Wearing a bikini outside once again draws attention to a woman's body in this viral video.

0
0

Amy Pence-brown has been moderating a popular Facebook group called Boise Rad Fat Collective for years. Now she's being radical IRL.

https://vimeo.com/138170379

Sometimes leaving the house in your bathing suit feels like running the gauntlet, but in Amy's case it's really like that. Because she's standing in a farmer's market, not a pool. In front of her is this sign:

<3

So, what happened when she made herself vulnerable to her fellow townspeople? Nice stuff! Which is very surprising, because lots of people are NOT nice and if you've ever fallen asleep first at a slumber party, you'd probably be trepidatious about allowing anyone to anonymously draw on you. But Amy was soon covered in hearts and kind words, and getting hugs from total randos.

But...it's washable, right?

On her blog, Amy writes about why it's so important to her to make bodies like her own visible when we're inundated by very specific body types by the media: perfect ones.

You'll see all this in these photos and the video - that the hugs continued, as did the tears, a flower was placed by a young man at my feet, I got a kiss on the cheek and an ice cold lemonade left by my side for when I was done. And, undoubtedly, like me, you will also see other things in these photos - the sweat running down my rolls of back fat, cellulite (on strong legs that have carried me for four decades), a wonky bikini top with sagging breasts (that nourished three babies), stretch marks (that represent my transition from a chubby adolescent to a curvy teenager to a woman who's been pregnant four times), and darkly tanned skin (from a summer spent at the Boise Public Pools with my friends and my children). 

She adds that she was inspired by the warm reception she received on the streets of conservative Boise, Idaho. Boise is a very small city compared to say, New York. This experiment would likely go pretty differently depending on where you are, for instance a town where you won't see the people who scribbled on you at the grocery store every day. But one thing is universal: everyone everywhere is quick to participate in public performances that involve a bikini.


Ultimate moron performs a very dangerous stunt, yet still manages to be a wuss about it.

He jumped out a flaming car. Like a total wimp.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRg43Cb_wN8&feature=youtu.be

The makers of this short, bro-tastic voyage named their work "most epic vehicle jump ever!!" but I'll let you be the judge of that bold statement.

The most fascinating part of this video is that the stuntman goes from badass to baby in a split second. The guy drives a flaming car off a cliff and into a lake, jumping out of the window before hitting the water. It's a crazy and stupid and dangerous. However, the driver holds his precious little nose before splashing into the lake so he doesn't get any water up his sensitive sinuses! I agree that lakes are all terrifying horror films waiting to happen, but the nose-plugging really negates the whole action-movie aspect of the stunt.

Hopefully, this guy will choose to live a long, happy life by protecting the rest of his body the way he does his delicate nostrils.

This metal cover of Taylor Swift's "Bad Blood" sounds like this is what the song was meant to be.

Musician Anthony Vincent took Taylor Swift's pop-y anthem about holding onto your anger and made its sounds match its content.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AxBTwMYkCBI&feature=youtu.be

Well, this video certainly features far fewer hot ladies, but it does have at least two more awesome instrumentalists playing on camera. Wait, that's one guy? Huh. Maybe one way to avoid bad blood is just working with yourself? Anyway, if you do want to scare someone, you'll probably have a better chance with this version. He actually sounds really mad. 

Canadian radio station offers $40,000 for one lucky contestant's gender transition.

Much higher stakes than concert tickets.

A radio station in Ottawa is offering $40,000 to one contestant that wishes to have gender reassignment surgery

Everyone should be able to live the life they want to live, and with possibly thousands of transgender people in our community, we want to help someone do just that.

We at The New HOT 89.9 want to give this "one percent" a voice. One person will be given $40,000 so they can better live the life they want to live.

Let's show our families, our friends, and our neighbors what The New Normal looks like in our community.

Contestants must submit a questionnaire to begin the application process, which is followed by vetting and in-person interviews to ensure the winner is someone who truly identifies as transgender and would use the funds appropriately. The station previously held a contest with prize funds for parents in need on in-vitro fertilization, which also carries a large price tag. Radio stations are getting very creative to compete in the digital streaming age.

Someone planted fake reviews all around IKEA, and they'll make you LIATÖRP out loud.

"Easy to abandon when you break up with someone." - My review of most IKEA furniture.

WUBWUBSKREE is probably an actual IKEA couch name.

Public prankster/artist Jeff Wysaski, aka Obvious Plant, likes to spend his time creating public installations that make the everyday world a little weirder and better. He's filled hardware stores with new and hilarious paint colors, created fake labels for animals in pet stores, and printed custom recommendations for wine pairings at a local wine store that are both hilarious and often depressing. Today, however, he has turned his sights on the one-stop shop for people making a new home together, IKEA. His "in-store reviews" are a perfect example of the way his jokes twist the boring world we're used to into something more fun.

Now he just needs a description for the art they sell there that reads "This store-bought art lowers my opinion of everyone who comes into the house and compliments it."

In honor of Terry Gilliam, here are all the living celebrities people thought were dead.

Celebrity death hoaxes can be started surprising easily.

Here lies Miley Cyrus (jk). 

Basically, all you have to do is start a "RIP (CELEBRITY)" Facebook page, and the Internet will do the rest. If you're lucky, a publication will falsely report on it (as is this case with Variety and Terry Gilliam), and it'll turn into an even bigger hoax. Here are a bunch of examples of other times it has happened.

1. Paul McCartney

Paul ain't dead, mate.

The original celebrity death hoax, "Paul is Dead" even has its own Wikipedia page. It involves fake car crash reports, secret messages hidden in album art, and Beatles songs with hidden messages that can only be uncovered if you play them backwards. Yep, other hoaxes can only dream to achieve "Paul is Dead" status.

2. Tom Hanks

I miss pre-1995 Tom Hanks.

In 2006, a rumor began circulating that Tom Hanks died in New Zealand on the set of Charlie Wilson's War by accidentally falling off of a cliff. Total B/S. If there was any set Tom Hanks would accidentally die on, it's either Cast Away or the Somali pirates movie.

3. Chris Brown

Why do people still support this dude?

Some amazing Internet trolls started posting RIP messages all over the comments section of his YouTube videos, and soon enough, people thought he was as dead as his career after beating up Rihanna.

4. Zach Braff

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3j4PJkkvUs&feature=player_embedded


Someone on the Internet started a rumor that Zach Braff OD'ed on pills, and it got so serious that Braff's mom thought it was true. A slightly miffed, very much alive Braff responded by posting a YouTube video dispelling the rumors and calling the guy who started them a "douche." You know something's wrong when Zach Braff is the one calling you a douche.

5. Bill Nye the Science Guy

Reddit's two favorite celebrities.

In a highly publicized debate, Bill Nye, who believes in evolution, debated Ken Ham, an ardent creationist. After the debate, Twitter started a rumor that Nye was assassinated by a creationist who claimed "God made [him] do it." It sounds crazy, but what's even crazier is that an almost identical rumor was started a few years earlier after he published a video criticizing creationism. Life's tough when you're a science guy, not to mention the science guy.

6. Paris Hilton

Remember when Paris Hilton was like Kim Kardashian?

While Paris Hilton was serving her 45-day-jail sentence for drunk driving, a rumor started that she was stabbed to death by her fellow inmates. Surprisingly, it wasn't Paris who started the rumor. 

7. Macaulay Culkin

This was taken in 2015.

Someone started a rumor that Macaulay Culkin died in his home, so Culkin and his pizza-themed band started making fun of the rumors while on tour with some Weekend at Bernie's-themed Instagrams. This only led to more confusion until people realized he was just messing around and was not actually dead. 

8. Jackie Chan

Still alive.
https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10150136225672318&set=a.98876792317.90092.30382852317&type=1&theater

Someone started a RIP Jackie Chan Facebook page and it got over 89,000 likes, so he had write a response post to get everyone to chill the hell out. 

9. Jim Carrey

Not dead, just a crazy anti-vaxxer. 

Global Associated News, a trashy website that publishes fake news, published a story about how Jim Carrey died in a snowboarding accident. A message at the bottom of the site said "FAKE... THIS STORY IS 100% FAKE! this is an entertainment website, and this is a totally fake article based on zero truth and is a complete work of fiction for entertainment purposes!" but everyone was like TL;DR and immediately took to social media to grow the rumor. Is it bad that I wasn't surprised that Jim Carrey's fictional death involved snowboarding?

Maisie Williams' amusing Instagram post may have re-traumatized 'Game of Thrones' fans.

With rumors swirling around whether [spoilers, duh] Jon Snow is dead or only mostly dead as Season 6 films in Ireland, Masie's amusing post was still a little too soon for some fans.

https://instagram.com/p/7a5URIHqnk/

Masie Williams, who plays Arya Stark on Game of Thrones, is not only a fan favorite but an Internet one. You can see why when she heartily reposts fan content she found online, asking "Who did this?!?!?" I understand this is all in good fun, and hey, I laughed. Right after the GoT fan in me had a paranoid conspiracy nut moment about [Theory Spoilers] whether this in some way signaled that Jon Snow is really dead, and not about to be resurrected by Melisandre as Azor Ahai. Many users felt like I did.

OR, I thought, maybe he IS coming back, and that's why Masie feels comfortable joking about it. Then I looked in the mirror and wondered why I never think this hard about my own actions in life. Finally, I came to and laughed. It's an amusing picture.

Girlfriend repo's her cheating boyfriend's "Batmobile” and puts it up for sale.

0

This guy is just like Batman, if Batman wasn't rich and cool, but instead got his car by having one girlfriend buy it for him and then another girlfriend trick it out.

Amy Estrada was dating Batman. Not the cool Batman who lives the double life of Bruce Wayne and superhero, but the sh*tty Batman who lives the double life of dating Estrada while secretly also seeing another woman. 

This Sh*tty Batman decided to get his Nitro SUV tricked out to look, as Fox 2 Detroit puts it, "just like the Batmobile," which is a pretty inaccurate phrase for a car that has a shape nothing like the real Batmobile. Plus, I'm pretty sure Batman doesn't have bumper stickers of himself on his car. Anyway, the bigger problem is that, according to Estrada, the car she purchased for Sh*tty Batman was in her name, and he got another woman to pay to add all the awesome kind-of-pathetic Batman additions. So, since Estrada's owns the car, she decided to sell it on Craigslist

If you're in the market for a new car, this is the perfect vehicle for anyone who wants to look like a jerk, but doesn't want to make the effort to customize their current vehicle.

These people drew their ideal sex robots, and let's just say things got weird.

When it comes to sex, we all have our types. And sometimes, that type is "multi-breasted f*ck robot."

Nice of this person to put the "S" branding on the Segway wheels.

Robots, like so many things in this world, are something humans could potentially have sex with. But, most of the time, we don't. One reason why? Nobody's had the good sense to build a decent sex robot yet. 

To help jumpstart what will certainly be the sex-robot revolution, a weirdo hero at Vice got seven people to draw and explain their ideal sex robots. The 'bots span the range from humanoid to what are basically tactical f*ck boxes that could probably be launched into space without sustaining any damage. 

I'm going to wait for 2.0.

You can see all of the sex robots and read interviews with their creators on Vice's site.

Knocking opportunity.

Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake did another History of Rap, are almost at the present.

Let's talk about sex.

Last night on The Tonight Show, perennial BFFs Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake released the latest installment in their entertaining History of Rap medleys. The world "history" is used a little liberally though, because they sing Big Sean's “I Don’t F*** With You,” which came out in 2014. 

Jimmy and Justin cover everyone from NWA, Salt-N-Pepa, Wu-Tang Clan, Jay z & Kanye West, culminating with them "fighting for their right to party" in the audience. 

If only all history lessons were this fun. 

Serena Williams posted a heartwarming Instagram tribute to Venus after destroying her at the Open.

Even the most intense burning competition can't threaten their sisterly bond.

Their sweaty, sisterly bond.

In case you haven't been following the U.S. Open this year, here's a refresher: it's tennis. Also, Serena Williams is killing it. She's poised to become the fifth player in history to win the coveted Grand Slam.

In the process, she defeated her sister Venus in the quarterfinals on Tuesday night. The two embraced warmly after the match, proving that there weren't any hard feelings. It's not surprising, considering they've been competing alongside and against each other their whole lives. To hammer that point home, Serena took to Instagram to post this adorable collage the next day.

https://instagram.com/p/7auZp2sTJ3/

The caption reads: "She has my heart. Memories make my heart filled with more joy than I can express. A lifetime with @venuswilliams will not be enough."

As far as we're concerned, they've both won the Grand Slam—of our hearts. The score? Love-love.

'The Late Show' premiere almost didn't happen this week. Colbert explains.

Cutting it close there, Colbert.

It turns out, Tuesday night's premiere almost didn't make it to air. As packed as "a double-stuffed Oreo stuffed with other Oreos," the episode was long and it took them awhile to cut it down to size. (They had to sacrifice the video of Jeb Bush's Trump impression and a discussion with George Clooney about Batman's nipples). When they were finally ready to send the finished version to the network to air, the computers kept crashing. As late as 11:20, it was still up in the air if the show would make it to air.

The story has a happy ending, but it's still harrowing to hear him tell it. 

Stains and suffering.


J.K Rowling used her wizarding powers to magically create the news that it's the dawn of the age of Hufflepuff.

The protagonist of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the new Harry Potter spin-off movie, is a Hufflepuff.

Her patronus is the Twitter bird.

Concurrently, Pottermore—that weird Harry Potter fansite thing—held some type of competition which Hufflepuff fans won:

https://twitter.com/pottermore/status/641603551643500544

J.K. Rowling commented on the news with the following tweet:

https://twitter.com/jk_rowling/status/641608420664152064

Huffepuff always seemed like the house Rowling created when she ran out of ideas for houses, which goes to show that Rowling can literally say anything about any aspect of Harry Potter and people will consider it news. Anyways, if you really care about your house, argue about it in the comments!

Mom's ecstatic first day of school picture is going viral, but does she know what that sign she’s holding means?

0

If you hadn't noticed from all the extremely fashionable teenagers out and about, school has started.

The first day of school, and the last day before viral Internet stardom.

And so has the influx of "first day of school" photos on social media. A lot of parents are creating crafty, Pinterest-level back-to-school signs for their kids to hold while posing for pics. The pictures are cute, they'll be great to look back on when the children grow up, and, let's be real, they get a crazy amount of likes. Just because you're a parent doesn't mean you can stop thinking about your social media presence.

Virginia mom Jessi Kittrell, who's a professional photographer, staged a "first day of school" photo with a twist (above). Think of it as a gritty modern reboot of the form. Her frowning daughter holds a "1st day of Kindergarten" sign, while Kittrell looks excited AF to see her go. She's wearing a bathrobe and slippers, is ready to drink a Starbucks coffee and some nice tequila, and holds a sign that says "Bye Felicia." The photo was shared on Facebook by a local news reporter, and now it has more than 170,000 likes. 

The picture is cute, and hopefully won't be traumatizing for anyone involved, but as Buzzfeed points out, it's really similar to this other photo from August. Actually, really similar. Actually, exactly the same. Can we get some likes for this mom? 

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10156040767485374&set=p.10156040767485374&type=1

Also, do all these moms know what "Bye Felicia" means?

https://instagram.com/p/6jQ0FRk4Nn/

And will someone make me a cool sign? I wake up and get my own butt out the door every morning. Now where are my faves?

28 years ago, Donald Trump got an endorsement from someone else too sleazy to be president.

Try to picture a famously evil 20th Century figure who would be on board with a Trump presidency. Then look at this picture.

https://twitter.com/nytpolitics/status/641393100661895168

Who could have doubted it? Of course Nixon was on board with Trump going into politics. They have the same philosophy: nothing is off-limits when it comes to being a winner.

The New York Times posted this letter after learning about it from a new Trump biography by Michael D’Antonio, appropriately titled “Never Enough.” Apparently, Pat Nixon saw a young Trump on The Phil Donahue Show in 1987, and was so enamored with his Nixonesque charisma that she raved about him to Tricky Dick himself.

Former (disgraced) President Nixon agreed with his wife, and felt the need to send Trump a letter encouraging him to run for office. They predicted that if he ran, he would be a winner. Will the Nixons' prophecy come to pass? Let's hope not, but it does make us nervous. Whatever else he was, Nixon was a smart guy.

Smarter than you, hairpiece.

 

The iPhone is about to give you the exact emoji you need to improve your sexting game.

0

The folks over at Apple want you to be able to say "female genitals" in a cute way. 

You'll no longer be limited to only the eggplant, kissy face, or finger pointing to the "A-OK" hand emoji, because the world of sexting is about to change.

Apple will finally release a taco emoji with the upcoming iOS 9.1 update. 

Forget the iPhone 6S, iPad Pro and the Apple Pencil — this is the biggest news coming out of yesterday's conference. The taco emoji brings a new frontier to yonic imagery, providing the most direct analogy to the vagina. It will also be accompanied by a burrito emoji, which will serve people well as they seek little animated characters to represent penises.

Other new emoji include unicorns, champagne, crabs (perfect for post-coital apologies), tickets, and hot dogs.

Plus, check out the synagogue and detective dude.There are even coffins and urns at the bottom. 

Get ready for some tacos and burritos in your next invitation to "Netflix and chill."

 

Justin Timberlake shared new pics of his shockingly cute baby, who’s basically pre-famous.

Would you believe that Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel created a very adorable baby? Well, there's proof.

This might look like a baby, but actually he's a celebrity baby.

Justin Timberlake was on The Tonight Show last night, and he goofed around as per usual with his giggle pal for life, Jimmy Fallon. He also shared pics of his five-month-old son, Silas, who is obviously destined to be a star. He never asked for a life in the spotlight, but he's too cute to be ignored. And his parents are too cool to stay cooped up not being famous.

Hollywood scoop: Here's the type of elephant towel stars use to dry their babies.

Timberlake also told Fallon about Silas's first word, and the buds developed a new handshake. It's a lot to take in, but it's worth taking the time. What else do you have to do today, not think about Justin Timberlake's baby?
