Once a vid goes viral on the Internet, the peeps in it become the stuff of website chatter, email trails, talk show appearances, and if they're extremely lucky, commercials and modeling deals. No joke. Groovy Dancing Girl's debut performance left everyone entranced and wanting more, including Etam denim, a French fashion label. She's its new spokesperson, model, and dancer extraordinaire. Watch this ad and try to resist wanting your own pair of these jazzy jammin' jeans. They're not gonna move this way for all of us, but here's to hoping . . .
I love how the card was homemade especially for this kid's Mom, who is merely referred to as "someone special." How wonderfully generic. Hallmark would be proud.

When sinning is out of the question, creative methods of anger management are key.

It looks as though "White Owl" hasn't changed his gametime wardrobe since 1971, which is when he attended his very first Kansas Jayhawks game. But our bearded buddy knows how to work it. In fact, his free-flowing beads and tie dye earned him a best dressed nomination, an on-camera interview, and an impromptu talent show. (I use the word "talent" loosely, of course.)
Boobs v. Moobs: Court Ruling Sparks Censorship Debate
England is bringing the "are moobs the same as boobs?" controversy to the courts! (You can't see me jumping for joy over here, but I am. Trust.) A man recently got away with secretly filming another man in his swimming trunks at a public pool because it was declared legal to ogle a man's chest but not a woman's breasts. Here's my favorite part of the news article, which you can read by clicking here: "This was the case even if the man in question was obese, and had 'man breasts' or 'moobs. . .' " Another judge has overturned the ruling because the judge in the first case, he claims, "failed properly to explain to the jury the difference between breasts and chest." Wow. May I be a juror? Please, please?!
Muscle man Jack LaLanne — "the godfather of fitness" — was a successful bodybuilder back in the day. The following vid was intended to be an instructional home workout aid, but all I see is Jack flexing and showing off for the camera. At one point he even says, "Don't try this at home." Some workout! But the real kicker comes at the end when Jack makes an unwarranted sexist assumption. Since when is negative reinforcement the strategy for getting people into shape?
Cats must have gotten the memo that — except among a subset of folks called (unfairly, if you asked me) "crazy cat ladies" — they've got a pretty bad reputation. It seems some of the feline persuasion are doing damage control. Kitty PR, if you will. They're sending out cat ambassadors who do things like follow instructions, enjoy water, and fetch. Good job, guys! (I secretly prefer the inscrutable, lazy and indifferent versions but that's why I'm a CCL.)
If it seems like hate on Bill O'Reilly week that's because it is! Haha. Come on, now, anyone who's seen him go off on his guests when they don't say what he wants, or viewed this vintage example of his a-holery, know he's no innocent. And although we don't see much of Geraldo Rivera now, back in the day, this dude really brought television journalism down to the gutter by sensationalizing every damn story and baiting people. (Plus he stepped on my foot once and didn't apologize.) Anyhoo. . .which pompous windbag would you let near you naked, if you had to. . .

If you're like me, you can't get enough of Bill O'Reilly gettin' his. Someone imagines what the hapless producer must've been saying on his end to get Bill so freaking, psychotically riled up. How about, "How can anyone have a head that large without anything in it?" Ha! Why is this so fun?
As Baby Boomers continue to age, marketers cater to every vain concern they have, from their fear of looking old, to male Boomers' decreased ability to, uh, make boom-boom. Who's trying to cash in on erectile dysfunction now? (Hint: I'm not asking for the brand, but for the product or service this advertises.)
If you've never heard of the film I Could Never Be Your Woman, you're in good company. I don't know if it's worth watching in full, but I sure enjoyed this clip of Paul Rudd showing off for his date, Michelle Pfeiffer. He moves through virtually every corny dance that ever existed, from the two-step to some weird Broadway shuffle. I love a man who can dance, but I really love a man who doesn't mind making a fool out of himself. (Next to Mark Ruffalo, is there any cuter guy in Hollywood?)
As you can see, everything we do here is a collaborative enterprise.

Have Tom and Jerry finally made amends? Or are they conniving frenemies, merely playing it cool for the camera? Mr. Mouse looks the most at ease, oddly enough, but he better munch on his din-din with one eye on kitty watch. Someone seems to be saving her appetite for later . . .
Some techy guys feel emasculated when women know as much about geeky stuff as they do. Imagine throwing the teeny weeny disk drive into the mix. A few particularly insecure types would have a nervous breakdown! When I asked geeksugar if she was interested in writing this up (and the answer was a resounding "no!"), she imagined a scenario when she might use it. "Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen," she quipped, "while I get ready for my presentation. . ." Hahaha! I'd pay to see her (or anyone) do that.
