From Found Footage Fest: "Our new favorite man, Frank Woehrle, is back with more video greatness, and he brought along his usual bag of tricks. Green screen? Check. Wardrobe changes? Check. A scene where he looks like a giant? Check. God bless America!"

Best version of national anthem. There is no debate:

You know...for the kids!

A Mosquito. My Libido?

I'm full of hard times today

- Daniel Handler

First of all - America is the greatest, freest, fittest, smartest, prettiest, sexiest, sweetest, funniest, nicest, swankiest, toughest nation in the world. And if you don't like it - you can GET OUT.

Secondly - we have a lot of problems. there's a lot wrong with the greatest, freest, fittest, smartest, prettiest, sexiest, sweetest, funniest, nicest, swankiest, toughest nation in the world.

But one thing we do very well? Humor. And nothing is quite so funny as our own history, our own screwed up nation and a man getting kicked in the groin. That's just science.

Here are 7 hilarious patriotic videos that focus on our nation's younger days:

7)  The Whitest Kids U'Know, Jack & Oswald

My favorite part? "You have a flag! That's very nice." Some of the jokes land flat...but then the music picks up...

Radiohead - "Cuttooth"

I don't know why I feel so tongue-tied;
I don't know why I feel so skinned alive.

While not as currently popular as they were in the late 1990s/early 00s heyday, Radiohead is still one of the biggest bands in the world. They are clearly not unappreciated nor are they unknown. Yet there is still a wealth of good-to-great Radiohead material that the average listener doesn’t know about. Like many bands, Radiohead frequently releases completed songs that didn’t make the final cut of their albums as b-sides on EPs and singles. However, unlike many bands, Radiohead’s b-sides can actually be quite good. This is particularly true of the b-sides off of OK Computer and Amnesiac. Clearly, Radiohead was in peak form during this time period because many of these b-sides hold their own against the album tracks.

Today is the Day of THE PACT! As per Let's Be Friends Again instructions, go to a Dunkin Donuts location near you. Order a Captain America donut (it's a star-shaped jelly donut with sprinkles and vanilla frosting. It's not bad but...it's not good either).

Take a picture of you with your fine pastry, holding it aloft as a testament to all who came before you. It'll shine like a diabetic beacon honoring the sacrifices that brave men and women have made to ensure our freedom. The star-spangled confectionary will be a sweet note of gratitude to this great experiment we call America.

Then, after the picture thing, post it on the Twitter or Let's Be Friends Again comments or on their Facebook page. The hashtag for Twitter is #ThePact and be sure to include @LBFAinc and @neuroticmonkey.

Or you can not do any of this...but then the terrorists, communists, nazis and super scientists dedicated to an ethnically pure world will have won.

USA! USA! USA!
