Funny Video of The Day: 'Fun With a Laser Pointer' (with funny video)


   What a mundane use for a laser-pointer.  For a more creative usage, see below.

Today's "Funny Video of The Day" takes an activity that's long-since been made boring and obnoxious-- screwing around with a laser pointer-- and makes it funny again.  How?  Why, by adding in a raving, lunatic, crackhead who's out wandering the streets at night, that's how.  Read on for the bizarre, hilarious video, my gentle Examiner readers...

There are a bajillion (seriously: we counted) videos online of people using a laser-pointer to disrupt their cat's otherwise boring lives.  Then there's the idiots that bring laser-pointers to the movies with them and use them to helpfully point out things like breasts, eyeballs, and random objects on the screen while you're trying to enjoy "Delgo" (always when we're watching "Delgo", which is often). 

Then there's these guys (whose video features some naughty language and what you might call an adult situation; there's dark-humor afoot here, folks):

Whether or not that's an actual "crackhead" in the video is entirely up for debate-- we think it could just be a random drunk person storming around a city street at nighttime, which isn't outside the realm of possibility-- but what's not up for debate is this: if you can genuinely cause one person to run straight into a telephone pole, "Looney Tunes"-style, you, sir, have just earned yourself the classification of "Funny Video of The Day" (assuming you caught it on film, of course).   We'd also like to point out-- to any impressionable Examiner readers-- that this is just one more reason that you should never use drugs.

Stay tuned for more funny videos, news, reviews, interviews, and shenanigans from the Comedy Examiner as the week goes on, my friends.  As always, if you have a funny video or news story you'd like to see included on the Examiner's pages, feel free to contact the Comedy Examiner at your leisure.  And, in the meantime, check out some of these other recent articles from the Comedy Examiner's Office:

    I can't figure out who is more of a retarded loser the homeless guy or the douchebags who were running the laser and acting like a group of teen boys seeing thier first set of boobs.

    That's just sad. The guy knows he's being watched and he's playing along hoping someone will reward him with some money. Or crack.

  • Mike R. 2 years ago

    Seems like he's on something besides crack. I LOLd when he ran into the pole. This is why crack is wack. Highlarious.

    Ok, this may sound a littel crude, but in my neighborhood approx a 1/4 mile away is a large black community. So as I sat on my porch conducting a little experiment. Would the white Children chase the red lite as much as the Black Children? The numbers worked out to almost 5/1 with the Black chasing the light. The white kids just guest it was a toy, the black kids thought it was a ghost..Some of the Black kids did figure it out, (Ironically it was the young girls who did figure out more so then the boys but very few.) Keep in mind I did this for 5 years in a Row and I got the same results just about every year??? Go Figure?
