Stephen J. Hater: Your Gay Divorce Lawyer

Are you gay? Are you getting a divorce from your same-sex partner? Then get Stephen J. Hater (Rob Corddry from What Happens in Vegas and The Daily Show), the only lawyer you'll need for your gay divorce. Not that he is gay. Nope, he's straight. But that's not important. What's important is the fact that he is a lawyer (2:27).

Hillary Clinton Is Norma Desmond

If you haven't seen the classic 1950 film Sunset Blvd., then have a look at the famous last scene in the video below before watching this. The original features Gloria Swanson as Norma Desmond, a washed-up movie star who is overcome by her delusions of a return to stardom. You can take the analogy from there (2:04).

Gravel's Got a Crush on Obama ... Girl

Now that he's ditched the Democratic Party, Sen. Mike Gravel has decided to chase after Obama's No.1 YouTube supporter in his spare time. I guess if you can't be president, you might as well become publicity-stunt-monger in chief (2:09).

American Soldiers Return Home to Squalor

This video is a photo exploration of the terrible living conditions soldiers who recently returned from Afghanistan deal with at Fort Bragg. It's pretty shocking how disgusting and vile the barracks are. An outraged father of one of the soldiers in Charlie Company took some photos to show the disastrous conditions they're in after dangerous tours of duty. He's uploaded this video to try to draw attention to the matter of how American troops get treated back home (9:57).

Inside the Viralcom Studio

Is the Internet video community ready for something more provocative than "Dad Kicked in Balls"? Personally, we aren't, but this episode features everyone from the viral video studio looking for something new. Auditions are nailed, 10-page scripts are reviewed, and pudding wrestlers part ways. It doesn't get any more viral than this, unless someone takes a fastball to the nuts (5:10).

Office Air Horn

Having to hear from your co-workers can be pretty annoying sometimes. Here's a great product idea: the Office Air Horn. OK, so it's just a regular air horn, and it just happens to be in an office. It's still pretty useful if you don't want to hear any unsolicited babble about proper conduct in the workplace, denial of vacation time, or requests from the boss to stay late (1:49).
