This deer was hit by a cop car, did a crazy flip, and ran away OK.

0
0

A Kentucky cop hit a deer and the dashcam footage is crazy, mainly because the deer looks like it's doing a crazy skateboard trick but instead of using a skateboard it's using its own body. The video was posted by the official Kenton County Police Department Facebook, where it has received over 1.4 million views and 36,000 shares. Here's the original post:

https://www.facebook.com/KentonCountyPolice/videos/10153318454494716/

And here's the police department's description of the events, with an accompanying photo of the minor damage to the car:

Over the weekend, Officer Pittaluga encountered a large deer while driving on Decoursey Pike through Visalia. [...]  Our officer was unharmed but the cruiser did sustain some damage. As for the deer, he appeared to brush off the incident before quickly running away into the woods.

This still does not explain why the deer flipped like that.

And of course, they couldn't post it without using it to teach a lesson about safe driving—

We think this video is a pretty good training video on how to react when a four-legged furry friend attempts to abruptly cross your path. Officer Pittaluga applied his brakes and steered away from the deer in a controlled manner. 

—in addition to seizing the opportunity to make some lame Santa jokes:

We did place a call to Santa just to be sure this deer didn't belong to him (we would hate to end up on the naughty list). He was quick to point out that he employs reindeer and that, although this deer did appear to fly, it was not a reindeer (we still aren't clear whether we will be making the nice list or not).

So lame. Not en-deer-ing at all. 

Instagram released the 10 most-liked pictures of 2015 and there's a disturbing pattern.

Instagram just released their 10 most-liked posts of the year, and the results are boring as hell. Nothing but mega wealthy attractive female celebrities, so don't get excited thinking your veggie frittata from brunch a month ago made the list. It didn't. Nothing interesting did—it's mostly one superstar pop princess and her ridiculously photogenic cat. Relive the highlights of 2015 on Instagram with a look back at the top 10 most liked posts and just think about what you've done:

10. Taylor Swift and her cat are so hot right meow.

https://www.instagram.com/p/z3MfSjDvN5/?taken-by=taylorswift

9. Kendal Jenner got 20 million followers, and 18 million of them did not like this post.

https://www.instagram.com/p/zfsMLwDo63/?taken-by=kendalljenner

8. Here's T-Swift and her cat again. Wow, you guys clearly have a type.

https://www.instagram.com/p/7WY679jvC3/?taken-by=taylorswift

7. Selena Gomez wearing a sweatshirt. Didn't see that one coming.

https://www.instagram.com/p/2o6AAAOjIH/?taken-by=selenagomez

6. Oh hey, here's something you don't see every day, Taylor Swift and her cat! Judging by its face, it must be looking at this list.

https://www.instagram.com/p/8bXWVHjvGG/?taken-by=taylorswift

5. Beyonce and Blue Ivy doing a Taylor Swift and her cat impression.

https://www.instagram.com/p/6YXSL3Pw_I/?taken-by=beyonce

4. Taylor Swift with Calvin Harris. Someone should Photoshop a cat on this dude's head. 

https://www.instagram.com/p/4sU2r9jvJG/?taken-by=taylorswift

3. The one where Kylie Jenner showed off her high school diploma and everyone was so impressed. (Big deal, Taylor Swift's cat is a doctor.)

https://www.instagram.com/p/5gPfhDHGvn/?taken-by=kyliejenner

2. Swift gets a gift. If she would've thought of that sweet rhyme (or included her cat) this pic would probably be at #1.

https://www.instagram.com/p/7OZIdGDvFT/?taken-by=taylorswift

And coming in at number ONE, with over 3 million likes... Kendall Jenner's cray cray hair. Wow, who even cares.

https://www.instagram.com/p/3H0-Yqjo7u/?taken-by=kendalljenner

You guys know there are other things on Instagram besides T-Swift and her cat, right? You could've clicked "like" on a lot of things, like some hunks?

https://www.instagram.com/p/3xGVeXgCMl/?taken-by=channingtatum

Or a raccoon hugging a dog?

https://www.instagram.com/p/-yrhjggzbZ/?taken-by=pumpkintheraccoon

Or some Ryan Gosling granny panties?

https://www.instagram.com/p/9sEbT1kwU-/?tagged=ryangoslingunderwear

Or even a Christmas toilet just to spice things up? 

https://www.instagram.com/p/-xmd1UNcl0/?tagged=santatoilet

But no, you just had to make us post more pics of T-Swift and the Jenners, didn't you? Ugh. Please try harder in 2016.

A one-word error made this the worst Black Friday ad ever.

0
0

Singapore-based online fashion retailer SuperGurl has apologized after a button on their mobile site said "rape us now" instead of "rate us now." If that weren't bad enough, the image in the ad featured a young woman with her arms above her head. Not surprisingly, the mistake was blamed on a graphic designer.

https://twitter.com/RiNNy3Honey/status/671197758796140544?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

SuperGurl issued an immediate apology after the error was discovered:

https://www.instagram.com/p/-tQKRLQmAR/?taken-by=supergurl

I am writing this to express our sincerest apologies pertaining to our insensitive action and the choice of word – rape during our ‘Black Friday’ sale. 
We do not mean for it to be offensive to anyone, and I extend my sincerest apology for the lack of a better word.
As the director of the company, I have failed to review my Graphic Designer’s work before approving the image to be displayed on our site. I hereby acknowledge that we have made a mistake, and that our caption does not advocate the right values to the young women community today.

Having regretted for what we have done, the team at Supergurl will definitely be more careful with what we will put up in future as this is also a lesson learnt for us.

This is an honest mistake that we have made on our side, and we do know that it is indefensible. 
We hope that the public will accept our apology for what we have done wrong.

Sincerely,
Jordus Lim
Creative Director

This apology makes it unclear whether a designer accidentally hit the "p" button instead of the "t" button, especially since he calls it both a "choice" and a "mistake." So was it a mistake, a desperate attempt to stir up some free press, or the work of a vigilante designer? We'll probably never know. 

Iggy Azalea broke her Twitter hiatus to reply to Erykah Badu’s burn and give a horse update.

Iggy Azalea has returned to Twitter, and sadly not just to share White Chicks gifs and have funny exchanges with Demi Lovato. After a month off of tweeting, she released a string of messages that included a response to Erykah Badu's recent criticism of Azalea's work.

At the Soul Train Awards over the weekend, host Badu called Azalea's music "definitely not rap." Apparently she wasn't impressed with the rhyming of "Mary-Kate and Ashley" with "I'm ready if you ask me" in Azalea's verse of that Demi Lovato song. Azalea tweeted what was pretty clearly a reply: "We are days from 2016, but i came online today and saw its still cool to try and discredit my 2014 accomplishments. LOL, fucking hell. Seems exhausting. Anyway - Ive been enjoying the holiday season and i hope you all have too."

https://twitter.com/IGGYAZALEA/status/671793014855958528https://twitter.com/IGGYAZALEA/status/671793548073701376

Then she gave some updates about her new album and about one of her horses, who apparently is sick. Also, it seems like she has a lot of horses. Now that's the kind of bizarre and interesting detail that could get one interested in Iggy Azalea again.

https://twitter.com/IGGYAZALEA/status/671802007296978944https://twitter.com/IGGYAZALEA/status/671802283915513856https://twitter.com/IGGYAZALEA/status/671802664242446336

Let's hope that Iggy's horse feels better and that she does some better songs!

A guy lived a sitcom when he accidentally set up dates with two best friends on the same night.

TIFU stands for Today I F*cked Up, and it's a place on Reddit where people share crazy stories, or just very sad stories, of ways they may have made their lives more f*cked up. This story comes from user Valleygoat, who writes that he lived a sitcom trope from the nineties by making a date with two girls for the same evening—girls who just happen to be best friends! *record scratch*

"We'll be right back after a message from our sponsor."

He writes:

I messaged both "Alice", and "Stacy" this Sunday, on OKCupid. I am a sad lonely man, and I need a ladyfriend. They both happened to respond. Awesome! I set up the date with "Stacy" first. We set it for this Friday, around 415 for coffee. Cool. Now, if any of you have ever dated online before, you know how often flakes, cancels, fades, and general bullshit happens.

So as I was still talking to Stacy, I set up a date with Alice. Based on my talking with Stacy, she seemed somewhat reserved and timid, and it felt like a "1-2 hour" coffee date kind of thing. So I figured I had time on Friday night to go out with Alice. Alice and I play some rocket league, set up a date Friday night, everything is groovy.

Fast forward to today. I talked to both Stacy and Alice on/off until today. About 3 hours ago, I receive this message from Stacy on OKCupid: "Oh my god this is too funny. You should che-"

At this point, I have no idea what the fuck is going on. Then I got a text from Alice..."-ck your phone"

HOW IN THE ACTUAL FUCK, OUT OF ALL THE WOMEN IN THE WORLD DO I HAPPEN TO PICK 2 WOMEN THAT ARE BEST FRIENDS, MEET EACH OTHER TUESDAY NIGHT AND ASK EACH OTHER ABOUT THEIR FUCKING DATES ON FRIDAY.

I can only imagine their fucking faces when they figure out they're going out with the same dude, on the same day, mere hours apart. The last I heard, one was really fucking pissed at me and the other one thinks it's hilarious.

Yes I know, 3some jokes, fuck you. A better man than me might have pulled it off.

Valleygoat also provided screenshots for the rightfully skeptical:

There are no updates on whether or not he managed to go confirm with either lady, but he did write this:

Talk to your sons about burner accounts before it's too late.

Reporter brilliantly shuts down vulgar heckler with a 'your mom' joke.

0
0

When a mature passerby at a Palm Desert mall heckled a newscaster with the articulate point, "F*** her right in the p***y," hero reporter Joe Galli handled it in the best possible way: getting vulgar right back.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jglx0hOHSyA

Galli must have been inspired by Sean Connery and Alex Trebek's playful relationship on SNL's Celebrity Jeopardy, where Connery frequently brought up Trebek's mother. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STAk6sPjEbw

"F her in the P" is a stupid meme that many reporters and even the dude form REO Speedwagon have fallen victim to. Galli's comeback is a perfect one, second only to a reporter in Toronto who deconstructed the misogyny and shame implicit in the heckle.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LKkAL1AEam8

The "savage" Galli is basking in his newfound glory:

Samantha had exhausted all her options for calming little baby Roman down when he was crying from teething pain. As a final attempt at a solution, she started playing Adele's "Hello" on her phone for him. To her surprise, and presumably, joy) he grabbed the phone and stopped crying so immediately that it feels staged, even though it's not.

People are mad about that photo of Kylie Jenner posing in a wheelchair, obviously.

0

Kylie Jenner posed in a wheelchair for Interview magazine. Can you guess whether people thought this was a good idea or bad idea? If you guessed bad idea, congratulations. You have more foresight and sensitivity than the creative minds behind a major publication.

The image, which was released yesterday along with the more well-received assless chaps photo, depicts Jenner sitting in a wheelchair looking straight ahead of her.

Oh. That's what you decided to do?

The magazine stands by the photo, and told People the whole thing is an art metaphor that nobody gets:

At Interview, we are proud of our tradition of working with great artists and empowering them to realize their distinct and often bold visions. The Kylie Jenner cover by Steven Klein, which references the British artist Allen Jones, is a part of this tradition, placing Kylie in a variety of positions of power and control and exploring her image as an object of vast media scrutiny.

Throughout the Art Issue, we celebrate a variety of women who are both the creators and subjects of their artistic work, and the Kylie feature aims to unpack Kylie's status as both engineer of her image and object of attention. Our intention was to create a powerful set of pictures that get people thinking about image and creative expression, including the set with the wheelchair, but our intention was certainly not to offend anyone.

Meanwhile, activists and people in actual wheelchairs are like, "Bad metaphor, bro."

Some also noted that behind-the-scenes players might be more culpable than Kylie for the misguided concept.

https://twitter.com/fizfizfiz/status/671741779713138689https://twitter.com/fizfizfiz/status/671742076535635969https://twitter.com/fizfizfiz/status/671743064789028864https://twitter.com/fizfizfiz/status/671757388194672640

The "Kylie Jenner in a glam wheelchair" idea is so outrageous that you do have to wonder if Interview is trolling the Internet to get attention. If so, it's definitely working.

Football player Brandon Reilly stiffed a server because they didn't support his team.

Brandon Reilly is the wide receiver for The University of Nebraska, a college where football is taken pretty seriously, especially by the pumped-up jocks on the team. On Monday, Reilly tweeted a picture of a receipt he left for a server who he overheard bashing the Huskers:

Who's eating? Uh...some random white guy?

Naturally, people were like, "WTF?" since stiffing someone on the tip because they were talking about football is pretty sh*tty. Reilly's note seems to indicate that the server didn't recognize him, which makes sense since he's not that famous. Reilly yanked the tweet, but he got a lot of flack online anyway:

https://twitter.com/brandonreilly87/status/671479595758153728?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfwhttps://twitter.com/BrandonMcDermot/status/671705725366743040https://twitter.com/MDSTILLWELL/status/671495496175714304https://twitter.com/brandonreilly87/status/671479867481989120?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfwhttps://twitter.com/KennyFitz32/status/671706354386526208https://twitter.com/degas_77/status/671480747870392321https://twitter.com/RandyGibreal/status/672131426368663552

Though at least one person supported him:

https://twitter.com/ryanreeder44/status/671863242075992064

Reilly certainly seems to have learned his lesson. If you're going to be an a-hole in a restaurant, you're like most people. Just don't post about it on Twitter.

This illogical exam question has the Internet stumped.

0

What is an exam? What is a question? And what...what is a microphone? That particular question on a sound recording test at Sheridan College in Canada has people all over the internet questioning what is true or false. 

A film student at Sheridan posted a picture of the question on Imgur and Reddit:

Imgur users offered all sorts of theories on what the professor was looking for:

The professor, David Gray of the film studies department, told The Toronto Star the method to his madness: “Trying to break them out of the high school mentality of regurgitation, I wanted to get them to think more openly, so I started putting these funny questions on their quizzes and exams for bonus marks,” he said ("marks" is Canadian for "grades.") 

“There is no wrong answer, it’s just more about pushing yourself and thinking outside of the box," he said. 

With that approach to test-writing, he must be quite the auteur filmmaker, too. 

Kim K photoshopped her nude shoot and people are somehow surprised.

Kim Kardashian's fans have been calling her out for photoshopping pictures from her latest desert photo shoot, but what's more surprising than that is that people are surprised in the first place. The pictures were only released on Kim's website today, but behind-the-scenes footage of the shoot was featured in a past episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians. People put images from the two sources side-by-side, and the comparison shows some alterations were made with the coloring of the photo, in addition to strongly suggesting that Kim had some photoshopping done to make her appear thinner. 

Here's a still from the show:

Contrary to popular belief, this was not for a frosting commercial.

Here's the photo Kim released:

"I woke up like this."

 And here are the pictures side-by-side, with Twitter reactions:

https://twitter.com/missodessa/status/671603843038228481https://twitter.com/vnesstenore/status/671706008390115328?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfwhttps://twitter.com/pyepar/status/671772756707565568

People shouldn't be surprised; Kim is basically a walking photoshop. Now chill out.

Justin Bieber posted a romantic photo with Selena Gomez, then played mind games in the caption.

0

Justin Bieber needs to listen to his song "What Do You Mean?", dance around a little bit, and then really think about the lyrics. Because the boy is confused.

Yesterday, he shared an old photo of himself and his ex, Selena Gomez, on Instagram. His head is nestled into her shoulder, he's pouting like a baby as per usual, and her hand rests gently on his knee. They are perched atop a four-wheeler in Canada, because that's what they like. On first glance, the viewer might think it's a current photo. And, if the viewer has strong opinions regarding this pairing, might even begin to feel a reaction. But wait! In the caption, Bieber announces, "Just a throwback calm down."

https://www.instagram.com/p/-xg3ewAvkB/

It really seems like he tried to get people to freak out before telling them to calm down. And why did he even post this? For attention? For love? To get his fans to start shipping this relationship again? To send secret messages to the object of his affection via the media? It was just about a week ago that he serenaded Gomez by singing "My Girl" to her at a public bar.

There are over 300,000 comments on the photo, and a person would be a fool to read every single one. But many of them say some variation of "JELENA!" Commenters, you're exactly where Bieber wants you.


An employee left a note for people stealing food at work, and it's the opposite of what you'd expect.

0

Redditor Drewn26 noticed that people kept leaving angry notes on the office fridge after their food went missing. One note stuck out from the rest, though, so she decided to share it with the internet. As fun as bitchy coworker fridge notes are, this one is refreshingly sweet:

Here's the message, edited for clarity:

ATTENTION

Food has been going missing, so if you are having trouble and cannot afford food (or etc.), leave me a message in my folder with the days you work and when your lunch is. You don't need to tell me your name, just day worked and lunch (or allergies). I will bring your food. No one should have to steal to eat.

Stay tuned for another note, in which the person who was stealing food has their donated food stolen. 

This dude's hoverboard caught on fire while he was riding it.

Timothy Cade purchased a used hoverboard online, and it totally caught fire after he took it for a test drive. Let this be a lesson to everyone trying to get a hot deal on a hoverboard, because you can really get burned buying used stuff on the Internet. Thankfully, he wasn't hurt, and he was near both a lake and a hose from a nearby house. He could have exaggerated the story to make it sound more thrilling and dangerous, like the guy who jumped from a flaming car. But he didn't exaggerate. Instead, he handled this like a pro and a responsible adult. Specifically, he screamed the following:

Mom! Get some water or something! It's on fire!

That's how you do it. That's how you handle a fire emergency like a grown-ass man. Yell for your mom:

Apparently those batteries cause tenacious fires, because after he extinguishes the fire, it starts back up again. And when it does, he yells to inform his mom again. Cade enjoyed the hoverboard before it melted, and plans to buy another one. Hopefully he continues to ride it near hoses and lakes, with his mom within shouting distance.

Merry Switchmas.

This kid wrote the fanciest letter to Santa.

Handwritten on plain paper, this kid's letter to Santa might not look like the fanciest note. But writer Amanda Mancino's kid writes with the erudite politeness of a true gentleman. Was he British nobility in a former life? Or is he simply a history nerd? Either way, Santa would be downright rude ignoring a plea this gentle during the holiday season.

https://twitter.com/Manda_like_wine/status/671793838676156416

Just make sure, Santa, that you bring him real antiquities, and not a 2008 flatscreen TV

For what it's worth.
