I know it’s Wednesday. And months since I posted a YouTube Tuesday video on Tuesday. But check dis out.

BP meets Mario
When Mario went out to fix an underwater pipe he discovered it was spilling gallons and gallons of oil. From here.
Super Mario Children
If you’ve got a mushroom outbreak at home and you want your kids to deal with the pesky blighters, or if you’ve got plumbing dramas, you should totally buy them these outfits…
He’s not the Messiah…
Just an Italian plumber featured in Nintendo games…
Though this sculpture may cause some confusion…

Super Mario Bros Crossover will waste your life
Did you grow up playing Super Mario Bros? How about the Legend of Zelda? Megaman? Did you ever imagine what life would be like if Link (from Zelda) could run around stabbing those stupid goombas with his sword?
Now you can bring Link into Mario world, and stab away. Thanks to Super Mario Bros Crossover by Exploding Rabbit.
I played with Link. Powerups upgraded his sword. Playing Mario with the Zelda theme music is also kind of cool.
Super Mario Origins
Ever wondered how Mario got his name? No? Well now you know, a real estate baron in Seattle is an undercover 8-bit plumber.
Mario A. Segale, real estate developer, was indeed the namesake of Nintendo’s Mario character, and he was indeed the landlord of Nintendo’s Tukwila, Washington warehouse in 1981 when employees of the then very small Nintendo of America named the protagonist in Donkey Kong after him. Many details beyond that still remain in the realm of speculation and will remain so unless the parties involved talk to the press in more detail (and reporters do their part by reporting it accurately).
This is what he looked like in high school.
You know this thanks to this rather detailed Technologizer article.
What to do when the plumbing industry dries up
When the bottom fell out of the plumbing industry Mario and Luigi went into hospitality.

Don’t stop Mario now
I’m not a big Queen fan – but I am a big Mario fan – so this video is right up my alley. Four levels of Mario have been cleverly overlaid to create Queen’s Don’t Stop Me Now. It seems Queen is good fodder for musically inclined geeks. This reminds me of that other thing I posted of computer peripherals playing Bohemian Rhapsody.
Super Mario Art – Stop Motion Edition
If I had eight spare hours in my day I don’t think I’d be making this. Mostly because I don’t have that variety of artistic talent and inspiration, but partly because I’d be doing other important stuff like procrastinating on reading the first six chapters of my Hebrew text book.
Wears ya bean(ie)
If you wear this beanie don’t go near any Italian plumbers. They’ll want to climb nearby piping and jump on your head. Be warned.
Penning the classics
This video is pretty clever. But I spent most of my time watching it thinking about how cool the guy’s shirt is…
Here’s a guy who takes pen rapping to a whole new level…
Super Mario Mac
Mac decals are fun. I’m not sure if I’d ever deface my beautiful computer. But this one’s a cracker.
