Oh snaps.

Welcome to the internets. Where most of you spend countless hours during the week. We get paid to sit in front of the computer and pretend to do work, but really, we're finding out what Lindsay Lohan had for breakfast and googling awkward pictures of cats. Here's a toast (a blog toast because drinking is NOT allowed during work...) to all of you 40 hours a week craftsmen. Because let's be honest, we are all craftsmen. Do you know how hard it is to quickly exit a facebook browser?

"Valerie" will be featured in the 3D Glee movie!

On August 12th, a 3D version of the Glee concert will hit theaters for only two weeks.  In it, Naya Rivera pays tribute to Amy Winehouse with her performance of "Valerie".  Here's the amazing rendition!



And here's the trailer to the movie!

Lying Down for Buddah

Mercado just sent this picture over to me...it's her and Buddah!

Hey,

No Biggie

Blogger Victoria Hannan has started a really ridiculously cool blog called "no biggie" featuring pictures of incredible people doing all sorts of different things. Check out some of these radical photos below or check them all out HERE.

Who's excited?!

Anyone going to see the new Smurfs movie this weekend?  Nope?  Anybody?  Okay then...
Apparently the new movie has gotten a 0% rating on Rotten Tomatos.  ZERO PERCENT.  Wow that has to suck.  Other movies that have gotten a big fat 0: Battlefield Earth, Freddy got Fingered, From Justin to Kelly and Gigli.



Rachel Zoe's $87K Nursery


I die.  This shit is bananas.

Rachel Zoe showed off her baby's nursery to ABC and pretty much made the world feel homeless.

"Zoe proudly showed off Skyler’s $1,160 Gucci bomber jacket, as well as his $3,700 shoe collection. Though the infant is too young to walk, his footwear options include a $150 pair of Tod’s loafers (among several other high-end labels). Skyler’s shoes are kept in an Oeuf mini-library, which retails for $650.


Skyler also owns a $1,400 Hermes blanket (with two matching $522 cushions) in his $914 crib. Should Skyler want to sleep somewhere else, he also has a $1,000 wooden bassinet.

Other pricey items in Skyler’s nursery include a giant stuffed giraffe ($163), a silver piggy bank ($1,355) and $78,000 worth of designer clothing, according to estimates by The Daily Mail"

We're getting there...

A French Artist, Nils Guadagnin has created a "Hoverboard".  Although it can't hold any people on it right now, it's definitely getting there!  It really levitates!  Check it out...

Tears of Joy

I will never understand sports fans.  Then again, I cry during every episode of Glee.

Almost the Weekend...

We've almost made it...tomorrow is FRIDAY!!!!! That means par-tay. I will leave you with this little gem of a picture. This rodent is ready for the weekend:

So True.

SO GAY!

So true...





Feeling Blue?

My mom recently sent me this picture asking "Is this too much blue?"

It's like when your friends asks you "is this slutty?"....if you have to ask - IT. IS.


p.s. take note of the orange ensemble she was also debating...god bless parents.

The Simpsons Theme Song

This is so cool. Watch this very talented guitar player play the Simpsons Theme song:

Teach Me How To Plank

This video kind of annoys me. The concept is good, the idea was there, but the execution was obnoxious. And for some reason, the main guy seems really angry throughout. Anyway, check it out for yourselves and see if you would like this guy to teach you how to plank. (Also, I want to remind everyone that we've been playing the Lying Down Game since before this 'planking' phenomenon ever started).

Japan's 9-Hours Capsule Hotel

The 9 Hours Capsule Hotel in Kyoto, Japan is getting a lot of attention for their efficient and minimalist approach to staying in a hotel. Check out the video and decide for yourself, would you stay in this capsule hotel?

Shark Week!

Shark Week is Coming!!! This post is dedicated to our resident Fishery Friend Keripedia. I bet she'd like to take a ride on this bus!

Childs First Toy

I introduce to you Pee & Poo. These are just weird. Next generation of beanie babies? I'd hate to see the next set of plush bowel movements they come up with...

The Carlton

Man, I really loved watching the Fresh Prince of Bel Air. The Carlton Dance was definitely one of the highlights of that show:

Overhear in a Text

Joke from Mercado:

Why did the Hipster burn her mouth?

.......


Because she ate the pizza before it was cool.


Thanks, Merc.

Principal and Teacher Caught Doing Meth

Well, this is completely bizarre and unnerving news out of West Virginia. A public vocational school was shut down because there were tons of traces of meth found in the principal's office, random hallways, bathroom and ducts.

A teacher, Jack Turley, admitted to using meth with Principal Keith Phipps during school hours in the principals office.

Are you KIDDING ME. People are putting their children in the hands of these school officials and they are smokin' meth?! What the fuck. Also, what in the world are meth traces doing in the bathrooms, hallways and ducts?? Responsibility, people. It's important you don't smoke meth when you are the principal of a school.


PS You Are Mean

Oh my god, this is amazing. I'm pretty sure I would never stop laughing if a child wrote me this note.

It reads: "I am runing away becas you think I farted when i dident. Ps you are mean"
BRILLIANT.

I'm now Unbreakable.

Number of compliments I've gotten about my perfume:
2   4.

Number of those people that are probably over the age of 60:  4.

Number of those people that are my parents who are obligated to give me compliments:  2

Am I going to continue to wear Khloe and Lamar's unisex scent?  DUH.

Every 90's song - Acapella Song

Please listen to this.  Please enjoy it.  Please get as excited as I did because it's really fucking amazing.  Seriously, it reminds me of the "Jock Jams" albums.  Ugh.  I wish I was dancing with my friends in a middle school dance right now.

For all of you cheapos

Here's some good advice.  Why do I feel some of the people I know will really bookmark this post and use it as a reference?  Oh wait, that's what I just did.

PS I drink all of this shit even when I'm not broke.

Turtle doesn't look like a turtle anymore!

Whoa!  Jerry Ferarra who plays Turtle on HBO's Entourage lost a bunch of weight and looks fucking great!  How did this happen?  More importantly, when did this happen??

Side note:  If you want a piece of the Turtle, you can most likely find him at Fat Sal's Deli in Westwood (he's the owner).



I mean, I'll do it.

Okay,
Ke$ha look fucking good in these photos.  I don't really know what's going on, but she cleans up pretty well!  Guess she got a hold of some soap and a shower - congrats girl!

I mean, I'll do it.



Summertime

Dear Corey, Keri, Alli, Daniel, Kareem, Brooks and Jayme-

Can we put this song on repeat this weekend?
Ok, thank you.

Law & Order: SVU Drinking Game.

I'm going to start playing this.  Considering that I watch thousands of episodes a week, I might as well be getting drunk...

What rules would you add?

Cash Money Gamers

Well these aren't a waste of money...oh wait, ya they are. Here's a list of the world's most expensive game gear - complete with a 8.1 million dollar iPad 2 and 8 million dollar Diamond Rose edition iPhone 4. Suck on that Steve Jobs.






This 8.1 million dollar iPad 2 is made with gold and packed with diamonds. The really absurd part? The frame has splinters and shavins from a 65 million yr old Tyrannosaurus Rex thigh bone. WTF?












A $490,00 22 carat Gold Wii console complete with 78 diamonds making up the front buttons, each .25 carats.




Check out the whole list HERE

Overheard from Las Vegas...

"Don't worry. My mom just bought me Khloe and Lamar's Unbreakable"

Viral Videos Going Viral

So here's a cool concept. On October 10, 2010 people shot videos of issues that mattered to them in their lives - it was called One Day on Earth.

The outcome? 3,000 hours worth of footage and this awesome video culmination!



Get your cameras ready - the next "One Day on Earth" is happening November 11, 2011!

Dancing Twins

I can't tell if I think this is cute or weird or a little bit creepy, but it's definitely worth watching these two twins dance to that Bruno Mars song "Lazy Song."

NSYNC


When I look at this picture, I can't believe how obsessed I was with this boy band back in the day. I mean, LOOK AT THEM. First of all, WTF are they wearing? Second of all, WHY were girls so obsessed with these people who looked like pre-pubescent bartenders cruising the islands alongside Tom Cruise in Cocktail? Did I really think Justin Timberlake was sexy enough to warrant an entire wall shrine devoted to him and him only in my teenage room? And, what in the world is with the point that whats-his-name doing in the bottom right corner of this picture? He looks like a serial killer.

Work.

This is how I'm feeling today at work.

Halloween in July

Halloween isn't for another 2 months, these guys are way aHEAD of the game - pun intended.



Who has time to do this? Regardless, it's entertaining.

Where's Waldo?

God knows.

A friend for $14.99

FYI:  You can buy a Wilson volleyball (exactly like the one on Castaway) on Amazon for $14.99.  Just sayin'.

Welp, I'm off to Vegas.  See you guys in a couple o' days!!

Ouch.

Hey Ya!!

These twins sure know how to work it -
Check them out!  It's freaking adorable.  They dance better than I do and they're only about 4 years old.  Even better is that it's to Outkast's "Hey Ya!"  CUUUUUUUTE!!

Too soon

Dear New York Post,

I think you should give it a minute.

XoXo,
Everyone.

TGIF

Ok, so I know it's Monday but here's an awesome song dedicated to everyone who grew up watching TGIF every Friday.  I completely grew up in the 90's watching "Step by Step," "Family Matters" and "Full House."  The song kind of sucks, but it does bring back some memories...

Is it Friday yet?

Manhattan's First Legal Gay Marriage!

Granted!

This is adorable -
Check out this couple who has been together for 25 years - they met in a senior citizen housing facility and have been waiting for this moment for the longest time.  Congrats to the happy couple!  PS It's about fucking time!

This cat would be so annoying to live with!

Talk about OCD, this cat hates wrinkles in your sheets.  Can you imagine living with him?!  Sheesh!!

RIP Amy Winehouse


If you haven't heard the news yet, Amy Winehouse has passed away.  The 27 year old singer was known for her 2006 album "Back to Black" which quickly shot her to fame because of her soulful voice.  She joins the group of talented musicians who have all died at the age of 27.  The 27 Club includes Kurt Cobain, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison.  Winehouse was found in her London apartment dead.  According to her security guard she died alone in bed...Rest in peace Amy Winehouse.  Your album was plan nonstop in college...

Coreyography

A couple of weeks ago our amazing group of friends did a flashmob-esque performance for Corey.  Daniel wanted to surprise her with an impromptu dance for their 1 year anniversary and I was so stoked because I love surprises and I love flashmobs!  Our good friend Morgan also came down from Seattle for 24 hours - yes, she flew, partied like a rockstar and then got on a flight the next morning to head back.  Here is the video for our flashmob - check it out!  PS The "fight" at the beginning is with Corey's brother Sean.  He wasn't into dancing at first but obviously he got into it.  NBD.

And this is why I love my friends...

Can You Caddy?

I don't even like golf, but in keeping up with Tiga-Tiga Woods Y'all mocking tradition - see if you have what it takes to be Tiger Woods' new caddy...the application looks grueling.

Booze-Induced Bakery

Go to New York and go to Jane's Sweet Buns. Even though the place looks like a pack of skittles threw up all over it, their "last call" is midnight on the weekends and everything you eat has booze in it. Score.

Texas Teen Killed a Chupacabra?

A teen in Texas shot an animal that is believed to be a real life Chupacabra.  Carter Pope woke up and saw the beast near his home and shot it 3 times.  He didn't know what it was at first but after shooting it, he's convinced it's a chupacabra.  El Chupacabra originated in Puerto Rico around 1995 after a bunch of blood-drained goats started surfacing.  El Chupacabra is descriped  as a bipedal creature, 4-5 feet tall with spikes down its back, long thin arms and legs and an alien-like oblong head with red or black eyes...

Bear had jug stuck on his head for 3 weeks!

A black bear whose head was stuck inside a plastic jug for three weeks was finally found and saved!  The bear was originally seen on June 28 and people have been trying for days to help him out but he kept getting away.  He was finally caught in the foothills of the Tennessee Smoky Mountains.  He's in great condition - the only thing wrong is that he lost a bunch of weight.  I'm going to get my head stuck in a jug to lose some weight.  Come save me in a couple of weeks!

Not so Great White

Yesterday off the coast of South Africa a group of researchers had an unpleasant(?) surprise when a Great White Shark jumped into their boat. Sweet.







I was just trying to enjoy my Corona and Captain Hat. You sir, are a total buzz kill.










They said the shark "panicked" - wtf do SHARKS panick from? Oh right, other sharks. Well apparently it got lost once they pulled it off the boat and had to walk it through the water out into the ocean...just your typical Thursday.



Anyway, Shark Week starts next weekend. I'm pumped.
