Hey guys, are you decorating your Christmas tree this year? Do you think yer ol' tree has a spot on it to hang the Gangsta Mermaid ornament? Because if not, you need to seriously rethink your entire life and all the choices you've made in it thus far.

Okay, that's extreme... but this RIDICULOUS ornament is awesome. You can't argue with me on that.

Now, I have no idea where you can buy said ornament (after trying to track it down on the Internet, I came up with a whole lotta nothing), but in that case, you need to find yourself a semi-professional scultpor, you need to print out the picture to the left and have that dude make you one. NOW. Or Christmas is in danger of being canceled. I'm serious, people!

Hurt yourself this month? Did someone film it and put it on the Internet? Then chances are, you're in this super-awesome November 2010 Fail Compilation.

Some of my favorite fails included are the girl who bites it on the rope swing, the flip-cup fail and the SUV that bites it. HARD.

While I think "not getting injured" is incentive enough to stop you from doing stupid things, now, it looks like, you've got some new motivation for being a careful, conscientious member of society -- you don't want to end up in next month's Fail Compilation. That would suck!

Have trouble keeping up with "the news"? Can't stand the shouters on cable, the fear frenzy of your local newscast, or all the tedious reading required by newspapers? Rather just watch silly videos on YouTube? Well wake up, buddy, the news is now fully available in silly YouTube video format, thanks to the geniuses at Taiwan-based Next Media Animation.

The G20, a super-important economic summit of world powers that you can read about on my About.com colleague Kimberly Amadeo's site, is currently under way in South Korea right now and there's actually some tension in the relations between the United States and China. Which is NOT hilarious at all. It's boring.

Well, it WAS boring... until those rascals at the Taiwanese website NMA World got their hands on the story and created this unbelievably goofy video, the US-Sino Currency Rap Battle.

There are sooo many choice lines in this epic rap battle, but my favorite passage is:

So what if our fiscal picture's discombobulated? / The world's resources are dollar denominated. / And we pay with IOUs, so what if you say is true / when the dollar crashes, whatcha gonna do?

Ohhhhhh!!!
