The Making of Buzz Aldrin's "Rocket Experience" with Snoop Dogg and Talib Kweli

Do you think that when Buzz Aldrin was in space all those years ago, he ever thought that 40 years later, he'd be referred to as "gangsta" in a viral video? Because I'm pretty sure the answer is no.

After the jump: The "Rocket Experience" video.

Fred Willard plays Doctor

Fred Willard appears on Funny Or Die as a doctor who prescribes liberal doses of common sense.

Michael Bay Eats a Bowl of Cereal

What, no explosions? I thought every Michael Bay movie had some sort of pyrotechnic display. It's in the contract.

Gobstopper: Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory... OF DEATH.

Holy smokes, if only this were a real movie. It's got more attitude and atmosphere than 90% of the horror flicks out there and I would LOVE to see Christopher Lloyd for 90 minutes go into full homicidal psychosis.

Alas, it's only a spoof. But a darn good one. Just imagine the potential...

Jon Hamm as Lex Luthor

Jon Hamm from Mad Men was hilarious when he appeared on Saturday Night Live. He's still hilarious as Superman arch-nemesis Lex Luthor begging for a bailout package for LexCorp.

Funny insurance video: "It Only Takes a Second"

I remember having to watch videos like this when I got hired for crap jobs in high school and college (no jokes about my current job). The ones involving the forklift were particularly awesome.

But this insurance accident video, "It Only Takes a Second," is on another level. Witness a man mercilessly crushed in some massive industrial machine. Hands are sliced. A guy eats gravel after being hit by a car. A chick has an eyepatch (?). And the best of all: EXPLODING CARS.

Because, you know, it only takes a second... for your Ford Pinto to burst into flames, leaving your charred body behind and no way to identify your corpse save for dental records. OK, maybe that's a stretch from what this video is showing, but not that much of a stretch.

The Kevin Bacon Movie Club

Do you know why people would sign up for this? One degree of separation from Kevin Bacon, that's why.

Here's why I wouldn't sign up for it: Four months ago I received my first movie from NetFlix, and it's still sitting on my kitchen counter. I still haven't watched it. I really should just send it back.

Andy Griffith and the Fonz reunion with Ron Howard

Get a glimpse at what it'd look like if the Andy Griffith Show and Happy Days kept running on air for 40, 30 years. It's hilariously scary.

Gotta hand it to Ron Howard, this video is a pretty genius way to get the elderly to vote for their candidate of choice. Matlock told me to vote for Obama!

Batman and Joker's Public Service Announcement

Cancer isn't cool

This video does two good things.

1) It features Jack McBrayer, better known for his work on "30 Rock" and in a Mariah Carey video.

2) It links to an effort to raise money for cancer research.

Public service announcements should all be this entertaining:

Space Camp Orientation

True story: When I was a kid, I really wanted to go to Space Camp. I even read the book version of the movie "Space Camp," which I bought at my school book fair. (I never saw the movie "Space Camp," oddly enough.)

Runway Hazards

I don't know if this counts as fashion roadkill, but it does seem like quite a bummer to end the show.

Here's one question I had: Why didn't anyone sitting right there next to the stage get up to help her? And another: When the other guy fell through the runway, did he fall on the woman who already fell through the runway? Because then that would truly add insult to injury.

The most surreal show on television that isn't on public access is the Cartoon Network's "Tim and Eric Awesome Show, Great Job!" You can catch the sketch comedy show well after midnight on Cartoon Network's Adult Swim.

Rapper MC Lyte reminds us that we need to put our clocks ahead one hour this Sunday.

Which brings this question to mind: What does Flavor Flav, another rapper and reality show star (best known for his work in Public Enemy and for wearing large clocks around his neck), do on this day? Just hire additional help to reset his massive collection of decorative clocks?

I'm just saying.
