    • So the instagram account, Hot Dudes reading, would just be for the ladies if it were not for the funny comments about each. Check out BoredPanda for a bunch of good ones.
    • Talking about funny social media accounts, check out Nihilist Arby’s twitter account. Sample tweet: “The birth of your child, your first snowfall, a shooting star: All meaningless in the face of the void. Arby’s: may as well order the large.” or: “McDonalds is trying to buy you with love. Check out THIS counter offer: suffer and let Arby’s be your fuel. Die.”
    • The new Kendrick Lamar track, The Blacker the Berry, is pretty good.
    • With exception to the Counting Crows song, Einstein on the Beach, on the cd DGC Rarities, compilations put together by a label usually do not include great songs from bands.  The band LVL UP did something great and did a cover of Adam Sandler’s Somebody Kill Me Please from the Wedding Singer.
    • This is a video of a bachelor party/prank where a bunch of guys reenact Rambo for the unknowing groom. Wait till you have some time, cause it is a half hour long.
    • If you liked the movie-essay video I posted before, you should check out this video, The Problem with Action Movies Today, or this essay about Drive‘s quandrant system of framing shots.
    • The new Amy Schumer movie, Trainwreck, looks funny.
    • Shout Factory is a company that has rights to a lot of old television show and movies and has their own site to watch them for free-zies. Via Awesomer.
    • I watched the movie, Chef, on Netflix the other day and have been repeating this song ever since:

    • Netflix launched this site where you can watch spoilers and also determine which ones are acceptable to talk about.
    • WGN morning news had a pretty funny promo. Via Awesomer.
    • KLM Airlines has a dog that will find you to bring you your lost stuff.
    • Did you know Anheuser-Busch produces cans of water for people in need of clean water?
    • This little Irish girl scolding her parents is pretty funny.
    • If you aren’t watching John Oliver, you probably should.  Here is a story on Miss America.
    • Watch this hilariously blown wedding proposal.
    • This dancing crosswalk sign is an advertisement, but its a clever advertisement.

    Another group of stuff:

    • Wanna know what someone thinks the most Iconic movie shots are?
    • Did you know that Terry Crews is a very good artist?  I guess there was a reason it was written into Brooklyn Nine Nine.
    • There is a new Mental Floss episode about college traditions, but there is also a new show called The Big Question that is worth a watch.
    • And that Adam Levine does some good impressions?
    • All this DIY / Technology shit looks so cool.
    • Did you know that Walmart Ice Cream Sandwiches don’t melt?
    • NFL players read mean tweets about them:

    Bunch of randoms that didn’t deserve their own post:

    • Wanna know the proper way to eat sushi? Via Swiss Miss.
    • So I might be in house mode, but this place is fucking sweet. Also via Swiss Miss.
    • How about a 99 pack of beer? Via Uncrate.
    • If you’ve seen Guardians of the Galaxy, here is one of those “Things You didn’t Know about..” of it.
    • A one legged break-dancer?

    • A dude realized he didn’t take any pictures of his wife when she was pregnant, so he hired a photographer to take them of himself. Hilarious.
    • Ever wanted to know the origin of common symbols of user interfaces? Via Swissmiss.
    • This one’s for Neil because loves animated gifs: there is an imgur collection of images titled “Reddit Users Were Asked To Sum Up Their First Sexual Experience With A GIF”.  Very funny. Via Andy from at the office.
    • With Nora finishing her last paper, I though the “Most Disastrous Typos” article was entertaining. Via Pop Candy.
    • Ever wonder what the peak month for a movie with a cow in it? Time figured it out. (but who sponsored that article?) Via Pop Candy.
    • I’ve linked to Cinefix’s Youtube page before, but I keep finding things worth watching.  You could probably check out the bunch of lists they have been putting up, like Top 10 Fight Scenes or the most memorable moments in editing.  I really liked this set of videos called “Film School’d” which was posted before and now include how “Soviet Psych Experiments Lead To Rocky” or a “25k Bet Gave Rise To Hollywood.”
    • And finally, according to Adam Janowski, Scotty is correct (in this commercial you’ve probably seen if you watch sports and/or watch television):

     

    (I also love Charles Barkley saying “pacifist”.)
