From the Guy Who Gave You Rebecca Black, Here’s ‘Tweenchronic’
Songwriter/producer Patrice Wilson has really outdone himself this time. 'Skip Rope' by Tweenchronic is maybe not as annoying as last year's 'It's Thanksgiving,' but it's definitely crazier. (Also, Patrice Wilson put on a giant chicken costume for that one.)

Al Roker Pooped His Pants at the White House and Told Everybody
Al Roker truly is a man of the people. He loses weight. He makes jokes. He video bombs 'Today Show' segments by freezing in place. And apparently he can't resist telling everybody when he has a little accident at the White House. The admission, which came out during an interview on 'Dateline,' has him catching all kinds of flak, but we have to admit we're impressed.

SodaStream Bringing Banned Commercial to Super Bowl 2013
Getting banned in the UK for "denigrating" bottled drinks won't stop SodaStream from bringing their message to the biggest advertising opportunity in the world -- Super Bowl 2013.

Fred Flintstone Replaced by Wrestler John Cena – Watch the Best Fruity Pebbles Commercials
Apparently kids need more "variety" today. That is one of the reasons why Fred Flintstone has been replaced by a professional wrestler on the Fruity Pebbles box. Although it is a "limited" run (only four million boxes), apparently John Cena is just the first of many people who will be gracing the brightly colored cereal's box.

Subway ‘Sandwich Artist’ Fired Over Ketchup Dispute Gone Awry
Maybe Subway is stepping up their game a tad. They've made it abundantly clear that they now have avocados and sriracha sauce, and they will NOT be putting ketchup on anybody's sandwich. At all. They don't even have ketchup, and one employee was willing to fight to prove it. They don't call them sandwich artists for nothing.
