This theory about 'Beauty and the Beast' and 'Aladdin' will freak out Disney fans like only everything can.

A new theory from Tumblr user disneymom is shaking up the easily-shaken world of Disney fandom, because it concerns two especially beloved films: Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin. As you know well from years of singing along, Beauty and the Beast begins with Belle singing a song that describes her little town, a quiet village where every day is like the one before. She heads to the bookshop to pick up something new to read.

Belle picks up her favorite book, and talks to the bookseller about the story. Disneymom​pointed out that her favorite book just might refer to another Disney movie.

Left: Belle reading.
Right: The content of the book?

Belle describes the book as having "far off places, daring sword fights, magic spells… a prince in disguise." Hmm...

She says it has "far-off places."

"Daring sword fights."

"Magic spells." Hmm...

And "a prince in disguise." Aha!

While those four things are the basis for many fairy tales, the particulars line up pretty damn well.

"Here's where she meets Prince Charming..."
"...But she won't discover that it's him till chapter three."

Aladdin came out almost exactly a year after Beauty and the Beast, so this would have been a great way to shout out the new movie during production. Those Disney people sure know how to build a universe.

Steve Harvey called this the dumbest 'Family Feud' answer ever, and he would know.

Steve Harvey, the host of Family Feud, has seen a lot of dumb answers over the years (and certainly has had some dumb moments himself), but this one may be the most elaborately wrong answer ever. The query: "Tell me another way people say 'mother.'" The first two answers on the board: "Mom/Mommy" and "Mama"—come easily. After that: not so much.

https://www.facebook.com/FamilyFeud/videos/vb.166726413406337/986311898114447/?type=2&theater

In this woman's defense, "Mami" is a totally different word than "Mommy;" same with "Nana" and "Nanny" and "Nani." (And hell, it's not like "Mama" is so different than "Mommy.") Every word for "mother" sounds the same, so maybe this is just a bad Family Feud question?

Kylie and Kendall Jenner tell gripping story of revenge on cheating guy entirely through Snapchat.

Quality theater isn't usually what Kendall and Kylie Jenner are known for, yet to everyone's surprise they made a series of fun and entertaining videos about a serial womanizer named Harry in tiny Snapchat-length installments Monday night. It's not quite the Zola story, but it genuinely feels like the kind of fun dumb video you might make with your friends in college (if you skipped college and instead bought a really fancy apartment from which to run a social media empire). Starring Kylie as "Girlfriend #1" (Editor's note: I'm just assigning them character names), musician Harry Hudson as "Harry" (Ok, that one was in the script), fashion model Hailey Baldwin as "Girlfriend #2" and Kendall as "Girlfriend #3," this short soap opera is a cautionary tale about having sex with too many models and celebrities at the same time. An important moral if there ever was one:

Wow, what a rollercoaster ride. This is somehow promoting Kendall and Kylie's new clothing line, Kendall + Kylie. It's apparently guaranteed to get you murdered by models. That part is unclear, actually.

Woman's viral rant against McDonald's employee proves you should be careful who you body-shame.

In a viral video, a woman named Carla defended what she called a civil right: being offered a second McRib without judgment. Carla, with a cigarette in her hand and a crazy wig on her head, gave a rant more engrossing than anything seen in the election so far, ending with a powerful call to action to kick disrespectful McDonald's employees "in the cooter."

 

Did she just say "McScuse me"?!?! LmaoVideo: White Trash Network and Friends

It seems too good to be true.

Over 22 million people have watched the video, and are debating whether it's real in the comments:

A woman breastfed at a zoo and only got looks when a momma orangutan started watching in approval.

Elizabeth Burrett was at the Melbourne Zoo celebrating her daughter's birthday when her 13-week-old babe got hungry. Burrett, who happened to be by the orangutan enclosure, sat down and started breastfeeding. As is often the case, her breastfeeding attracted attention, but this time it was from a kindred spirit.

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10153921520967422&set=a.10150465975987422.394635.574002421&type=3&theater

Just wanted to share with you all this amazing breast feeding experience.

While celebrating my daughters 3rd birthday at the Melbourne Zoo my 13 week old got hungry while we were in the orangutan enclosure.

I took him into a quiet corner away from the crowd to feed, Then this happened..... This mummy came to investigate and she watched the whole feed.
It was the most beautiful thing!!!
Now everyone in Melbourne (well not everyone) has a picture of me feeding as once one person saw what was going on the word spread fast and they flocked to see what was happening. I felt like I
was on exhibit lol

I'm very happy to report that there was not one nasty comment made about me feeding in public.

Burrett spoke with ABC Australia to describe the moment in greater detail. "It started off with just one," she said, "then another one came over who seemed to be a bit older and shooed this one off for a little while. And she came over and gave me a bit of a nod."

Burrett, who believes the second orangutan is a mom, said she was proud of herself for successfully feeding in public, and believed the animal felt the same. All it took for Burrett to revel in her public breastfeeding was the supposed approval of an ape.

https://www.instagram.com/p/_2t9XXpumM/?taken-by=zoosvictoria

In related ape news, Mental Floss reports that Zoos Victoria has been working with University of Melbourne researchers to adapt video games for the orangutans. The current goal is to use the Xbox Kinect 3D motion sensor to allow orangutans and zoo visitors to interact together. The "game" in development involves a projected dot that explodes only when an orangutan and visitor touch it at the same time.

The day is approaching when orangutans will bond with humans not only over natural acts like breastfeeding, but also the joys of technology.

Fuller House, the reboot of the 90s sitcom Full House, released its first full trailer on The Ellen DeGeneres Show this morning. Devout fans of the show will be thrilled. It does not include the Olsen twins (how rude), but they've moved on to better things in their adult lives, like handing out cigarettes at weddings. The trailer begins at the 2:30 mark:

If you ever wondered what happened to predictability, it turns out it was just hibernating for 20 years. Hopefully, the first season of Fuller House will feature a musical appearance by Jesse & The Rippers.


Kevin Hart freaks the eff out at TV segment with live snakes, but Ice Cube stays cool.

On Monday, Ride Along 2 stars Kevin Hart and Ice Cube went on Australia's Today Show, where they were welcomed by some live reptiles—and Kevin Hart almost had 19 heart attacks on air.  

https://www.facebook.com/IwakeupwithTODAY/videos/1165761946791802/

Clearly, Kevin Hart's anaconda don't want none. 

Oh my god, Cube, LOOK OUT!

Hart once told Conan O'Brien that he was "angry" about Australian wildlife, because "everything there can kill you." To be fair, he's not exactly wrong

Hart's emotions ran the gamut from fear to disgust back to fear.

Ice Cube, on the other hand, is clearly not afraid of snakes, but HE SHOULD BE, because remember that giant one he tried to fight with Jennifer Lopez?  

I'm sure it's fine.

Hart later posted this video on Instagram of himself trying (and failing) to overcome his phobia.

Looks like Kevin Hart probably won't be starring in any Snakes on a Plane sequels any time soon. 

Big day.

A wild leopard got loose at a school in India and spent 10 hours trying to eat everyone, but thankfully failed.

On February 7, the Vibgyor International school in Bangalore, India had an unwelcome visitor in the form of the least-chill leopard that's ever existed. Before eventually being subdued with a tranquilizer, the leopard spent 10 hours wrecking havoc at the school and managed to give six people minor injuries, BBC reported. For those who think a leopard would be a cool pet, this footage will forever sear into your mind that that is a terrible idea. The worst, really. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=39&v=lkuxmBv4scM

After he was sedated, the leopard was released back in the wild, where he can undoubtedly fend for himself. Seriously, no one should be concerned for this animal's wellbeing.

Here's something to remember if you're bummed about spending another Valentine's Day alone this year: no one is cheating on you right now! Cheer your single self up with these Redditors sharing the reasons why they cheated on their partners. It will make you a little more satisfied with your solitude—even if you're yelling at your screen the whole time, "WHY DIDN'T YOU JUST BREAK UP?!"

1. Wait, does drinking NOT solve everything?

2. This might be a Dukes of Hazzard episode.

3. You get the feeling that this guy might be the biggest asshole in the whole thread.

4. Cheating in the present tense.

5. This person just basically summarized every answer here.

6. Not every act of cheating involves sex.

7. Like the ending of The Sixth Sense but sadder.

8. He's not bitter or anything.

9. Oftentimes, not cheating means knowing how to break up with someone.

10. He could have just stopped at "we had a long distance relationship."

11. Damn. Don't do this.

12. It's an important part of relationships!

13. A really important part of relationships!

14. REALLY.

15. Water slides are also thrilling. 

16. Five seconds too late.

Seth Meyers told a joke that could not have bombed harder, and he was delighted.

Seth Meyers was delivering his monologue jokes on Monday night when he delivered one that was met with almost complete silence from the crowd. There was so much silence that it made Meyers break into laughter, rising from his desk to walk off the joke's quick death. He even delightfully acknowledged that he should've known better:

I've been doing this job too long to think that joke would work.

The joke begins at the 3:45 mark:

Now Late Night knows a new boundary that will result in a joke bombing. And remember, everything turned out well for both the people mentioned in the joke, so we should all be laughing along with him at this bit of spectacular failure.

Straight men touched another man's penis for the first time and everyone was cool about it.

YouTube provocateurs Bria and Chrissy have a new entry in their series, "people touching genitals they haven't touched before and realizing it's fine" (not the official title). After covering lesbians touching penises and gay men touching vaginas, the logical next step was straight men touching penises. Because what group of people is more easily made uncomfortable than straight men?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lywV1MOHeo

As it turned out, the guys were pretty cool with it (even though one insisted on being pixelated like he was in witness protection, for some reason).

It's nice to know that in 2016, men who volunteer to touch a penis on camera are open-minded about touching penises. Next step: equality.

Kanye West tweeted the acronym for his new album title, T.L.O.P. and people are making hilarious guesses about what it stands for.

Kanye West's highly-anticipated seventh album hasn't been released yet, but it has gone through many names: So Help Me God, SWISH, and Waves. And now—two days before the album's official release—West tweeted that he's changing the album name again, to something with the acronym "T.L.O.P." 

West has sure been active on Twitter recently, hasn't he?

(By "Season 3," Ye is referring to the live show in which he will be premiering his album, and by "Yeezys," he's talking about the expensive Nike sneaker he designed.)

Of course, most people used this opportunity to make fun of Ye, because the Internet both adores the rapper and loves to take him down a peg in near-equal measure:

A couple put an end to their fight over bed space by using math and lasers.

Ever feel like the person you share your bed with is taking up more than their fair share of the square footage? If not, then you're probably the one doing it, so scoot. Redditor jonathan881 (are handles that boring even allowed?) and his significant bed sharer had one too many disagreements about where one side of the bed ended and the other began. They were forced to turn to science, in the form of a measuring tape and a laser

No debate, and sure as hell no cuddling, either.

If you're concerned for their relationship, jonathan881 (guessing his name is Jonathan) says don't be. He writes, "In preparation for this i asked whom she thought was the more frequent offender, she guessed 50/50 i'm no noob... this is totally playful, no spite at all. i'm a lucky guy."

Let's hope "I'm no noob" means this isn't the first belonging of theirs that he's divvied up with laser beam. You should see them try to use the microwave.

300 chilly, chubby manatees invaded some hot springs and gently evicted all the humans.

For the second year in a row, manatees in Florida avoided cold February waters by invading the Three Sisters Springs in Citrus County, Florida, flooding the tourist destination with a herd 300 manatees strong.

https://www.facebook.com/VisitCitrus/videos/10154000211634374/

The springs have been closed off to swimmers, although you can still walk the boardwalk at Three Sisters and peer down at the immense flock of floating fatties. 

https://www.facebook.com/VisitCitrus/videos/10154000220494374/

Related: A gentle aquatic stampede of 300 manatees has booted swimmers out of a Florida wildlife park.

The manatee population in King's Bay (the larger body of water connected to the Springs) has about 100 full-time residents, according to the county tourist board, but the population swells to 1000 in the winter as they take advantage of the warm water. Dense herds of hundreds of animals, which is what's happening now, are more rare.

Related: No one told this frantically screaming girl that manatees are literally the chillest animals.

Although manatees are extremely gentle and generally friendly to humans, there is the fear that when they're so closely packed together an accidental injury might occur. They're heavy and they need to breathe air, so in tight quarters a group of startled manatees might accidentally hurt a person with their weight or prevent a manatee at the bottom of the herd from surfacing. Currently, many manatees rely on wastewater from electrical power plants for their warmth in winter—but in the wake of the Fukushima disaster in Japan, coastal power plants are increasingly shutting down, making springs like this more important.

Guy asks the Internet for help fixing his wife's Fitbit, instead learns his wife is pregnant.

When Reddit user YoungPTone turned to the site's Fitbit community with a complaint that his wife's Fitbit was recording an abnormally high heart rate, all he had to worry about was a broken fitness tracker. After Redditors suggested the source of the high heart rate was his wife, YoungPTone discovered a whole other world of anxiety: parenthood.

Apparently YoungPTone, who thought the sensor on the Fitbit wasn't working properly, hadn't considered either of these options. But when he thought about it, the latter made sense.

YoungPTone then stepped away from the computer while his wife completed a pregnancy test. The test came back positive.

Given the cynical nature of the Internet, YoungPTone updated his original post to confirm that this wasn't a really awesome Fitbit​ ad. 

https://www.instagram.com/p/_7CeK1vtTo/

YoungPTone has no doubt inspired at least one dude to check out his lady's Fitbit heart rate.
