(This bit of silliness arrived in our inbox recently, and all we have to say is “I am unsatisfied to be killed in this way?” Thanks for sending this to us Parashar. Sometimes things just don’t translate well, do they? Enjoy!)

7. Take my advice, or I’ll spank you without pants.
8. Who gave you the nerve to get killed here?
9. Quiet or I’ll blow your throat up.

12. You daring lousy guy.
13. Beat him out of recognizable shape!
14. I have been scared too much lately.

Imagine if you will, [tag]Michael Jackson[/tag]‘s “[tag]Thriller[/tag]” as danced by 1,500 inmates from [tag]Cebu Provincial Detention and Rehabilitation Center[/tag], Cebu, Philippines. Seriously. This isn’t the final performance, mind you, just a practice run. (For a bunch of their other routines go here.) You’re going to have to see it to believe it. A hat tip to scotis_man for this one. Enjoy.

If you are like those of us in the [tag]Silliness Lair[/tag], you have been seriously amused by the American [tag]Mac Ads[/tag]. But, did you know that there are different advertisements made for many other countries? Try the UK Mac Ads (the one called “Court” is hilarious), the Japanese Mac Ads, and the French Mac Ads (American actors, dubbed in French). (a hat tip to Ray for pointing these out to us.)
