Christmas has come and gone, yet we all get to keep the plethora of gifts that we received.  What was your favorite gift this year?  Mine was the Original Star Wars Trilogy DVD set. (Nothing new I know, but I’ve never owned it so I was really excited! - Thanks Kenny & Hope!) I hope all of you had an incredibly Merry Christmas, and that you enjoy  all of the time that you get to spend with your loved ones!

I take my hat of to Don’t Be That Guy Films. Their pieces hilariously mock those people that everyone knows, and no one wants to know: the “Social Retards” of life.

DBTG’s short films are, in my opinion, pure genius and I honestly wish I had come up with the idea myself. To try to describe what they have captured in their films would probably sound silly to most, and in fact you probably wouldn’t be too far off in thinking that. They are very silly, but then again most of us are silly at some point in our lives without even realizing it, now aren’t we? And lo and behold, it always seems like there is going to be someone waiting around the corner, reeling with anticipation to pounce upon us with great laughter and mockery when these moments come about.

Don’t Be That Guy’s films currently grace the pages of YouTube, Revver and Myspace, and a more interactive version of their website at www.dontbethatguy.com.

And now, to satisfy your curiosity, here’s the video that introduced me to DBTG’s genius “Things you CAN’T do when you’re NOT in a pool”:
