16 ways to feel like a kid again.

by Dan Abromowitz

There's no better time than summer for reconnecting with those carefree sun-soaked days of childhood. Take a break from the pressures of adult life and feel like a kid again with these easy tips:

1. Sit in the back of a car for a few hours. You're not going anywhere, but those family road trips were never about the destination. Think about what you've lost, and whether you ever knew it when you had it.

2. Do a cannonball! As you leap, will against the weight the Earth assigns your body, your sprawling body, once so clean and buoyant, buoyed by potential, weightlessly upright. As you fall, realize, again, just how powerless you are.

3. Show up at your old summer camp and ask everyone if they remember you. Here's where you carved your initials in the soft cabin wood, thin and tremulous. Here the boats beat against the dock as they always have. Here the trees are not so much taller. All the same, here, you are a ghost.

4. See how far up your leg you can fit your childhood bathing suit. Every year, another inch lost. Every year, another death, lived.

5. Tremble with the terrible heat of your sexuality. You were a knife blade, a swamp creature, a lightning bolt. You were a rabid dog, a burrowing maggot, a skipping CD. You were a springloaded deathtrap, a virus, a sinkhole. You were the child of God gone mad, bloated with chemical, clawing your way back to heaven. What are you now?

6. Imbue your clothes with the bready scent of Coppertone Sport. This was safety, once. Now, like so much else, it's just another poison; not the quick death of your fantasy tales, but true poison, slow and bitter, corroding and eroding, hurrying on the creeping black.

7. Piss in the kiddie pool. Consume, expel. Consume, expel. Consume, expel. Balance the ledger and dust is all that's left. The shriek of the lifeguard's whistle, the wails of the children, the robust arc of your urine, these quaver and melt as all things must, leaving in time nothing so much as a ripple.

8. Hide. Don't breathe. Don't be. They are searching.

9. Write in cursive. This arcane scrawl came with the promise of power. It was the script in which you would gouge your hidden name into the palm of Atlas. They lied, of course.

10. Bike to the gulch and see if there's a body there. You used to love biking to the gulch until you found that nude corpse, but nothing's gonna bring those sunsoaked days of yore rushing back faster than stumbling onto another. What does the gulch remember? What will you forget?

11. Have a popsicle. It's hot out there!

12. Get lost in a mall. They will look for you in Teavana. They will look for you in the Panda Express. They will look for you in Oshkosh B'gosh. They will look for you in Sam Goody. They will look for you in Yankee Candle. They will look for you from the big Macy's at one end to the big Bed Bath & Beyond at the other. But they will find you by the fountain, wishing.

13. Live in terror and awe of authority. You are taller now, but you can be small again. You are greater now, but you can be diminished. Nothing in this world cannot be taken from you.

14. Demand name brand consumer goods. Scream with need, howl with desire, cry with lust, holler your ancestral claim to Hasbro and Mattel, Kellogg and General Mills. And then buy yourself them, because you have money now.

15. Ignore the news. The world is burning, and here you sit. Pull the covers over your head and pray for the restoration of the solipsism you'd worked so hard to shed.

16. Somehow build a snowman. This would be very impressive in the summertime.

At this point there isn't a moment of human experience that isn't photographed and instantly uploaded to Facebook for all to share. Life is contained in the Facebook photo albums now, so when you comment on a Facebook photo you're essentially commenting on life itself.

Crazy dude bites a man's finger off at Jay Z and Beyonce concert.

If I can't touch her, then you can't either. (via Getty Images)

A vicious attack erupted at the Beyonce and Jay-Z concert at the Rose Bowl last night in Pasadena, CA. It had nothing to do with Solange.

Roberto Alcaraz-Garnica, 25, of San Diego was among 55,000 fans attending the Beyonce and Jay-Z concert Sunday night, but he was the only one to attempt sexual assault and then follow it up with some really weird shit. According to the Pasadena Star News, Alcaraz-Garnica groped a woman in her 20's, and when the women's boyfriends confronted the alleged attacker, a fight ensued, and the groper bit the tip of the boyfriend's finger off. 

Of course an alleged sexual assailant would go for just the tip. 

Gropey Finger-Biter was arrested for "sexual battery and mayhem, legally defined as disabling or disfiguring a part of a victim’s body" according to police and Los Angeles County booking records.

John Oliver destroys the practice of advertising disguised as news.

I chose this screenshot for the pretty girl. I'm still more ethical than The Atlantic.

HBO'sLast Week Tonight with John Oliver has been on the air for a few months now, and its in-depth takedowns of various crappy parts of American life have become a Monday morning blog staple. Hopefully, that won't change with this segment attacking the (not at all) proud tradition of disguising advertising as news stories. He highlights BuzzFeed as the masters of this genre, although they're only half-news. The real condemnation goes to the old-line news outlets that used to have strict rules about not mixing editorial and business, which used to be known as the "separation of church and state." By the way, you're really gonna want a Diet Coke after this, and also Ebola:

To be fair, as he points out, the reason this is happening is that consumers (you and me) refuse to pay for newspapers or sign up for their online paywalls. I mean, who reads more than 10 New York Times articles a month? Why would you possibly need more news than one article every three days? Absurd.

By the way, we're not a news site, so you may address your inquiries to advertising@someecards.com without feeling like you're destroying the remnants of America's journalistic traditions. We never had any to begin with.

Concerned idiots kept calling 911 when Facebook went down.

Say it again slowly and clearly, what happened to Facebook?

Many of us remember the horrors of 8/1/14, the day Facebook went down for less than half an hour. A day that lives in infamy. 

I still remember exactly what I was doing. I was on Facebook, reading through my timeline, totally unaware that new statuses and puppy pics would not be added to the top of my feed. I was clueless for the first five minutes. 

That's when I got an email from my colleague, Bob Powers, saying that he thought Facebook might be down. I opened FB in a new tab to check: he was right.

Everyone responds to tragedy differently. I continued to read through my old timeline as though nothing had happened, burying my head in a sand of old couples' photos and statuses about breakfast. Bob reacted by looking outside himself, to chronicle the world's reaction to loss at large. 

And for some devastated people in Los Angeles, the only thing they could think to do was call 911. Lots of people called 911. 

Enough people called, in fact, that Sgt. Burton Brink of La Crescenta went to Twitter (backup Facebook) to handle their incoming concerns.

You don't know when Facebook will be back up? What the hell is 911 for?  

Pfft. Cops only wanting tax-paying citizens to call in for real emergencies. 

Next think you know, they'll start arresting us if we call them to complain about the quality of our drugs

Justin Bieber, continuing his reign of Instagram terror, sexually taunts the Kardashian/Jenner clan.

[Click image to enlarge]

Justin Bieber wants to antagonize every celebrity that crosses his path. Whether they're top of the A-list or bottom of the D-list, he's not leaving Ibiza until everyone he sees wants to finish the job that Orlando Bloom started.

Last night, he turned his aim at the Kardashian-Jenner conglomerate of celebu-borgs when he pressed his Brazilian prostitute infected mid-section against the hind-quarters of Mama Kris Jenner for the above Instagram snap. Not content to let the image speak for itself, Justin tagged daughters Kendall and Kylie Jenner in the post with the classy note, "who's your daddy".


Tool.

While, it's true, Bruce Jenner would probably spend millions in eye-lid tucks to get his face to look like Justin's, this is starting to get old fast. Does Bieber have any artillery not of the "I fucked something of yours" caliber? The Bloom-Bieber "Rumble In Ibiza" was by all accounts instigated by Justin taunting Orlando about his liaison with Miranda Kerr, and now he's telling the Jenner family deep bench, "Did your mom last night." 

Justin Bieber is basically just a mess of walking, talking, men's room stall graffiti. While we do not endorse violence, if anyone in Ibiza this weekend feels capable of throwing a punch that can connect, it'd probably be a real career boost for you. Talk to your management and see if it's the right move.

Imposter!

The discovery of the self is a kind of death. A being's sense of one-ness with the world is quickly murdered, and boundary walls rise up around the persona. Narcissism is born and begins to steer one's every thought and action. "I" is as lonely a word as any in the language.

This dog gets it.

This time-lapse of a mom trying to put twin boys to bed is exhaustingly funny.

"We're thirsty. Also, the sun is still shining."

Henriette Jonassen was having trouble putting her twin boys to bed due to the long summer days in Norway, so she tried putting them in different rooms, which one of her friends had suggested. Jonassen had her doubts, so she decided to film the experiment in order to show her friend the results.

Turns out, the boys agreed that it was a terrible idea. So much so, that they shared their thoughts on the matter every several seconds.

I don't know how much trouble she was having with the boys in the same room, but unless they were starting fires and tattooing each other, it's hard to imagine it being any worse.

When she posted the time-lapse video to her Facebook wall, people started sharing it, and it quickly went viral, getting over 600,000 views in a week. Most people found it funny. Others decided to be hurtful dicks, calling Jonassen a terrible mother and suggesting she try hitting her kids. A point she addressed on her blog:

"I live in Norway, and if we hit our kids we lose them. Thank god for that! I live in a peaceful country with low crime, and I love it here. Many of the people commenting on my youtube video said that they are spanking/hitting their children. They also said that they were spanked in their childhood, and that it didn’t affect them. Well, is that really true? It make them hurt their own children, because they grew up that way themselves. It’s wrong. But go ahead, treat your children however you want, that’s not my concern.

Jonassen says the boys are now back to "sleeping" in the same room, and both usually wind up in her bed at some point in the night. She says she's fine with that, which is good, because it looks like she doesn't have much of a choice.

Get off my lawn: a guy hoses down his drunk neighbor to get him to leave his property.

It leaves the yard with sunburnt skin, or else it gets the hose again.

Your neighbor is drunk, shirtless, and on your property again. Do you:

A) Say, "Who cares? I'll just go back inside and mind my business."

B) Grab a six pack and move the party to another neighbor's yard. 

C) Grab the hose and handle things Buffalo Bill style.

If you chose C, congrats! You are just like Ronak Kallianpur, whose neighbor chose his lawn to quietly protest sobriety. 

It's mesmerizing to watch as the drunk barely acknowledges the spray. It's like watching someone hose Gandhi himself, if Gandhi was the kind of drunk to call out the fact that it was the guy's mom's lawn. 

I wouldn't expect anything less from a guy who can calmly walk around with a nail in his head.

Hotel charges $500 fine for bad reviews on Yelp—and it's even worse than it sounds.

They insist on using the USGH abbreviation all the time, even though it sounds
like someone with a lisp saying "ugh." (via Facebook)

The Union Street Guest House in the town of Hudson in upstate New York rests in the beautiful Hudson River Valley, and is an amazing spot to host your wedding. If you or any of your wedding guests say otherwise, they will fine the living crap out of you, to the tune of $500 (they also require 15 days notice for any room cancellations, so if you were planning on going there soon, it's too late to change your mind now). Here's what it says on their website (full text at bottom):


In short, if anyone doesn't like our hotel, it's because they're morons. (via USGH)

No, that is not an exaggeration. If anyone in your wedding party (the bride and groom are part of the wedding party, right?) or any of your wedding guests posts a negative review online, they will charge your credit card half a grand. They're not monsters, though, just extortionists: they'll refund the fine if you or your friends delete the negative review. 


This is a photo of someone losing a lot of money. (via USGH)

I actually have a lot of good things to say about the region this hotel is located it, with its historical mansions and homes of painters, as well as the vistas of the Hudson River that inspired the Hudson River School of American landscape painting. I don't have anything to say about this hotel, though, primarily because I don't have $500 to spend on online justice. Here's the full text of their policy:

Please know that despite the fact that wedding couples love Hudson and our Inn, your friends and families may not. This is due to the fact that your guests may not understand what we offer - therefore we expect you to explain that to them. USGH & Hudson are historic. The buildings here are old (but restored). Our bathrooms and kitchens are designed to look old in an artistic "vintage" way. Our furniture is mostly hip, period furniture that you would see in many design magazines. (although comfortable and functional - obviously all beds are brand new) If your guests are looking for a Marriott type hotel they may not like it here.
Therefore: If you have booked the Inn for a wedding or other type of event anywhere in the region and given us a deposit of any kind for guests to stay at USGH there will be a $500 fine that will be deducted from your deposit for every negative review of USGH placed on any internet site by anyone in your party and/or attending your wedding or event If you stay here to attend a wedding anywhere in the area and leave us a negative review on any internet site you agree to a $500. fine for each negative review. (Please NOTE we will not charge this fee &/or will refund this fee once the review is taken down). Also, please note that we only request this of wedding parties and for the reasons explained above. 

I will say one positive thing: they apparently have dogs in the lobby.


They also sic the dogs on people who post bad reviews. (via Facebook)

Wow, for once, a bae actually caught someone slippin. (via Instagram)

Kimye have proved that they are #1, at least among Kim Kardashian marriages.* They just hit an astounding 73 days of nuptial bliss, a full 24 hours longer than Kim's wedding to NBA player and semi-sentient rock-creature Kris Humphries. That's 1.4% more marriage and counting. Just in case you forgot the original wedding, here it is:

That ended so quickly, after selling so much advertising, that comedian Rob Delaney sued the Kardashians for fraud. Not Kimye, though. They're as real as...well as real as Kim and Kanye can be.

5 Things You Should At Least Pretend To Know Today - August 4, 2014

1. Disney Movie About Kidnapped Orphan Who Befriends Talking Raccoon Breaks August Box Office Records

Disney and Marvel Studios's gamble on a big budget, weirdo space opera filled with comic book characters no one's ever heard of ended up paying off, as Guardians of the Galaxy broke August box office records by earning $94.3 million in its domestic opening weekend and propelling its soundtrack full of songs everybody already has to the top of iTunes and Amazon's charts.


2. House GOP Committee Finds No Wrongdoing In Benghazi, Meaning House GOP Will Soon Be Investigating House GOP

The Republican House Intelligence Committee is apparently finally prepared to release the long-awaited report on the Benghazi scandal, including detailed descriptions of all the malfeasance perpetrated by President Barack Obama and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Unfortunately, according to panel member and Democrat Rep. Mike Thompson, the report "confirms that no one was deliberately misled, no military assets were withheld and no stand-down order (to U.S. forces) was given." Outrageous! How dare there be no wrongdoing?! This report is essentially the Benghazi of Benghazi reports.


3. Sandra Bullock Is This Year's Highest-Earning Actor Who Doesn't Have Boy Parts 

According to Forbes Magazine, Sandra Bullock—the Academy Award nominated star of the critically acclaimed sci-fi hit Gravity—was the highest-earning Hollywood actress from June 2013 to June 2014, earning $51 million and beating the Jennifers, Lawrence and Aniston, by $17 million and $20 million respectively. This makes her the third-highest-earning actor overall, coming in below Robert Downey, Jr. and Duane "The Rock" Johnson.


4. Is America Ready For A Female Ghostbuster Team?

If a new rumor that's been buzzing around the Hollywood media is true, the new Ghostbusters movie, which nobody's really been all that excited about, might have actually just gotten a tiny bit interesting. Apparently, Bridesmaids and The Heat director Paul Feig might be helming the project with an all-female cast of paranormal exterminators. No word on who might be cast in such a film, but, considering her recent history with Feig, Melissa McCarthy seems like a pretty safe bet.
