Roll with it

As if not creepy and haunting in their own right, black-and-white Teletubbies + Joy Division = stranger things indeed. I never really understood what was going on with them before, and I'm sure not any closer now.

"If you ask me anything I don't know, I'm not going to answer." -- Yogi Berra

With a flourish

Five guys who call themselves The Virts shuffle (and spin, and twirl, and flip) cards to the point of higher art form.

"Moonlight is sculpture." -- Nathaniel Hawthorne

Eagle doers

POV video captures an eagle's descent from the world's tallest building with breathtaking views of Dubai before he breaks into a dive and returns to his trainer.

And file this under "Insane" -- a fantastically detailed Boeing 777 scale model made from manila folders.

"What does it mean to pre-board? Do you get on before you get on?" -- George Carlin

Test pattern

For those aficionados of major-network TV, a faux fall TV lineup nearly as funny as the actual crappy shows it lampoons.

And in case you're ever on the show, where to find "Jeopardy" daily doubles.

"My folks came to [the] U.S. as immigrants, aliens, and became citizens. I was born in Boston, a citizen, went to Hollywood and became an alien." -- Leonard Nimoy

Ear opener

Watch this touching moment when a father of four experiences silence for the first time in more than ten years.

Also, play Google Feud and guess how Google autocompletes certain queries. Not predictable and not easy.

"While there is life, there is hope." -- Jules Verne

K9 Five-O

Transform your mutt into a police dog with this one simple trick that the cops don't want you to know. Surprising that PETA isn't all over it.

And seems there's a new "premiere marketplace for privilege" called WellDeserved, that even as comedy is somewhat nauseating. But I guess we deserve it.

"Irresponsibility is part of the pleasure of all art; it is the part the schools cannot recognize." -- James Joyce

Drop kick

The magic of video puts you right up front in the world's tallest and fastest "giga coaster", which is modeled after a hornet's flight and destined for a Charlotte, NC, amusement park. Viewing not recommended after eating.

And scroll slow, have fun, which might leave you wanting more when you're done.

"There is a point in every contest when sitting on the sidelines is not an option." -- Dean Smith

Worst case

Last I checked, advertising is supposed to stimulate a consumer's desire for whatever it is that you're selling. Who knows what the Halifax (Nova Scotia) Downtown Business Commission is thinking. But it's funny.

And see where "Chinstrap" and the "Lip Quilt" fall in the rankings of the best men's facial hair, from top to bottom.

"Ask five economists and you'll get five different answers -- six if one went to Harvard." -- Edgar Fiedler

Lone wolf

Uncomfortable man caught seeing "50 Shades Of Grey" seems more like he's walking out of a peep show.

And unrelated, the nihilism of Werner Herzog's thoughts, presented as a series of inspirational posters.

"Always read something that will make you look good if you die in the middle of it." - P. J. O'Rourke

Reverse psychology

Finally accepting the facts about YouTube viewers, Geico makes you an ad you can't refuse.

"Genius is eternal patience." -- Michelangelo

Soporific

Cat with a touch of sleep apnea snores a pillow into submission, likely keeping any bedmates wide awake.

And these hypnotic geometric GIFs probably wouldn't be of much help fighting that battle.

"Laugh and the world laughs with you, snore and you sleep alone." -- Anthony Burgess

Don't fear the retriever

Don't fear the (Golden) Retriever. An amusing Vine with enough cowbell, maybe(?).

"Age does not protect you from love. But love, to some extent, protects you from age." -- Jeanne Moreau

A little help from my friends

Nifty demonstration by "Physics Girl" of how to make a golf ball bounce 8X higher than its drop point and how this relates to supernovas, of all things.

"All the problems of the world could be settled easily if men were only willing to think. The trouble is that men very often resort to all sorts of devices in order not to think, because thinking is such hard work." -- Thomas J. Watson
