The thing about long weekends is that it is so hard to get back into the swing of things the first morning back. It’s like your head is in a yogurt cup made out of TIME. Of course, the other thing about long weekends is that they’re great, and totally worth a little confusion for three hours one Tuesday morning every once in awhile. It’s like Doctor Gandalf said, we don’t choose the times…that we…have? We only choose, uh, what to blog with the…time…and Mordor. That’s one of his famous quotes!
The point is, let the rad times begin/continue:
“And here we go.”
–Jokers
Let’s have a rad day, you guys! Let’s have a rad week! (Video via DailyWhat.)
































Apparently long weekends mean forgetting to warn us when a video is NSFW.
Didn’t you hear? We are too rad for warnings.
My mom walked in on the strip-bar scene in Duke Nukem 3D once… I was confused as to what to feel at the time.
Here’s to memories.
Are you a pre-school teacher or a novitiate or something?
I’m so happy we’re back. I literally sat around making this face all weekend:

i just smudged my screen all up trying to smoosh those cheeks!
Make rad while the sun shines.
GABE: We look at these pictures together, OK? One time. And then we delete the evidence.
COEDS: Deal!
I’m furiously twiddling my thumbs in anticipation of the SNL recap. Welcome back Gabe.
Oh, me too. Spent the whole weekend waiting for it.
Oh thank god, you’re back.
Feminists everywhere are upset by the lack of Jessi Spano in that video.
Oh Videogum. I missed you.
I’m so glad you’re back. I didn’t know what to think of the last episode of Treme.
It was too loud for his ear horn!
Whoa, room 23 here.
Yay, Gabe’s back. Good thing too, I was starting to have…. withdrawal symptoms….
This is me at my desk. (Except I am a lady.)
but you are wearing a green suit, right? I mean, it is spring.
Look how devoted you are to your work. I mean you don’t even let go of your suitcase before you yawn/get excited.
“Never. Let. Go.” – the motivational post-it note in your cubicle
Motivational Poster meme
That pixelated video made me sick. Although I did vomit up Swatches and Crystal Pepsi, so totally rad.
I am so impressed by this video! I just love how everything morphed into each other. This is cutting edge technology you guys. James Cameron can suck it.
On another note, I’m so happy everything is back to normal! These four days felt longgggggggg.
OH THANK ASS HE’S BACK!
Ass Dan?
Ohh, yes. All praise to Ass Dan!
How can we not be rad, when wearing such awesome (to the maxxx!) outfits!!
The chat function was pretty awesome while you were gone Gabe, it was monster central up in there. We still had ta get through the working day somehow, but we did so LIKE A FAMILY.
HIT ME ON THE HIP, amirite?
SPIDER, THIS IS FALCON, amirite?
“You wanna BONE DOWN?!”
This website is awesome! I can’t believe I found out about it!
Welcome home, Gabe!
Paradoxically, I started developing a secondary Steve Winwood-esque personality to keep myself sane.
… I blame the fact that someone mentioned Merton the other week.
Was it Eddie Money? You could have had Chuck E! Cheese as your avatar.
JESUS, This Video, I mean, it is 4-20 and all, but I gotta take some mushrooms or smoke or something first, Damn.
I think I ruined this meme.
Don’t get me wrong that was a good try and your heart was in the right place.
But i gotta correct you at least once DAMN!
i don’t think i’m ever going to understand what a meme is. and the wikipedia article def did not help.
Did that dude just dunk on Godzilla? …daaaaammmn!
I think he’s going to need a bigger shark bag.
That’s no dude, that’s SNL host Charles Barkley! You should see his ups against Mothra.
damn mothra you just got schooled
Now just imagine I have photo shop skills and I pasted Gabe’s head on Mr. Kotter and my face on Travolta’s.
Animal Chin!!!
Welcome back Gabe. I can’t wait for the puppy recap.
Oh shit! I forgot to see Kick-Ass. What’s the late homework policy again?
You lose one full letter grade for every day you’re late.
did you mean to say animal charm?
No he did not.

I had to actually do work for the past few days. The sine wave of my work pattern may now be called into question, but at least my LOLk portfolio will be getting fatter.
Seriously. Now that they know I’m capable of this much work, they might start expecting it all the time! Here’s to keeping low expectations and just barely surpassing them!
I remember the first time I heard the word “radical” was in the movie Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure when Pee-Wee turned on the turbo booster of his (radical) bike and jumped a house. He landed in the middle of a BMX club (or something; how do they work?) and the youngest kid in the group says it. After the flick, I asked my dad to remind me of the word the kid used because it was so “awesome.”
how does charles barkley not have his own tv show
If loving that song is wrong. I don’t ever wanna be right.
You’re gonna hear that song nonstop this summer. It’s gonna be the summer of Tanlines. The band, not the lines. Well maybe the lines too.
I seriously need to get my hands on this track.
Oh hey look, it’s on these here servers:

Oh my god, you are now my VG hero!! This is so awesome.
Gabe we missed you, but YOU missed some epic Monster love.
Also I watched too much of The Pick Up Artist.
I fully expected to mock this video mercilessly but then I realized that it was actually kind of beautiful.
You should check out Chairlift’s Evident Utensil video! It’s like drugs for people who don’t do drugs but want to pretend that they have some sort of knowledge of what it’s like to be on drugs because they’re insecure.
