The Funniest Moments From the 2013 White House Correspondents’ Dinner
The annual White House Correspondents' dinner took place this past weekend, and it was a delight. We honestly think it was probably the best performance at one of these dinners since Stephen Colbert roasted George W. Bush right in front of him (this makes us cringe a little bit less though). Only we aren't talking about Conan O'Brien -- we're talking about President Obama, who really hammed it up
Game of Thrones Season 3 Episode 5 GIF Recap
We're halfway through the third season of 'Game of Thrones,' and things slowed down a little bit for last night's episode. Granted, there were still sword fights, executions and lots and lots of sex, but unless a dragon had blown up another city, anything was basically guaranteed to feel like a step down after the insanity of episode four. Let's take a look at what happened. (As always, spoilers a
Postman Teaches Kid a Lesson He Won’t Forget
We're not sure if this is the best or worst postman in the world. On the one hand, he really makes sure that mail gets delivered. On the other hand, now a toddler is crying. You know what? We're going to go with best postman in the world, because this GIF exists thanks to him.
10 Hacked Tweets We Want to See
Earlier this week, somebody hacked the AP's Twitter account and posted a tweet saying that there were explosions in the White House and President Obama had been injured. The account was quickly suspended, and the situation dealt with.
‘Game of Thrones’ Bad Girls Read That Crazy Sorority Girl Email
We are more than slightly enamored with Maryland sorority sister Rebecca Martinson's insane-o email that went viral last week, which led to dramatic readings performed by everyone from Michael Shannon to Barbie.
So we made these mash-ups with female characters from 'Game of Thrones,' both to put a face to this deranged email, and because Rebecca Martinson has resigned from her post at Delta Gamma,
Reporter Shuts Down Double Kiss Video Bomb
We are so glad Boston field reporter Mike Tobin denied these two girls who attempted to plant one on either cheek while he was in the middle of a report. What kind of person goes up to somebody who's broadcasting a report about a terrorist attack and tries to interrupt it by getting smoochy?
‘Game of Thrones’ Season 3, Episode 4 Recapped in GIFs
Holy moly, *this* was an episode of 'Game of Thrones.' We actually, honestly said many expletives out loud watching it last night. When it was over we felt a little bit like somebody crashed a pair of cymbals right over our head. Now we are sad that we have to wait until next week to see more, so here are some glorious GIFs to help you relive the episode all week long. And remember, it's a HBO sho
15 Oddly Eerie Photos of Boston as a Ghost Town
Boston is currently on lockdown as police continue the manhunt for Dzhokar A. Tsarnaev, the 19-year-old suspect in the Boston Marathon bombing investigation. No people out and about makes for a pretty eerie scene in the town. Here are 15 pictures taken by people and uploaded to Twitter and Instagram to give you an idea of how Boston looks right now. It's pretty bananas. Have a look.
News Anchors Can’t Handle How Dumb Ryan Lochte Is
We would feel bad for Ryan Lochte, except, you know, he won all those Olympic medals. These news anchors are so astounded by his amazing stupidity while promoting his E! reality show that as soon as the interview is over, they began laughing uncontrollably...
Our Favorite Ways Anonymous Has Trolled Westboro Baptist’s Facebook Page
In case you missed it, the ever-horrible Westboro Baptist Church announced they would be picketing at the funerals of the people who died in the Boston Marathon bombing. The church, if you don't know, likes to go around to funerals and say that God hates America for allowing gay marriage, and the death that attendees are mourning is just his wrath. It's basically the definition of awful. Well, the
19 Fails That Probably Cost Someone Their Job
Listen, we get it. Of all people, we get it. Sometimes you let an errant comma slip. Maybe you don't notice that something is a sentence fragment because you're riding the waves of hangover nausea. We understand that sometimes being an editor is rough, but how the how do you wind up with a headline that looks like it says "Rapefruit Good for every meal"?
The Craziest Sorority Girl Email You Will Ever Read
We are once again so very thankful that we went to a school where women with unshaven armpits actually believed they turned into enormous dragons at night, men would show up at the dining hall without pants on and fraternities and sororities were not allowed. Because those folks make Armpit Lady seem like an Ad Council poster child for normalcy.
