Update: Having an issue with the video size. Just click the videos to enlarge.  

I remember Newgrounds.com in the days after 9/11. Tributes to the fallen started to consume the portal shortly after both of the towers fell. Some of the tributes were sad tear jerkers, others were fist-pumping call-to-arms against the terrorists. However, almost all of the tributes were the worst works art anybody has ever created, seemingly created by drunk 2-year-olds who have just opened Flash for the first tim

I might be sick, but I thought the horribleness of the tributes made them in some small way hilarious. And it's the same for the recent tributes to Heath Ledger. Now everyone knows how to edit video. Here's a few I found while searching the YouTubes today. If you have any others that are worthy of ridicule, post them in the comments.  

1. Heath Ledger Tribute - I can't believe some dude actually added lyrics to this song. Most generic -- You give me the wings to fly / you are the clear blue sky? Lazy.

2.  Three Douche Bags Visit Keith's Condo

3. Heath Ledger Tribute Song - This is just retarded. I really don't know whym I'm posting it. I think I want the guy's sweater.

4. Heath Ledger Is Dead: The Tribute - This is the best Heath Ledger Tribute ever. It's like Depeche Mode, but not anything close to Depeche Mode.

LiquidGeneration's beloved Uncircumcised Pre-Operative Transsexual just updated his blog over at Helga's Mail Room. If you like hate speech and other complaint-filled writing than you'll love Helga. This week he wrote about his problems with Australia:

I am Helga Mohammed el-Salami, Liquid Generation’s anti-depressive uncircumcised, pre-operative transsexual and I want you to take a moment and consider Australia. It is a cruel and inhospitable place. When Freud was writing about nature rising up cruel, majestic and inexorable he was surely thinking of the outback. Only he was writing in defense of civilization. It’s too bad Australia doesn’t really have one. The story of its founding is a tale of woe and starvation and extermination. It should not surprise anyone that Australia is thoroughly hated by the world. Its origins are the dregs of British society (where even the creme is fraught with problems) and rotten roots ALWAYS yield rotten fruits. So without further adieu, here are the top 10 things I hate about Australia....

 And as always, there were the usual letters of hate from our visitors. Enjoy, bitches.

We just want to remind ya'll that you can get a dose of our animations and videos on your iPod (iPhone, Nano, or whatever) by subscribing to our LG Video Podcast. We update it almost every week, or whenever we have something awesome to share with you.

You can subscribe to the podcast using iTunes by clicking here, or just go to our video blog to learn more about other ways to subscribe.

Now why would you want to watch LiquidGeneration videos on your iPod? 

The answer is simple. The toilet. Have you ever tried to use your laptop on the toilet? It sux. It just doesn't work. You wipe your ass, then touch your laptop and...ya know. Disgusting. You can use the iPod or iPhone with one hand and watch our toons with ease. Tho if you laugh you might drop your iPod in toilet. It's a trade off, really. Disgusting, soiled laptop or wet, urine-soaked iPod? I'd take the iPod any day of the week.

I also like to watch video podcasts while using public transportation. Nothing says "I am a hip part of the iPod generation" like whipping out your iPod and watching Britney Spears act like a complete coke whore in public. You look cool while watching something cool A win win! And plus, why stare at the scary people on the bus or subway, when you can watch this nightmare!

So enjoy our LG Video Podcast! If you have anything you want to see on it, let us know. We like to post things from our archvies.

Laters.  

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I have a very special announcement for you folks who love what we're doing here at LG. If you're a long time fan of LiquidGeneration you might already know a few of the people who have brought you the funny over the years. There's me, Slippy Jenkins. Monkey does a little here and there. Our beloved pre-operative transsexual Helga Mohammed el-Salami is a wonderful Chief Technology Officer that loves to berate people with his writings. There's Elmo (who has recently left us!) and an amazing group of peeps who work behind the scenes, many of whom can be found hanging out on the LG Art Blog.

But something has been missing lately. We need a new person to be the face of LiquidGeneration, a mascot so to speak for all the cool things we make every week. This person will be your guide and welcoming committee for everything in our little corner of the internet. In fact, we're even going to change our logo to be a mirror image of this person.

Everybody, please welcome Corey Worthington to the LiquidGeneration family (photo above). Corey hails from Melbourne, Australia. He's best known for throwing a party that went horribly out of control and destroyed a peaceful neighborhood. Watch the video. He also wears cool, famous sunglasses, which I will be picking up as soon as I'm done writing this blog post. If you have no idea what I'm talking about, check out this video. Like now.

This is great news for LiquidGeneration. Corey is a great, funny and totally awesome. He'll be a great spokesman for our website. Why? Let's break it down.

Corey Worthington has:

*Nipple Rings

*Famous yellow sunglasses that he won't take off

*a hat that looks like somebody spilled a box of Trix Cereal all over it! Nice! 

Corey Worthington doesn't: 

*respect authority. Which is great! We don't respect celebrities!

*speak in an American accent!

These are all the thing's we've been looking for in a new LG spokesperson, especially the nipple rings and famous yellow sunglasses thing. Those are hard to pull off effectively. 

Let me just say that I'm very excited about this new venture we're embarking on, and I hope you'll welcome Corey with the same warmth and trust that you've given to the rest of us here at LG over the years.

Corey is currently preparing to come to the US right now. Provided he clears customs, he should arrive on the job within the week.  

Awesometown.

From left to right: Shaggy, NattyRed, Labamba and Monkey. These are some of the people who bring the funny every week on LiquidGeneration.
