One of the best parts about the holiday season is when Santa comes to town for a visit. Every single year, he makes his rounds to American shopping malls so little kids (and adults-- we’re guilty) can have an up-close-and-personal gift-begging session with the guy. The whole thing is pretty impressive if you think abo
Not that we're counting or anything, but Christmas is only 27 days and a few hours away, which means it's time to get into the spirit ASAP. Now, this doesn't mean going 'Gangnam Style' crazy with house lights. You also don't have to go buying the 12 days of Christmas to prep for the holidays either, although that would be super awesome. It can require very little to no effort to feel all tingly with Christmas excitement, like making obnoxiously long gift lists or dressing up our cats like reindeer. Come on, you know we can't get through the holidays without embarrassing our pets.
Being a TV chef has to be an extremely tough job. Think about it-- that person has to cook and talk at the same time. Sheesh, that's rough. While there are extremely engaging cooks on camera-- like Mama June whipping up her famous "sketti" -- that talent is rare. That's why we understand this guy's struggles. Well, sort of.
Llamas are funny creatures. They're funny-looking, find cows hilarious and take part in some truly awesome animal photobombing. However, there is one unfortunate thing about the little guys-- these poor things are prone to awful haircuts.
Germany is home to some pretty awesome things, like tons of awesome beer and lots of hot German babes. We're also huge fans of naked grocery shopping, so the country ranks pretty high up on our list of favorites. But recently, we found out the land of bratwurst and wienerschnitzel is also home to one massive WTF -- erotic zoos. No, Germany. No.
People are weird. You're a nutcase, we're lunatics, everyone in this crazy old world is out of their mind in one way or another. Think about it: people are eating turkey testicles and imagining a life without porn. But then there's this lady.
Black Friday brings out some of the most hilariously strange antics of us Americans. On Thanksgiving we give thanks for all the great stuff in our lives, and just hours later, we're waiting in massive lines and getting in spats with fellow consumers over the latest deals on video games. That's the good ol' USA for you.
Whatever the situation, you don't want to get on Overly Attached Girlfriend's bad side. She can get super weird, super quick. But the truth is, all her creepiness is really funny. So what better way to spice up the American Music Awards red carpet than by planting the YouTube sensation in the path of famous musicians and celebrities?
Meteorologists have one of the coolest jobs around. Think about it-- they can totally get away with taking on weather 'Gangnam Style' and no one bats an eyelash over it. Al Roker can also do a weird mannequin impression mid-broadcast, and it's completely acceptable. (Although that was really, really strange...) That's why we're not surprised that one of actress Scarlett Johansson's dreams is to read the weather in classic Roker style.
If you ask us, there are two things that will never, ever go out of style: zombies and babes. Better yet, just combine the two. What can we say; there's something about bloody women in bikinis that just gets us going.
It seems like every day we discover yet another reason to reaffirm the awesomeness of our four-legged friends. For one thing, dogs are super troopers when it comes to our embarrassing Facebook antics.
As guys, we'll eat almost anything. Brew us up some cat poop coffee, toss us a stuffed cone pizza explosion; we can handle it. There is one thing we're a little weary to try, though -- mostly because it's a male issue at hand -- deep fried turkey testicles.
