Some people just don't like Thanksgiving. Some people just don't get the point of Thanksgiving. And all of these people have Facebook accounts, and all of them are posting terrible things on their walls, probably during the Thanksgiving dinner they didn't want to do to anyway. Ugh, Thanksgiving is the worst.

1. They do have a point.

They chose NOT TO EAT THE TURKEY?!

2. Technically correct.

Yes, but…pie?

3. Happy Spanxgiving.

Guess who's eating alone, probably forever?

4. Kids!

Three years have past, maybe he has a Pokemon and some chill by now.

5. Calling fowl.

Peacocks are just fancy chickens.

6. They thought of everyone!

Goodnight, and same to you, buddy.

7. Not a good enough excuse.

The cranberries are cruelty-free.

8. It's good for the family to have a group activity.

Why else would you go to the mall on Thanksgiving?

9. Cool story, bro.

Jeri was asked to be quiet when the family went around the table and everyone said what they were thankful for.

10. Cool bro story.

Well, Tim, maybe if you weren't such a Tim and more of a Casey…

11. They were all out of Wild Turkey.

Ooh, premium turkey breast!

12. Brought to you by your favorite website, domeecards.

Not after that huge meal he won't.

13. The sweat smell of success.

Stale urine isn't all that worse than fresh urine, though.

14. There are some holes in the story.

I'm thankful for our public school system.

15. We're sorry also.

All except the Selfisharians.

16. She's got legs.

And she knows how to use them.

17. Teecher is gud teeacher.

This is a trap to get her back into grade school.

18. Well, the coffee's working.

And three unsatisfying ones.

Adele showed her lighter side for once while trading silly lies with Jimmy Fallon.

By now, the name Adele is synonymous with tears. For three albums, she has explored the agony of lost love, and the pain of regret. She's also a fun, goofy gal who enjoys a good Adele sketch as much as you do. She also likes getting silly with the king of silliness, Jimmy Fallon. Watch as she and Jimmy play Box of Lies, which presumably is called "Vessel of Silly Fibs" in England. She'll have you LOLing in the Deep.

The kid who was the voice of Arnold in 'Hey Arnold' is all grown up. And he ain't no cartoon, ladies.

Lane Toran is a 33-year-old voice actor who played a very famous cartoon character known as Arnold, of Nickelodeon's Hey Arnold! Remember? Football Head? Though that nickname is very accurate, Arnold made many young girls' hearts flutter, including the series bully, Helga Pataki. There was just something about him. He was honorable, friendly, determined, nice to old people. Could pull off a hat.

But that magic extra something we heard in Arnold's squeaky cadences was actually Lane Toran himself, because dude is hot. Lane was a teenager when he was voicing a fourth grader, but he sure is grown now. And we all love seeing child actors grow up, even if we had no idea what their faces looked like because they were cartoons. Lane's face now has a beard, if you're interested:

Though there's kind of a lot going on. Beard, guitar, hat, eyebrows on fleek:

But if you like it, he has an entire Instagram feed of him looking manly and staring off into the distance:

It frequently features other smokin' bros who look like they shop exclusively at whatever the high end version of American Eagle is:

Bad news is that he does appear to have a girlfriend:

Don't tell Helga.

Cheerleader Sofie Tate does with one leg what most people can hardly do with two: not only smile and be enthusiastic, but also pull off jumps and sophisticated choreography. Tate was cheering on her high school squad when she was scouted by the coach of the Nebraska Wesleyan University cheerleaders, who caught her story on the the local news. NWU coach Terry Lange offered her an audition, and said that "it wasn't Sofie's birth defect, but her talent" that landed her on the squad.

Sofie at Homecoming.

“She's very, very good at what she does,” Lange said, ;“An individual with the limitation that she has, with what she was doing, it was just phenomenal to watch her perform."

Sofie and the squad.

Tate says she sometimes imagines what life would be like had she been born with two legs:

“Just walking and dancing and cheering sounds fun, but honestly if this is the worst thing that happens to me, like we'll be good, because it's not too hard at all."

Watch Sofie in action, and you'll quickly become a Nebraska Wesleyan University Prairie Wolves Fan:

She also deserves massive credit for this fantastic A Christmas Story Halloween costume:

Whose idea was it to surprise Bindi Irwin on ‘Dancing With The Stars’ with a giant photo of her dead dad?

Last night on Dancing with The Stars, Bindi Irwin performed a tribute to her late father, Steve Irwin aka "The Crocodile Hunter." Actually, she did a regular dance and then at the end, her dance partner surprised her with a huge photo of her and her dad when she was a little kid. If the show was trying to make her cry, and then the judges cry because she's crying, and then the audience cry because everyone else is crying, it worked. And thankfully, Bindi seemed to find the moment to be an appropriately emotional remembrance celebrating her dad's life, which is probably the best case scenario.

The judges awarded Bindi perfect tens, because this was not the moment to be like, "Your point was lazy! Work harder!" But also Bindi really brought it throughout the contemporary freestyle dance to "Footprints in the Sand" by Leona Lewis, even demonstrating technical proficiency with the presumably very difficult hop-off-the-guy's-shoulders spin move. She's truly come so far since those creepy "all grown up" headlines


Adele, Jennifer Lawrence, and Emma Stone are hanging out without you.

Last night, Adele, Jennifer Lawrence, and Emma Stone hung out. It seems like J Law, Hollywood's current top actress, is taking a page from Taylor Swift's book (about world domination) and befriending any woman who comes close to matching her power. She will make you her ally! And you will like it. Because it seems really fun.

https://twitter.com/people/status/669181198145581056

According to People, the trio ate dinner together at Cosme, a Mexican restaurant in New York City's Flatiron District, after Adele performed on The Tonight Show. Then they all rode in a car together, and were apparently chatting.

What were they talking about? You'll have to become extremely famous and get co-opted by Jennifer Lawrence's squad to find out.

20-year-old guy shares scary story of how bad ecstasy permanently messed up his body.

Jordy Hurdes is a 20-year-old Australian guy who went partying like 20-year-olds do. He took an ecstasy pill, but instead of finding joyous release on the dance floor with a handful of glow sticks, he ended up in the hospital and came very close to dying. Whatever was in that pill, it brought no ecstasy. On Saturday, he posted a status update about the experience, with pictures of himself in his recovery bed. His message went unexpectedly viral, because of its classic simplicity: Don't Do Drugs.

Posted by Jordy Hurdes on Saturday, November 21, 2015

It reads:

So as some of you may have seen I have been in hospital for the past few days. This isn't a sympathy post, but a post of awareness. Going out and having fun is all good and well. And taking party drugs (pills, pingas, googs) seems like a fun option and you don't think anything life changing could happen to you. I myself am lucky to be alive now, I now have the possibility of a permanent stutter and twitch due to nerve or brain damage. Please please please don't take the "cheaper fun" option, because you never know if it could happened to you. If I can get this into at least a couple of people's heads then I could have saved someone's life. 
I would also like to thank my amazing gorgeous friends for all the gifts and support to not only my self but my family, and for coming to visit me today and make the most of it. I love you all. 
Feel free to share this post as I want as many people to see how a simple party drug can change someone's life.

After the post went viral, Jordy shared a video update that shows just how badly he's been messed up by sh*tty chemicals. It's painful to watch him struggling with words and his body's spasms.

 

Thank you so much for the love and support from everyone. I honestly can not believe how much the post has gone viral. Please share this video. The more that can see this. The more lives can be saved

He says:

The party scene’s pretty big these days in Australia, and so is Ecstasy. Look guys, this isn’t for sympathy or anything, this is for awareness. It’s played a huge part in my life and affected a lot of people in my family as well as my friends. Doctors can’t believe I’m still alive, so I’m grateful I’m still here. It’s a waiting game at the moment to see whether I’ll have permanent jerking like I do now, and with my stutter I’m not sure it will get better any time soon. But just, please guys, don’t get sucked in. It all seems like fun and games and a cheap $25 pill – but it’s not worth it. if I have to live like this it's going to be a struggle for the rest of my life. 

Say no to drugs – do it for me. Please, guys. I just want to thank everyone for all the support and all the messages. Sorry I haven’t been able to respond to all of them, I've been trying but I’m just so exhausted from muscle spasms. Please, guys, just don’t do it. Love all of you.

Ridiculous Australian names for ecstasy pills aside, Jordy's condition is very serious and his advice is wise. Drugs can be fun, drugs can be terrible, but most of all drugs can be incompetently made in someone's toilet.

This 1949 Superman poster about patriotism is going viral because it's more relevant than ever.

$
0

A viral image that's been circulating around the Internet recently is hardly new—in fact, it's 66 years old. But it's as relevant now as it's ever been.

The image is a public service poster intended for American schools, featuring Superman lecturing a group of well-scrubbed young people about what it truly means to be "all American." And although the presentation may be corny in a uniquely baby boom way, the message is surprisingly progressive. And it's one that many people in 2015 still haven't learned.

Superman says:

…And remember, boys and girls, your school—like our country—is made up of Americans of many different races, religions and national origins. So… if YOU hear anybody talk against a schoolmate or anyone else because of his religion, race or national origin—don’t wait: tell him THAT KIND OF TALK IS UN-AMERICAN.

The Huffington Post did some investigative work to track down the origins of the poster. The copyright date on the image is 1956, but a black-and-white version available elsewhere had a copyright from 1949. It was originally distributed by the Institute for American Democracy, an offshoot of the Anti-Defamation League. The intent is clear—to mend America's deeply-rooted prejudices in that troubled but optimistic period between World War II and the Civil Rights era.

Looks like it didn't work. With major presidential candidates advocating for deporting immigrants and closing the door on refugees in a way not seen since before WWII, it's almost like we've taken a step backward. And it's hardly Superman's fault—people don't even like his movies anymore.

Maybe what the country needs is a hefty dose of inspiration from a classic, non-gritty Superman. And a less-ugly Batman costume. But that's beside the point.

This photo of a mom in labor is an inspiration to multitaskers everywhere.

Student and expectant mother Tommitrise Collins' water broke on November 12th, the same day she was supposed to take a psych exam. Collins is studying criminal justice at Middle Georgia State University, and though she probably could have gotten an extension, she decided to go through with the test and have one less thing to stress about while raising a newborn. To put yourself in her shoes, imagine reading, while cooking eggs and tap dancing, but you also have a baby scrambling out of your vagina. It was like that. Collins' sister, Shanell, posted a photo of Collins in labor, staring at a glowing computer screen. 

This is what you call "Strong Priorities". Contractions 3 minutes apart and still takes her Psychology Test! You are going to be a great Mom baby sis!

Posted by Shanell Brinkley-Chapman on Thursday, November 12, 2015

The picture has now been shared over 15,000 times, as Collins has inspired people everywhere to reach for new heights. Shanell captioned the pic with:

This is what you call "Strong Priorities". Contractions 3 minutes apart and still takes her Psychology Test! You are going to be a great Mom baby sis! 

It's good she clarified, because it really wouldn't be too surprising if she was just staring at Facebook while in labor. That's probably what a lot of moms do. Collins told Fox 5 Atlanta why she didn't use her legitimate excuse for delaying the test, even though she was in considerable pain:

It took me 4-5 hours after the opening of the test to try to put the pain to the side and do it so I wouldn't have to do it later and I could enjoy my newborn... She is my life now, and the way I look at it is, she will always have me to depend on so my goals will not be put on hold. I don't want to just barely make it by, I want my child to live comfortably, and I want to show people that just because I am considered a young mother doesn't mean I have to be considered a bad mother.

Collins passed the exam, though she later decided to retake it to see if she could get a better grade when another human wasn't exiting her body. She ultimately got a B, maintaining her 3.6 GPA and annihilating any chance her daughter has to get out of doing her homework in future.

Pencils down.

11 celebs who prove that famous people can have unrealistic celebrity crushes too.

$

You probably have a celebrity crush and it's probably Bradley Cooper. But it's weird to think that for famous people to enjoy a good celebrity crush, they have to focus their baseless romantic energy toward their own brothers and sisters in stardom. They could run into them at the grocery store. (That would never happen.) Here are 11 celebrities who revealed their own, equally famous celebrity crushes.

1. Diane Keaton has a crush on Justin Bieber.

Diane Keaton, apparent Belieber, recently toldEllen Degeneres, "I like that boy." Then Ellen surprised her by bringing out the boy himself, and Keaton lost her mind in a way that could convince even the most cynical viewer that the stunt wasn't staged.


2. Jennifer Lawrence has a crush on Larry David.

Jennifer Lawrence is so quirky. (How quirky is she?) She's so quirky she falls down literally constantly and her celebrity crush is an old dude. The actress said toVanity Fair about comedian Larry David, "I’m in love with him, and I have been for a really long time. I worship Woody Allen, but I don’t feel it below the belt the way I do for Larry David."


3. Kim Kardashian has a crush on Johnny Depp.

Even Kim K. had the hots for Johnny Depp when she was a teenager, because Kardashians are only human. She told Australia's Daily Life, "I was obsessed with Johnny Depp when I was a teenager. I thought he was so hot. He was gorgeous and had that bad-boy streak--especially when he was with Winona Rider and then Kate Moss."


4. Meryl Streep has a crush on Will Ferrell.

Meryl Streep values a crush with a seasoned maturity. She told WMagazine, "I have the biggest
 crush on Will Ferrell. I love him in every film he does. I mean, Ryan Gosling could be my child. I’m not going to have a crush on a child. 
Will Ferrell is a man."


5. Anne Hathaway has a crush on Jon Stewart.

When (unjustly hated) actress Anne Hathaway appeared on The Daily Show in 2008, she told host Jon Stewart to his face that she had a crush on him. In the middle of her interview she announced, "By the way, I'd just like everyone to know that all I heard right there was 'buzz buzz buzz.' I'm sitting across from Jon Stewart!" Stewart then explained that the TV lighting and makeup often tricks millennials that way. 


6. Matthew McConaughey has a crush on Susan Sarandon.

Matthew McConaughey's reason for admiring fellow actor Susan Sarandon is purely bizarre McConaughey poetry at its best. He toldW Magazine: "Susan's got those pores, they are large, like, woman comes out of her and honesty comes out of her, I just find her very crushable."


7. Jim Carrey has a crush on Emma Stone.

Jim Carrey professed his love for actress (and J Law squad member) Emma Stone through a bizarre, supposedly comedic, now-deleted YouTube video. It included such jokes as, "I just wanted to let you know that I think you're all the way beautiful. Not just pretty, but, you know, smart and kindhearted. And if I were a lot younger, I would marry you, and we would have chubby little freckled-faced kids..."


8. Lena Dunham has a crush on Jimmy Fallon.

When Girls creator Lena Dunham appeared on Late Night with Jimmy Fallon in 2012, she immediately told Fallon there was a lot she'd "been meaning to say" to him for a long time. She went on to say she was completely obsessed with him in high school (which is true for a lot of people her age) and wrote a play in which they switched bodies and fell in love (which is less common).


9. Ryan Reynolds has a crush on Anna Kendrick. 

https://twitter.com/VancityReynolds/status/574282240554758144https://twitter.com/AnnaKendrick47/status/575027745874313216

Ryan Reynolds is into Anna Kendrick, just like everybody else. He tweeted that kissing her while costarring in The Voices was like "taking your face to Awesometown." She replied, "That IS the Kendrick-train guarantee. With local stops in Awkwardville and Tolerableshire." Quirky but also sexy, which is so like her.


10. Kristen Stewart has a crush on Harrison Ford.

Kristen Stewart, vampire birther and Internet expert, says she used to have a "huge thing" for some guy named Harrison Ford, who apparently is the old dude from the Star Wars: Force Awakens trailer.


11. Ashton Kutcher has a crush on Jennifer Aniston.

Seventeen-year-old Ashton Kutcher, who had a Jennifer Aniston screensaver, made a bet that he would one day go on a date with her. Then, as he explained to Graham Norton, Kutcher got famous, met Aniston, got permission from then-husband Brad Pitt (who it was not up to), and actually asked her out. She said no.

Can you spot the cute little photobomber in this pic from a 'New York Times' column about terrorism?

There's something interesting about the photo used in Paul Krugman's new column in the New York Times, and no, it's not just the fact that it shows Obama and his crew watching Osama bin Laden die.

Obama is watching a raid that was 10 years in the making along with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, his top aides, and a cat.

A cat.

https://twitter.com/lachlan/status/669187134507630592?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

A cat photobomb isn't the kind of bomb you expect in an article called "Terror Politics." 

Krugman's article in his venerated "Conscience of a Liberal" column discusses how conventional wisdom about how terror works and operates is often misguided. Sadly, the article is not about the cruel terror politics of a kitty cat's constant indifference. Twitter went crazy over what they thought was a mistake:

https://twitter.com/HeerJeet/status/669186461611225088?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfwhttps://twitter.com/yananw/status/669193825886294016https://twitter.com/elliosch/status/669192344315514880?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfwhttps://twitter.com/ehananoki/status/669202748798312448?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

 

https://twitter.com/optionmonster/status/669211936563724289?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

As people pointed out, it wasn't the first time this year that cats have been involved in the fight against terrorism, with Belgians having tweeted cat photos while under lockdown.

https://twitter.com/kmuehmel/status/669197747682152448

Krugman heard the cries, and insists that his inclusion of the kitty was deliberate, posting an update at the top of the column. Terrorism is the most serious issue of these terrifying times, which is why wanted to lighten the mood with a cat:

Update: Yes, I know there’s a cat in the picture; I took it from Slate, “The Cats of War.” I’ve used that image before, to lighten things up slightly. Apparently I didn’t succeed.

Some are skeptical and think the update is a cover-up. There are Krugman Cat Truthers out there, but there are also some believers:

This gorilla taught a little girl a very important life skill: how to give the finger.

There are so many important things our animal cousin the gorilla can teach us: how primate brains develop, how social hierarchies form, and how to give the silent "f*ck you" known as "the finger." At least, that's what the mother of human girl Riley Madison discovered on a trip to the Columbus Zoo. There, a stoic gorilla taught li'l Riley the most important life skill she might ever learn. If only all the animals at the zoo taught kids different ways to say "f*ck off." Then trips to the zoo could be truly educational.

You remember Usher, right? Crooner of hits like "DJ Got Us Fallin in Love" and "Yeah"? He is not only a singer, dancer, songwriter and actor, but is also the proud owner of a torso. Specifically, he's the owner of the torso seen below, which is impeccably crafted and features some suggestive veins. Usher took to Instagram to raise awareness about this torso that is seldom discussed, but should be at the forefront of the public discourse.
