Me? I’m pretty much a purist when it comes to Oreos, with the exception of thin Oreos, which make me feel like I’m being “smart”, and Halloween Oreos, which I swear taste better than any of the other colors. If you’re not a purist, though, and totally into all of the different and sometimes wacky...

The small village of Oymyakon in Siberia is generally acknowledged to be the coldest permanently inhabited settlement in the world. Recently, temperatures dropped to a chilly -62° C (-80° F), which kind of makes my complaints about the 0° stint we had here not long ago seem kinda…whiny. It’s cold enough that a new electronic...

One of life’s saddest truths (or maybe just best-kept secrets) is that no one really feels like an adult. Or maybe it’s just that we spend our adolescence wishing we could be in charge of our own lives, and then we get here and realize it’s a damn lot of work? I don’t know. But...

Fallon has had more than a few hashtag games that revolved around viewers outing the people in their lives – kids, friends, siblings, neighbors, even dentists – for being super weird. There are so many good ones, in fact, that we decided to round them all up in one list (or maybe two). Enjoy! #15....

In 1993, the FBI raided the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, TX where they believed religious leader David Koresh was leading a cult and abusing children in the process. Over 70 people died, an unavoidable tragedy that resulted from the cult members choosing to take an armed stand instead of surrendering to authorities. Or at...

We all have a dark side, but we’re not all tempted to join the ‘Dark Side’, and that’s what’s really important, right? While you’re deciding, here are 17 tweets that will satiate your needs…for now. #17. This made me lol. #16. #deepthoughts #15. Practice makes perfect. And weapons help. #14. I’m fairly sure this is...

It turns out that – breaking news – women are pretty darn funny. We’ve proven it on television, in standup, movies, and even (gasp!) on Twitter! Here are 13 of the funniest tweets from women last year…in my humble(ish) opinion. #13. Good for the turkey? #12. You and me both. #11. Or spinach dip. Or...

You never knew that four identical babies hugging was exactly what you needed in your life, but after you watch this video, you’re gonna be sure that it is. I mean, quadruplets are probably a ton of work if they’re yours, but these aren’t ours, so sit back and bask for a full 35 seconds....

In 1991, Nirvana defined a decade and gave a voice to the disaffected, flannel-wearing Gen Xers of the world with “Smells Like Teen Spirit.” But it turns out that when you sing it in a major key, you get something a lot less moody and full of rage, and more like something Rob Thomas would...

Randomness is life, or so they say. Maybe? Do they say that? I don’t know, but random or not, these 10 posts are just the thing to kick start your giggle-gene, and maybe even some productivity! As long as by “productive” you mean “hanging out on Tumblr.” Natch. #10. Best of the bestie pics. #9....

A dog is a man’s best friend. If you’ve had (or have) a dog, you’ll recognize the truth in that statement – whether they’re cuddling you after a rough spell or simply making you laugh, dogs are heroes every single day. But these 18 dogs went above and beyond the call of duty – though...

Human beings are super weird, y’all. We look weird, our bodies require an insane amount of upkeep, we’re not very nice to each other and yet we can’t seem to live without contact. Clothes are pretty strange, and so is the idea that we “own” pets and voluntarily pick up their poop. Right? Those are...

America’s oldest, and according to some, greatest, mystery is what happened to the colonists who first tried to settle Roanoke Island. The settlers arrived later in the year than planned – too late to get a good harvest going for the winter, and too late to continue to Jamestown – and were basically abandoned by...

If there’s one sentiment that seems to abound these days, it’s that 2017 was a pretty rough year. I know I’m not too sad to see the dawn of 2018 – especially since it brings us one year closer to when these 15 kids will come of age and save us all from ourselves. #15....

It kind of depends on your perspective and also your sense of humor, so, yeah. You decide. #12. Hugh Jackman is all of us. #11. Not that I can think of… #10. It’s a sad state of affairs. #9. Millennial life. #8. Wait… #7. Relevant. #6. I see too. #5. Clapbacks are the new PR...
