19 amazing reactions to Bill Murray (and the Chicago Cubs) winning the 2016 World Series.

0

The Chicago Cubs just won the World Series for the first time in 108 years, defeating the Cleveland Indians in a thrilling game that went 10 innings. And while the Cleveland Indians have been maligned for their racist mascot, everyone loves the Cubs' avatar: Bill Murray.

Here are the greatest reactions to happiest-man-in-the-world Billy Murray, who himself had the greatest reactions to the Cubs' first championship in over a century.

Seth Meyers makes a final, hilarious case against voting for Trump.

0
0

There are only a few days left until Election Day, and Democrats are starting to panic over polls showing a tighter race between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton than before. There are also still a number of people who don't particularly like either the Democratic or Republican nominees for president and claim they haven't yet decided who they'll vote for, or if they'll vote at all. On Wednesday on Late Night, Seth Meyers offered those voters a bit of information to help them compare the two candidates: one of whom handled classified information on a private email server and the other of whom is a lot like the evil overlord from the world of Harry Potter.

In an attempt to persuade any potential voters who are still meh about voting for Clinton because they don't love everything about her, Meyers says:

I mean, do you pick someone who’s under federal investigation for using a private email server. Or do you pick someone who called Mexicans "rapists," claimed the president was born in Kenya, proposed banning an entire religion from entering the U.S., mocked a disabled reporter, said John McCain wasn’t a war hero because he was captured, attacked the parents of a fallen soldier, bragged about committing sexual assault, was accused by 12 women of committing sexual assault, said some of those women weren’t attractive enough for him to sexually assault, said more countries should get nukes, said he would force the military to commit war crimes, said a judge was "biased" because his parents were Mexicans, said women should be "punished" for having abortions, incited violence at his rallies, called global warming "a hoax perpetrated by the Chinese," called for his opponent to be jailed, declared bankruptcy six times, bragged about not paying income taxes, stiffed his contractors and employees, lost a billion dollars in one year, scammed customers at his fake university, bought a 6-foot-tall painting of himself with money from his fake foundation, has a trial for fraud coming up in November, insulted an opponent’s looks, insulted an opponent’s wife’s looks, and bragged about grabbing women "by the p—y." How do you choose? It’s so even.

This 2014 tweet about the World Series was so accurate, people thought the world would end.

Before the Cubs won the World Series and Bill Murray rampaged across the field in ecstasy, a tweet from 2014 began to go viral.

That's because the game was tied in game seven in extra innings. It was the Cubs vs. Indians. And as an extended rain delay stopped play just before the 10th inning, it looked like there was only one part of the prophecy left to fulfill.

The world had to end.

Despite many users calling the tweet "fake," as Snopes points out the prediction wasn't really so "far-fetched."

The Cubs and Indians were the two teams with the longest World Series droughts—so it's a pretty natural joke to make, even if it seems insane in the wake of Wednesday night's game seven.

The prophetic tweeter also explained his logic behind picking the Cubs and Indians two years in advance, which was based on the Cubs signing their manager Joe Maddon and the Indians' crop of young talent.

And by the way, the world didn't end. That'll be next Tuesday.

Vogue has just announced that cleavage is now no longer fashionable, which would be a problem for women with breasts that refuse to be hidden, if anyone really cared what Vogue says. Luckily most women don't, so no need to throw away your boobs just yet, ladies. Here are 15 of the funniest tweets about Vogue's proclamations that having a female body is basically currently out of style.

Jimmy Kimmel had country stars read Mean Tweets, as if country singers weren't already sad enough.

0
0

Wednesday night brought the Country Music Awards, and along with it, a special edition of Jimmy Kimmel's Mean Tweets, aimed solely at country stars. Because country singers clearly aren't sad enough already.

This is the second edition of Country Music Stars Mean Tweets, including artists like Trace Adkins, Dolly Parton, Bonnie Raitt, Cole Swindell, Miranda Lambert, Jake Owen, Little Big Town, Brett Eldredge, Chris Stapleton, and "crusty" Willie Nelson.

As for someone's observation about a Dolly Parton show looking like "a hooker convention," Parton simply replies, "I guess I should feel hurt, but I don't 'cause I patterned my look after a hooker." Boom. Oh, Dolly, you truly are a national treasure.

And so are you, Willie.

Yeah, crusty like a fine wine.

Ellen DeGeneres and Adam Levine scared the crap out of audience members in the women's room.

0

No one enjoys scaring people quite as much as Ellen DeGeneres, except for maybe Stephen King. Her obsession with scaring her executive producer Andy Lassner, as well as her guests (but especially Lassner, who she admits she loves scaring the most), around Halloween is legendary, but as the talk show host explains, "It's not seasonal, you can scare people year-round." Plus, she read some stuff on the internet about how getting scared is actually really good for you, so now she can justify her antics.

On Wednesday, she and Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine (who's got experience in the scaring people department from his stint on American Horror Story: Asylum) scared the wits out of unsuspecting ladies in the bathroom, including one older woman who ran out and never looked back (and may still be running).

Of course, once people got over the initial shock of cymbals and air horns and aliens in the restroom, they were pretty psyched, but getting scared by Ellen is a pretty big deal. Getting scared by Adam Levine, too, I guess, but he's not nearly as into it as she is. And happily, she made one woman's dream come true.

Not words you often hear, unless you happen to be Ellen DeGeneres.

Things get steamy when Ryan Reynolds and Conan O'Brien star in 'The Notebook 2.'

0

I know what you're thinking. "Ugh, No! Not another remake! Why can't we just leave classic movies alone?!" Trust me, this is a remake you'll actually love. Ryan Reynolds was on Conan Wednesday night to promote.... well, lots of things (including a documentary called Dolphins And How To Stop Them and an album of children's songs about Civil War wounds). But the best one was perhaps The Notebook 2, starring Reynolds and Conan as the romantic leads. (Yes, they make out.)

In my opinion, Reynolds' long list of things to promote is worth watching (it's hilarious), but if you want to get right to the Notebook-y goodness, skip to around 4:30 in the video below.


'Parks and Rec' predicted the Cubs' World Series win two years ago.

0

The Internet was aghast when a humble high schooler predicted the Chicago Cubs' 2016 World Series win, but most people forgot that it was also already announced on TV.

If you heard it from this dude's yearbook first, you heard it from the sitcom Parks and Recreation second.

The show's co-creator, Mike Schur, explained to The Washington Post how a seemingly throwaway joke was actually rooted in research and statistics.

As soon as we decided to throw the last season of ‘Parks and Rec’ into the future, into 2017, we sort of started calculating what the world might be like ... I was the only person on the staff who cared about baseball enough to track the Cubs’ minor league system.

The words of the prophet are written on Parks and Recreation. Even Ron Swanson is impressed.

Beyoncé and the Dixie Chicks were obviously incredible performing 'Daddy Lessons' at the CMAs.

Surprised country music fans and racists alike turned to the internet before the Country Music Awards on Wednesday to bemoan Beyoncé's slated performance alongside the Dixie Chicks.

Well, she's Beyoncé, so she put on a hell of a show—playing the jubilant, country-sounding "Daddy Lessons"—and unapologetically rubbing any discontent in the faces of her haters.

She had some prominent supporters.

After Beyoncé's performance, the song dominated real-time music charts, according to Billboard, who said the tune "reigned after she performed the track onstage."

No surprise there.

Elementary school's mock election canceled because the Trump kids were too authentic.

0

In a time-honored tradition, the faculty at Jericho Elementary School in Centereach, NY decided to hold a mock election, allowing the 6-10 year old student body to discuss, debate, and vote for either Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump, depending on their personal prepubescent politics. But unlike in years past, this time teachers were forced to cancel the mock election before voting could take place, because it was starting to look too much like the real thing.

Students at Jericho Elementary

Principal Glen Rogers told ABC News that he decided to cancel the election after kids started repeating "negative rhetoric about minorities." He explained:

Teachers have said they've heard some kids in the cafeteria chanting "Trump! Trump! Trump!" or saying they don't want Muslims here … I mean, kids often repeat what they hear on the TV or the news, but it doesn't mean it's OK. We have a diverse community here. We want all our students to feel valued.

If only the actual election was held to those standards. Now, students at Jericho will still have a mock election this Friday, but instead of the president, they'll be voting for their favorite school lunch. Although like all elections, their votes won't actually make a difference in what they're served.

Rogers explained that while he wants the kids to be informed about the election, he and other administrators decided that it was a topic "better explored in the classroom, where teachers can lead and guide discussions, rather than in the cafeteria among students." Like the difference between a moderated debate and a raucous rally full of hate speech and violence. Rogers added:

One thing we're really trying to teach the students is the differences between opinions and facts. It's important for our students to be able to express their opinions, but it's also important for them to be informed about it and not just repeating what they happen to hear.

Can we put Principal Glen Rogers in charge of the election before Tuesday? Because this thing is a sh*t show.

Mom bravely tries to keep living her life after cruel son changes her name on Facebook.

0
0

A mom not named "A Honkin Jobbie" turned to Facebook looking for a Maltese puppy up for adoption. Unfortunately, her son had changed her Facebook name to "A Honkin Jobbie," so as far as the internet knew, her name was "A Honkin Jobbie."

In case you're not Scottish, a "honkin jobbie" translates to "a huge poo poo."

And thanks to Facebook's name change rules (you can only change it once every 60 days), she might be stuck that way.

At least she's famous now—if only for her honkin pseudonym.

Dr. Pimple Popper barely has to work to pop out this huge pressurized lipoma on a mom's arm.

Yesterday, we brought you a video of Dr. Pimple Popper doing some heavy lifting with a patient's scarred, ancient back cysts. But today, she's back on easy street with a beautifully large, round lipoma just begging to pop out of a mom's arm. Of course, it doesn't hurt that Dr. Lee pumped this thing full of fluid before she opened it up—it was basically pressurized like a well-shaken can of coke.

Skip to 4:00 if you just want to see the extraction. And skip to 8:30 if you just want to see it pop out.

Are lipomas the gold standard of Dr. Lee's oeuvre? We think they may be.

The Wrigley Field marquee brilliantly trolled Cleveland on behalf of Dub Nation.

Just a few months after Cleveland snatched the NBA championship after the Golden State Warriors blew a 3-1 lead in the finals, the land of the Cleve were locked in similar series, but this time falling victim to the Chicago Cubs.

The hilarious people behind the iconic Wrigley Field marquee made sure that Indians fans didn't forget how the turntables have turned.

And the baseball-basketball crossover jokes kept coming.

Warriors fans were grateful to Wrigley for their sense of justice.

Those Flying the Dub had Dub Nation's backs.

Anthony Weiner checks into rehab for cyber sex addiction. Internet breathes sigh of relief.

0

Notorious dick pic sender Anthony Weiner is checking into a rehab center that specializes in treating cybersex addiction, the Daily Mail reports.It's about time. The unidentified facility reportedly has a specific program geared towards treating people with an addiction to cybersex and exhibitionism, as well as porn and anonymous sex. The center is segregated by gender and all electronic devices are banned, says the Daily Mail.

So, no e-mails allowed.

This seems like a good fit for the disgraced politician, who was back in the news earlier this fall for allegedly engaging in an online sexual relationship with a 15-year-old girl. This was a new low, even by Weiner standards.

This latest scandal also had wider repercussions. While investigating his sexting, the FBI found emails connected to Hillary Clinton on devices belonging to Weiner and his soon-to-be-ex-wife Huma Abedin, Clinton's top aide. This re-opened the FBI investigation into Clinton's emails, which may have tightened her race against Donald Trump in the polls. So basically, Weiner's behavior could screw over not only his family, career, and the women (and girls) involved, but the entire country.

This is the first time Weiner has sought inpatient treatment for his issues, according to the New York Post. After his first sexting scandal in 2011, he took two weeks’ paid leave from the House of Representatives for “professional treatment” and said he was working on becoming “a better husband and healthier person."

“A couple of days I worked with a therapist in Texas I was referred to—two days, twice, for a total of four days. Or, it might have been three,” he told The Post in 2013, "[but] I didn’t go to rehab anywhere.”

Let's hope Weiner finally gets the help he needs and also that we never see his name in the news again, ever.


Adorable baby rhino takes first bath with mom and can't even understand this joy.

If there's one time-tested way to make an adorable baby animal look even cuter, it's giving it a bath. Unlike baby humans, most other mammals understand from their first bath just how magnificent warm water can be. Such was the case with this three-week old eastern black rhino calf. The as-yet-unnamed calf was born on October 11 at Iowa's Blank Park Zoo (which bills itself as "Iowa's Wildest Adventure," and we believe it). The 80-lb. girl was given her first bath with her mother on Halloween, and the video came out so cute, the zoo knew it had viral gold on its hands.

Eastern black rhinos are extremely rare. This little newborn joins only 1,000 of her kind to be found in the wild or in captivity around the world. It's reassuring to know she'll be well taken care of at Blank Park, and she'll have all the baths she can handle.

Keira Knightley DGAF about getting her pre-pregnancy body back.

0
0

Keira Knightley knows how tough it can be to be a new mom. In an interview in the December issue of Harper's Bazaar UK, Knightley talks about gender inequalities, the struggle to find affordable childcare, and about embracing her new post-baby body after giving birth to her (now 1-year-old) daughter, Edie.

Knightley says she thinks it's "archaic" that paternity leave is so much shorter than maternity leave. "You need to be a family unit, not just have the guy there for two weeks and then go back to work and the mother left desperately trying to figure it out," she says.

Knightley goes onto say that it's "shocking" how "unbelievably expensive" childcare is in the UK. She points out that often, "there is no option for a woman to go back to work unless she's being paid really, really well and can afford full-time care before [her child can] get into nursery." Knightley says that she considers herself lucky to be able to afford good childcare.

And as far as getting that pre-baby body back, Knightley says she'd rather just embrace her body the way it looks now. She explains:

It’s a different body, as it should be, because it’s done an extraordinary thing…I thought I was going to go, “God, I’ve got to get back into shape.” I actually went completely the opposite. I went, “F**k that, I’m not putting that pressure on myself in any way.” So it’s taken me a long time to get back into my jeans. I’m nearly there. Not quite there, but nearly there…

Sounds like she's got the right attitude about this whole "motherhood" thing.

Alanis Morissette accessorizes breastfeeding selfie with perfectly placed 'I Voted' sticker.

Alanis Morissette is leading the charge on celebrity "I voted" selfies, submitting hers for internet approval nearly a week before election day.

Choosing a mail-in ballot, Morissette took advantage of that particular voting convenience so she could simultaneously breastfeed her four-month-old, Onyx.

#evenwhenyoucantleavethehouse

A photo posted by Alanis Morissette (@alanis) on


"Even when you can't leave the house," hashtagged Morissette, a Canadian who got her US citizenship in 2005.

If she can vote, breastfeed, and brag about it online, all days before the election, you really have no excuse not to get to the polls.

Vote!

(Self-congratulations to the author on writing this entire post without saying anything about irony.)
