A man named Kyle Kennedy has gone viral on YouTube with a 23-second video demonstrating the awesome power of nature to make neato sounds. Kennedy fished a piece of ice out of a scenic partially-frozen pond, and tossed it across the icy surface just for kicks. Luckily, he was filming, because the resulting sound is like something out of a Star Wars movie.
Nature is amazing. Or so I've heard.
Kourtney Kardashian is already the mom of three human children, but that didn't stop her from wanting to add a fourth "baby" to her growing family. Apparently, she didn't want to commit to another live child though, so she settled for a creepy-looking baby doll instead.
She named him Taylor, and we're pretty sure he might be haunted. Kourtney shared pictures and videos of her new terrifying bundle of joy on Snapchat.
That's a face only a mother could love.
Tell us, Paxy, what's it like to look into the face of a demon baby?
Don't worry, Cesar got to hold him too.
Cesar looks just thrilled to be cradling the spawn of Satan in his arms.
Someecards has yet to confirm whether or not Kourtney Kardashian is aware that Taylor is not, in fact, a real baby. Please stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
The story of a woman who identified herself only as "a grandma" and the sweet thing she did for a harried mom of two young kids on New Year's Eve is going viral because it illustrates how much it can mean when one stranger is nice to another.
In a post on Facebook (later posted by huge Facebook group "Love What Matters"), Kristin Sherman explained that she was shopping at a Meijer grocery store in Michigan on New Year's Eve, trying to purchase a few things (including milk) and get out of the store before either one or both of her tired sons had a total meltdown. Afterwards, while putting her groceries into the car in the parking lot, the carton of milk fell and broke open, spilling everywhere.
The spilled milk didn't make Sherman cry (although it sounds like she probably felt like it), but the nice thing that a woman parked nearby did for her totally did. Because after the carton of milk spilled, a woman who had been watching got out of her car, explained that she she'd seen the milk fall, and as a grandma, knew what a hassle it would be for Sherman to go back inside the store for another (she'd already buckled her two children into their car seats and everything).
The woman asked Sherman if she could go back inside and buy more milk for her, and despite Sherman's protestations, took it upon herself to do so. When she returned, she wouldn't accept any money from Sherman, and when Sherman looked in the bag, she saw that in addition to the gallon of milk, the woman had bought her a second one, as well as a gift card to the grocery store. That bit of kindness, Sherman wrote, "made me cry like a baby."
Sherman ended her post by writing,
Thank you to the parking lot grandma. In 2017 I hope we can all be a little more like her. I'm hoping the lady that helped me out last night will see this. Please feel free to share. Less hate, more love is my hope for 2017.
Seth, on the other hand, is embarrassed by his parent's social media presence (like every child), and mocked his mom's latest tweet about her trip to Paris with her husband.
Ok clearly, she means that her husband is so afraid of change that he insists on eating peanut butter even though he's in Paris. But that's not the point.
"If you would answer your phone you would know."
Even Seth admits his mom burnt him bad. And so do all of his fans.
And let that be a lesson to you, Seth, just because you're famous, it doesn't mean you don't have to call your mom back. She loves you.
As Dr. Pimple Popper often says, a cyst that isn't completely removed has the potential to come back. But because she has excellent bedside manner, she usually doesn't mention that it can come back as a supercharged zombie version of its former self. That's what happened with this patient. Her cyst was removed by a different doctor years ago, and returned as a plump little nugget just begging to be squeezed out. That's where Dr. Lee came in, with a video she calls "Return of the Cyst."
Beautiful.
Bo Bice, who was Carrie Underwood's runner-up on American Idol in 2005, says America "should be ashamed."
The singer has been back in the news after an 11-year hiatus for what he describes as a painful experience picking up some chicken at the Popeyes at Atlanta's Hartfield-Jackson International Airport.
The fateful incident occurred on December 30th, when after ordering his wings (or legs, or breasts...he doesn't specify), the employees mocked his name, calling him “Bow-Bow,” “Boo-Boo,” and “Bo-Bo."
But the real harrowing moment came about when his order was rung up twice, and the group of black employees referred to him as "that white boy over there."
To Bice, a white man, it felt rude to be referred to as a white boy. It's not just the "boy" thing: he says "white boy" is disrespectful.
He called up corporate for an apology, and when it didn't come, he took to social media, as we all do.
“If the tables had been turned and I, as a white male, treated any person of ethnicity any way resembling how she spoke to and treated me, I’d be considered insensitive and racist,” he wrote in his initial post, “Why is it that three or four Popeyes employees can openly mock a courteous PAYING customer in front of an airport terminal of people without any recourse and no apology?”
Bo Bice told Fox 5 Atlanta that he is "not a bigot—I love everybody," even if he called those women "clucking crazy" on Facebook.
Now, remember people, next time you would like someone to play some funky music, just end the title of the song there.
A 37-year-old man has thrown a social media tantrum after being banned from a Starbucks in Spokane, Washington for hitting on a teenaged barista. Or, as the man interprets it, he is being "discriminated" against because of his age, CBS affiliate KREM reports.
The man, named Lucas Werner, complained in a Facebook post that he was banned from the Starbucks after he "innocently" asked the barista out to dinner. This could be a typical annoying but harmless interaction for the barista, except that she is 16 and he is 37.
This is one of the creepiest defenses for being a creep I've ever heard:
"I figure, if she was 16 and flirtatious it would still be legal to ask her to dinner," he wrote in the post, which has gone viral. "You can't even work at Starbucks unless you're 16, which is the legal age to date people. This is a clear case of age discrimination. Feel free to call them to complain on my behalf."
Instead of complaining, people went on the Starbucks' Yelp and Facebook pages and wrote a bunch of supportive reviews, commending them for banning the creep.
"The old guy with a inferiority complex is gross and creepy," wrote one person. "Clearly if the girl complained she felt uncomfortable. She is 16, the mental difference between 16 and 37 is gigantic."
Many more five-star reviews like these have poured in:
"From my understanding, he is a known pedophile who speaks VERY inappropriately of young girls and tries to justify it with 'science,'" wrote one reviewer. "Keep him banned for as long as possible and stay safe."
Werner runs a website called Conversation Our Age, which is basically just a note from him begging millennial women to date him. On his Facebook page he promotes the "scientific" belief that younger women should procreate with older men, with posts like this:
And this:
Spokane Police said any business has a right to refuse service to anyone for as long as they choose. And despite the man's claims of ageism, Starbucks is sticking to their guns. “We have no tolerance for any such inappropriate behavior or harassment, and we will continue to support our store partners and local authorities investigating the situation," said a spokesperson.
Now you have an excuse to go support Starbucks for taking a stand against creeps. Unless you're a creep in which case, stay home.
Diego Luna plays Captain Cassian Andor, one of several non-white male heroes in Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. The Mexican actor shared an incredibly moving Tumblr post from a fan of Star Wars who took her Mexican father to see Rogue One. “I wanted my Mexican father, with his thick Mexican accent, to experience what it was like to see a hero in a blockbuster film speak the way he does,” she wrote.
The movie delivered.
“When Diego Luna’s character came on screen and started speaking, my dad nudged me and said, ‘he has a heavy accent,’” riveralwaysknew wrote. “I was like, ‘Yup.’ When the film was over and we were walking to the car, he returns to me and says, ‘Did you noticed that he had an accent?’ And I said, ‘Yeah dad, just like yours.'”
The story moved Luna, who shared it on Twitter, where it has gone viral:
“I told him that Diego has openly talked about keeping his accent and how proud he is of it,” she wrote. “And my dad was silent for a while and then he said, ‘And he was a main character.’ And I said, ‘He was.’ And my dad was so happy. As we drove home he started telling me about other Mexican actors that he thinks should be in movies in America. Representation matters.”
“I got emotional reading this!” wrote Luna. He wasn't the only one. His tweet elicited an outpouring of supportive messages, in both English and Spanish:
"Yes, Diego, my dad also got a good feeling seeing a Mexican in Star Wars. You're a real pride for Mexico. We admire you."
Diego Luna has spoken before about the importance of diversity in film (you listening, Tim Burton?). "By celebrating our differences... we can do whatever we want," he told Variety last month:
Are you crying? I'm crying.
America's tough-loving dad, Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, has done the most dad thing ever: he brought a giant printout of one of Trump's infamous tweets to the Senate floor today. Whether or not you agree with his politics, you have to admit this dude is a badass.
The Senate is currently debating the Affordable Care Act aka Obamacare, which both GOP lawmakers and President-elect Donald Trump have promised to repeal. Trump promised during his campaign, among many other things, that he would not cut health insurance for low-income Americans. So to hold him to his word, Sanders brought the receipts.
The printed out Trump tweet from May 2015 reads: “I was the first & only potential GOP candidate to state there will be no cuts to Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid. Huckabee copied me.”
Here is Senator Sanders on the Senate floor with his visual aid:
Sanders said that if Trump intends to cut Medicare or Medicaid, he should admit that he was lying during his campaign.
“Millions of people voted for him on the belief that he would keep his word,” he said on the Senate floor. “If he was sincere, then I would hope that tomorrow or maybe today he could send out a tweet and tell his Republican colleagues to stop wasting their time and all of our time. And for Mr. Trump to tell the American people that he will veto any proposal that cuts Medicare, that cuts Medicaid or that cuts Social Security.”
BERNIE SANDERS FOR PRESIDENT. Oh wait, we already tried that.
George Michael was an icon and a pioneer in many ways, but did you know we might not have Carpool Karaoke without him?
In 2011, James Corden's first-ever Carpool Karaoke (which starred, of course, George Michael) aired on the BBC as part of a show to benefit the British charity Comic Relief, long before he was the host of TheLate Late Show.
James Corden talked about making the first segment in an interview with Howard Stern back in June.
"We sat in the car and we were singing Wham! songs, and we couldn't really put our finger on: 'Why is this so joyful?' " he told Stern. "There's just a joy in it and we couldn't really work out why."
Corden also revealed that George Michael's segment helped convince Mariah Carey to be his first guest when Carpool Karaoke made its debut on The Late Late Show.
Corden posted a tribute to Michael on Twitter following the singer's death.
Peace-loving stoner that he is, it's shocking that Snoop Dogg could ever stir up drama. But yesterday at comedian Ricky Harris' funeral, his mere presence incited a brawl, TMZ reports.
The Snoop hater is allegedly a cousin of Ricky Harris, according to multiple sources who were inside the Long Beach, Calif. church when the fight went down. Perhaps Ricky's cousin has beef with Snoop, perhaps he is anti-marijuana, or perhaps he's just mad he didn't get a show with Martha Stewart. Whatever the case, something caused this guy to call Snoop a "b*tch ass n*****," which is rude and a bad idea, to say the least. Cuz even if Snoop isn't a fighter, you know he's got some people who will throw down on his behalf.
According to TMZ, two of Snoop's crew members, including hip hop artist Daz Dillinger, took down Ricky's cousin on Snoop's behalf. (Reminder: this all happened AT A FUNERAL.) You can watch the madness unfold in this video:
Eventually, Snoop's bodyguard dragged Ricky's cousin out of the church. Meanwhile, Ricky Harris is just chillin', dead as a doornail in his casket. Snoop had his own review of the day, which he posted on Instagram. "Beautiful service today," he opens, looking dapper in his bowtie, before he goes on to add, "oh yeah, the devil is a-motherfucking-live." Which I am going to assume is a reference to the man who attempted to beat him up at a funeral for a person they both love and miss, which is a devilish thing to do.
I can't wait to be dead, when there is finally no more drama. Do not bring your drama to my funeral.
In a new video for W magazine, my new BFF Andrew Garfield tells a kind of amazing story about getting super high on pot brownies while celebrating his 29th birthday at Disneyland in 2012. Oh, and as if you weren't already mad you weren't invited, Emma Stone (his gf at the time) was there, too. And seven other friends, none of which were me for some reason.
It sounded really, really, reeeeeeally fun.
“They came out to L.A. to surprise me," says the 33-year-old Spider-Man actor in the video. "We went to Disneyland. We ate pot brownies. It was literally heaven. How about Space Mountain three times in a row?”
As anyone who has eaten weed knows, sometimes getting high can go awry. Especially in a place like Disneyland.“I freaked out on It’s a Small World," says Garfield. "I was like, ‘It is a f—— small world.’"
Still it seems like, overall, it was most def worth it. He recalls:
We were walking through Fantasyland and there was a song that was playing coming out of the trees, and we were all doing this — dancing through — and I think at one point we all started looking around going, "We’re all doing the same dance. How did this happen?"
Talk about a La La Land!!!! Ha ha ha. Sorry. You can watch him tell the story in the video, tweeted out by a fan:
Now I know what I'm doing for my next "29th" birthday.
On Wednesday the Orlando City Soccer Club unveiled a new tribute to the victims and families of the Pulse shooting that took place on June 12, 2016. The memorial will be a permanent fixture at the soccer club's new stadium: 49 rainbow seats emblazoned with #OrlandoUnited, meant to symbolize the 49 innocent lives lost on that day.
"We put them in Section 12 obviously because we felt that was pertinent. It was June 12, as you know, last year, when the tragedy happened," said Phil Rawlins, the president of Orlando City who led the dedication. "They'll certainly be seen by everyone inside the stadium, and are a very significant reminder of that day." The seats stand out amongst the stadium's otherwise purple and white chairs, and are regular season ticket holder seats, which means that getting an up-close and personal experience of the tribute is accessible to all who attend games.
You can watch a clip of the unveiling below, or see the full-length video on Orlando Club SC's site.
From what I gather, Game Of Thrones is a show set in the Middle Ages where people with confusing names kill each other so often that you can't get invested in any of the characters. And winter is coming. I haven't watched a single episode because I am stubborn, but even I have heard of Hodor, the endearing, dopey character who seems to be inspired by Steinbeck's character Lenny in Of Mice And Men. And while you'd be hard-pressed to sit me down and force me to watch a bunch of pet dragons, uh, fight each other (?), you better believe I watched the hell out of actor Kristian Nairn's audition tape for the role of Hodor.
Does Hodor lift a bunch of stuff in the show? Don't tell me, because I literally don't want to know anything about this drawn-out oaf bloodbath excuse for a book series and television series. What I do know, from watching this audition tape, is that Nairn is so good at lifting stuff, which is probably why he got the role. He lifts a table, a wooden well, and yes, even an elementary-school aged child in this audition. Plus, he lumbers. This audition tape might be better than all of George R.R. Martin's books and HBO's episodes combined. Maybe I'll watch it on loop for two days and 11 hours, which is how long BingeClock says it would take me to watch the entire Game Of Thrones series. I bet I will find some amazing Easter eggs if I do.
Anyway, whatever, I'm sure the show is fine but please just watch this video:
