We thought it was dead. Apparently we were wrong. Jon Stewart and the rest of the staff at 'The Daily Show' have made their contribution to Harlem Shake mania. At least they've put a bit of an original spin on the trend. Plus you get to watch Jon Stewart dance.
Well, here's something we weren't planning to see when we woke up this morning. It's a 'Twin Peaks' tribute Harlem Shake video. What's really got us is that 'Twin Peaks' star Kyle MacLachlan is actually in this
It's Valentine's Day, and we all know what that means. #CandyHeartsRejects is trending on Twitter, again. At this point it's basically a Valentine's tradition, like buying chocolates or getting into a blackout fight.
All those robes seem mighty grand, until a gentle breeze starts a-blowin'. We wouldn't be surprised if it was the wind that led to Pope Benedict XVI's abdication. Robes flying everywhere. Hats soaring off. It's not easy being pope.
There's only one thing that can erase all the hours of listening to people complain about how much they hate Valentine's Day. Can you guess what it is? It's looking at animals holding valentines! Let these pictures remind what this holiday is really all about -- putting your pet's head through a heart-shaped piece of posterboard. And hedgehogs. And otters. Happy Valentine's Day!
It's everybody's favorite hero hitchhiker Kai, the hatchet-wielding head smasher! Only this time instead of smashing skulls, he's playing a guitar, which is significantly less terrifying, but equally entertaining, it turns out.
Say what you want to about Valentine's Day, it is an excuse to buy a three pound box of chocolates and a double-sized bottle of white wine and not have to share it with anybody. But what to do while you're picking through your Whitman's
Being sad, alone and pathetic is sort of a specialty of mine. To give you an idea, I've definitely been humiliated by an airbrush artist at an amusement park, which I was visiting without any friends. So when it comes to Valentine's Day, I've basically mastered the art of being totally miserable. Feel free to join me, but it's going to be a pretty rough night. Let's get started, shall we?
Amazing and talented animator/motion graphics artist Michelle Enemark made these 'Star Trek: The Next Generation' valentines for her husband. Fortunately, in addition to being amazing and talented, she is also really sweet and said we could share them with you.
What better way to tell somebody you love them than with the words of the great people of Pawnee? 'Parks and Rec' very generously shared these Valentine's Day greeting cards on their Pinterest, and we think they're swell. Tell somebody that you don't hate them, or even adore them, and if it gets weird just say "Hey, I'm sorry, I thought you LIKED that show." And then never talk to them again. Happy Valentine's Day!!
There's something special about Florida. Not the Keys or the Everglades. Really it's the propensity for weird news that gets us. Strange things are always happening down there. If you're familiar with the bizarre state, @_FloridaMan on Twitter will delight you.
The news of Pope Benedict's resignation has got us feeling like it's 1415 all over again. HEY-O! Seriously, this is the first time a Pope has stepped down it nearly 600 years, so it's pretty big news
