'Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ is coming back and teases Kim coping after the robbery.

Back in September, Kim Kardashian was robbed at gunpoint in Paris by two masked men dressed as police officers. Kim was robbed of $10 million worth of jewelry, and was left gagged and begging for her life.

Soon after Khloe said that Kim was "not doing that well," and that the robbery was "a wake-up call to make a lot of life adjustments."

Well, it looks like we'll get to see those life adjustments unfold on E!

The network released a trailer for the upcoming season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, which was filmed in the aftermath of the crime. It's kind of very uncomfortable to watch...Kim raw and reeling from a real traumatic experience that would scare anyone away from the spotlight, and everything ever.

It feels like intruding...but I guess that's the #brand.

The teaser also teases Kim's reaction to Kanye's hospitalization as well.

2016 was tough.

Guy proposes to girlfriend near a waterfall, immediately regrets his decision.

If you're planning on asking your significant other to marry you in the near future, here's a proposal video that might make you consider popping the question in a safe, secluded, indoor location.

According to Refinery29, Isaiah Adams asked his girlfriend, Grace, to marry him at Cunningham Falls State Park in Maryland. They were surrounded by friends and family, who, lucky for us, captured the whole thing on video.

You see, Isaiah and Grace may have been standing just a little too close to the edge of the waterfall, and when he went to put the ring on her finger... well, just watch for yourself.

Yeah. He dropped the ring into a waterfall. And they never found it. Not exactly the dream proposal Grace was probably hoping for, but the two say they're still planning on getting married.

You know it's true love if she's willing to forgive him for ruining any chance of posting engagement ring Instagrams on the day they got engaged. Congrats to the happy couple!

I can't attend the office Happy Hour because I'm too honest when I drink.

Guy gets hilarious, messy revenge on stranger who sent him an unwanted dick pic.

The most basic response to receiving an unwanted dick pic is to forward it to all your friends, laugh about it, maybe get it printed on a mug. But Imgur user Syntax1985 has stepped up the unwanted dick pic game to a whole new level. After receiving the unsolicited image, he pretended to be a doctor and diagnosed the sender with a dick disease, sending him into a crazed panic spiral.

That's when things got messy.

Syntax1985 posted a screenshot of the conversation on Imgur where it has gone viral, because people who take down dick pic senders are the super heroes of our time.

Here's the story:

Revenge is so sweet.

The weirdest thing about this story, to me, is that Syntax1985, a proclaimed straight man, apparently gets random dick pics on a pretty regular basis.

"I'm a straight man, so when I receive a dick pic, I pretend to be a doctor and see if I can prank the sender," he explained in a post. "Usually it doesn't work, but every now and then I get a laugh out of it."

"When" he receives a dick pic?How many dick pics is this guy getting? Is his phone number 1-800-DICK-PLS? I'm confused. Is this normal? I hope not. Because I have gotten six dick pics in my life and that was five too many (one was okay).

So beware, folks with dicks. Sending pics of your junk to random (or incorrect) phone numbers could result in you having a crotch full of bread batter. And apparently "that stuff really sticks."

This mind-blowing connection between 'Friends' and 'Home Alone' was hiding in plain sight.

The eagle-eyed culture detectives at 22 Vision have just uncovered a connection between two beloved 90s institutions: Friends and Home Alone. If you've never noticed this, don't feel bad—it was deviously subtle, and also only came up in the final season of Friends. Only the most dedicated RossHeads were watching by that point. Check out this video to have your mind permanently blown.

If you don't feel like watching the video, here's the gist. (SPOILER ALERT) In season 10 of Friends, Chandler and Monica move into a house in the suburbs. If you watched this 2004 episode, you may have noticed that the view out their front door is eerily familiar. That's because the producers used left-over b-roll footage from Home Alone to fill out the windows. The view is what you would have seen looking out the window of Kevin McAllister's house.

This means that from a certain point of view, Chandler and Monica moved into the Home Alone house. It also implies their suburban getaway was located in Winnetka, Illinois, outside of Chicago. That would make for one serious commute for the Bings. But then again, nothing that happened in the last season of Friends made sense.

Everyone is obsessed with this drag queen's version of 'Sister Act' including Whoopi herself.

A British drag queen named Bella Berserk has gone viral for her brilliant lip sync rendition of the "I Will Follow Him" musical act from Sister Act. Hard to imagine anyone doing that song better than Whoopi Goldberg and a choir of backup singers in the movie, but Bella somehow pulled it off. With two puppets as her "backup singers."

The video has been shared over 70,000 times on Facebook and even made it to Whoopi herself. The Sister Act I and II star loved it so much she shared it, writing "nicely done my dear!!!!!!!!!!!!” in the caption.

That's a lot of exclamation points. But honestly, it's not even enough for how great this video is.

Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by Sarah Mead Bond on Sunday, December 25, 2016

The video has been watched over six million times already, and only one million of those views was by me in the past hour.

ICYMI, here's the original version. Also very, very good.

Nicely done my dears!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some genius printed North Carolina's bigoted bathroom law on toilet paper, where it belongs.

After North Carolina passed HB2, a law that stripped LGBT people of their protection from discrimination and specifically bans them from using public bathrooms with which they identify, the state has faced a lot of backlash. The deeply bigoted message it sends has caused many companies, including Paypal and Deutsche Bank, to pull out of business deals with the state, while local companies have been vocal about their disagreement with the law. One such company even decided to take things a step further, by making the law into something we can all literally shit on.

According to PinkNews, North Carolina ad agency McKinney took took trash talk to a new level and printed the anti-transgender bathroom law onto rolls of toilet paper, so that people everywhere can wipe their butts with the horrific, hateful law.

It's a smart, funny and poignant mode of activism from the inside. "We did this in support of Equality NC’s and Human Rights Campaign’s efforts to encourage North Carolina residents to petition their legislators at StopHB2.org," the agency said of the act. “Because we have men’s, women’s and everyone multi-stall bathrooms, and we don’t care which one(s) you feel most comfortable using. Because we value equality, diversity, inclusion and human rights."

Many residents and local companies have felt even more hopeless about North Carolina's increasing tension between Charlotte's legislators and its citizens, as they voted down a bill to repeal the bill on Dec. 21. And despite a Democrat governor replacing Republican governor Pat McCrory in 2017, steps were taken by the Republican legislature on Dec. 16 to strip the incoming governor of many of his powers.

McKinney's CEO, Brad Brinegar, has spoken out against HB2 on CNN and was an integral part of creating the letter that 103 CEOs signed calling for the law to be repealed. And while a new report has stated that North Carolina is no longer a "fully functioning democracy," maybe hope for a Democratic North Caroline isn't quite lost. Even if turning a law into toilet paper is mostly a symbolic act, it's a protest that shows us its people will continue the fight for what's right.

Woman uses lines from 'The Bachelor' on Tinder and strangely enough, it works.

Tinder is known as the bottom of the barrel in the dating app world. While other apps present users with a more culled list, like Coffee Meets Bagel, where you only get a certain number of matches per day, or Hinge, where you're limited to friends of friends through Facebook, Tinder is just a cesspool of people looking to get some. So, why bother trying? One woman found out that she could even pique guys' interest by cribbing lines from The Bachelor and using them as her pickup lines. And it went pretty well.

"I tried using the girls’ best out-of-the-limo pick up lines (or the most suitable version of them) on Tinder," says Bachelor enthusiast and TheTab writer Maggie Fischer of her exploits. Some of the lines really don't even make much sense taken out of context of the show, but the guys don't seem to care. While some of them are confused, they're still pretty into it. It leaves me wondering if any of these guys have ever successfully identified a red flag. Let's take a look at how it went.

Maggie: “I just wanted to let you know that before this I finished setting up my fantasy teams, but the only plays I want to make this season are for your heart”

Tinder response: “I applaud”

Way to go, Maggie! Let's take a look at another:

Maggie: “Before coming, all my girlfriends were like ‘No, he’s a complete piece of shit.’ But I don’t believe them, or anyone else who thinks that, otherwise I wouldn’t be here”

Tinder response: “Do your girlfriends know me? Lol.. Lets prove them wrong ;)”

He was confused and insulted, but he is ready to give this thing a try! This next guy is willing to look past hints of spy work to get deep into a text chat about what indie music she's been listening to.

Maggie: “So I’ve heard your past relationships have been lemons, but let’s see if we can make lemonade”

Tinder response: “Hahaha. You have a spy network in place for espionage, do you? 😉 I’ve been fortunate to have been involved with a host of wonderful women in healthy, nourishing, growth-positive relationships. I just vastly prefer “best” to “good”! So journalism, photography, and editing? I was a journo for quite a while both here and overseas. What got you into to? What indie you been listening to lately? What else shines about you??”

I mean, wow. No one has ever asked me what "shines" about me. These guys are loving Maggie's canned lines. This next one is great because it starts out immediately with a strange demand.

Maggie: “For me, trust is very important, so we’re going to do a trust fall.”

Tinder response: “You can fall on me as much as you want.”

What the frick does that even mean? Here is another one where the guy ignores several strange happenings (using French, calling herself "Vanessa"), because he is dying to talk about her taste in music. I do not understand what men hope to learn by talking with women about their music taste.

Maggie (translated from French): “My name is Vanessa. And, I’m very happy to be here with you. [In English]: You’ll have to come find me later inside to get the translation”

Tinder response: “Hi Maggie, I know a little bit of French haha…Who’s your favorite musician?”

Maggie can do no wrong, it seems. The next one is very cheesy, and he loves it, so prepare yourself accordingly:

Maggie: “I was wondering if I could listen to your heart. Typically, I ask my patients to take their shirts off”

Tinder response: “That can work out. I don’t really like wearing a shirt anyways…Do you moonlight as a doctor or a heart whisperer?”

Tinder has been around long enough that the idea of using the insanity you experience on it as fodder for stories is a pretty tired trope by now. And yet these guys still engage with Maggie's insanity. It's mind-boggling! Only one guy seemed to be suspicious of her "journalistic" endeavors. I hope she goes on a date with him because he seems to be the smartest of them all:

Maggie: “I’ve watched your journey. You’ve been through a lot, and I really give it to you. You have some balls. And, so do I”

Tinder response: “What is that…am i gonna be on ur tumblr now or something”

Dave Chappelle and John Mayer covering Nirvana and Tom Petty will help you remember simpler times.

John Mayer was performing a secret solo show at The Hotel Café in Los Angeles on Wednesday night when comedian Dave Chappelle crashed the intimate event and decided to join Mayer for some classic tunes, Billboard reports. The two performers have collaborated previously on a comedy video called "Black People Love John Mayer" and apparently also enjoy playing hits from the early 90's together. Together, the duo played 1992 Nirvana hit "Come As You Are," which the audience enthusiastically sang along to, as well as a stripped down version of Tom Petty's "Free Fallin'," a staple of Mayer's earlier repertoire.

Apparently, this isn't the first time Mayer and Chappelle have practiced their musical routine, either. Mayer told the crowd that the two of them frequently perform their act "in different cities until about five in the morning." The typical format is Chappelle making Mayer play his favorite songs from the 1980s.

Y'all they did free falling together too 😭 #JohnMayer overload today because last night was a dream 🌙

A video posted by Kenzie Doyle (@kenzdoyle) on

One lucky attendee of the show summarized his favorite moment of the night, when Chappelle spoke about seeing Prince for the last time, at the White House.

Dave Chappelle jumped on stage and messed around w John Mayer for a good 30 minutes. The highlight was when he told the story of his last time hanging with Prince @ the White House. He said that Prince and Stevie Wonder got on the same Piano and played songs together. He said that he missed Prince's laugh.

Both Mayer and Chappelle are two performers who had big breaks in the early 2000s, but have been largely quiet in recent years. Coming off a period of touring with The Dead, Mayer is now set to release a new album, The Search For Everything, which will be released throughout 2017 in waves (lest we forget that John Mayer is a tortured artist). Chappelle is currently working on recording his first comedy special in over a decade, which will air on Netflix. Fame is hard. 2017 is hard. Sometimes it's nice to revel in simpler times, back before anyone had heard of Taylor Swift.

Michelle Obama's tearful final speech will give you hope for the future of our country.

Michelle Obama gave her final speech on Friday, fighting back tears to deliver a message of hope that will hopefully carry us through the next four years of the Trump presidency. The occasion, honoring the 2017 School Counselor of the Year, was a fitting one, as the First Lady spent her eight years in the White House working tirelessly to improve the U.S.'s public education system with various initiatives. And Obama had an inspiring message to send out to all the young people in the country who were watching.

"If your family doesn't have much money, I want you to remember that plenty of folks, including me and my husband, started out with very little," the First Lady said. "But with a lot of hard work and a good education anything is possible, even becoming President. That's what the American dream is all about."

The speech sent a message of deep gratitude for the tireless and under-appreciated work that educators do. "I want to close today by simply saying thank you," Obama said, through tears. "Thank you for everything you do for our kids, and for our country. Being your First Lady has been the greatest honor of my life, and I hope I've made you proud."

Obama recognized that it's often all too easy to get bogged down by the frustrations and setbacks of daily work, and too tempting to think our efforts won't make a difference. But she raised up that hard work as the essential product of hope, challenging all of us to see our daily lives as an opportunity to put our wildest dreams in motion: "That is what moves this country forward every day: our hope for the future, and the hard work that hope inspires."

Mike Tyson will train Chris Brown for celebrity boxing match against Soulja Boy, coached by Floyd Mayweather Jr.

With $100,000 riding on a bizarre boxing match he instigated between Soulja Boy and Chris Brown, 50 Cent isn't taking any chances. After betting that much on Brown with longtime rival and former boxing champ Floyd Mayweather Jr., Mayweather announced he'd be training Soulja to improve his own odds, forcing Fiddy to play the ultimate trump card: calling in Mike Tyson to train Brown.

In an Instagram video later retweeted by an overawed Brown, 50 Cent had a phone conversation with the notoriously volatile Tyson, saying, "Listen Mike, they say Floyd’s going to be training Soulja Boy so I said I’ve gotta get Mike Tyson to train Chris Brown." The former heavyweight champ, convicted felon, and known ear-biter replied, "Yeah, Soulja Boy’s gonna get fucked up!"

👀

A video posted by 1 YOU ❤️ 2 HATE (@chrisbrownofficial) on

Brown has already taunted Soulja Boy with a Photoshop of himself standing over the rapper's unconscious body in a boxing ring, of course, and has said that he's given up sex, drinking, and smoking to get fit for the bout. Soulja, meanwhile, has said that he's inviting Rihanna, who allegedly turned to him for support after Brown assaulted her in 2009. He claims that this was the real starting point of their social-media-beef-turned-boxing-challenge, not the affections of model Karrueche Tran, in whose comments to two had originally been sparring.

The real winner so far, though, has been the perennially broke hustler 50 Cent, who is already working on inciting another real-life rapper fight, this one between 21 Savage and 22 Savage, presumably for the rights to the name.

UP DATE, BIG FIGHT NEWS, we might have to do this at the BX FIGHT CLUB.

Desperate people are trying to convince themselves Hillary Clinton will run for Mayor of NYC.

The latest news in people refusing to leave Hillary Clinton alone is that they've started a rumor about her running for Mayor of New York City.

Is it really so hard for us to let this woman live? Clinton just spent basically her entire life preparing for an election that she lost to one of the most under-prepared, bigoted human beings to ever run. And to make matters worse, she won the popular vote by more than 2 million. And now we're already expecting her to pull herself back together and run for Mayor of the biggest city in the country? Everyone relax.

The rumor started a few weeks ago, and actually originated with a right-wing website that maybe is looking for more opportunities to sling hate her direction, so they can feel alive. Now, it's being discussed more publicly, the New York Times reports. "I heard it three times in the two days I was on the Hill," said Bradley Tusk, a former top aide to Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg.

And while Tusk believes she would win if she ran in a race against current New York Mayor Bill de Blasio, he doesn't think she's going to. "The reality is that she’s not going to, and all it does is further delay the thinking and plans of people who actually could run and win." What Tusk is basically saying, is that people should quit their delusional thinking and focus on actual ways to achieve social and political good that are feasible. For all we know, Clinton is still hiding in the woods.

Besides, she's probably so tired that all she wants to do is lay in bed, apply layers of expensive face masks, order specialty sushi rolls, and watch Netflix for at least another year before even thinking about stepping back into the public eye. The Times seemed to confirm that fact: "People close to Mrs. Clinton said that she had not given much thought to what she would do next, but that she was almost certainly not interested in being mayor."

Crazy how the answer to these delusional thoughts can be found in the lyrics to that crappy song by Passengers:

"...and you let her go."


Carrie Fisher's fabulous urn is literally a giant Prozac pill, as if you expected anything less.

In the days following the sudden, shocking death of iconic actress and unapologetic firebrand Carrie Fisher, tributes have poured in from friends, fans, and family. But almost all pale in comparison to the revelation of the beloved comedienne's urn, which is, in fact, an enormous Prozac pill.

Carrie's brother Todd Fisher was seen carrying the unusual crematory receptacle at a private memorial for their mother, actress Debbie Reynolds, who passed away just a day after Fisher. People recognized it immediately.

"Carrie's favorite possession was a giant Prozac pill that she bought many years ago. A big pill," Todd explained to Entertainment Tonight. "She loved it, and it was in her house, and Billie and I felt it was where she'd want to be." He added, "We couldn't find anything appropriate. Carrie would like that. It was her favorite thing, and so that's how you do it. And so they're together, and they will be together here and in heaven, and we're OK with that."

Fisher, who struggled with bipolar disorder, addiction, and more, becoming a major mental health advocate in the process, was clearly never without a sense of humor about the challenges she faced—and the impulse to joke about them helped to remove some of their stigma. It's only fitting for us to remember that.

Watching this man rescue a sparrow frozen to a fence will melt even the iciest of hearts.

We humans love to complain about the agonies of each brutal midwinter: the frigid temperatures, the piles of ice and snow, the seeming impossibility of going out to meet your friends anywhere. But the rest of nature has to cope with this garbage season absent any mitigating factors like, say, indoor heating.

Which is to say, when an animal runs up against a very January problem, it's nice if we can lend a hand. Such was the case for Idaho resident Nelson Wilson, who on New Year's Day encountered an unlucky little bird: While feeding his horses, he "noticed a solitary sparrow perched upon the steel fence near the water tank," he wrote on YouTube. "The tank is heated to keep it from freezing. It is not uncommon for birds to drink from the heated tank. Apparently this unfortunate bird had gotten its feet wet and, while making its exit, had become frozen to the fence in the prevailing near zero Idaho temperatures."

With all the gentleness of a Disney Princess, Wilson warmed the frightened bird in his palm and used hot breaths to melt the ice around its feet. In the end, the sparrow was freed and chirped a happy thank-you as it zoomed away.

So, how about you? Have you freed any creatures from winter's icy grip today?

Alec Baldwin just keeps trolling Trump, this time with a Russian 'Make America Great Again' hat.

He's wearing his heart on his sleeve—or his hat, rather.

With his skewering of Donald Trump on Saturday Night Live—and promises to retire the impression if the president-elect finally releases his tax returns—Alec Baldwin has emerged as the most vital troll of the incoming administration. And with less than two weeks to go before Trump's inauguration (at which countless musician have refused to perform), he's definitely not letting up.

Just hours after the Office of the Director of National Intelligence released a report stating that Trump was wrong in denying Russia's efforts to undermine the U.S. presidential election, and that Vladimir Putin ordered exactly such an influence campaign, Baldwin posted an Instagram selfie in which he modeled a red hat bearing the familiar slogan "Make America Great Again"—in Russian.

Trump, meanwhile, embarked on a defensive tweetstorm about the hacking report, falsely claiming that the Republican National Committee was, unlike the DNC, never hacked because it had a stronger defense. (In reality, Russians hacked the RNC as well but simply decided to sit on the information in hopes of helping Trump's chances.) He also promised a better relationship with Russia.

Interestingly, this was the first time Trump himself—rather than his assistants—had tweeted since he mocked the low ratings for the new season of Celebrity Apprentice, now hosted by former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.

And Trump couldn't even land that punch without Schwarzenegger decking him.

It's almost as if no one told Trump that the president tends to get criticized a lot?

David Blaine accidentally shot himself in the mouth, which seems like a typical David Blaine move.

Ever have one of those moments when you attempt to pull the cord on the trigger of a .22-caliber rifle aimed at your head and catch the bullet with a metal cup held in your mouth and think, for a split second, that you've just killed yourself?

Because David Blaine has.

Yes, when he's not barfing up frogs as a party trick to gross out Dave Chappelle, Steph Curry, and Drake, Blaine is attempting stunts like the one described above. In fact, he's been doing the "bullet catch" since 2010, and wants to include it in his upcoming world tour. The problem is, his friends won't help him perform the trick anymore, and the last time he tried it solo, as revealed in the Beyond Magic special that aired Friday night, he almost died in front of 20,000 people at Las Vegas' MGM Grand Garden Arena. You know, normal magic stuff.

What happened, apparently, is that Blaine's troublesome mouth guard shattered, causing the metal cup to rocket into the back of his throat. "I was sure the bullet went right through my head and that I was dead," Blaine recounted in narrating the incident. "Suddenly I became aware of the pain and it brought me back. At that moment I realized that the mouth guard had shattered again, and I was alive." Afterward, doctors confirmed that he had lacerated his throat.

Even so, Blaine has vowed to keep doing the bullet catch, which makes you wonder if this "accident" wasn't a deliberate effort to stir up some hype. Because that would be the greatest illusion of all.
