'SNL' star whose dad died in 9/11 rips Steve Rannazzisi on Twitter for lying about that day.

Comedy + tragedy. 

Comedian Steve Rannazzisi has been well-known for years for starring on FXX's The League and for recounting his heroic tale of escaping the World Trade Center on 9/11. Today, he admitted that the latter was a big fat lie— and The League is in its final season, so that won't be true anymore, too.

Pete Davidson, the 21-year-old comedian currently on Saturday Night Live, lost his father on 9/11, and has spoken about it both in his comedy (below) and in depth on social media. He responded to Rannazzisigate on Twitter with the hilariously sad, pointed one-liner that sums up the fucked-upness of Rannazzisi's lie: "Can't wait to meet my dad for lunch later."

Davidson elaborated more on his reaction to this weird story.  He later asked us to go easy on Rannazzisi:

Good for Rannazzisi for owning up to it, but this definitely shouldn't have been a problem in the first place. 


Air Canada pilot makes emergency landing to save dog from freezing.

Protect the paws.

Between the exceptionally nice deed and the threat of freezing temperatures, this might be the most Canadian news story of all time.

On this flight from Tel Aviv to Toronto, a pilot made an emergency landing in Frankfurt when he got word of a heating malfunction in the plane's cargo area. Down there was Simba, a seven-year-old (49 in dog years) French bulldog in a crate in the area, and the potential for plummeting temperatures could have endangered his health.

Simba was placed on another plane in Frankfurt as the pilot flew the rest of the human passengers to Toronto. 

This emergency landing might cost Air Canada $10,000 (Canadian, though), but at least it didn't cost Simba his life. 

A look inside the "Pixar SadLab," where they find ways to make kids and grown-ups sob.

We watch movies to escape from our lives into a fantasy world of genuine, unending tears.

If you've ever cried during a Pixar movie, you are performing emotions in the exact way movie executives want you to. And you're a fool. A crying fool! Above Average made a video exploring the imaginary Pixar SadLab, where scientists figure out exactly how to make you feel just upset enough about a child fish that the tears start flowing. So now we know how they do it. Next, let's figure out why we keep coming back for more.

These vintage cocaine paraphernalia ads will blow you away.

You could advertise anything in the 1970s.

Adjusted for inflation, that gold straw costs nearly $200.

When cocaine was king, there was suddenly a market of "required" accessories, along with advertising for every last type of tool you might need to keep your supply fresh and put it up your nose. It's hard to believe there was a time when you couldn't order senseless junk from the Internet while you were in a different state of mind. Back in the day, you had to send away for that stuff from the back of magazines. Just so you could be the flashy one at the party.

Christmas delivery! Stuff stockings and noses.
A gold razor to make your legs or face bleed as much as your nose.
What can we ruin with menthol other than cigarettes?
The latest technology and haircuts in the 70s.

If these ads didn't satisfy your endless craving for vintage coke accessory marketing, there are more.

Scratch that whole "man's best friend" thing. 

"Whaddya want me to do about it?"

A bunch of people on Japanese Twitter have started pretending to faint while walking their dogs in order to gauge their reaction, and the results are pretty depressing:

Most of them don't seem to really care. Or they just get confused.

Here's the clock Ahmed Mohamed wanted to show his teachers and ended up showing police.

You be the judge of this event that everyone already agrees was mishandled.

You can now see a photo of Ahmed Mohamed's clock, now the most famous clock in the history of clocks after Big Ben because Ahmed was arrested for bringing it to high school

The police in Irving, Texas released the photo of the "suspicious device" today to show the American people just exactly how bomb-looking the clock wasn't (after being disassembled to achieve maximum suspiciousness). The police also said that the student would not be charged with bringing a "hoax" bomb to school, a law that nearly everyone heard of for the first time today. 

Hopefully, Ahmed is not only showered with apologies by the authorities, but also with a whole bunch of street cred/hugs/kisses from classmates once he posts his soon-to-be-taken selfie with President Obama to his Facebook page.

16 people whose “hilarious" Tinder profile pics make them look entirely undateable.

The whole point of Tinder is to attract people just enough so that they'll put their swimsuit parts on top of your swimsuit parts.

Maybe trying to be quirky or funny in your Tinder pics shows that you've got personality. Or maybe it shows that you're weird and not quite ready for the things that Tinder is supposed to lead to. (Like love. And boning. Mostly the boning.)

1.

At least it isn't Miracle Whip.

2.

Cool, your Ecstasy dealer is on Tinder.

3.

He'll "ironically" play you "Crash Into Me," but it's actually the only song he knows.

4.

He's a director, which means he signed off on every aspect of this.

5.

He'll be with you right after he teaches that stuffy dean a lesson.

6.

He still reads a newspaper, so no way is he 23.

7.

Not so ironically, humans can't touch unicorns.

8.

Not even that weird for a festival.

9.

Don't you hate it when people do group pics on Tinder and you can't tell which one they are?

They had that one in the book at the tattoo parlor.

This mans owns a Scooby-Doo costume.

Just a guy who loves fun and doesn't drive so I hope you like the park down the street.

13.

I hate to be the one to tell you, but Santa is your dad.

14.

Correction: THIS is your dad.

15.

Hey, no fuss, no muss.

16.

Proof that women can be just as horrible and gross about this stuff as men can.

 

Update: 'The View' hosts are very sorry that nurses got mad at them on Twitter.

Don't piss off the nurses. They give you shots, and they have a powerful social media presence.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNQW9l5_2y4

Earlier this week, the hosts of The View got in Internet Trouble for their comments about nurses while discussing the Miss America pageant. Michelle Collins mocked Miss Colorado's monologue about being a nurse, while Joy Behar asked why she was wearing "a doctor's stethoscope." (It was...of course...a nurse's stethoscope.)

On today's episode of The View, they tried to make amends. Collins explained:

We love nurses. We adore you. We respect you. You guys are wonderful. You're the most compassionate people. I was not talking about nurses, we were talking about the talent competition, and it got misconstrued.

And Behar hilariously chose the "I didn't know what the hell I was talking about" defense.

I was just not paying attention. I was looking at a Miss America tape, and there’s a woman wearing an outfit with a stethoscope, and I’m thinking is she in a costume? I didn’t know she was a nurse. I’m used to seeing them in gowns and bathing suits. It’s not like I was trying to be funny. It was just stupid and inattentive. I didn’t know what the hell I was talking about.

Well, there you have it, nurses. You got Joy Behar to admit she doesn't know what the hell she's talking about.

A little girl and a dementia sufferer bonded faster than most people ever will.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oR0gX3Pk04c

Sandy Miller posted this video to YouTube with the following description:

Sophie's 1st visit to her great nana ( who has suffered dementia) and grandad... We were worried what her reaction would be but what happen next surprised us....... a beautiful moment

It's inspiring to see love instantly transcending four generations and illness. It's also inspiring to see how comfortable little Sophie is with her great nana – she's too young to have learned the discomfort that older people can sometimes feel when dealing with the elderly, in particular with dementia sufferers. Really, there's nothing about this video that isn't inspiring.

Sure, her singing is a little pitchy, but that doesn't matter. She's a little kid. She'll get better. Why did you even bring it up?

Women explain why they fake orgasms, and guys admit they’re not always doing it right.

Bad news: women fake their orgasms. Good news: they have their reasons for doing it.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jk2cbJZyEk

Yes, women fake their orgasms, but not all the time! Just sometimes. Usually when we have to be somewhere really important, like asleep and dreaming about Idris Elba and/or that kid from Harry Potter who turned out to be really hot. Or on Instagram. 

Elite Daily asked women why they faked orgasms, and they had with two main reasons:

1. Women want their partners to feel good about themselves.
2. Women want their partners to just be done already.

And if you're going to fake it, here is some critical advice:

1. Don't over-act.
2. Realize that you're not helping yourself in the future by faking it.

Time to either go tell your partners exactly how to make you climax or set out to win an in-bedroom Oscar! Please, let's all do the former.

Kim Catrall doesn't want you to call her "childless" for a good reason.

Don't call Kim Cattrall "childless," you jerk! (See how it feels to be called something you don't like?)

Actress Kim Cattrall was on BBC 4's Woman's Hour and explained why even though she never had kids, she still considers herself a parent:

I am not a biological parent, but I am a parent. I have young actors and actresses that I mentor; I have nieces and nephews that I am very close to. There is a way to become a mother in this day and age which doesn't include your name on the child's birth certificate. You can express that maternal side, very clearly, very strongly. It feels very satisfying.

She also took issue with the term "childless":

Well it's the "less" that is offensive, isn't it? Child-less. It sounds like you're less because you haven't had a child. 

It does sound kind of judgmental and Jane Austen-y, now that you mention it. And there are so many better descriptors for the woman who played Samantha Jones. This would all be a lot easier if we just adopted the same respectful term to use for all humans: Beyoncés.

You can listen to Cattrall's entire interview here.

Naomi Campbell freed the nipple, but did she do it to make a point or for personal gain?

The supermodel bared her breasts on Instagram, but why?

Her original post didn't have our logo on it. Instead, there were nipples.

Legendary supermodel Naomi Campbell posted this extremely artisterotic image on Instagram Tuesday afternoon, tagging it with the viral #freethenipple hashtag. In recent months, that hashtag has become a rallying cry for feminists angry at the censorship of female nipples, in particular on social networks like Instagram.

Related: Women are Photoshopping themselves with male nipples to protest anti-boob policies on social media.

True to form, Instagram deleted the post later on. But the real controversy with this story has to do with Campbell's motives. As you can see in the caption, the image is one part feminist protest and one part plug for her upcoming book. The 45-year-old Campbell has never been shy about her body (and why would she be?), but some are saying she's using her nudity as a cynical ploy for publicity this time, and co-opting a meaningful movement in the process.

Related: Supermodel Chrissy Teigen's nipples not powerful enough to defeat Instagram's nudity policy. (NSFW)

Has Campbell made a mockery of hashtag activism? Is that even possible? Or is this just a simple nudie pic with no greater meaning? We may never have an answer, no matter how long and intensely we stare at this photo. But that won't stop many concerned parties from trying.

Millennials of New York is the parody of Humans of New York you didn't know you needed, and you can follow it on Facebook and Instagram. If you weren't aware, Humans of New York is a photography blog so compelling that it recently attracted the attention of President Obama, but even something wonderful and impactful gets lampooned once it reaches that size. Plus, it's always easy and fun to make fun of young New Yorkers.

“My girlfriend and I have been together for 3 years, and we couldn’t have done it without Netflix. A decade ago we would’ve definitely broken up by now, but with Netflix streaming, it’s amazing, we barely even have to think about how much we hate each other. She can say things like, ‘If you take a bite of my sandwich I’m going to set your fucking cat on fire,’ and I can throw that sandwich out the window and punch another hole in the wall. Then, all we'll have to do is switch on ‘Pretty Little Liars’ for six hours to slowly bury all that misery back down inside our cold, loveless hearts, where it belongs. We can't thank you enough, Netflix. We're getting married in the fall.”

Gary Pointon was branching out by exploring the Waitakere Ranges in New Zealand with his girlfriend Eve. He spent the entire time trying to annoy her into abandoning him with his nature-inspired puns. I don't know if I'd let this guy be my frond, let alone spend a whole day sticking by his side. It seems like he's trying to kick up dirt, but Eve doesn't get thorny.

I hate to be a sap, but the whole thing is pretty sweet. Sincere apologies for every pun in this article.

It is impossible to stay mad at this very, very, very, very sorry dog.

I can't even remember what this dog did wrong anymore. Also, I never knew what it did wrong because I don't speak Italian.

https://www.facebook.com/anthony.granai.3/videos/10208027200744178/

This very apologetic Italian pooch has been tearing up the Internet (he's very sorry about that, btw) for the past few days, as every dog owner who's ever had a dog seem to beg for forgiveness (or wished their dogs would) shares this almost unbearably heartwarming clip. It was posted to Facebook by Anthony Federica Granai and has racked up almost 20 million views as of press time. Science is actually unsure dogs can be "sorry," since, y'know, they're dogs. Apparently, they really just feel "afraid of being in trouble." That's terrible, science! Why would you ruin this by saying that? And then post a video about it below?

Guy finds video footage of how his friend lost phone at his bachelor party, which could all be a lie.

Oh. There it is.

Redditor JJmann captioned the above gif with the title "My buddy lost his phone during his bachelor party… a week later I realize I have footage of the exact moment he lost it." It's super funny to see this grown khaki-shorted man unknowingly toss his phone from his pocket while riding a tricylce in what looks like a WalMart. Sure, his "buddy" found video evidence thereby solving a great mystery, but it leaves me with more questions.

Why were they in a WalMart? Is this even a real bachelor party? Are these two guys even friends? Is this whole thing a lie? Is everything a lie? What is the meaning of life? I bet the meaning of life is silly gifs. Sorry I doubted you, drunk dude on a tricycle and drunk guy filming it.

Y'know, there is such a thing as spoiling your pet, but I can't say I'd personally deny Hana the Hedgehog her belly rub if she asked me. Heck, I'd probably pay between one and two dollars to do this for five minutes. Amazingly, there's even more footage.

Apparently, this was all a ruse for Hana's owner to get her on her back and relaxed for a nail clipping.

  2. "I have seen a vision of the day of reckoning, and lo, the goats do climbeth on trees, looking down at us as if to say 'You had your time, race of man. Your sun is setting, but for the beasts of Demogorgon, the fire just begins to riseth over the mountains of your failure.'"
  3. "This is an ad for a company that offers photography vacations? Oh. I feel vaguely disappointed, but I don't know why."
  4. "But seriously, goats are really cool."
