It’s our second weekly round-up of cool videos from all over the Interweb. Again, we came across way too many short films, ads, music videos and animations to do them all justice, so have instead chosen only the most timely and tasty to be featured in Listicles’ Thursday’s 3 Cool Videos. Enjoy!

George Washington (by Cox and Combes of Creased Comics, audio NSFW)

As you may recall, Monday was Presidents’ Day, and this hilarious educational video about the first Prez (whose birthday is actually February 22) was a big hit.

Halston Fashion Week Ad

This week is Fall Fashion Week in New York, but because of the Great New Depression several big names were no-shows on the runways. Halston dealt with this belt-tightening creatively though, getting Ernest Hemmingway’s great granddaughter Dree Hemmingway to star in this ad that substitutes New York’s sidewalks for glitzy runways (which, until reverse gentrification accelerates, is pretty accurate).
