I'm Ticked Off

Everyone older than thirty remembers when America was the best the world had to offer. Sadly, that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore. But many people, young and old, aren’t giving up just yet. Verne McGrew may have given all he had fighting in World War II, but he isn’t done caring for his country. He spoke at a small town hall meeting with Bernie Sanders and expressed his feelings about the current situation.

Fishing Pole Shot (feat. The Harlem Globetrotters) Extended Edition - Dude Perfect

Dude Perfect have been growing in popularity for almost two years now. They have really made a name for themselves in the basketball world, so much so that The Harlem Globetrotters teamed up with them for a round of crazy trick shot baskets. Together, they make a crazy shot with a ball on a huge fishing pole in a hoop floating on the lake. You gotta see it to believe it.

SHOPPERS STEP OVER DYING MAN IN TARGET - BLACK FRIDAY

Black Friday Shoppers were reportedly unfazed after a man doing some late-night bargain hunting at a Target in South Charleston, WV, collapsed in the store. Eyewitnesses told WSAZ that Southridge Shopping Center patrons walked around and, in at least one instance, walked over 61-year-old Walter Vance’s body as he lay motionless on the floor. The store’s employees, apparently prohibited by policy from physically intervening, called 911. An ER nurse and an off-duty paramedic eventually came across the scene and attempted to administer CPR. Sadly, Vance was pronounced dead shortly after arriving at a nearby hospital. “Where is the good Samaritan side of people?” asked Sue Compton, a friend and co-worker of Vance. “How could you not notice someone was in trouble? I just don’t understand if people didn’t help what their reason was, other than greed because of a sale.” In California, the woman responsible for pepper spraying shoppers at a San Fernando Valley Walmart so she could get her hands on an Xbox 360 turned herself in, but was let go after she refused to talk to police about the incident in question. At least 20 people were injured in the incident. An investigation is ongoing. Meanwhile, retailers may have set a new one-day sales record, raking in an estimated $11.4 billion — a 6.6% increase over last year. Online sales also did extremely well, yielding a 39.3% increase on Thanksgiving Day and a 24.3% increase on Black Friday. One of the more interesting figures noted by analysts is the increase in things consumers bought for themselves: Self-purchases were up 11% over last year.

HOW THEY FELT

How They Felt, a Mumblecore short filmed by Team Funwolf for the 48 Hour Film Festival in the movement’s birthplace of Boston, features one faily unique quirk that separates it from similar shorts in the genre: One of its two main characters is a muppet. It went on to win Best Actress, Best Sex Scene, and was runner-up in the Best Picture category. That’s right: You are now living in a world in which a Mumblecore short starring a muppet won Best Sex Scene at a legitimate film festival. Sleep tight.

Beethoven for Elephants - Thailand

Pianist Paul Barton celebrates his 50th birthday in style: Playing Beethoven for old, injured, blind, and handicapped elephants at a nature preserve in the mountains of Kanchanaburi, Thailand. “It was a 50th birthday present to myself,” Barton is quoted as saying. “My wife and I have been working with blind elephants for many years, and I thought it might be something they would enjoy to listen to.” Sure, he had to drag the piano all the way up there, but it was an experience they will never forget.

Jimberly's Birthday III: At World's End

Travis writes: “For the third year in a row, I sent in this photo of my good friend Jimberly to the local NBC affiliate in my city, KNDU. And, just between you and me, Jimberly is a shopped masterpiece of my friends’ various facial features stitched together. You may remember him from this same day last year.” Happy 10th birthday, Jimberly! And congrats on another year of sneaking past the powers-that-be at KNDU, who clearly can’t tell by the pixels despite having seen quite a few shops in their time.

Who hasn’t been alone on a summer afternoon with a baseball, bat, and glove, but no one to play with? Well, Japanese astronaut Satoshi Furukawa doesn’t have that problem.

Exploding manholes caught on CCTV

A couple walking down Brook Street in Peterborough thanked their lucky saunter after missing an exploding manhole by a few short steps. A CCTV camera mounted on a nearby nightclub caught the blast, just as it did the first time around a mere three weeks earlier. “They are fixing it now but why wasn’t it done before?,” asked 25-year-old Daniel Madge, who was strolling through Peterborough city center with 22-year-old Stacey Peters. “If we had been a little further ahead it could have taken our legs off.” A spokesman for UK Power Networks said it was investigating the exact cause of the explosion. He added that a redundant electricity cable was found and “made safe.” As for Madge and Peters, they may want to steer clear of tanning beds for the foreseeable future.

THE KARATE KID1983 ENTIRE REHEARSAL MOVIE PT 1.mov

MeFite rudhraigh explains: “When they were making The Karate Kid, they decided to shoot each scene’s rehearsal with budget cameras so the actors could watch themselves back afterwards.” The result? A unintentionally hilarious alternate version of the classic movie that looks like it was Sweded by a bunch of Middle School kids with nothing better to do on a summer afternoon.
