Here’s Your New Year’s Resolutions Illustrated By Cats
If on day two of 2013 it's already beginning to feel like it's been an eternity since you've had a drink or a cheeseburger, watch this video. It's cats illustrating the ten most common New Year's Resolutions.
Dad Gets Surprise Puppy, Reacts Adorably
You might think that children are the only people capable of being delighted to the point of preciousness at the sight of a new puppy, but you would be wrong. Look at this manly dad, for example. He bangs on a car, covers his face with adorable fists, and does a little dance...
It’s the Official 2013 New Year Song
If you're having a big party tonight and don't know what to play, you could play this song at the stroke of midnight, if you're the sort of person who plays 'Friday' on Friday just because it's Friday. It's Rhe De Ville's newest New Year's song...
2012’s Dumbest Criminals Are Painfully Dumb
It turns out to make it onto a list of the dumbest criminals, you have to actually be pretty dumb. Granted, we can't all be masterminds, but it probably doesn't take much to know you shouldn't make a YouTube video boasting about the bank you just robbed. Or tweet about punching a guy in the face. Nor should you get into a fist fight over a piece of birthday cake.
Video Shows What Really Happens While Mom Is Away
In case you were wondering what happens when you leave the kids alone with Dad, here's a video to answer all your questions. It's a time lapse video of a dad and his kid playing while mom is at work. Messes are made. Things are climbed upon...
Here’s a Baby Panda Playing With a Ball
Send back the presents -- we really don't need them. We only need this video of a baby panda playing with a ball. Sincerely, watch it and tell us if you don't agree. We think Xiao Liwu, a cub at the San Diego Zoo, is ridiculously adorable. He's the combination of three great things -- pandas, baby animals, and falling over without getting hurt...
The Best Mayan Apocalypse Memes
Well, we really hope the Mayans were wrong. We aren't quite ready for the world to end -- we need to know how 'Breaking Bad' ends. Here are some memes to cheer you up and bolster your confidence that we just might see the sun come up on Saturday after all. Enjoy!
America’s Favorite Families The Kardashians and the ‘Honey Boo Boo Clan’ Offer Up Ridiculous Christmas Cards
We're hard pressed to think of a better way to showcase the two main genres of reality television than this side-by-side comparison of the Thompson (of 'Here Comes Honey Boo Boo' fame) and the Kardashian families' Christmas cards.
‘Gangnam Style’ Has Now Killed a Man
It was really only a matter of time before the force of "nature" that is 'Gangnam Style' took a life. That time has come. A 46-year-old man's heart wasn't quite up to the task of horse shuffle dancing that the song requires, and he had a heart attack at his office's holiday party in Blackburn, Lancashire, England.
See Over 800 Santas Running in Germany
Roughly 800 people put on Santa costumes for the Fourth Annual Michendorf Santa Run in Michendorf, Germany. The race is sponsored by Laufclub Michendorf (which translated means Michendorf Running Club, imagine that) and is 10 kilometers long. You can't quite tell from these pictures, but it actually began snowing pretty hard during the race, which probably makes these the most Christmas-y photos e
Best Breakup Song Ever Written by Couple Who Just Broke Up
Jonathan Mann has written a song a day every day for almost 1,300 days. Seriously. A lot of them are very silly, but he and his girlfriend broke up yesterday, and they did a song about that. It is maybe the best breakup song ever written, because of its sincerity, maturity and plea for friends to still invite both of them to the same parties.
Redditor Parent Makes Hilarious Family Christmas Cards
Aside from that time when a cousin, without a trace of irony, sent a family Christmas card that was a picture of all the kids dressed up in hunting camo holding rifles, these are the best family Christmas cards ever. They were made by Redditor TPThatsMe, and if you go to the post on Imgur, you can also watch a video for how each of the photos came into being.
John Travolta And Olivia Newton-John Reunite to Ruin Christmas
This new Christmas single from John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, which is supposed to be the sequel (song-quel?) to the 'Grease' classic 'You're the One That I Want,' has created a bit of a moral dilemma. Is it wrong to think something is totally worthless, even if it's for charity? Because this is just awful.
First Dog Bo Obama Makes a Great Christmas Tree Inspector
You can love the president or hate him, but you've got to admit this is one cute First Dog. Here's Bo Obama being a very good dog and not knocking over any of the one zillion Christmas trees in the White House as he "inspects" the decorations before it opens to the public and 90,000 people stroll through...
Men Raise $20,000 for Charity With Goofy Webcast
In a heartwarming and wacky video sure to bring you some Christmas spirit, two Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, men acted like buffoons for 24 hours, and in exchange the world gave them money. It's like you want to make fun of them, but then they raised $20,000 for Toys for Tots.

For Your Pleasure, Cats Skydiving to R. Kelly
This is a commercial from Swedish insurance company Folksam. They are customer-owned and so took requests for commercials from their owners, who are also their customers. One customer, Eva, loves cats, apparently so much that nothing would make her happier than throwing a bunch of them out of a plane while R...
