns, are made of molded plastic instead of metal, bringing those prices down to a less-unreasonable...

Video Surfaces of Man Taking Anime Video Game Character To Be His Lawfully Wedded Wife [Gaming]

As promised , the wedding ceremony between a man named Sal9000 and Nene Anegasaki, a character from the Nintendo DS game Love Plus , was filmed and broadcast across the internet.
