How We Feel About the Last Day of Summer
Cherish it while you can -- the autumnal equinox is tomorrow, September 22nd. The first day of Autumn. It's okay to give up on your dream of getting a tan -- those days are gone. How do we feel? Here's how we feel --
R.I.P. LMFAO — Funny Videos to Remember Them By
Oh NO! What are we going to do!?! LMFAO has announced that they are going on a "hiatus" (yeah, that's what our parents said too), which means somebody else will have to step up to fill the void left behind at grocery stores that play inappropriately upbeat music. Let us remember these party monsters as they would have wanted -- by watching the comical videos they've inspired.
See the Faces People Really Make In Haunted Houses
Halloween is coming, and we thought we'd get into the spirit of things by revisiting one of our favorite sets of spooky photos ever. These candid pics were taken of people passing through the Nightmares Fear Factory in Niagara Falls and they show the funny/scared/shocked faces we all really make when in a haunted house. Unlike the haunted houses we've been to, this one must actually be scary -- fa
Slow Motion Makes Gallagher Cool Again
Gallagher is back. And he's doing the exact same thing he's always done. It turns out a shirtless old man swinging a giant flaming wooden hammer at a watermelon IS actually pretty cool. You just have to put it in HD, and slow it waaaaay down...
U Can’t Touch This Obama/MC Hammer Mashup
Remember the "you didn't build that" debacle? It turns out if you take enough of President Obama's words out of context you can make him do a little rap song that sounds remarkably like "U Can't Touch This" by MC Hammer. Bonus at 2:52 -- turns out the president is ticklish...
Best Dad Ever Sends Toy Train Into Space
We assumed this guy was the world's worst dad for taking his son's favorite toy and launching it into space. But it turns out he could track it using GPS so that it wouldn't be lost forever, and he is actually the coolest dad on earth because now his kid has a video of his train in space...
‘Hunger Games’ Gets Hilarious Bad Lip Reading Treatment
This might be the best bad lip reading yet. This time the stuff they're saying almost makes sense. Plus it's got a Woody Harrelson impression. We're going to go ahead and say we like it even more than their hilarious rendition of 'Twilight...
iPhone 5 Spoof Points Out Phone’s Many Shortcomings
The new iPhone 5 looks great, but we did have concerns about "scroll fatigue" and not being able to take one of those snazzy panoramic shots with just one click. That's why these guys came up with a phone that is nearly 800% taller than the original iPhone...
Grocery Store Girl Crushes ‘I Will Always Love You’
Well, this is significantly better than the music that's usually playing at the grocery store. This girl picks up the mic for a karaoke machine at a store and freaking kills Whitney Houston's 'I Will Always Love You.' Can this count as her 'X Factor' audition...
9 of the Wackiest Bathrooms Ever
We spend so much time doing the pee pee dance and hoping that the homeless person who's locked himself in the Starbucks bathroom hasn't died that it's nice to take a moment every now and then and remind ourselves that this isn't the way things are everywhere. Here are nine of the coolest bathrooms we could find (store one away in your happy place for safekeeping).
