Spoof "how-to" videos

What is the website full of fake home improvement / how to videos that seem reasonable at first but are actually all spoofs / parodies with bad advice?

There was one that was something like "how to clean a spill on your carpet" where the guy in the video was telling people to just cut a square out of the carpet and flip it over...

Best answer: Infinite Solutions, but it looks like they no longer have the carpet video available. They were made by Fatal Farm.
