Hilarious! How many times have you heard . . . "I don't have a lot of money for this, so just when you are watching TV or something you can push together some ideas."

Warning: lots of cursing.

Neither one of those were particularly funny at all.

Videos of this nature really need to have a core of believability to them, not just people rambling on about comic sans and MS word.

For instance, the redesign of the stop sign does this great: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwqPYeTSYng

I thought it was funny because it condensed so many of the typical freelance designer annoyances into 2 minutes.

Yours didn't make me laugh. Different strokes for different folks.

For people like me, whose only experience of graphic design is what I read on these forums, that video is hilarious. I love it!

That's a good video. :)

Here's (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gYEf8XZKlUU) a funny adaptation of a "Few Good Men."

Sorry if this has been posted before, but as a designer I can't believe how true this is.

Sorry to the others, but this is funny -- in large part because of the dead-pan affect of the Hawking-voice characters.

Oh, and bashing Comic Sans and "I need it in Word format" never, ever, EVER gets old. :D

No -- I'm serious -- for me, bashing Word as a format is always, always, ALWAYS funny! I may be odd that way, but it's ALWAYS funny!

There are some more under "DigitalLiverpool". Good for a laugh.

Warning: There is some profanity in the humour. Rated 14+.

Enjoy!
