OLD SPICE ODOR BLOCKER BODY WASH IS SO POWERFUL IT SELLS ITSELF IN OTHER PEOPLES VIGILS!

Po-po-po-po-po-po-Power!

[–]IgorTheAwesome 14 points15 points ago

Interesting... but highly disturbing.

[–]LeonHayland 10 points11 points ago

WHY CAN'T I STOP WATCHING THIS ._ .'

[–]HetfieldJ 0 points1 point ago

She looks like Robin. I wonder why it isnt Metro news one.

[–]rtropins 1 point2 points ago

That's Liz Cho, ABC 7 Eyewitness news!

[–]HouseBreaker -1 points0 points ago

Look up "Old Spice YTPMV" on YouTube.

You can thank me later.

[–]bootnuts -1 points0 points ago

Tim and Eric got Tim and Ericked

[–]normalboy 2 points3 points ago

There's a whole bunch of these on youtube. I wish they were made into actual commercials.

These three definitely rank up there with Super Spice 64:

Time to Bodywash

Astral Aroma

Muscle Beach

Actually, I'm just gonna go ahead and recommend anything by user Mowtendoo or pretty much any of the related videos for any of his videos. This is definitely one of my favorite "things" on the internet, I dunno what you'd call it, it's like youtube poop taken to a whole other level imho.

why the fuck did I just watch that twice?

Wrong Guy retard

[–]kiltedmandalorian 132 points133 points ago

Somebody should break the news to Terry Crews.

[–]BreakfastBurrito 128 points129 points ago

DON'T YOU PUT THAT

O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD SPICE BODY WASH

ON ME, RICKY BOBBY

[–]SatchmoPhipps 2 points3 points ago

So is everyone saying that Michael Clarke Duncan's spirit went into Terry Crews?

Awesome...

[–]kevlo 2 points3 points ago

As sad as I am, I could live with that.

[–]NilesLaw 8 points9 points ago

Stoned Jeff Daniels.

[–]NBegovich 3 points4 points ago

[Sex in the City metareference]

[–]Whoopah 4 points5 points ago

That's an easy way of doing comedy. Don't bother with coming up with a joke, this is much more direct.

[–]NBegovich 2 points3 points ago

It's my favorite way to make people's lips twitch in a sad shadow of a smile before upvoting me and forgetting my comment forever.

By the way, if you did enjoy The Newsroom and you liked the commentary it provides about journalism, please look up the podcast called Common Sense With Dan Carlin. Carlin talks about this stuff all the time, and he's very informative.

[–]DutchPrisoner -5 points-4 points ago

Easy to get them confused -- they are both so well spoken.

Edit: Joking...

[–]theabacus 24 points25 points ago

Producer to intern

Find a picture of that big black guy who just died.

[–]ambear316 14 points15 points ago

They should just stop trying at this point.

[–]ChappyWagon 9 points10 points ago

At least there's a REASON for Seal's picture to be there, haha. He was in the news that day as well and they mixed up the pictures. Terry Crews is just unrelated, like someone went "Holy shit, the president from Idiocracy died. Google 'president from Idiocracy' and use the first image you see!"

Regardless, they blew it.

[–]cmilla 2 points3 points ago

Seriously, where do these people find these pictures? How do you accidentally find a picture of Seal when you type in Michael Clark Duncan?

It's almost like they happened to have pictures of random black celebrities on their PC and thought "Oh I got a good pic of him already."

[–]kilowatt757 63 points64 points ago

[–]burentu 15 points16 points ago

What coincidence, when i said to my brother that Philip Duncan died, he said: Isn't that the guy from Pulp Fiction?

[–]chewp911 8 points9 points ago

Philip?

[–]mainsworth 21 points22 points ago

Yeah, that's Phillip Seymour-Duncan.

[–]burentu 15 points16 points ago

I'm sorry.. I have no idea why i wrote Philip

[–]Gs305 5 points6 points ago

You're thinking of Phillip Seymour Hoffman.

Edit: I see mainsworth kinda cleared that up for you.

[–]MattPH1218 4 points5 points ago

Isn't that Kate Winslett in Titanic?

No honey, its Philip Seymour Hoffman

[–]bitch_im_a_lion 0 points1 point ago

Happy cake day.

[–]munge_me_not 7 points8 points ago

Does Michael Clarke Duncan look like a bitch!

[–]rockpoodle 3 points4 points ago

No, he looks a lot more gaunt though.

[–]Zakk_Sabbath 13 points14 points ago

Liz Cho is so hot I would drink her fucking bath water

[–]FireReadyAim 7 points8 points ago

Why is her hair so big?

[–]lilsassprincess 30 points31 points ago

It's full of secrets.

[–]Zakk_Sabbath 2 points3 points ago

I asked my mother the same question in reference to a Motley Crue video I saw as a kid. The answer I received: "The bigger the hair, the closer to God."

[–]Lizardizzle 5 points6 points ago

That is fucking stupid.

[–]Zakk_Sabbath 1 point2 points ago

Insulting my mother, fucking classy guy you are

[–]church_of_robot 4 points5 points ago

This is no joke.

[–]CatfishRadiator 3 points4 points ago

I have a fun game for you to play, buddy. It's called porn star or anchorwoman?

[–]mcl523 1 point2 points ago

I keep losing

[–]Zakk_Sabbath 1 point2 points ago

Haha this is awesome, thanks

[–]Zmodem 25 points26 points ago

First comment: "RIP Michael Clarke Duncan... I will never forget the part when you threw the detonator out of the boat in Batman.".

Legitimately laughed aloud. Thank you!

[–]scgoodolboy 2 points3 points ago

Nice. Thanks for posting. This will be fun.

[–]miss-sawa 22 points23 points ago

Black people all look the same, no one will notice.

Told you yesterday already!

[–]iBeatStuffUp 2 points3 points ago

yeah isn't that a picture of terry tate?

[–]Mr_Sorter 2 points3 points ago

Will Smith, bro.

[–]mydogwatchesmejerkit 1 point2 points ago

[–]loumerloni 0 points1 point ago

Cuba Gooding Jr.

[–]SlayerFan1993 0 points1 point ago

Would you happen to be a Misawa fan?

[–]miss-sawa 0 points1 point ago

doesn't ring any bells. I used to be a Slayer-fan a few years ago though.

[–]SlayerFan1993 0 points1 point ago

Oh. I just saw your username and I thought you might've been into Japanese Wrestling (Mitsuharu Misawa).

[–]tizzey 24 points25 points ago

Why is there a picture of Bill Cosby?

[–]boltsteve 18 points19 points ago

Fake! Here's the original.

[–]Sharkl11 8 points9 points ago

Salma Hayek with a wig and nose job?

[–]Piemonkey 3 points4 points ago

How does this sort of thing even happen? What's wrong with using a simple Google Image Search or getting the picture off Wikipedia or IMDB? There's so many resources for getting the right person's picture or video clips that there's no reason at all that mistakes like this should keep happening on a regular basis.

[–]Nedhudir 0 points1 point ago

Pretty sure it's fake.

[–]billraydrums 3 points4 points ago

President Camacho?

[–]dr_derp627 3 points4 points ago

This looks shopped

[–]bozobucketeer 3 points4 points ago

Not going to lie, took me awhile to figure out what was wrong?

[–]wartortleguy 0 points1 point ago

Same for me

[–]RacistUncleTed -1 points0 points ago

An understandable mistake, black people all look about the same.

[–]brutalbronco 3 points4 points ago

WHAT DOES MICHEAL CLARKE DUNCAN LOOK LIKE?

[–]goletaal 3 points4 points ago

WTF? ABC News local ABC affiliate station

[–]cajunbander 2 points3 points ago

Thank you. That's not ABC News. Also it's Photoshopped so it doesn't matter anyway.

[–]goletaal 0 points1 point ago

Based on the text, I'd say it's more of an MS Paint job.

[–]tjstumbles 2 points3 points ago

Good night sweet prince

That's just a local ABC affiliate, not ABC News.

[–]Rinx7 1 point2 points ago

Yup, Channel 7 Action News Detroit, also this is photoshopped.

[–]Nuggetry 1 point2 points ago

I guess he died trying to protect Will McAvoy

[–]justbizun 0 points1 point ago

That's dollar twenty worth of air time!

[–]keetone 1 point2 points ago

...because we all look the same to you.

[–]Deacon 0 points1 point ago

All news anchors? I agree.

[–]0Fab 0 points1 point ago

I'm sure everyone was paying attention to the hot news anchor and not the picture.

[–]TheCarsHissByMyWindo -1 points0 points ago

You should feel bad for trying to pass that pixelated swamp you call a photo.

[–]MineDogger 0 points1 point ago

Why are they using a picture of Will Smith?

[–]smooth80 0 points1 point ago

no, that is Terry Crews from "everybody hates chris" and the Expendables 1 and 2... he also does those youtube Old Spice spoofs ...aaaabbbbbbdominals.

[–]kliks 0 points1 point ago

They all look alike, don't they?

[–]sabistory 0 points1 point ago

Because the collective IQ of all the interns at KABC is around 3.

[–]ned_krelly 0 points1 point ago

You know someone in the editing department said "Oh shit, that huge black guy died, we better get a pic".

Also, don't google "huge dead black guy"

[–]KlausJanVanWolfhaus 0 points1 point ago

I'm not racist or anything, but I legitimately believe a lot of black people look alike.

ABC's sources are 4chan... beautiful.

I'm only trying to point out that you're being just as judgmental as you seem to think republicans are. Although I do realize you may have been just trying to feed off the liberal upvote train.
