Rain shows up at the studio for an after hours dance-off with Stephen. Colbert says, “Hey Rain, let me know when Korea lifts the embargo on balls.”

Stephen Colbert is the newest Korean sensation. Rain got nothing on him.

Lyrics for Stephen Colbert’s new Korean song

You know you’re my girl
So get into my Hyundai
You know you’re my girl
We can eat some Kim Chi

We can get together
Like Haweye
And Hot Lips
He’s singin’ in Korean
He’s singin’ in Korean
He’s singin’ in Korean
He’s singin’… in Korean

And then
we’ll do something else
What else is Korean

He’s singin’ in Korean
He’s singin’ in Korean
He’s singin’ in Korean
He’s singin’… in Korean

Stephen Colbert bust out some Korean dance moves. It’s very hilarious.

Colbert sucks up to North Korean dictator Kim Jong il

Mr. Dew — Tue, 17 Oct 2006 02:28:00 +0000

In order to lessen a chance for a nuclear attack on United States – or rather Stephen Colbert himself – Colbert tries to be nice to Kim Jong il. I’m sure Kim would be most pleased.

gaydar//gay

Mr. Dew — Fri, 15 Sep 2006 01:52:31 +0000

Stephen Colbert did an interview with David Eliot, the inventor of a device called “GayDar”. GayDar is a device where gays and lesbians can hold and when they are near to each other, GayDar vibrates happily.

And just when you think that only a gay would invent such a gay invention, David Eliot denies himself being one. So is he just trying to make the world of gay gay better? You’ll see.

The volume of the video is too soft but you can move your speakers to your ears like I did.

Having watched that, I am pretty sure he is gay.

islam//christianity

Mr. Dew — Wed, 06 Sep 2006 08:56:23 +0000

Steve Carell and Steven Colbert fights it out – Islam V.S. Christianity, which is right. Carell thinks its Islam because Allah says so and Colbert thinks Christianity is right ’cause the bible says so. Neither party wins. Just one loser – John Stewart. Watch this with an open mind, okay?

Mr. Dew — Sun, 03 Sep 2006 14:47:00 +0000

George Bush choice of words are amazing. He speaks a lot and half the time he used wrong words. Stephen Colbert shows you how George Bush’s words actually speak louder than his actions.

*Nine Planets No More*

[Direct link]

Yeah now we have 12. How cool is that? If you once taught your kids that there’re 9 planets, it’d be quite hard to explain why it turned to 12. All of a sudden, it seemed that science can be defined by anyone.

But I think it’s great that the numbers change. Yes, we used to have 9 planets, now we have 12. It acts as a reminder that science is constantly evolving. We can be right today and wrong tomorrow. I think it’s a good thing in general.

Mr. Dew — Mon, 21 Aug 2006 16:53:03 +0000

This video is in response to AOL’s quiet and sudden disclosure of the searches a fraction of their users had performed. Searches about shemales, sex with animals, illegal drugs and how-to-murder searches have been found in the database.

[Direct link]

Well, it’s just a joke.

But you know, he is quite right about passwords. Most people are using passwords that are easy to guess such as ‘password’ and birthdates. If you have no idea what. Oh yeah, and the Golden Palace bit.

I don’t think the defragment part is right though. It’s senseless, defragmentation doesn’t really increase security – at least I don’t see how. Please tell me how it can help if you do know.

About the searches on the internet, an average user shouldn’t worry. But if you’re searching for unsual things that the government need not know about, I suggest you do it with an anonymous proxy. If you don’t know what that is, then don’t abuse the power of search engines to aid in finding animal sex pictures for example.

America is watching. Be careful on what you search. Now I have to put ‘I AM NOT MR. DEW’ in every first search I perform.

[On a side note: You can watch the first episode of The Colbert Report on YouTube. It's 21 minutes.]

Just like my previous post, Stephen Colbert tries to talk himself through. Quite convincing actually. Now I start to not trust Wikipedia that much. I guess it’s a double edge sword – you will have more people contributing your articles, you will also made it easier to put false information into them.

Wikipedia can still be trusted I feel, but don’t quote it that blindly. Always go to the actual source if there is one to verify how true it is. But of course, for normal geography schoolwork, you can always follow blindly. Your geography teacher knows nuts about what you write in your homework. You just need to make it sound convincing. The elephant population has increased in Africa, not because it really did increase, just because some menace is behind his computer typing nonsense into a user-contributed encyclopedia.

Well, this is not exactly a very Singapore thing, but I still love watching this video. In fact I watched it 3 times.

It’s a YouTube video of Stephen Colbert defending his interview with Congressman Wexler when Wexler was made to say why he likes cocainne. If we had Colbert here in Singapore, you can safely bet I’ll watch the news on morning. Two person conversing while reporting news is just so old. Come on, add more humor, more shock.

Pwned.
