Now, I’m a big fan when it comes to all things Super Mario (save for that God awful Mario & Sonic at the Olympic Games and unnecessary sequel garbage); if I so much as see the names “Mario” and/or “Luigi” appear anywhere on the street I start to get all giddy inside with a stupid grin appearing on my face – and passerby thinking I’m clinically insane. That’s why I couldn’t help but post this video of Tatiana Volosozhar’s and Maxim Trankov’s Mario-inspired performance from the 2011 World Championships in Moscow. Granted, this performance isn’t really anything special, but you can’t go wrong with a hot Russian blonde doing amazing splits and other crazy moves on the ice! Come on, paisanos, watch Tatiana bust some serious moves for yourself!

Elder fraternity members are always scouting the next available crop of pledges, seeking to rebuild and refresh their organization with the top recruits on campus. What if instead of a wide-eyed teenager, wandering in circles looking for his freshmen orientation that ended 30 minutes ago, you could pick from a stable of noble superheroes, mysterious villains, and cartoony pranksters? We’re talking about creating an entire frat out of iconic video game characters, building the wildest pack of party animals ever assembled! Read on to see COED’s list of six video game characters to have in your frat!

Back in December, the Brothers Mario took back the Mushroom Kingdom from the crime lord Bowser and his Koopa Troop. Now, the brothers have some monkeys on their backs – quite literally! The Kong crime family, led by Donkey Kong, are moving in on the koopas’ turf, leaving a reluctant Bowser with only one option – getting help from the Brothers Mario. The monkey sh*t hits the fan after Mario kills Donkey’s nephew Diddy, driving everyone bananas (I swear, I’ll stop with the simian-related humor). Non-gaming folk might get a few laughs from this, but if you’re a Nintendo geek like me, you’re going to get giddy over the references to the game series and The Super Mario Bros. Super Show! This is a video you can’t miss!

Tats are tricky; some chicks really dig ‘em, especially those with “tattoobs” or “sleeves“. But more times than not, body art can make us wonder WTF we were thinking when we got that unicorn inkjob. But, what about paying homage to something as timeless as the Super Mario Brothers? Cool or foolish? Check out this funny photo gallery of Mario Brothers themed tattoos and judge for yourself.
