Nationwide put a dead kid on TV during the Super Bowl and it really bummed everybody out.

0

This kid's cute right?

Spoiler alert. He's dead.

Nationwide aired this ad, "Make Safe Happen," during the Super Bowl. The dead kid talks about all the stuff he doesn't get to experience because he's dead.

Yay footballs.

It's I guess supposed to be about how kids die in preventable accidents, and how it'd be cool if that happened less. But since Nationwide is an insurance company, they're not in the preventing stuff business, right? They're just there to give you some cash when the preventable comes to pass.

So this commercial being aired during a television event that featured Katy Perry riding a "The More You Know" logo was just an unnecessary bummer that has nothing to do with anything, right?


No one dead here. Just soaring cheesiness.

In a night that featured a dead kid commercial, a domestic violence spot, and a spot where the son of a race car driver has to watch his dad almost die over and over again, we can be thankful the game was a nail-biter to take our minds off of all the depressing advertising.


Come back.

5 Super Bowl commercials that everyone's talking about today.

1. Budweiser's "Lost Dog"

If it didn't make you cry, then there's probably something wrong with your tear ducts. (Or, y'know, you're not easily emotionally manipulated.)

2. Always' "#LikeAGirl"

Little girls aren't actually inherently self-hating!

3. Nationwide's "Invisible Mindy Kaling"

Mindy Kaling. Matt Damon. Nationwide should have stopped while they were ahead.

4. Nationwide's "Make Safe Happen"

Because nothing says "fun Sunday afternoon" than a commercial narrated by a dead kid.

5. The NFL's "No More" Campaign

A genuinely affecting ad that came from a genuine place of needing to cover their ass.

SNL's Super Bowl ad parody gives women something to do while the guys are watching football.

A woman's place is in the kitchen...but that doesn't have to be boring!

When the big game's on, it's Mom's job to make the Totino's pizza rolls!

But what should she do for the hours and hours of football during which she's not delivering treats to her "hungry guys" in the living room? Enter: The Totino's Super Bowl Activity Pack—for women! It's full of little games and activities to keep her from getting bored, and it even includes a single pizza roll in case she gets peckish.

Game day is fun for everyone!

Sometimes "TMI" can stand for "Too Much Immediacy." It's not that we don't want to be informed that a friend is masturbating / on the toilet / performing brain surgery / all of the above. We just worry that by trying to share it with us while in the moment, they're not savoring the moment as much as it can be savored. These Facebook users exemplify the growing spirit of real-time overshare, refusing to wait even five seconds before updating their status with the most private, unnecessary, and occasionally disgusting details of the life they're living right now.

Badass mom delivers her own baby on the side of the highway while driving herself to the hospital.

0
0

Even though she had her blinker on, cars on Utah's I-15 wouldn't let Mariah Oslow pull over to the slow lane to deliver her baby.


Either she loves her baby or someone told her how to clean amniotic fluid out of a sedan.

Pregnant mom Mariah Ostler had just dropped her 6-year-old son off at her mother's house to play with his cousins last night when she started having contractions. She was only two days away from her due date, but the Willard, Utah mother waited to make sure she was in labor before she left to drive herself to the hospital. By then there just wasn't enough time.

"I was hoping that I would make it." Ostler told KSL. "But then my water broke and I called dispatch because once my water breaks … there's the baby. There's no time once that happens."


Delivered the old fashioned way on the side of a freeway.

The 32-year-old mother of two said that she usually has a short labor, but this one was the shortest at only an hour and a half. Eventually, she called police and then pulled off to the side of the freeway. By the time the state troopers arrived, they had about 90 seconds to lay down a sterile mat and put on rubber gloves before the baby arrived.

Trooper Josh Carr was the one to catch the baby and inform Mariah that she just had another boy. She didn't know the sex beforehand, and so, as of Sunday, was unprepared for a name.

Verne Troyer and Snoop Dogg both think they should have been Katy Perry's sharks.

Those sharks are very sad that they are not the celebrity comedy duo of Troyer & Dogg.
(via Getty Images)

I bet you never imagined that Katy Perry's hallucinogenic halftime show could get any weirder, especially the part with anthropomorphic sharks and dancing beach balls and palm trees. Well, you'd be very wrong. First of all, as great as those sharks were, Katy Perry really missed an opportunity to add some Hollywood power to her backup crew by not calling Verne Troyer, who went on reddit to remind Katy that the whole world knows he already has a shark-suit and that he "wore it better." Troyer is well-known for being a regular of reddit and for having a down-to-earth sense of humor about himself.


Troyer famously wears this suit to watch Shark Week.

But that's not all! In a different world (the world that Snoop Dogg lives in after a few blunts), those sharks would have included not just one celebrity cameo, but two. In what would have been the greatest halftime appearance in Super Bowl history, had it been true, Snoop Dogg, (aka Snoop Thing-Katy-Perry-Rides-At-Halftime-Shows) went on Twitter to make a huge tongue-in-cheek announcement.

That would have been amazing. Although personally, if there was going to be a big reveal after the Super Bowl, I wish it had been that the Nationwide kid was still alive.


Dead tired.

Katty Furry did an amazing job tolerating her halftime show in the Puppy Bowl last night.

This cat is a metaphor for everyone who gets trapped by show-biz success.

Every year, Animal Planet brings people who don't want to watch the Super Bowl an adorable alternative: the Puppy Bowl. For the past few Bowls, they've completed the illusion by adding in a half-time show with something for the cat fans. This year starred Katty Furry, who literally had to do nothing besides exist as the physical embodiment of a pun in order to win the evening. She did an amazing job at that.

Or is it even more sinister than that?


"I dedicate this song to the memory of human civilization."

I will say that as the years go by, I'm increasingly convinced that the Puppy Bowl takes place in a far darker dystopian universe than we realize. Why are dogs the only ones allowed to play sports, while the arts are restricted to cats? There seems to be a brutal caste system enforcing these rules. Humans, meanwhile, are made to officiate these games played by their erstwhile pets. Has humanity been conquered by aliens, who refer to all of Earth as the Animal Planet and force us to watch lesser species do all the things people used to do? AND WHAT ARE THOSE GOATS SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT?

5 Things You Should At Least Pretend To Know Today - February 2, 2015

1. Seattle Seahawks Make Super Bowl History By Defecating Ball Into End Zone

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Doug Baldwin may not have been able to push his team into a second consecutive Super Bowl win—after the New England Patriots eked out a last second 28-24 victory—but he did make history for being the first player in NFL history to get penalized 15 yards for celebrating a touchdown by pretending to poop out a football. Hey, you've got to take your victories where you can get them.


2. Nationwide Has Perfectly Reasonable Explanation For Why It Made Everybody Think About Dead Children During Super Bowl

Nationwide Insurance has issued a statement of explanation for why they spent millions of dollars to ruin the game of billions of Super Bowl viewers last night by airing a super-depressing ad featuring a dead little boy. Apparently, it's because the faceless corporation really, really cares about your kids' well-being: "Preventable injuries around the home are the leading cause of childhood deaths in America. Most people don't know that. Nationwide ran an ad during the Super Bowl that started a fierce conversation. The sole purpose of this message was to start a conversation, not sell insurance." Almost as laudable as it is believable.



3. Chris Christie Has Already Begun Covering Himself With Dumb For The GOP Primaries

As tradition dictates, Chris Christie began disassembling his reputation as a hard-nosed, reasonable conservative in preparation of the upcoming Republican primaries. In an effort to prove to the GOP that he has utter disdain for all things related to science, the New Jersey governor—who previously supported involuntarily quarantining a nurse who had recently returned from working with Ebola patients in West Africa—came out against mandatory vaccinations for measles. He's clearly in this to win this.



4. Justin Timberlake And Jessica Biel To Have Extremely Beautiful, Somewhat Likable Child

Actor/musician Justin Timberlake confirmed rumors that his wife actress Jessica Biel is pregnant this weekend by sharing a photograph of himself making out with a large bulbous mound of flesh on Instagram.

5. Taylor Swift, because Katy Perry threw some (very) subtle shade last night.

Did Katy Perry get in a (almost imperceptible) dig at Taylor Swift last night? Among other creatures that danced behind Katy Perry during the Super Bowl halftime show were women in vintage-looking polka dot bikinis. Polka dot bikinis that looked SHOCKINGLY similar to what T. Swift was wearing during her 2012 Cape Cod summer romance with Conor Kennedy. Coincidence??? I don't think so! And neither do the folks at Hollywood Life, who also claim a "source" told them Taylor's reaction to the halftime show was: "Missy Elliot had a great Super Bowl performance. That's it!" Oh snap, Katy Perry! The gals' original feud was over backup dancers who ditched Taylor for Katy's tour, so it all makes sense if you squint a little. We can't wait to see how this blood feud continues to play out in the fevered imaginations of Hollywood reporters.

4. Seahawks fans, because not even this amazing last second catch could give them a win.

In case you couldn't be bothered to watch yesterday because last year's Super Bowl was less interesting than reading statistics about football players' debilitating brain injuries, here's the biggest catch of the night. The Seahawks were down by 4 points with a little over a minute remaining in the fourth quarter. Seahawks receiver Jermaine Kearse made a crazy, hard-to-believe, bobbling catch, giving the Seahawks a chance to go for a goal. A goal they missed when it was intercepted, but still. Cool catch.

3. The ad guys at Nationwide because everyone hated their dead kid commercial.

Super Bowl Sunday! Time to tune in and watch the ads companies spent millions of dollars for you to see. Good one, Snickers! That is so true about how Marcia Brady would feel if she was hungry. Wait, what's this? Aw, that kid is so cute...and dead. He's dead. This is just a reminder, from Nationwide, that a) your children may die at any moment and b) you should make sure you make some money off that. Well, now that you've been reminded that happiness is fleeting and death imminent, enjoy the rest of the game!

2. A fourth grader suspended for claiming to have "one ring to rule them all."


(Warner Brothers and Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer)

It has gotten entirely too easy for a kid to get himself suspended these days. A fourth grader at Kermit Elementary School in Odessa, Texas, was suspended Friday after threatening to make another student disappear with his Lords of the Rings ring. Aiden Stewart had recently seen the final Hobbit movie, and brought a ring to school that he claimed was the real deal (spoiler alert: it was not). Aiden was suspended for threatening to make another student disappear with the ring, which is really stupid and therefore really frustrated Aiden's dad, Jason Stewart. The older Stewart wrote in an email to the New York Daily News: "I assure you my son lacks the magical powers necessary to threaten his friend's existence." Aiden has already been suspended twice this year, "for referring to another student's skin color" and "for bringing a kids' book about pregnancy to school." Sounds like there's no hope for this wild child!

1. The shark on the left, because he looked stupid next to the shark on the right last night.

Everyone's talking about Katy Perry's dancing sharks and how much better the shark on the right knew the dance moves than the shark on the left. The shark on the right was sharp, on his game—a back-up shark for the ages. The shark on the left looked like someone awkwardly bobbing their head to the music at a party (while wearing a shark costume). Whoever was in that costume must be feeling down today—not only because they missed their cues, but also because the Super Bowl is over and their shark back-up dancer days are behind them.

Helen Mirren was seen riding the NYC subway, is a hero to all of humanity.

And lo, Dame Helen descended into the MTA...

Make no mistake, Helen Mirren does not need to debase herself by descending into the same base elements of public transportation that people like you or I use to carry our imperfect bodies from one dull and boring place to another. This is a Dame of the British Crown we are speaking of. She is an Academy Award winning actress with the 69-year-old body of an 18-year-old home-wrecker and the grace of Hera, Queen of the Gods.

So, when she is photographed riding on New York City's R Train, she's not doing it for her own personal benefit, but for the good of all humanity:

I wonder if she was serenaded by a heavenly mariachi band. Since this was the R Train, I'd say the chances are pretty high.

Airline workers kill time by drawing a giant dick next to one of their planes.

Ryanair thinks planes look like winged wieners.


The now-deleted tweet that took off like one of Ryanair's flying dicks.
(via The Telegraph)

The low-budget Irish airline Ryanair is known for cheeky PR stunts, but this viral image of a phallus etched into the tarmac next to a plane at Dublin Airport by its workers apparently wasn't orchestrated by management. The image was spread on social media after a certain Brendan Keary posted it on Twitter, although he has since deleted the Tweet and admitted he himself found it from someone else on Facebook. Wherever it was originally from, it caused enough of a stir that a Ryanair spokesperson was forced to comment on it, saying:

While our ground crew excel at industry leading 25-minute turnarounds, art isn't their forte, as they've clearly forgotten to draw wings on their snow airplane.

Much like their flights, Ryanair can apparently get a lot of mileage out of a potential public relations flap without spending very much money.

A Brazilian beauty pageant runner-up stole the crown right off the winner's head.

When beauty turns ugly.


Pettiness is not skin deep.

What qualities befit a beauty queen? She must be beautiful, but not ostentatiously so. She must exude charm, and yet reveal an earnest vulnerability. She should carry with her an air of regality, while still presenting herself as approachable. And above all, she must appear to be above the fray, divulging not an iota of pettiness or contentiousness.

That said, it's hard to see quite why Brazilian beauty pageant contestant Sheislan Hayal—seen here tearing the crown from the head of Miss Amazonas winner Carolina Toledo's head in a fit of jealousy—only made it to runner-up. She was clearly robbed:

She later explained her actions to Brazilian newspaper Globo:

"What I did was not on impulse, [it] was to show Manaus, Brazil and the world, that money cannot buy everything. I didn't do it for me but for other candidates ... She didn't deserve the title."
