This was a big football weekend. The Bowl Championship Series in American college football was shaken up as Texas Tech got killed by Oklahoma, Michigan got beaten by Ohio State, Penn State locked up octogenarian Joe Paterno’s first trip to the Rose Bowl since 1995, and throughout the country, rivalry games were everywhere. However, the […]

I wasn’t a cat fan until I actually got one, now I can’t get enough of the crazy little critters. Actually, that’s not entirely true, the one I have is more than enough cat for me to deal with, but I love seeing people’s cute videos of cats. Take, for example, Slinky Cat. Isn’t that […]

People will do a lot of crazy things to get into the Guinness Book of World Records, but an army of rubber ducks doesn’t cause any headache as bad as the ones Asha Mandela must suffer. Ms. Mandela, you see, might have the world’s longest dreadlocks. When I get my hair cut, I feel lighter […]

Remember the story yesterday about Yves Rossy, the Jet Man who was going to fly across the English Channel?  Well, today, he did it.  He took off over France, flew 22 miles across the Channel, and landed successfully in Dover in less than 10 minutes.  The BBC has the incredible video taken by the National […]

Cats can do some pretty awesome things. Cats can also do some pretty funny things, as I found out once I got a cat of my own. Check out this insane video of a cat that has learned the secrets of the ninja. Well, the cat isn’t quite a ninja, as it was caught on […]

Sometimes I just love people. Take, for example, this guy in a bear suit who showed up during KHOU TV in Houston’s coverage of Hurricane Ike. Even while Galveston’s getting pounded by massive waves, this dude’s out there having a good time. Sick as it might be, I haven’t laughed so hard in quite some […]

Don LaFontaine, who passed away this morning at Cedars Sinai Hospital at age 68, wasn’t a man you’d know by looking at him. He’s been deeply involved in the entertainment industry for 33 years and he’s been featured prominently in over 5,000 movie trailers, but he could walk down the street and not even gather […]

Thomas Beatie, the famous pregnant man you read about first at Pop Fi, is definitely not a hoax. On June 29, Beatie and his partner (girlfriend, wife? I’m not sure how it works when it comes to pregnant men and their lady friends) welcomed a 9.5lb baby girl, Susan Juliette, into the world. She’s an […]

Who doesn’t love a conspiracy theory? Everything from Roswell and Area 51 to the Grassy Knoll have been debated as potential cover-ups by the U.S. government. It seems Google Moon may have exposed another one of the government’s secrets – the faking of the lunar landing mission. Or at least The Vactioneers have done another […]

I actually watched some goofy TV game show for the first time where contestants tried to recall the lyrics to popular songs with $$$ on the line. The top prize was a million bucks, but I’m guessing no one is ever going to grab that brass ring. It was like watching drunks in a bar […]

Everyone knows we love a viral video here at Pop Fi. Whether it’s an office worker going insane, an ugly divorce situation or the Obama kid, we try to keep on spreading the video love. One of the latest to hit the Intertubes is a clip of folks using cell phones to heat up some […]

I ran across this video produced at the Savannah College of Art and Design that is pretty cool and creepy. After you watch this one, you’ll never look at a No. 2 pencil in the same way again. It’s got a weird Alice in Wonderland kind of vibe. I wonder what would happen if you […]

What’s more annoying than a cutesy kid on a Hummel figurine? How about annoying kids in real life. They run around like maniacs while their parents are often oblivious to the distractions and mayhem their “little darlings” are causing whether it’s during a concert or ceremony, at restaurants and stores or just in the neighborhood. […]

Unlike classic video games which people search high and low on the Internet to find, certain video games get a bad rap. You shoot a few people, including some cops, steal some cars, boats and planes or blow up some stuff and suddenly you’re the scourge of the gaming world. The Grand Theft Auto game […]

Any good motorist has some emergency supplies in their car.  Even most of us bad motorists carry around extra oil, radiator fluid, and a spare tire.  If you’re prepared, you’ll have a pry bar, maybe a flashlight or some flares, and even a spare blanket.  Even if you don’t have any of that stuff, you’ve […]
