Another day post of stuff that didn’t necessarily deserve it’s own post:
- Via Swiss Miss: Check out these pancakes.
- Also via Swiss Miss: I like when being confirmed in my distaste for Facebook.
- Watch a anti-fracking ad from Britain because it involves cartoon farting. Almost as good as the wanking London. Via TO.
- Wanna see a short clip of Andre 3000 as Jimi Hendrix for the biopic? It’s a real tease, but I clicked it to see, so maybe you will find it worth it.
- I like Tame Impala and Kendrick Lamar. How about a song with both of them?
- I think album trailers are bullshit, but I did click it, so you probably want to also hear an album trailer for Julian Casablancas’ new album.
- Game of Thrones mixtape? Featuring Big Boi, Common and Daddy Yankee?
- Mark Wahlberg in the new Transformers, huh?
- Another week, another mental floss video worth watching.
- I have always wondered why this candle that melts into a new candle didn’t exist already. Vis SM.

- Jimmy Fallon did a parody of Born To Run, changing the words to be about the tollway problems in Jersey, with Springsteen himself. Though it is not as good as Fallon performing Reading Rainbow theme song as the Doors. Fucking amazing. Via Mike.
- Pretty funny prank on Houston Rockets players coming out of their locker room by their mascot. Via TO.
- Funny new mascot for the Chicago Cubs, funnier is how Comcast broadcast a parody version with a dick and balls on tv. Via a bunch of people’s facebook.
