Yesterday was the culmination of hours of hard work and studying at the Scribbs National Spelling Bee. Before Arvind Mahankali won the title of champion (like a bawse, it's worth noting), kids from across the country came together to experience some extreme competition.
Steve Carell made a delightful appearance on 'Ellen' the other day. Or perhaps it would be more accurate to say that Gru, Steve Carell's character from 'Despicable Me,' made an appearance.
If you're looking to publicly humiliate yourself while also getting some cardio, you need to see this video. Prancercise is the exercise for you.
A 'Star Trek' fan at Comicpalooza in Houston, Texas, got the chance to ask Sir Patrick Stewart what he thinks the most important work he's done outside of acting has been. It turned out to be a very good question, eliciting a nearly eight-minute response about Stewart's work to help women who are victims of violence and soldiers who suffer PTSD.
If you were planning on taking pictures at your wedding, you may as well cancel the photographer. In fact, you should probably call off the entire wedding, because what could possibly top this picture?
Here's a nice, unsettling thing to look at: "Sloth-facing," also known as "Quasimoderping." Basically, you just move the eyes around a picture until it looks like a sloth and you are laughing/scared. It's pretty big on the internet right now, thanks to Redditor treverhaas, whose album of sloth-faced celebrities picked up some steam.
Of course, subreddit /r/quasimoderp have been doing this (more or less) for about seven months now, so there are lots of good celbrisloths floating around on the internet. Here are some of our favorites:
Everyone's favorite miserable cat is finally getting her own movie. No, not Garfield. There have been two Garfield movies already. Where have you been? But it has been announced that Tard herself, aka Grumpy Cat, is the inspiration for a 'Garfield'-like live-action movie.
If you're all broken up about the end of 'The Suite Life of Zach and Cody' -- or its spin-off 'The Suite Life on Deck -- this probably won't make you feel any better. If you have never given any thought whatsoever to that show (like us), it's still a pretty interesting insight into how the Mouse House does business.
If you're not taking advantage of your baby's pliability and lack of motor control skills to pose them for silly photographs, frankly we don't understand why you even had kids. If for no other reason than to post a picture of your kid to Facebook every once in a while that is actually entertaining, instead of just sharing "the magic" of a 10-month-old eating pie. Of course they like it -- it's pie.
Kids, they say the darndest things, amirite?? One couple decided to harness the precocity of toddlers to announce to their friends and family that they're having a baby. When they asked their daughter Adela, to tell the camera what's happening in a few months, boy, oh boy, did she ever tell the world
If you're like us (larger than life mo-fos who don't take no guff from NOBODY), you probably find yourself screaming "DEAL WITH IT" at people on the internet on a fairly regular basis. But why type it in all caps, when you could just post a link to a GIF on somebody's Facebook page after shamelessly confessing that you think their baby is "average at best"? After all, if a picture is worth a thousand words, then a GIF must be worth like a thousand million by our estimate. Don't like our math? DEAL WITH IT.
If you've ever had the unfortunate opportunity to come face to face with a goose, you know that birds are total jerks. If you've been blessed enough to somehow avoid all personal contact with birds, we are here to tell you that birds are total jerks.
