Suddenly we feel very lucky to have been born in the '80s. Back then, our biggest naming danger was being called Brandi or Lacey. One mom-to-be is letting the internet name her child, so who knows what it will be called.
Here you were proud of that macrame potted plant caddy you tied together. This video might have you rethinking your hobbies.
Redditor nite4awk made these awesome pics of comic strip greats Calvin and Hobbes in real life settings. They are beautiful. Hopefully they will make your day. If you'd like to see more, you can find them here in resolutions suitable for computer wallpaper. Awesome!
We only know a few things about the person who made this, and these are things we've deduced. They own a lot of LEGOs. They have an ENORMOUS room. They also have a lot of spare time and patience. And they don't mind the sound of plastic clanking together
To quote a friend, "1980s Steve Guttenberg: If Bill Murray can't do it, Gutt's your man." Let's take a moment to reflect on everyone's favorite '80s nice guy. A man who was described by Playgirl as "Cute, Cuddly (And Single!)." A man who needs no introduction, but if you do need an introduction you should probably watch this embarrassing video. A man who looks great in a silver wetsuit. Steve Guttenberg. The man, the myth, the star of 'Police Academy,' 'Short Circuit,' '3 Men and a Baby' and pretty much every movie that mattered between the years of 1982 to 1991. Need more proof? Get your Gutt on below.
Camille and Kennerly Kitt are back, and this time they've gone dark. We've seen these identical twin harpists do the theme to 'Game of Thrones.' We've seen them do Zelda. We've even seen them cover Rihanna. Now they're focusing their attention on the Rolling Stones in this version of 'Paint It Black.'
Left on her own without legal representation, this girl (who was awaiting arraignment for a first arrest) was in over her head. It probably also didn't help that she didn't get the sobering reality of being physically present in court to knock some sense into her, since this is a video arraignment taking place from jail, where she is nervous and surrounded by other inmates. Oh, and it doesn't help that this judge is clearly some kind of jerk.
This is definitely our favorite kind of censorship. It's the kind where the bleeps aren't quite long enough and you can tell exactly what curse words are being said underneath them.
Here's confirmation that the internet can be a very stupid place. We're not sure why somebody would want to make a video of themselves testing out their new bidet, we only know that this guy gets what he deserves for making such a video.
Well, color us impressed. Usually when we want to play Mario Kart, we spend thirty minutes looking for the Wii steering wheel, then just give up and re-watch the second season of 'Game of Thrones.' So, good for these guys! They've got enough initiative to make up for the rest of us
It's Tuesday, so you probably need a good cry. Here, watch this video. It's children from Sandy Hook Elementary performing 'Somewhere Over the Rainbow' on 'Good Morning America.' The kids recorded the song, with folk musician Ingrid Michaelson, at the home of former Talking Heads members Tina Weymouth and Christ Frantz.
