The 'Dreams Are Real' Music Video Is So Very Internet (1 видео)
This, as far as I can tell, is a music video for a song named “Dreams Are Real” made by guy named Ryan Barger. I feel safe in saying that it’s probably the most internet thing you will see today. Here’s how it’s described on YouTube… Time travel. Space Exploration. Violence. Drama. Love. Cats. Dreams. Enjoy.

Stoned Patrick Stewart Explains 'Quadruple Take' (1 фото + 1 видео)
Sir Patrick Stewart, the only knighted actor to ever give a master ACTING course on an animated show starring an alien and a talking goldfish, is now offering private lessons to his girlfriend, Sunny Ozell. Last night, she uploaded a video of one such lesson, apparently filmed in a tree house after firing up a doob, in which Stewart explains the complexities of the “quadruple take” using my new security answer for everything, “Her buns ARE the best.” My acting experience is limited to not screaming when I’m told “how great CSI was,” but I’d pay good money to have Stewart teach me all of the finest sitcom tropes. The spit take, the jaw drop, the scheduling two dates on the same night across the street from one another. Throw in a animal reaction shot exercise with Spot, and I’d start today.

PBS's Game/Show Argues Mario Will Be Around In 2525 (1 фото + 1 видео)
PBS was pretty slow to embrace the Internet, but in the last few years they’ve really gone full out. They’ve remixed Mr. Rogers, they’ve been doing some pretty compelling short documentaries about all sorts of topics. And their first dedicated webseries about video games, Game/Show, is… really interesting, actually. First of all, it’s hosted by James Warren of Kill Screen, who’s probably one of the better games journalists out there at the moment. Secondly, it makes a pretty compelling case that long after everybody reading this is dust, we’ll still be playing Mario games:

Watch Olivia Munn And Letterman Dissect Her Viral Swing Fall Video (2 видео)
Olivia Munn is a good talk show guest. She’s funny and quirky and can somehow find a way to arouse you with her Tiger Mom abuse stories, so of course just a little over a week after falling off an indoor swing and dislocating her shoulder she shared the viral video of the incident with David Letterman who had not yet seen it. Olivia explaining the whole thing to Dave is reason enough to watch, but add Letterman’s endless fascination with the physics of the swing and just where and how she fell to sustain such injuries and you’ve got yourself some good television. He also can’t figure out how to say her last name at the end, which I enjoyed a little too much. And here’s the first segment of her describing how she gets uncomfortable at fashion shows so she just mimics whatever Catherine Zeta-Jones is doing. Needs more boob window, but good times nonetheless.

'Star Drunk' Proves All Sci-Fi Franchises Need More Booze (VIDEO) (2 фото + 2 видео)
Ever wanted to see a sci-fi short film written and performed by drunk people? Well, that’s probably half of all films, but Star Drunk did it intentionally. Of course this happened in Portland. Star Drunk is an experiment in writing a short film while drunk; several writers from Portland got together one night to write the script. We promised each other that whatever we wrote that night, we’d produce as a short film. We ended up creating a Star Trek-Star Wars-Battlestar Galactica’esque parody with laser gun fights and space battles. Taking the concept a step further (and stranger), we asked our cast to be drunk on the night of filming. [ChrisRWilsonFilm] Those actors include Greg James, Adam Elliot Davis, Kyle Smith, Britt Harris, Alexander Fraser, and Bethany Jacobs (pictured above) doing an impression of Carol Marcus from Star Trek Into Darkness.

Watch Drunk Alexander Skarsgård At Soccer Match (1 фото + 1 видео)
I’m not entirely sure of the specifics in the video below, but I do know that it shows peen-flaunter Alexander Skarsgård at a soccer match cheering on his beloved Hammarby Fotboll and that he’s really drunk and seems really pissed. According to a helpful translation provided by from someone on Oh No They Didn’t: alex: all of you can go to hell, [some name on S I think] look at me you f*cking p*ssy random person: look at his magical f*cking hairdo alex: who’s the best team? (and then a couple of more similar questions that I can’t make out) crowd: hammarby (the name of the team) alex and crowd: we’re the hottest we’re the best we’re the ones who win the most…hammarby…clapping. “Magical f*cking hairdo”? Is that what they’re calling penises in Sweden now?

When Is The 'Breaking Bad' Series Finale? That's A Big Night Of TV (1 фото + 1 видео)
Sunday, September 29 is most notable for our purposes because it is the date of the series finale of Breaking Bad. That is, provided we all survive until then and don’t just start vibrating at such a high frequency from the intensity and breakneck pace of the episodes leading up to it that we burst into a billion zillion little particles and eventually settle back down to the earth as a fine, sand-like sediment layer on the crust. (Scientists thousands of years from now will refer to this as the Heisenberg layer. It will be totally devoid of nutrients, but if you put your ear very close to it, you will hear it ramble on and on about its feelings about Skyler and what it thinks Walt did with the ricin.) But that’s not the only thing on television that night. Far from it. Sunday, September 29 also features a primetime football game on NBC (always a ratings juggernaut), an episode of Boardwalk Empire on HBO, and a SLEW of premieres, including: Homeland; the final season of Eastbound & Down; The Good Wife; The Simpsons, Bob’s Burgers, and the rest of Fox’s animation block; The Amazing Race for reality TV fans; and the series premiere of both Lizzy Caplan’s Masters of Sex and Stephen Merchant’s Hello Ladies. Now, none of this is to say that anything in that paragraph should prevent you from watching the series finale of one of the best television dramas of the past decade or so. But I did want to give you a month of notice in case you want to send your DVR off to some martial arts master for an intense training program to help it prepare. I’ve seen it work before....

'Iron Man 3' Animatics Give The Mandarin A Proper Explosive Finale (1 фото + 3 видео)

Bryan Cranston Cast As Lex Luthor In 'Man of Steel 2' Fan-Made Video (2 фото + 1 видео)
When it was announced that Ben Affleck is our new Batman and Bryan Cranston may be Lex Luthor, we knew the fan mashups would roll in (Example: Southie Batman!). This one, however, threw the fulminated mercury against the wall and blew everyone else away. SoylentBrak1 pieced together footage from twenty properties including Breaking Bad, Man Of Steel, The Dark Knight, Total Recall (2012), Daredevil, and more. It’s all set to “I Will Find Him” and “Arcade” from Han Zimmer’s excellent Man Of Steel score. Let this video serve as a reminder why Warner seriously needs to cast Bryan Cranston as Lex Luthor. Everyone else auditioning best stay out of his territory.

Amazon Enables 1-Click Within All Your Android Apps (1 фото)
In-app purchases are a pretty big deal to developers; there’s a reason the “top grossing” apps in the Android store are mostly free. Now Amazon is trying to extend that logic to buying… well, anything you see inside an app. Amazon calls it the “Mobile Associates API”, and essentially, it means you can make anything in an app an ad for it on Amazon. And it’s not necessarily a bad deal for developers, either: "The Mobile Associates API allows developers to sell real products from the millions of items at Amazon, whether physical or digital, from inside their apps or games while earning up to 6% in advertising fees from those purchases. The Mobile Associates API is an extension of Amazon Associates, our successful web-based affiliate program created in 1996, paying advertising fees to hundreds of thousands of affiliates worldwide." 6% may not sound like much, but consider that some apps can be seen by millions of people in a given day. 1% of those buying could put a lot of cash in the pockets of developers, and you have to admit, being able to click a link to buy a book is a lot less annoying than having to hit up your friends on Facebook for in-game gold. The ultimate goal, of course, is to crush all retailers under Amazon’s heel as it builds a massive fulfillment network that makes consumer gratification instant and Jeff Bezos can afford his own planet. But, hey, it’s convenient!

Listen To Jon Lajoie's Miley Cyrus Song (1 фото + 1 видео)
I don’t hate Miley Cyrus. THERE I SAID IT. I’d much rather have a shameless pop star that I can’t look away from than the one who’s as stuffy and boring as whatever a Austin Mahone is. They’re radio-ready machines; their main cultural purpose is to make us feel bad for loving their music and being fascinated by them. What Miley Cyrus did at the VMAs wasn’t important or even good (it DEFINITELY wasn’t good), but her dancing around in her underwear while raping a bunch of stuffed bears is far more entertaining Lady Gaga’s latest art-fart project. In response to those like MSNBC’s Mika Brzezinski who called Miley a disruptive slut, basically, Jon Lajoie, best known as Taco from The League, recorded a song called “Miley, You’re a Good Girl.” Sample lyric: “We want topless women in our music videos/We want pop stars acting like they’re in a porno/You know we want it and get what we asked for/But then Miley does it, we say OH MY GOD NO.” Lajoie’s also working on a strain called Twerkin’ Tush.

A Reddit User Predicted Every Aspect Of Walter White's Confession (3 фото)
Now that you’ve wiped the tears from your eyes after seeing Hank and Marie’s response to Miley Cyrus’s VMAs performance, let’s take a moment to appreciate the fact that someone essentially predicted everything that happened in Walt’s confession — a scene I termed “one of the more diabolically brilliant plot twists I’ve ever seen on a TV show” in my recap/discussion post earlier — five days ago on Reddit.

RJ Mitte -- AKA Walter Jr. -- Had Fun At His Vegas 21st Birthday Bash (5 фото)
Sooo, it looks like the latest heart throb to hit Hollywood, RJ Mite, just turned 21 and celebrated his new found awesomeness in Las Vegas, like any other typical 21 year old boy. The results? Well lets put it this way: I'm not sure whether to laugh in amusement, or let out a giant "AAWWWWW HOW CUUUTTEEE" with a condescending look on my face. I think I'll do both. Here are the results of said party:

What If Dexter Writers Wrote Breaking Bad? (2 фото)
n yesterday’s next day Breaking Bad discussion a lot of you voiced your confusion and calls of bullsh*t as to how and when the light finally turned on for Jesse with regards to the ricin theft/Brock poisoning/Huell’s delicate hot dog fingers. Even Anderson Cooper didn’t know what the hell was going on. I personally felt like the groundwork had been sufficiently laid down and it made for a better reveal that they didn’t hold our hand through it. But, you know, I’m cursed with ridiculous perception skills and high cheek bones. We can agree to disagree if you feel differently, but we should also agree that given some perspective as to how it probably would have been handled by other, much hack-ier writing teams, Breaking Bad’s version of divisive writing is still superior to everything else on its best day. To really hammer this home one Redditor created the below graphic to remind us all why we’re so damn lucky.

'Justified's' Walton Goggins Is Developing A New Drama For Fox (5 фото)
Okay, good news and bad news. GOOD NEWS: Walton Goggins — the man behind the well-read, meth-slinging, gun-toting, evangelizing, lightning-strike-hair-having, ex-sister-in-law-marrying, Harlan County felony aficionado Boyd Crowder — is currently developing a new cop drama for Fox titled “Gringo” that will “revolve around an American cop who moves south of the border with his Mexican wife and ends up caught in the middle of the cartel wars.” BAD NEWS: Despite “an American cop who moves south of the border with his Mexican wife and ends up caught in the middle of the cartel wars” sounding like a terrific role for Walton Goggins, there is no word yet whether he will be playing the titular gringo. All we know so far is that he and Adam Fierro (a former executive producer on The Shield) will be teaming up to executive produce, and that the two of them co-wrote the story. BUT: If he does end up starring in a big network drama like this, it would probably cut significantly into his availability for Justified, and we just can’t have that at all. BUUUUUUUT: SHERIFF BOYD CROWDER PATROLLING THE STREETS OF JUAREZ??????? I have no idea how to feel about this.

The Onion Trolls CNN Hard Over Miley Cyrus; CNN Editor Responds (3 фото)
Satirical publication The Onion published a satirical article about CNN.com’s very real head story about Miley Cyrus at last night’s VMAs, entitled “Miley Cyrus Tweks, Stuns VMAs Crowd.” Alone, this would have been funny enough, but The Onion attributed the satirical article to CNN.com’s very real Meredith Artley.

A Supercut Of 'Thomas The Tank Engine' Crashes Set To 'Bodies' (1 фото + 1 видео)
I suppose, in the interest of being as accurate and responsible as possible, I should point out a couple things. First, this supercut of crashes from Thomas the Tank Engine set to “Let the Bodies Hit the Floor” was posted on YouTube over two years ago, and it already has close to 150,000 views, so it’s not exactly the hippest, freshest thing we’ve ever posted here. But I just saw it for the first time a few minutes ago on Laughing Squid and it cracked me up a little, so here we are. Second, technically speaking, the title of the show is actually Thomas & Friends, not Thomas the Tank Engine, and the title of the Drowning Pool song in question is just “Bodies,” which makes my headline inaccurate at best and willfully ignorant at worst. But anyway, with all that out of the way, I’d like to get to my real point here, which is LET THE ENGINES HIT THE FLOOR LET THE ENGINES HIT THE FLOOR. LET THE ENGINES HIT THE FLOOR LET THE ENGINES HIT THE FLOOR.

Revisiting First 'Madden NFL' Soundtrack From 2003 (1 фото + 11 видео)
HAPPY MADDEN RELEASE DAY EVERYONE. It's a big event for the video game and sports industries alike, as well as for people who own $250 DeShaun Foster jerseys and aren't above going to Walmart at midnight to pick up a copy (guilty). Our own Dan Seitz already wrote his defense of Madden NFL 25, but I want to take a look and listen to something that's much tougher to defend: the first Madden EA Trax soundtrack. It came back in 2002, when Marshall Faulk graced the cover of Madden 2003, and I'm already sorry for all future Audiovent references. For everyone who hasn't Eternal Sunshine'd Audiovent, though, let's go the tape.

Did you think The Dark Knight Rises could have used more romance, and perhaps some voiceover by Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams? Maybe not, but can we agree The Notebook could have used more punching? This mashup video, The Dark Notebook Rises, gives us exactly that. Sure. Why not? At least we can understand what Bane’s saying.

Hugh Laurie's Love Letter To Los Angeles (2 фото)
I present this — Hugh Laurie’s love letter to Los Angeles — to you guys today because I’ve never really been a big fan of LA. It’s always been one of those places I’ve been fine with to visit but would never want to live. But I have to say, Laurie’s pro-LA argument is quite persuasive. I’ve actually come to think that I wouldn’t want to kill myself or someone else if I had to live there.

Mississippi Residents Love Porn More Than You (3 фото)
There are two main insights to be enlightened by from PornHub’s data dump that’s now steaming up the Internet like some sort of steamer, perhaps in Cleveland. Fact the first: America really loves “creampies,” “college,” “teens,” and “compilations.” Those four pornographical categories are the top-searched “adult-based terms” for over 30 states in AMERICA, with the occasional outlier of “anita queen” in Nevada and “smoking” in Wyoming. Fact the second: Mississippi’s love of porn is far greater than your state’s.

'Parks And Recreation' Season 6 Guest Stars (8 фото)
If it wasn't for Parks and Rec returning this weekend, we'd all be insane. Gone are The Office, 30 Rock, and Community (for now); they’ve been replaced by Welcome to the Family (Latin family vs. white family culture clash), Sean Saves the World (a Victor Fresco show, which is good, about a daughter moving in with her gay dad played by Sean Hayes, which is bad), and The Michael J. Fox Show, the only one of the three new series that could be promising. So, really: it’s Parks and Rec, and the rest. But that’s essentially what it was like after 30 Rock went off the air earlier this year, too: Parks was the only consistently great Thursday night sitcom, with Community rarely showing a creative glimmer of its former self and The Office bankrupt of fresh ideas. Next season sounds highly promising, too, even with the eventual departures of Rob Lowe and Rashida Jones. Parks has been hiring great guest stars left and right, time after time, so much so that it’s been tough to keep up with. Here’s a helpful guide to who they’ve already got, and who they should get.

Wife Carries Legless Marine Husband In Photo (1 фото + 1 видео)
Rarely do our interests intersect with those of Good Morning America‘s (we hate good things and despise mornings), but this is too good, too dare-I-say heartwarming to not pass along. In 2008, while serving in Afghanistan with the Marines, Jesse Cottle stepped on an IED and lost both of his legs. After returning to the States, Cottle spent months painfully recovering in a hospital and was eventually given prosthetic legs. Then love came a-calling: "After [time] in the hospital, Jesse met his future wife Kelly, 24, in San Diego at a swim meet during one of his first outings with his new prosthetic legs. “His personality and who he is just outweighs his injuries by so much that you forget about it after a while,” Kelly explained." They got married in August of last year. To celebrate, Jesse and Kelly recently visited her family in Boise, Idaho, where they took a series of family portraits, some of which show Jesse carrying her happy husband on her back. One photo, taken by ShutterHappy’s Sarah Ledford, has nearly 11,000 Likes on Facebook because Jesse Cottle is the opposite of mornings, in that: people like him.

Mitch Hurwitz Confirms Arrested Development Movie In The Works (2 фото)
Exactly a month ago Arrested Development creator Mitch Hurwitz and Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos confirmed that Arrested Development would return in some form or another. And in the short amount of time since Mitch Hurwitz has apparently gotten hard to work. He’s just checked in with Rolling Stone to confirm that the next installment is in fact — in his mind anyway — a movie. Mitch Hurwitz has good news for Arrested Development fans. “I’m working on the movie right now,” the show’s creator tells Rolling Stone. “I can’t get into much more detail because I don’t want to scare anybody off. I don’t want to be presumptuous about it. I don’t own the property outright – it’s a 20th Century Fox property. But everybody seems really into it and really eager to make a movie.” OK, so it’s not set in stone, but I’ve gotta believe that if this is the direction Hurwitz wants to take the Bluths no one is going to stand in his way. He also must have gotten some form of a go ahead if he’s already working on the feature film version. And since we already knew Arrested Development would be back in some form or another the movie news is super swell and all but what I found most interesting came at the end of the interview…

St. Louis Cardinals Fan Tries To Kick Chicago Cubs Fan (1 видео)
The long-running rivalry between the Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals turned into a one-sided battle last weekend. In this amusing video, a Cardinals fan tries to fight a Cubs fan outside Wrigley Field following the Cubs win. Proving the Cubs aren’t the only ones who are adept at beating themselves, this guy winds up on the ground without even being touched. With the Cardinals knee deep in the pennant race, this may be the closest the team gets to being down and out – a place where the Cubs seem to call home.

Hilarious Video Perfectly Captures the Bozos Play Pickup Basketball (1 видео)
Looking to play a little basketball? Better know what you’re getting yourself into, first. This hilarious video breaks down the types of players you can find in any pickup game. From the guy who’s more concerned with what he wears to the fella who’s constantly calling fouls to the man who’s filled with rage, it’s a spot-on look at the competitors who you can find dotting most playground courts. Hmm, kinda makes us glad we’re couch potatoes who are more interested in watching basketball than playing it.

When it comes to pulling off a robbery, this sad sack fell on his face. A robber tries to hold up a café in Brazil, with the kind of result you would expect to see in an old silent movie. The bandit enters the eatery and it looks like nothing exciting will happen. Well, whoever was in there must not have been in the mood to deal with a criminal because the outlaw was discarded like packing peanuts. If there’s any proof crime doesn’t pay, this is surely it.

Watch a Reporter Get Naked Smack in the Middle of Interview with Mayor (1 видео)
Well, here’s proof that maybe Canada is not as bad as we think. In the middle of interview with the mayor of Kelowna, British Columbia, reporter Lori Welbourne decided to tackle the issue of going topless in public. Mayor Walter Gray is stunned, at first, but quickly gathers himself and continues with the Q&A and a spirited discussion with Welbourne. And good news for our intrepid reporter, too – Gray tells her she’s within her rights to discard her shirt. Let’s just hope this doesn’t start a trend.

Video Perfectly Captures Life Without a Cell Phone (1 видео)
One time two years ago, some skeezebag stole our phone right out of our purse. For three months we were phone-less. So, we feel fairly well qualified to testify that this video, about what it’s like to be surrounded by friends with smartphones when you don’t have one, is pretty much spot on. Once you’ve been stripped of your tiny, take everywhere, palm-sized computer, you pretty much immediately notice how often people are using theirs. It’s depressing. Don’t believe us? Watch this video.

Miley Cyrus Looked Just Like a Giraffe at the VMAs (9 фото)
People are comparing Miley Cyrus‘ appearance at the VMAs last night to a lot of things — an uncooked chicken, an old Jim Carey character, naked Hank Hill, etc. But nobody is comparing her to what she really looked like — a giraffe with its tongue sticking out. After telling mom and anybody else who would listen, we decided to make MORE proof! Here are some pictures where we’ve replaced Miley’s head with the head of a giraffe. You can barely tell the difference.

Puppet News Team Investigates the Lack of Music on MTV (1 видео)
The blogosphere is still buzzing about Miley Cyrus’ risqué performance at MTV’s Video Music Awards, with some people taking a step back to ask a very basic question: why is MTV honoring videos, since it so rarely plays them anymore? That’s a riddle puppet newscasters Blake Worthington and Bungo, of Glove and Boots News, try to tackle in this funny video, in which they try to figure out what exactly happened to the “M” in MTV. The duo can’t hide their despair while discussing the parade of thoughtless reality shows the network now airs. Yes, the question of why MTV doesn’t play videos isn’t new, but this take is funny and pretty much on the money. Let’s just hope this trend stops soon. We don’t think we can handle a reality show about Miley opening a twerking academy.

Watch 'Star Drunk,' a Movie Made By and Starring Drunk People (1 видео)
A short film called ‘Star Drunk’ answers a question you didn’t know you had: what would a movie look like if it was written by drunk people, directed by a drunk person and starred only drunk actors? Sorry, ‘Sharknado.’ You no longer hold the title for the most ridiculous movie to come out in 2013. The answer can be found in this sci-fi action flick, which actually comes out better than you think, thanks to some slick production and a cast that, while blitzed, is not fall-down-on-your-face-after-a-night-cruising-the-frat-houses wasted. One of the film’s stars even took to Reddit to dispel any talk the cast really wasn’t loaded: A big question being asked repeatedly and understandably is: were all the actors REALLY drunk? The answer is a big YES! In fact, I personally got so wasted due to not timing my drinking correctly to when I was supposed to deliver, that I actually passed out and had to do it all over again (yes, get drunk all over again) a couple days later.” Ahh, only in America can you go online to prove you were indeed inebriated while doing your job. What a country! As for what the cast of ‘Sharknado’ was on when they agreed to make that cult classic, well, that’s under wraps.

'Breaking Bad' Meets Miley's VMA Performance in Perfect Mash-Up (1 видео)
By now you’ve probably seen Miley Cyrus’ barely clothed performance at the MTV VMAs. Either that, or seen a Tweet, Facebook status, editorial, newscaster rant or carrier pigeon message about it. Well, so have Hank and Marie from ‘Breaking Bad.’ Basically, everyone has an opinion on a former child star proving to the world she’s now an adult by performing a racy dance number on the awards show famous for former child stars performing racy dance numbers. So it’s refreshing that one brilliant YouTuber combined footage of Miley twerking with dudes in animal costumes and the gut-wrenching clip of Hank and Marie (SPOILER ALERT!) watching Walt’s twisted “confession” video implicating Hank as the leader of his meth empire. Rarely have two major pop culture events fit together so perfectly. It’s almost like ‘Breaking Bad’ creator Vince Gilligan planned the footage to sync up with Miley. Wait a second…could Miley be the head of Madrigal??? It’s all connected!

Astronaut Has Hard Time Adjusting to Life on Earth in Video (1 видео)
If you ever wondered what it’s like for astronauts to readjust to life on Earth, this video has the answer for you. Apparently you drop stuff all the time, for starters. This video, made by the Johnson Space Center, is a little corny, but it’s nice to know that even astrophysicists and people who’ve drifted around in space feel compelled to make YouTube videos. They’re not so different from the rest of us.

Grumpy Cat Meets Disney In Hilariously Depressing Art (3 фото)
Besides being the Web’s funniest downer, Grumpy Cat has also been a source of artistic inspiration ever since he claimed fame. How Tarter Sauce so effortlessly gains a huge fanbase, we have no idea, nor are we questioning. The famous kitty just has some sort of magical ‘oomph’ to him, which is why these Disney-meets-Grumpy-Cat pictures are so fitting. User TsaoShin on DeviantArt created what could be one of the most genius varieties of fan art to date. Basically, the grump master replaces key Disney characters in famous movie scenes, and the result is hilariously depressing. Honestly, who even wants to be the Lion King or ride on a magic carpet? BORING. Check ‘em out below:

White Trashiest Wedding March Ever Is ... Really Something (1 видео)
A lady decided to do a “seductive” dance down the aisle to her own version of “Crazy B—-” by Buckcherry, and now it is being called the white trashiest wedding in history. (NSFW, btw.) We’ll tell you one thing — it really takes us back. It’s like flying home for a wedding all over again. This incredibly cringe-y wedding video might not include buckets of beer, people firing rifles to celebrate or a bunch of BBQ-sauce splattered folks line dancing to ‘Cottoneye Joe,’ but we bet that all happened later. Obviously the ever-classy internet has taken umbrage with the video, and began a barrage of insults aimed at the bride, who had this to say in response:

Video Puts Wilhelm Scream Where It Doesn't Belong (1 видео)
Here’s what happens when you stick the Wilhelm Scream any old place you want. The Wilhelm Scream is a classic movie and television sound effect of a high-pitched scream that is constantly recycled. If you’ve seen ‘Star Wars’ or any of the countless other movies it’s used in, you’ve heard it before. The first couple of clips of the Wilhelm Scream being used in this video from Diane Bullock, who helped bring you the equally hilarious ‘Mr. Wizard is a Dick‘ supercut, are real. After that, things get pretty ridiculous. Oh, and if you’ve never seen ‘King Kong,’ ‘Sophie’s Choice’ or ‘Old Yeller,’ SPOILERS. Also, you should probably watch those movies.

Is This Electrocution Prank Funny or Mean? (1 видео)
Here’s a prank that’s (pun ahoy!) shockingly funny. The husband in this video very convincingly fools his wife into thinking she has electrocuted him while he’s working on a light switch in their house. It’s really hilarious and we think you’re going to, ahem, light up when you see it. But some may think that tricking your spouse into thinking they’ve killed you is a tad on the cruel side. What say you? Funny or mean?

Who Twitter Thinks Should Play Batman Instead of Ben Affleck (9 фото)
Wow, people are upset that Ben Affleck is going to be the next Batman. Like, really upset. It’s almost like this somehow simultaneously affects them personally (it doesn’t), and they have nothing else in their lives to worry about (we’re jealous). They may be upset about it, but at least some folks have a sense of humor about it. Here are some choice tweets on the subject.

Drunk Vs. Stoned Video (1 видео)
Listen we’re not experts on science, but this seems like a pretty sound methodology. Get somebody really drunk and give them tests. Then get the same person really high and give them the same tasks. Compare the two results and decide which is better — alcohol or marijuana. SCIENCE! Buzzfeed wanted to be clear that the marijuana consumed in this video was done so legally in the state of California. So, cool your jets, Ranger Rick.

15 Signs Your Pet Is an Introvert (15 фото)
You think you know your pet, but do you *know* your pet? Would you, for example, say your guinea pig is a Betty or a Veronica? What’s your iguana’s opinion on repealing the Glass-Steagall Act? Most importantly, DO YOU EVEN KNOW YOUR FERRET’S MYERS-BRIGGS PERSONALITY TYPE????!! Is your pet … an INTROVERT? Here are 15 signs they just might be.*

34 Misleading Vintage Ads Promoting The Benefits Of Smoking (34 фото)
Quaint though they may be, we’ve come a long way from this hellishly misleading smoking advertisements from yesteryear. Actor Edmund Lowe once proudly declared: “It’s that delightful taste after a cup of coffee that makes Luckies a hit with me. And naturally I protect my voice with Luckies. No harsh irritants for me…..I reach for Lucky instead. Congratulations on your improved Cellophane wrapped. I can open it.” Even US President Ronald Reagan, paid off by big tobacco, willingly promoting the fact he loved to send cigarettes to all his friends at Christmas. Put it down to clever marketing or being genuine naive, this collection of vintage adverts promoting the health benefits of inhaling over 4,000 chemicals were all the rage 40 years ago. Of those 4,000 chemicals in tobacco smoke, around 69 of those same chemicals are known to cause cancer. Today, we’re better informed and more aware of the dangers and hazards associated with smoking. And whilst your local doctor might still have a crafty cigarette during his lunch break, you’d be hard pressed to find them willingly endorsing an expensive & addictive product, that ultimately kills you. Progress it seems, has been made.

Infographic: 8 Of The Biggest Design Fails In History (1 фото)
It’s hard to believe that some of the most ambitious architectural designs of the modern era, also proved to be significantly flawed when it came to their final execution. Despite all the funding, approvals, meetings, planning, scoping, documentation and individuals involved in constructing these impressive feats of human ingenuity, somewhere, somehow it all went wrong. The New School of Architecture and Design have created an infographic titled ‘Failure by Design‘ which highlights some of the most notable failures of architectural design from eight famous buildings from around the world. The errors range from significantly under estimating the weight of structures, to failing to accommodate the surrounding geological hazards to even erecting a building on unstable marshland. You’ll be amazed and confounded as to how any of these structures past the planning stage let alone ended up being built!

Extraordinarily Odd Photographs From A 1972 Rothschild Party (20 фото)
There have been few dinners parties quite like it. It’s December 12 1972, the night at which Marie-Hélène de Rothschild held her famous Surrealist Ball at Ferrières. As you can probably guess by her surname, she was a member of the ultra-wealthy Rothschild banking family. Few made the guest-list but if you did, it was the ultimate seal of approval from Parisian high-society. The requirements for the evening were “Black tie, long dresses & Surrealists heads” nothing more, nothing less. In keeping with the theme, the invitation which she sent was actually written backwards – to read the invite you had to hold it up to a mirror. Now when money is no object, the only limit is ones imagination and it’s fair to say that Marie-Hélène certainly had plenty in supply. Firstly she insisted the iconic Château where the party was to be housed, be floodlight with sweeping amber lights, designed to create the illusion the building was on fire. Once instead, she made sure the entire staircase was filled with servants and footmen dressed as cats – all in various poses of sleep. And once you’d overcome that initial shock, guests were then forced to enter a hellish labyrinthine maze – where should you get lost, one of the “cats” would rescue you and whisk you away where you’d be formally greeted by Marie-Hélène herself. On this particular night, she was wearing a ginormous giant’s head that was crying tears of diamonds. Naturally.

Impressive Portrait Of Yao Ming Painted Using A Basketballd (3 фото + 1 видео)
If you haven’t already guessed, we’re big fans of portrait art here on SBSG, but we have to admit it’s not every day you see artwork painted using merely a basketball! But that’s precisely the tool Malaysian artist Hong Yi used to create her portrayal of Chinese basketball player Yao Ming. Below is a time-lapse video of her bouncing the ball and bringing her creation to life using nothing more than red paint. Quite how she achieved such an impressive feat is still somewhat of a mystery, but then again that’s half the fun isn’t it? In her own words “I love to paint, but not with a paintbrush.”, she’s true to her word too. You can see the full range of her artistic experiments via redhongyi.com, there’s not a brush in sight.

Finland's 'Magic Forest' Is Actually A Place You'll Want To Avoid (20 фото)
If (like many) you found Singapore’s Frightening Theme Park Dedicated To Chinese Mythology a little too confronting, but still want to seek out the unusual and strange, you could always pay a visit to the “Magic Forest” in Imatra, Finland. Whether by choice or just bad design, it’s a forest littered with unsettling stone mannequins whose’s expressions are almost as creepy as the scenarios they’re placed in. How about a moustached made in a sharp blue seat, handcuffing a teenager to a tree and beating him with a cane? Or maybe you’d be more interested in a tall lanky local flasher? There’s even a few religious characters floating around, including The Grim Reaper himself, who certainly looks quite healthy. In short, it’s the perfect place to go anytime, day or night, if you want to give yourself nightmares for eternity.

Did You Know About The Abandoned Island In The Centre Of NYC? (22 фото)
Rewind to 1885 and it’s during that era that North Brother Island was used a busy hospital complex primarily designed to quarantine members of the public who had been infected with smallpox or the debilitating typhoid fever. It’s situated between the Bronx and Riker’s Island, New York City and later on in its life, the centre become a rehab clinic. As new developments with easier access have risen up, North Brother Island slowly fell into a state of disrepair eventually becoming abandoned in around 1963. This is what it looks like today, it’s now a bird sanctuary.

17 Soldiers Collapsing Due To Exhaustion At Military Ceremonies (17 фото + 1 видео)
Choosing a career of military service can certainly be a dangerous occupation. Aside from potentially being sent into foreign lands only to be bombard with enemy fire, even the day-to-day ceremonies can be hazardous. It’s not uncommon for soldiers to suddenly faint after standing at attention for a prolonged period. Is it because they are utterly overwhelmed by being in the presence of royalty or heads of state?
