Facebook’s McDonalds Value Meal Challenge

Ryan Giesel, a freshman at SIU Carbondale, will attempt what we at COED feel to be the impossible: consume every value meal from McDonalds’ menu, starting with the Big Mac all the way to the Fish Fillet…all in one sitting without getting up.

If you’re keeping score at home, that is:

#1 – Big Mac, #2 – 2 Cheeseburgers, #3 – Quarter Pounder w/ cheese, #4 – Double Quarter Pounder w/ cheese, #5 – Big N’ Tasty, #6 – Double Cheeseburger, #7 – Chicken Ranch BLT Sandwich, #8 – Premium Chicken Club Sandwich, #9 – Chicken McNuggets (10 piece), #10 – Chicken Selects, #11 – Premium Chicken Classic Sandwich, #12 – Fillet-O-Fish

The fries with each value meal have to be eaten as well.

The only stipulation: 100,000 people must join his Facebook group promoting the challenge for him to get ‘er done. Over 28,000 have joined in support already; with the viral nature of the internet we expect this number to be met by weeks end.

To support Ryan’s death-wish join his group (If 100,000 people join, I’ll eat every McDonalds value meal, #1-12) and send invites to all your friends. We will keep you updated on the progress and will post the video of the challenge taking place as soon as it’s available.

Jimmy Kimmel is F***ing Ben Affleck

Continuing the never-ending saga that is their marriage, Jimmy Kimmel dispatched a diss last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live to his wifey, Sarah Silverman, after her “I’m F***ing Matt Damon” music video murked him something fierce weeks earlier.

His retort? He’s f***ing Ben Affleck.

Featuring a cast of thousands, Kimmel’s music video for “I’m F***ing Ben Affleck” (probably written by Silverman, funny enough) is straight-up ridiculous. High points include Kimmel and Affleck singing way too close for comfort and a “We Are the World” celebrity hoedown – but the greatest (and most unexpected) part happens 2:45 into the video. Watch and be dumbstruck.

Watch “I’m F***ing Ben Affleck” after the jump! Read more

Is Amanda Bynes Behind “Be Kind Rewind”?

Slashfilm recently featured a video that compared Michel Gondry’s new film Be Kind Rewind to The Amanda Show, which aired on Nickelodeon eight years ago. While the concepts are indeed similar, it’s commonplace for these kind of coincidences to happen in entertainment…right?

Is That a Guitar in Your Pocket? Why, Yes It Is!

Since the Guitar Hero franchise releases a new “update” every 6 months, and Rock Band costs more than a month’s rent, I am left with two choices: either buy Rock Band and live off Ramen for the remainder of the year, or purchase the pocket version of Guitar Hero.

Basic Fun, the company responsible for this mini marvel, worked with the creative teams at Activision and Red Octane to produce a pocket-perfect port of the mega-successful series. This portable version of the game includes songs from Guitar Hero I and II, like “Killer Queen” and “Cherry Pie.” You play by following the color-coded notes on the built-in screen and tapping each of the mock guitar’s color-coded buttons, in the correct order, on rhythm, just like the original – only, like, way smaller.

If its 3 x 7.5 inch size wasn’t small enough, the guitar neck folds down, making it small enough to fit in most pockets, hence the name.

And if you’re wondering, yes – the whammy bar is intact.

Lez Zeppelin Confuses Media, Blogs, World

Today is a good day to be a member of Lez Zeppelin, an all-female Led Zeppelin cover band.

The media was in a frenzy this morning upon seeing the “Zeppelin” name amongst others in the Bonnaroo 2008 lineup. Problem is, the Zeppelin they hoped for is not playing, unless Robert Plant doing some sort of adult alternative dad-rock thing with Alison Krauss and T-Bone Burnett is considered Led Zep. But no, truth seekers – Lez Zeppelin it is. With a Z.

The truth is, Lez Zep is just your average bar band doing C+ covers of songs you’ve heard your entire life…but with girls! I guess that’s kinda cool, but nothing to get all riled up about.

Dude Shot With Tranquilizer Dart

This guy let his friends shoot him with a large tranquilizer dart to see how long it would take before the dart took him down. Hard to act tough when your crying in pain, though.

You Share, I Share with miShare

Although sharing music is far easier than it was a decade ago, we the people aren’t satisfied yet, and continue to make the act of sharing more convenient, pesky cables be damned.

miShare hopes to help hapless travelers with a more intuitive way to share music, without the need of a computer. Skipping the middleman, the gadget allows two iPods to connect directly to the unit, allowing one ‘Pod to share playlists with the other. You set up an “On the Go” playlist with the files you want to share, press the single button on the device and presto – instant swap meet. On average, miShare transfers at 500kb a second, or 10 seconds per song.

Before all you tech geeks roll your eyes and state that the Zune has a similar feature from the get go, know that some of us out there – gasp! – like the iPod better, even with its shortcomings.

Priced at $100, miShare may be a tall order for what is essentially an iPod hack. But for those looking for a convenient way to share their entire library on the go, there’s no better alternative…unless you want a Zune. But hey, a product that looks like a digital double-dildo has its merits, right?

I Can Has Canned Cheezburger?

We did it, world: through cutting-edge technology we have invented a canned cheeseburger.

Now before you get too excited, sit back for a second and realize this is it – we have reached the limits of human creativity. There is nothing left to invent, nothing left to do.

My only gripe is the canned burger’s Kalorien intake; it’s a bit high for my tastes. I’m trying to cut back on Kohlenhydrates too, but hey – beggars can’t be choosers, right? At least it’s not like Spam. Wait…

Next stop: free universal health care!

Coming Soon: Chinese Democracy (Really!)

Axl Rose knows when it comes to releasing a record these days, it’s all about timing. So what better way to grease the hype machine than to postpone, leak, further postpone, shelve then announce the (still tentative?) release of the new Guns N’ Roses Axl N’ Company album, Chinese Democracy?

Classic Rock reports that Chinese Democracy is finished and awaiting a proper release date. Since it’s been overhyped to death (and resurrected…and back again) whichever label handles the album is sure to release it at the most bankable time (early guesses include summer 2008, holiday season 2012 or posthumously, following Axl’s death in 2019).

Bonaduce Beaten By Justice?

Did you see the fight last night? You know – the massively-hyped, televised brawl between Danny Bonaduce and Justice, the Philly DJ?

Yeah…I didn’t see it either. I didn’t even know about it until this morning.

I guess some dude named Justice fought Bonaduce; he even posted an entire blog chronicling the road leading up to the fight.

And what was the outcome, you ask? I have no idea – the only video available on YouTube looks like it was recorded over 900 feet away. For all I know it’s the wrong video altogether.

You be the judge:

“Cloverfield” Sequel Already in Talks?

After a metric-ton of viral videos and red herrings involving the plot, Cloverfield is finally in theaters today…but wait! As always in the world of J.J. Abrams, the plot thickens…

The guys over at Bloody Disgusting (SpookyDan to be more precise) talked with Cloverfield director Matt Reeves and writer Drew Goodard during the red-carpet premiere of the film last night. After a few tidbits about the movie’s creation – Goodard states that it was shot as an R-rated film then edited for a wider market (read: PG-13) – an interesting idea was candidly tossed out by Reeves regarding a Cloverfield sequel – or at least an alternate version of sorts.

It’s a dead-on video showing a drunk girl (through the eyes of a guy) at a club.

Tom Cruise Babbles on About Scientology

UPDATE: The Tom Cruise recruitment video (recruisement?) has been taken down on YouTube…but we have it from Google Video! Go to Hollywood, Interrupted for more details on the matter.

Tom Cruise – actor, father, nutjob extraordinaire – has faced much scrutiny about his beliefs, mostly for the right reason. A man who was once the top-billed actor in the world has now been reduced to a social disease, wreaking havoc whenever he opens his mouth.

Scientology’s cult-like following isn’t helped much with Cruise acting as the head spokesperson for the “religion.” His numerous statements about helping others may sound sincere…until he unleashes his infamous crazy-man cackle that screams “world domination.”

And the background music? Don’t think for a second the Mission Impossible theme is a coincidence…and not just because he starred in the movie.

But don’t take my word for it:
