Considering her horribly awkward introduction to Twitter, we feel like this video is a fairly accurate guess at what would happen if Oprah tried to dominate YouTube.
Forget 'Les Mis,' this is the people's song. Al Roker's admission that he unleashed a brown torrent of filth into his Jockeys at the White House has been autotuned and turned into a song. "Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of nauseous men? It is the music of a people who will not eat Indian buffet agaaaaain!!!" *Much*
'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' made its return to television last night for the first of four 'Holladay' specials that will air every Sunday this month. Last night we saw how the Thompson family does Halloween, and delved into Mama June's fear of mayonnaise. We still have Thanksgiving and Christmas to look forward to, plus a clip show.
You might think that children are the only people capable of being delighted to the point of preciousness at the sight of a new puppy, but you would be wrong. Look at this manly dad, for example. He bangs on a car, covers his face with adorable fists, and does a little dance
Anybody who thinks Reddit is just for misogyny and creepy porn is only PARTLY right. They do their fair share of good as well. The story of a man dying of cancer is one such instance. Thanks to the good people of Reddit this loyal Trekkie will get to see some, if not all, of the new 'Star Trek' movie before he dies, thanks to the one and only J.J. Abrams.
It's that special time of year when people take all the funny things that happen and make them all into one big thing. Here, for example, are the best funny news bloopers of 2012.
Considering how much most people hate looking for a job, Dave Herman is definitely one of the more motivated people we've come across this year. With just five days left in the year, he's worked 99 different jobs, and he's looking for a 100th.
It turns out to make it onto a list of the dumbest criminals, you have to actually be pretty dumb. Granted, we can't all be masterminds, but it probably doesn't take much to know you shouldn't make a YouTube video boasting about the bank you just robbed. Or tweet about punching a guy in the face. Nor should you get into a fist fight over a piece of birthday cake.
In case you were wondering what happens when you leave the kids alone with Dad, here's a video to answer all your questions. It's a time lapse video of a dad and his kid playing while mom is at work. Messes are made
Send back the presents -- we really don't need them. We only need this video of a baby panda playing with a ball. Sincerely, watch it and tell us if you don't agree. We think Xiao Liwu, a cub at the San Diego Zoo, is ridiculously adorable
So Friday, December 21 is maaaaaaaybe going to be the apocalypse because a really old calendar ran out of space. It's already tomorrow in Australia, and people are reporting that it's fine. Of course other people are pointing out that the ancient Mayans weren't really operating on Greenwich Mean Time, so maybe Australia should just cool their jets. Some of us are calmly stuffing as much clothing as possible into our one measly carry-on bag for our Christmas trip home. Other people are taking more drastic measures. Here's how people are getting ready for tomorrow's "apocalypse."
