So now we know two things that can cause a dog to flip out: A big, soft, comfortable bed . The U.S. Open quarterfinal showdown between Venus Williams and Serena Williams. In the following video, a Golden Retriever named George simply cannot contain his excitement. Don't you understand?!? Serena has a chance to win the Grand Slam this year! Venus has the chance to deny her sibling this historical feat! And the match is going to a third set! How are you not more excited about this, human owner?!? Eh, whatever. Just leave me alone and let me jump around with my tennis ball, okay?!? We can't stop watching this.
Kansas State University makes no apologies for its 34-0 victory over South Dakota to open the 2015 football season. But Kansas State University is very sorry for what took place during halftime of that dominating win. The school's band attempted to combine scenes from Star Trek and Star Wars for its performance on Saturday, with the members forming rival University of Kansas' mascot (a Jayhawk) and what was meant to be the starship Starship Enterprise crashing into it. Except… well… watch this video. That Enterprise totally resembles a penis, something pretty much everyone on Twitter pointed out. The Marching Band Director took to Facebook in order to illustrate the band's intention and wrote along with a blueprint of the routine: “The chart below represents the drill from tonight’s show. There was absolutely no intent to display anything other than the Enterprise and the Jayhawk in battle. If I am guilty of anything it would be the inability to teach the drill in a manner that these young people could have succeeded.” “I do apologize for the misinterpretation and I assure you that I meant absolutely no disrespect or malice toward the University of Kansas.”

Keep trying, Florida Man. Keep trying. In the following video, an unidentified Florida man really does not want to have his SUV towed. So he does want pretty much any Florida Man would do: he gets behind the wheel, puts the car in drive and revs the engine… while it's attached to a tow truck. “This guy isn't having a good day,” writes the awesome dude who posted the footage on YouTube. The incident allegedly took place in Orlando and appears to have gone down in front of some kind of Indian market. And that's really all we know at the moment. But when it comes to stuff Florida Man does , we can't make a lot of sense out of it even when we do more many more details.
Another llama just got loose in America. Six months after the country lost its collective mind over footage of llamas running wild in Arizona , a similar incident took place this week in North Carolina. According to the report featured here, a llama named Phantom broke free from his enclosure and hit the quiet streets of Buncombe County, flummoxing both local residents and reporters alike. Fortunately (for us), videographer John Boyle was on hand to capture the moment that Phantom moved from a golf course to a field, as we see him being chased by lurching and mostly helpless bystanders. Eventually, after THREE HOURS, the llama was apprehended and no person or animal was injured. That means it's okay to watch this footage and laugh. Enjoy!
When Caitlyn Jenner covered Vanity Fair back in June, the response on social media was overwhelmingly positive. With the release of her first photo as Cait (previously referred to only as “her”), Jenner became the most famous transgender individual on the planet. It’s hard to think of another magazine photo that represented such monumental progress for a downtrodden sector of society. Unfortunately, with progress comes vocal opposition from those who are threatened by change. Caitlyn was mocked and threatened by thousands social media messages. Now, one artist has turned all of that hate into something beautiful: British artist Conor Collins took thousands of death threats and other bigoted messages posted for Caitlyn online and used them to recreate her iconic VF photo. “When I saw these I wanted to show them because it is a reality of what trans people experience every day,” Collins tells The Hollywood Reporter. “It was horrible having to research and write the tweets onto the canvas…For every person who sees it another person is shown the persecution and real danger trans people face. I don’t know if Caitlyn has seen it herself yet though, would be interesting to see what she thought about it if she did.” As with Caitlyn’s coming out , the response to Collins’ has been mostly positive, but has also generated some negative responses: “Trans people are people’s brothers, sisters, children, friends, mothers and fathers,” says Collins. “I hope Caitlyn and her program may help people realize that.” Several fans of Collins’ work have tweeted photos of it to Caitlyn in hopes that she’ll share how the project made her feel.

You might think that the first Republican primary debate couldn't possibly get any funnier, but the folks at Bad Lip Reading are about to prove you wrong. Yes, they've given you bad lip reads of the NFL and the priceless comedy of the Redneck Avengers , but now the BLR crew is taking on its easiest target yet: Trump. Gone are the ridiculous attacks on Rosie O'Donnell . Instead, we get Trump's true feelings on tuna melts and more information than we'd like about what they do to his digestive tract. There's also talk of dead mice on crescent rolls, Chris Christie's views on potatoes (He likes 'em!) and Rand Paul's thoughts on frozen babies. Actually, that last one might be a topic the candidates actually touched on in the real debate. We're not sure; we tend to briefly lose consciousness after listening to the Donald speak.
Lindsey Swift is our new hero. This United Kingdom native was out for a run with her boyfriend last week when some total loser rolled down his car window and galled at Swift about her weight. Similar to the mother of five who stood up to a bully by showing off her stretch marks , though, Swift did not sit back and let this moron bring her down. Instead, Lindsey took to Facebook and fired back an open letter to the “idiot who thought it was ok to heckle me with fat jokes.” It reads: Your comment was a clear indication of both your incredibly witty repartee and a feat of observational comedy. I am indeed a big girl, and I am indeed beautiful. Thanks for noticing. I’m not sure who you were telling I was fat, you clearly have eyes, and the only other people present were me and my boyfriend. I assure you that despite your concern I do own a mirror, and my boyfriend has seen my fat body as he too has eyes. Don’t tell anyone but I think he might even like it. Swift went on to say that “idiots are idiots” are typically she lets these kinds of comments slide right off her. But what about victims with less self-confidence than she possesses? Let me make one thing very clear, I am not ashamed of my body. It has never stopped me from doing anything I want. My fat body has done things that you, hanging out of the window of your babe-magnet white van could only ever dream of. Going on to say she plans to run a 10K and that it “baffles” her why anyone would try to discourage that kind of effort, Swift concludes in powerful fashion: I feel sorry for you. Your behaviour is not normal, and your manners are well below par. Most importantly though, I forgive you. Here’s hoping that anyone with a goal, fat or thin, isn’t put off by this kind of thing. I know I haven’t been. See. Like we said: Lindsey Swift is our new hero.
Nathan Griffith absolutely tore Jenelle Evans a new one on last night's Teen Mom 2 Season 6 Episode 6 , which was an intense installment. By this show's standards, that's saying something too. What exactly prompted the fight is not clear in this clip, but Nathan previously accused Jenelle of cheating on him. And that's not even all. He took off for a few days – supposedly – offering few details, then showed up at home right after texting Evans supposedly from Atlanta. Baiting her, he asks if she's going out that night with a huge grin on his face, as if he knows something she doesn't … or is totally insane. Soon enough, he erupts, saying the past two days out of town were the best of his LIFE, calling Jenelle Evans trailer trash and worse. Watch the confrontation unfold above, as Griffith labels the Teen Mom 2 star a sociopath and a psycho … and asks for his ring back. Her response? Pretty epic.
HA! We have another entry to add to our ever-growing collection of hilariously awesome moments in news broadcasts. CKPG TV, a station in Canada, recently aired a report about the growth of fresh food in the International Space Station. It was actually pretty interesting and it delivered some fascinating pieces of information to the viewer. And when the report was finished airing, an anchor followed it up with a Uranus joke… which he seemed to immediately regret. We understand it's hard to resist a good Uranus joke, but perhaps this journalist should have had a better feel for his audience before opening his mouth.
