In effect!

Truly awesome.

And for those of you who do not remember the opening sequence of Magnum like I do...

Really, there's no reason to have an Internet anymore. It's over now.

As Adam noted in the comments...

Dear amazing person who made this video,

We can all go home now. You have won.

Love,
Me

I'm sorry, but what the frak is a "Ham Certificate"? Is it printed on Ham? I'm now tempted to run a slice of ham through my inkjet printer.

Honestly, I wish I could say that this was something I created. However, this is what the real Office Depot home page looked like today.

PIZZA UPDATE

Apparently, ham certificates are only one of the fine food items you can purchase at Office Depot. They also offer Pizza.

The Ham Page

Oh, and in case you're interested... Here's the Ham Certificate product page too.

Mmmm. Office ham...

It looks cute and tasty, right? But something tells you it is oh so wrong. Something you can't quite put your finger on.

Ok, so.... what the hell is this?

It's deep in our subconscious... Somewhere in the past, someone fed our ancestors these horrid things. I've just discovered the reason why we fear shredded wheat.

And this? Really?

Please, God. Make the natural organization stop! There must be another way!!

No... There is no other way.

Oh, come on... Recipe 62???!! And what the hell is that white stuff on top?

The horror!!!!

From the "Holy Crap!" file...

"The fisherman was inside the park when he went looking for sugar-apples. The area was forbidden for people to enter as there are a lot of wild dragons," Harum said.

P.S. No stop animation involved in this one.

Mmmm. Coffee! No, wait. Food Coffee?

Delicious and palatable when boiled for 15 minutes after boiling commences, to extract flavor from grains...

Maxwell House this is not.

So, running a site like Awesome Mustache means that the Mustachioed wonders of the world flock to my inbox. Sometimes, I get wild out of the blue emails like the Mystery Stache. Sometimes, it's something more organized like the IZEA Blog Mustache Contest:

I just wanted to bring your attention to our current mustache contest. Some of the guys in the office have spent the past few weeks growing their best 'stache and now we've opened it up to the viewing public to vote for their favorite.

It is $1 to vote and all funds raised will go to the winner's charity of choice. We would love it if you could please check it out and let your readers know.

Thanks!

This is a little like the Beard Off episode on Flapjack...

Which brings up another point... What's with all the weird beard shaving videos on YouTube?

Waaaa? That friggin video is 5 minutes long!

Back to the Staches

Anyway, I've got my money on Zappa, but Streetbegger comes in second.

[Thanks, Carri! (I think) ]
