You know, it’s got to be pretty embarrassing if you get stuck in a wall.  I mean, it’s okay for a cute little hedgehog to get stuck in a wall, because it’s a hedgehog.  It has a brain the size of a walnut; you don’t expect it to be smart enough not to crawl halfway into a hole it can’t fit all the way through.  But when you’re a 22-year-old man who gets stuck trying to break into a supermarket, you should be smart enough to know when you can’t fit.  You should also be smart enough not to lose your pants.

The Romanian was apparently trying to sneak his way into a window in Lisbon, Portugal.  Why did he lose his pants?  Nobody knows.  Maybe someone noticed he was stuck and pantsed him, to remind him that crime does not pay?  Or maybe someone pantsed him just because it’s funnier that way.  You never know.

It’s one of my favorite XKCD strips of all time:  XKCD Loves The Discovery Channel.  And now it’s come to life in what has to be the ultimate tribute to the Internet thanks to Olga Nunes, featuring puppets, Neil Gaiman, Wil Wheaton, Cory Doctrow, Miss Cellania, Google Zurich, and pretty much everyone of any importance […]

Everyone who has ever seen the news is vaguely familiar with the formula of how a standard news piece is put together.  When it’s not a breaking news story, just something they want to push a report on, there’s a pretty standard template of how to do it.  Newswipe, a BBC Four TV news satire […]

This is great.  Pee-wee Herman is all excited about his new iPad, only to get dragged down to earth by his friends at the Playhouse, who point out just how non-revolutionary the Apple iPad has turned out to be.  If you’re a fan of the old Pee-wee’s Playhouse, or if you’re just not a follower […]

This is quite possibly the funniest commercial I’ve ever seen.  Shockingly, it’s for big-box retail megagiant Walmart.  Not only do they own everything, and make more money than most of the world’s countries, now they’re also making some of the best ads to hit television.  When I saw this one during the AFC Championship Game, […]

The Jay Leno/Conan O’Brien/NBC situation is getting a lot of publicity and news coverage.  From Coco’s Craigslist solicitation on, it’s just getting stranger and stranger.  However, there’s nothing stranger than this weird Chinese news cartoon from NMA News about the situation.  From the people who brought you the amazingly weird Tiger Woods reenactment, here’s another […]

 
There are two things everyone loves:  cute things and explosions.  Well, I like cute things and explosions anyway.  That’s where the brilliant new website Cute Things Exploding comes in.  They take your favorite viral videos and have them all end with something adorable blowing to smithereens.  While YesButNoButYes describes the site as “designed by a […]

If you were shopping for Gatorade in Longmont, Colorado today, you might have sensed something was a bit amiss.  Gatorade, long represented by Tiger Woods, was the target of an unusual art project.  Well, the creator calls it pop art; the Food and Drug Administration may call it tampering or adulteration.  Over 1000 bottles of […]
