‘Ryan Gosling Won’t Eat His Cereal’ Is the Best Use of Vine Yet
God bless the folks at Gosloving, for sharing these Vines of Ryan Gosling not eating his cereal with the world (they have more). They are so absurd. However, because they feature Ryan Gosling, they are also delightful. Our favorite is probably the one where he smacks the spoon onto the floor. Just like a kid would do! But it's not a kid, it's Ryan Gosling. Sigh.

World Snooker Championships Interrupted by Massive Farts
If you're not familiar with snooker, congratulations on not being a 60-year-old British man! Also, it's kind of like billiards, and so spectators are expected to maintain silence when watching a game

The Best Dove Beauty Sketches Parodies
Surely you've seen this ad from Dove, in which a forensic sketch artist draws women as they describe themselves, then as other women describe them, then everybody starts crying? If not, it's here for the watching, just to give you some context before we settle in to what this is really all about -- making fun of that ad.

16 Photos of Quokkas, aka Your New Favorite Animal
If you're anything like us, right now you're probably mentally screaming, "WHAT? What is this?!! How have I never seen this adorable creature anymore?" Don't feel too bad -- it's a quokka, and it lives primarily on some islands off the coast of Australia, and is currently listed as being a "vulnerable" animal. So it's not like they're walking around all over the place.

The Funniest Moments From the 2013 White House Correspondents’ Dinner
The annual White House Correspondents' dinner took place this past weekend, and it was a delight. We honestly think it was probably the best performance at one of these dinners since Stephen Colbert roasted George W. Bush right in front of him (this makes us cringe a little bit less though). Only we aren't talking about Conan O'Brien -- we're talking about President Obama, who really hammed it up this year.

Men and Kittens Basically Has to Be Your Favorite Tumblr
French Tumblr Des Hommes et des Chatons (Men and Kittens) makes us wonder -- do we like kittens because they remind us of hunky dudes, or do we like hunky dudes because they remind us of kittens? Or, are they both great and this is the best Tumblr evvvaaar?! Probably that last one.

The Craziest Sorority Girl Email You Will Ever Read
We are once again so very thankful that we went to a school where women with unshaven armpits actually believed they turned into enormous dragons at night, men would show up at the dining hall without pants on and fraternities and sororities were not allowed. Because those folks make Armpit Lady seem like an Ad Council poster child for normalcy.

12 People Who Did an Excellent Job of Quitting
We saw this amazing resignation cake and got inspired. Not to quit our jobs, but to admire the ways others have in the past. Our most "creative" quit was telling the owner of a Chinese buffet over the phone that they couldn't yell at us anymore, because we quit so there. Compared to these, that just isn't that impressive.

Enjoy (to a point, then feel really sick a
