It's the B-list characters -- Jefferson Twilight! Number Twenty Four! Truckules! -- that really make Venture Bros. for me. Luckily, it's apparent that the fine folks at Slacktory share my unwholesome love for these minor characters, including one of my favorites -- Brock Samson's mentor Col. Hunter Gathers. Get a look at the Hunter S. Thompson-inspired black ops bigwig's finest moments in this supercut, and stick around for a look at some of the greatest forces for evil in the history of the show with a supercut of Venture Villains.  Caution: Contains spoilers, watch at your own risk.

Today would have been Steve Jobs' 58th birthday. There's no doubt that he had a huge impact on the geek world, and he's already missed. We can't help but wonder what else Jobs and Apple could have brought into the world if he hadn't lost his battle with cancer at a relatively young age. Jobs always managed to make Apple announcements exciting in a way they really haven't been since his death, and he managed to do it with just three simple words, "One more thing." Here's every "One more thing" moment from 1999 to 2011.

Turns out the human experience can be boiled down to about two dozen cliches. It's the only explanation for why certain phrases and mannerisms keep appearing in film and television. That's assuming movies and television shows are meant to be a semi-accurate portrayal of life. For example, how often have you heard the phrase "it's a no-brainer" uttered on the big or small screen? Chances are, you've heard it a lot. Slacktory's combined a big bundle of these moments into one nice supercut. Should you watch it? Of course! It's a no-brainer.

The fictional Pawnee, Indiana, anyway. Not that there's an actual Pawnee, Indiana, but that's beside the point. The good folks over at Slacktory have composed a lovely supercut of all the drinking on Parks and Recreation. Turns out, a whole lot of people drink a whole lot of booze. Granted, this is composed from footage from the show's entire run, but it's still a significant amount.

Fanboy alert -- we're just days away from new episodes of Archer on FX and super-psyched for the return of one of the best comedies on TV right now. It seems like we're in pretty good company on that front, as the supercut mavens at Slacktory seem to have their jones on for the show as well. So much so, in fact, that they've put together a spanking new supercut of the best barbs, insults, cruel nicknames, and malapropisms traded by the characters on the show. While it's not a totally thorough rundown -- missing are real gems like "Serves you right, Smacky Brown," and "Who am I, Alan Turing? He was also in X-Men, remember?" -- it's plenty to kill a couple minutes between morning meetings and whet our appetites for new episodes and the spectacularly cruel humor that will no doubt go right along with them. Can't. Wait.

Congratulations, human race, we've survived yet another prophesied doomsday scenario and can continue on with our lives without the fear of fire raining down from the sky. There's only one way we know how to celebrate such a momentous occasion right: Crack open a can of green beans from the emergency rations stockpile, kick back, and watch a whole bunch of end of the world movies with the smug satisfaction that only comes from making an entire segment of the world's population look like a bunch of raving crackpots. For the sake of time, YouTube user Critica Daquele Filme has strung together some of the best scenes from these films in one bombastic supercut package, showcasing what could have been, but thankfully wasn't.

Supercuts might be the best kind of cuts. That's why they're super. This one has assembled together decades of characters in television and movies telling one another that there's no time to explain. Everyone from Kevin Sorbo's Hercules, to Nelson Muntz is guilty of this classic dialogue cliché. Turns out Disney is a repeat offender. We counted no less than nine instances in this minute long video pulled from Disney sources. Did we miss any?

Supercuts are perhaps one of the greatest gifts the internet has blessed mankind with. They're like if someone took the time to take all those movie scenes you tell your friends about and put them in one place for your convenience, because we all know how precious our time spent surfing the web for useless, inane crap is. Today, the palpable Liam Neeson-philes over at Slacktory have put together this loving tribute of our favorite cinematic badass without peer getting the last word no matter what, where, or even when. Don't argue with us, check out Neeson always walking away the undisputed winner for yourself.

We denizens of the internet are no stranger to the wonders of bacon. In fact, bacon proliferates across the web in a variety of ways. But perhaps none embody "internet" and "bacon" like those folks over at Epic Meal Time. They have a habit of putting bacon on their bacon only to then cover said bacon in more bacon with a little bacon grease on the side. It is known. So known, in fact, that thecussingchannel mashed together 30 episodes worth of them saying bacon into what might finally be classified as too much bacon.

I've been alone with with a "Hello" supercut, inside my mind. And in my dreams I've seen its clips a thousand times. I sometimes see it using films galore. Hello! Is it me you're looking for? This sure took a lot of guys, there must have been a lot of files. It's all I've ever wanted and my eyes are open wide because it knows just what to say, and it knows which clips to use, and I want to tell it so much: "I love that someone used a whole bunch of carefully edited and rearranged film snippets to make you."

Apparently filmmakers really love to shoot characters walking forward, their back to the audience, because YouTube user Editcadet1 has cut together several dozen in this impressive supercut. What's more, the creator also set it to the toe-tapping tune of Edwin Starr, which certainly helps its watchability. Of course, the best part of these supercuts is trying to pick out all the movies. I spotted some notable Kubrick films and a smattering of Coen Brothers pictures in there. Did your favorite flick make the cut? (via Videogum)

Throughout The Simpsons, clips from a McBain movie would occasionally appear in certain early episodes, starring everyone's favorite yellow, four-fingered Arnold Schwarzenegger parody, Rainier Wolfcastle. The first piece of the movie appeared in the second season of the show in an episode title "The Way We Was," and the movie eventually played out through various clips within other early episodes, which were tied together to create the "full" McBain movie and uploaded to Vimeo for our yellow, one-liner parody pleasure. Hats off to whoever took the time to make the video.

YouTube user TRMUS1C makes these fun videos of Seinfeld where bits of the show (mostly) taken out of context are cut together, some dramatic music is added, and a new story is hatched without having many ties to the actual episodes that contain the scenes. Above is a cut wherein Jerry the Great attempts to take over the world with his evil cohort George, until Jerry sells his partner out, which is something that would totally happen to George.

Other Seinfeld cuts can be seen on TRMUS1C's YouTube channel, which include an inspirational take on George's life, something which the character probably could've used.

The criteria of this supercut is a little difficult to put into words, but if you start watching, you'll quickly get the idea. Then again, I'm a doctor, not a thesaurus. (I am not a doctor.) (via GeekMom.)
