Could some please tell what this crap means, where did it come from, why is it funny? I see these things all over the damned net.

From top left: "Shoop Da Woop". What?

The weird head that kills people

Weird, dead looking guy?

The weird head is Patrick Duffy. There's tonnes of YTMND videos where he flies around shooting stuff with eyelasers. I don't think there's a particular story behind it.

The owl is just a "funny" pic of a confused owl with a poorly-spelled "Oh really?" under it. Started on SA, according to Wiki.

The dead looking guy is *I think* a modified version of the mugshot of a really, really ugly sex offender called Brian Peppers. Snopes page (warning, disturbing images)

Are you just wanting to know out of personal intrest or is there another reason Mr Poe?

The other three have been adequately explained. "Shoop Da Woop" is a 4chan meme.
My Google-fu pulled up some *chan wiki named Wikichan which wrote:SHOOP DA WHOOP is a Image Macro that appeared on /b/ featuring a picture of Imperfect Cell in blackface from Dragonball Z shouting "SHOOP DA WHOOP" as a beam of blue light came from his mouth. The line, much like other image macros, comes and goes on 4chan and 7chan, possessing some Meme qualities, but still being considered somewhat forced by some users.
It's often accompanied by lines like "IMMA FIRIN MAH LAZER!"

The picture of the owl was just found one day by someone on the internet and captioned.

I had no idea where that "I'M FIRIN MAH LAZER" or "SHOOP DE WOOP" came from before this, so thank you.

...But when the hell did Patrick Duffy become the eye-laser cause of destruction?

Thanks, everyone. It seemed like everyone knew this stuff but me!

Something Awful photoshop thread. Where else?

Let's just say you're not exactly missing much. If it's unfunny and repeated often, it's probably a 4chan/SA meme that's only amusing to a few teenagers, a mentally retarded Siberian, Ein and U235.
