  1. GIFs with the captions switched

    We noticed this technique on the slick original GIF blog GIF Movie. So we copied it! Because this should be a whole new genre.

  2. On Inauguration Day, all presidents will be required to publicly apologize to the French people for being cisgendered (if they are cisgendered). They will have to apologize in French.

  3. Zazzle Romney Obama shirts

    Zazzle decides what to promote on Election Day

    “Steve, what day did you send out the election-related merchandise email newsletter?”

    “Oh, months ago! Back when it made any sense for someone to buy a design that would be rendered obsolete tomorrow! Sorry just a sec I need to go write a… thing.”

    One frantic email design session later… »

    Obama and Romney sing “I Want Candy”

    This is either a commentary on the entitled nature of the President and his challenger, or a silly pun on the name of debate moderator Candy Crowley.

  5. William Tepley - Take the R train

    “Take the R Train”: This hateful song is my fall jam

    Watch this homophobic one-man music video that says Barack Obama is gay and promotes Mitt Romney with an extended train metaphor! It’s available in high-res 1080p because quality.

    This is the 273rd video by William Tapley, “also known as the Third Eagle of the Apocalypse, and the Co-Prophet of the End Times.” I sincerely hope this man has children and grandchildren that are, like, normal people, and that they’re fully aware of Dad’s hobby. And that Dad believes his arthritis is a punishment from God.

    Watch Tapley sing about Barack Obama over some pretty decent karaoke B-roll. »

    Nathan Barnatt’s new dance video is goofy as ever, features an Obama mask

    I hope you’re familiar with Nathan Barnatt. He enjoys dancing and classic video games. We’ve posted about him a few times on the Slacktory Tumblr; his dance videos are so fun and well-edited they make me want to learn two things: how to dance and how to edit video.

    His new video, released yesterday – National Voter Registration Day – seems passively pro-Obama (he’s wearing an Obama mask). But that’s not what matters. What matters is that Nathan Barnatt made another silly dancing video and that you get to watch it.

    Watch Nathanbama do his dance. »

    Barack Obama Grants Interviews to Other Websites

    Buoyed by the success of yesterday’s visit to Reddit, President Obama decides to reach out to other communities on the internet.

    4chan: “Hi, I’m the President” becomes the latest meme, with thousands of users posting the phrase in the hours after Obama’s visit. Annoyed, Anonymous uses the EXIF data in Obama’s verification photo to track down his location to “somewhere on Pennsylvania Avenue”.

    Buzzfeed: Interview goes well until an editor steps in and begins ranking POTUS’ answers while he’s still giving them.

    Tumblr: The President writes a stunning 5,000 word takedown/indictment of the American political system, and pledges to legalize marijuana, allow gay marriage, and cease drone killings. He doesn’t include any cool gifs, however, so the post is ignored in favor of a photoshop of Obama as Gus Fring from Breaking Bad.

    See how Metafilter, Twitter, and Daring Fireball treat the President. »
