Redditor Silly_Pig discovered as much when he left his table outside in a humid environment—something which would have been fine, probably, if the table was solid plastic. Not so much for cardboard.
Swedish design on the outside, third grade art project on the inside.
As a reminder, this is what the tables normally look like:
You can choose lots of different colors, if you don't like furniture that looks like it's from Barbie's Dream House.
Other people have shared images from times they similarly let their Lack table get wet:
This looks like a wasps' nest your dad would yell at you for playing tag near.
Possibly what you'd expect from a $10 table, but also kind of surprising since Lack furniture is actually really sturdy until it melts like the Wicked Witch of the West.
Joining the ranks of celebrities with doppëlgangers is Bradley Cooper, though his clone has proven to be a bit more of a problem than Russian Leo or Adam Driver Cat.
According to Jezebel, a Bradley Cooper look-alike has been snapped partying at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival. The issue with this guy is that he's sneaking into parties and fooling people into thinking that he is actually the frequent Jennifer Lawrence collaborator.

Between the beanie and the likelihood that a million people were annoying the bouncers, it's understandable this guy passed as Bradley Cooper. If Cooper had any films showing at Sundance or were actually in Utah, this guy might have a better chance of keeping his ruse going. However, Cooper is in New York, at least for now.
Disgraced former Wisconsin prosecutor Ken Kratz got Making a Murderer's Steven Avery convicted for the 2005 murder of Teresa Halbach, but apparently he wasn't satisfied to stop there. According to a letter Kratz wrote to Avery a little over a year ago, released Saturday on Twitter by Avery's lawyer Kathleen Zellner, Kratz wanted Avery to confess to him—so he could write a book about it.
The letter, dated September 6, 2015 and sent to Avery at Waupun Correctional Institution in Waupun, Wisconsin, alludes to a letter he received from Avery a week earlier, asking if Kratz checked out other fingerprints found on Halbach's car.
He writes:
I apologize for misunderstanding your letters from a couple years ago, as I thought you were interested in being honest about what happened and finally telling the whole story to someone. Since I'm the person who probably knows more about your case than anyone else, I hoped that you would choose me to tell your story to.
Unfortunately, you only want to continue your nonsense about being set up. That's too bad, because you had ONE opportunity to finally tell all the details, but now that will never happen.
By the way, the difference between you and famous convicted murderers from the past is they told their whole truthful story to someone, who then wrote a book about what actually happened and people got to understand both sides. I was willing to do that for you…but if you are going to continue to lie about what happened between you and Ms. Halbach, I am not interested.
Kratz's offer to write and subsequently profit from a book about Avery shows how truly selfless Kratz is. His interest in what he calls the "whole truthful story" is evidenced by his willingness to keep an open mind and delve further into Avery's claim that he'd been set up, except, oh wait, he calls that "nonsense," even though Avery had previously spent 18 years in prison for a crime of which he was eventually cleared. It's almost as if Kratz isn't as interested in the truth as he is in writing a titillating true crime novel.
The best part about Kratz's condescending letter is that whoops, Steven Avery managed to get famous and tell his story without any "help" from Kratz at all.
Hotel hallways are typically nondescript places that people quickly forget about. But this woman will be reminded of a certain hotel hallway every time she goes into her closet. Her friend uploaded a photo to Reddit that captured a Twilight Zone-esque experience the woman had upon checking into a "random hotel."
"I swear we didn't plan this."
The photo received a flood of entertaining comments on Imgur and Reddit:
The overwhelming consensus is that the photo is some good Internet.
Today, Netflix released a short behind-the-scenes featurette for Fuller House, the sequel to the classic 90s sitcom Full House, complete with tons of catchphrases and a lot of new information about the show. For instance, thanks to this, you now know a soon-to-be-classic line of dialog from Kimmy F*cking Gibbler: "Hola, Tanneritos!"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I3EVwJSqd64
If you're a certain age, there was a girl in your middle school who always tried to be funny by quoting Kimmy Gibbler dialog. It was always really annoying. Go f*ck yourself, Kimmy Gibbler.
Twitter user Zealot may have left his job at a Florida Burger King, but he still loves the fast food chain's offerings. When he left work for the last time, Zealot took with him all the chicken nuggets he could grab.
"I took $5 worth of chicken nuggets / let that sink in," he tweeted.
If that's the case, were those really all the chicken nuggets at that Burger King? Zealot's stash looks more like the amount a few people would order. Or one very hungry/stoned person.

Zealot hasn't shared the exact number of nuggets he has. He's too busy basking in his Internet success.
On January 20, Jenna Fischer was on Watch What Happens Liveanswering fan questions about her TV show The Office. One caller wanted to know how real the chemistry between her and TV husband John Krasinski was, and Fischersaid that part of her was really Pam, and part of John was really Jim, so in a way, part of each of them was "genuinely in love" with the other.
Well, everyone who felt all warm and fuzzy after hearing that should just hop into a cold shower immediately, because John Krasinski is here to clarify that nope, they were definitely not in love. In an interview with The Daily Beast, Krasinski explained:
“I think that was wildly misquoted or taken out of context. I’m sure she was trying to say something nice about how genuine the acting relationship was, of bringing a relationship that became that popular onscreen—and I think we both feel it’s such an honor to be a part of that relationship. As far as how she was quoted about saying we were ‘genuinely in love,’ I think that was taken wildly out of context and I feel bad for her.”
It's going to be okay though, because The Office was just a TV show, and in real life, both Jenna Fischer and her not-lover John Krasinski are very much in love, just not with each other. Fischer and her screenwriter husband Lee Kirk are married and have two kids, and Krasinski is married to actress Emily Blunt. About whom—by the way— he cannot stop gushing, and who is currently pregnant with their second child.
But if you just can't let go, enjoy this clip of romantic times between Jim and Pam, forever in love in TV-land, but not, mind you, NOT in real life.
Kylie Snapchatted a pic of an artist working on a wall-sized portrait of herself in her home. Naturally, the artist painted her lips first. It makes sense because the lips on the wall are just as real as the lips on her face.

Here's the mural further along in its creation:

After the painting of her sexy glare is complete, her next mural should be of her "pear" alter-ego:
The wife of Reddit user MarryHumpsRowdy is an accountant during the day and an avid baker for friends and family at night. For her latest creation, she had a special request from, as MarryHumpsRowdy describes it, "her six year old client."
The kind baker turned the one cookie into a plethora, but for the most part the cake is the spitting image of whatever was going on in that kid's mind. A few people have taken issue with the differing figurines at the top. They insist the kid drew a Sith Lord and a Jedi, not Han and a figure meant to beKylo Ren. But it's a giant cake covered in frosting, so complaints should not be allowed.
MarryHumpsRowdy's wife has also made a bevy of other cakes that look tasty af.
The world already has enough accountants, Mrs. MarryHumpsRowdy. Quit your job and make kids' drawings edible for a living.
Some studious fans at Fun.com compiled a handy infographic listing all the major connections between The X-Files and Breaking Bad. The two shows share tons of actors and obscure references, mainly because Breaking Bad creator Vince Gilligan was a writer on The X-Files.
Gilligan brought a few other writers from The X-Files with him, and a lot of actors crossed over from the sci-fi classic as well. If you're a fan of either show, you'll recognize these major characters, minor characters, and Easter eggs:
Consider this proof that meth dealers and people covering up government conspiracies about aliens smoke the same brand of cigarette. Will Mulder and Scully eat at Los Pollos Hermanos in the new X-Files revival? Only time will tell.
On Tuesday, Steve Harvey did a bit on his talk show where he staged dramatic readings of some of the worst pickup lines on Tinder, which rely both on puns and being accompanied by shirtless photos. Because he is Steve Harvey, he managed to make the catchphrases of the creepiest creepers even creepier.
Remember: if you choose to use some of these lines, be sure not to pull a "Steve Harvey" and send them to the wrong girl.
The post, which has been viewed over a million times, says, "My sister and her cat share the same birthday, knocked both gifts at once." And made an enemy for life. That's how you kill three birds with one stone with a cat's face printed on it.
Britney Spears has an Instagram account that is often refreshingly normal for a pop culture icon. There are lots of photos of her kids, inspirational memes, goofy selfies and food. The food looks absolutely terrible (unless she's stealing pics of corn she didn't make), but still:
On Monday, Spears finally posted some videos that'll make you shout, "It's Britney, bitch!" at the computer screen. This is classic Brit: writhing in a tiny black bikini to the inexplicable soundtrack of Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats‘ “S.O.B.”
Could this hint at a new music video coming out? Is Britney Spears just showing off how fit she still is? Or are these just more random posts from America's most confusing sweetheart?
The sketch was very popular and received widespread media coverage this week. It seems that after seven years, people still can't get enough of Fey wearing Palin's glasses and babbling incoherently. Bristol, on the other hand, has seen more than enough. She wrote:
Saturday Night Live and Fey have been clinging to this impersonation a little too long. It’s getting pathetic. Its been 7 years! Are they desperate for content? Or just desperate for viewers?
Of course, SNL only breaks out the impression when Palin, who hasn't held political office in more than six years, inserts herself into the news. And when you compare the sketch to the real speech it's based on, the wealthy executives at NBC aren't the ones who come across as desperate.
Bristol's bored.
In her post, Bristol also takes aim at the impression itself, complaining that "hearing [Fey's] fake accent is like nails on a chalkboard" for her. (Now she knows how her mom's voice makes everyone else feel.) She adds, "I may be biased, but I think my mom trumps her in the looks department." Oooh! Trumps her? Was that deliberate? Probably not.
Regardless of your feelings on Sarah Palin or her politics, it's clear that the Palin clan sticks together. And their fashion sense can't be beat. Just look at the trouble SNL had to go to recreating Palin's shirt:

Fun fact you might not be aware of: women aren't objects, they're people! But you wouldn't necessarily know that with all of the ads depicting, y'know, women as objects of desire. That's why ad executive Madonna Badgercreated the video below, hashtagged #WomenNotObjects.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5J31AT7viqo
Badger created the project to honor her three daughters, who died in a house fire in 2011. As part of the #WomenNotObjects effort, Badger is promising that her agency, Badger & Winters, will not create ad campaigns featuring women as objects, and she's hoping that she can convince other ad creators to do the same. Badger also recognizes that, in the past, she's been part of the problem: she's responsible for the 1990s Calvin Klein ads that featured Kate Moss.
Badger told the Wall Street Journal, "I love my job but I don’t want to do it if it hurts anyone." That's a pretty good life philosophy, no matter what your job is.
Rapper B.o.B. believes that the Earth is flat and that there's a scientific conspiracy to hide this fact, and recently made those views hilariously apparent on Twitter, which eventually prompted a response from astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson. Tyson used science and math to show that the Earth is, in fact, round, but B.o.B. has an equally powerful tool at his disposal: the power of music. Specifically, his new diss track, released today, called "Flatline." In it, B.o.B. takes Tyson to task for his unwillingness to consider that maybe the world is a floating pancake. Listen to the beginnings of the greatest rap feud since Jay-Z and Nas buried the hatchet:
"Neil Tyson needs to loosen up his vest," B.o.B. raps, devastatingly. "They'll probably write that man one hell of a check." He also name-checks David Irving, a Holocaust denier, in case you thought he was just wrong about this one thing.
