9gag

9gag is a simple microblog that features humorous, beautiful, or non-sensical images. Can we talk about how I hate starting sentences with numerical digits? It's an affront to grammar. But I didn't want to break tradition here.

Anyway, on 9gag you can navigate the blog with the keyboard letters k and j, as well as loving things with a quick L keystroke. Lots of hits and misses. Enjoy!

Crying Sorority Girl

Granted, this viral video made the rounds starting back in 2008. But it's just too hilarious to not resurrect!

Seems the wanna-be Alpha Chi wanted to create a special winter wonderland surprise for her potential sisterhood by spraying the hallways with the fire extinguisher. Rather than waking up to a foamy wonderland, the sisters were awakened by the blaring fire alarm. In the middle of the night. During finals week.

What else can a true friend do but record your meltdown and share it with the entire world?

Maybe You Shouldn't Buy That

Maybe You Shouldn't Buy That is a blog chronicling a collection of the most expensive and most worthless items in the world.

Sample:

"A Segway is kind of an unnecessary device. For moderately paced movement, you could probably save yourself a couple grand and walk. Or you could bathe in your excess by rolling around on the $12,000 Chanel Segway. Complete with a Chanel handbag and matching black quilted-leather mud flaps and handlebars, you can finally roll around with the combination of fashion and lethargy you’ve always craved."

You can sort entries by price/ridiculosity.  I recommend the $$$$$ category for maximal gawkery.

The iSnort Demo

The iSnort Demo is a spoof ap for iPhones by Peter 'Magic' Johnston. that allows you to pretend to cut lines of coke on your phone.  

According to Gizmodo, "This is funny because a) it's ultra-realistic and b) it is precisely one of the main uses of the iPhone in many clubs all around the world. And you gotta love their on-your-face sales pitch: 'Be the envy of in-crowd. Get ejected from nightclubs. Shock and amaze your so-called friends. Get oral sex from Z-list celebrities' "

Enjoy!

Look at this fucking hipster

Look at this fucking hipster is a picture-fuelled Tumblr blog devoted to making fun of hipsters.

Also, this blog doubles as a hipster fashion idea catalog, depending on your personal stance on dressing duchebaggery. In addition to making fun of hipsters individually, they also feature "look at this love connection" where they pair hipsters together. "Beans" also makes repeated appearances.

Enjoy!

Picture is Unrelated

Picture is unrelated is a website about pictures that don't make sense. It's exactly what you think: a string of pictures stripped of context, ran by a guy named "Pizzaburger". The catalog isn't very deep yet, but it's strangely addicting. Charming, really. GREAT FIND, ANDREA.
