8 Surprising Reasons Why Being a Dad is Awesome
14 jun 2013 15:08

Father’s Day — it’s the one time of the year you can tell the old man you appreciate how much he tolerates you constantly hitting him up for advice, wisdom and money. It’s a day for dads to soak in their contribution to future generations, even if that contribution once smeared dog poop all over the living room wall. Here are the reasons you don’t realize it’s great to be a father:

9 Facts About ‘Tropic Thunder’ That Will Change How You Watch it
14 jun 2013 15:06

‘Tropic Thunder’ pulled off something few movies have — it was both a hilarious satire on the movie industry and a legitimate action flick. It’s hard to mix both and find success (many movies have tried) but the screenplay written by Justin Theroux and Etan Cohen did both. The film was a success, retaining the number one position at the box office for three straight weeks, and earned $180 million during its theater run. We’d pay to watch it again just to see Tom Cruise. Here are nine odd facts about ‘Tropic Thunder’ that will change the way you watch the movie.

14 jun 2013 15:00

We know it’s a little gross to imagine your dad thinking about boobs, but remember, if he didn’t like boobs you might not be alive. Sorry we just made you daydream about your mom’s rack. If it makes you feel better we daydream about it too. Before you showed up and ruined all dad’s fun, he was kind of a lady-killer, and the only thing that really changed was the ring on his finger. Dad is still a horny dude. When there’s a beautiful woman around men just can’t help but stare and dads are no exception. Check out these dads caught peeping a little too long.

11 Categories Tebow Will Lead the New England Patriots in Next Season
14 jun 2013 14:58

The New England Patriots raised eyebrows when they signed Tim Tebow after he was cast aside by the archrival New York Jets. With living legend Tom Brady entrenched at quarterback, it remains to be seen just how the former Heisman Trophy winner will fit into Emperor Belichick’s plans. While it may seem unlikely that Tebow will have a major role on the team, there are actually several categories he will lead the team. Take a look for yourself:

10 Scary Amusement Park Rides Described: All are Terrifying!
14 jun 2013 14:54

“Rides are safe,” they said. “Calm down and eat your cotton candy,” they said. Then my coaster slid backwards down a steep hill, mid-climb and it was all over. I wish I could go back in time to before my ride in the Hypersonic XLC at King’s Dominion in Virginia. Right before the ride malfunctioned. Not because anything happened, but because it ruined me, and now I’m scared of rides. Whether you love them or hate them, let’s all get a little panicky together with this list of 10 scary amusement park rides, as described by me, a person terrified by every single one of them.

This New International Trailer For 'The Wolverine' Is Pretty Okay

An international trailer for The Wolverine is out, and it includes plenty of new footage of Viper (Svetlana Khodchenkova) doing her creepy Viper thing with the acidy spit and the molting skin with the ripping off of her own face and there goes my appetite. As for the picture up top, we were inspired to alter this tweeted photo and add Grumpy Cat. Which one is Grumpy Cat and which one is Wolverine? Who knows, but they’ll both cut a fool.

Movie Trailer: Magic Magic, starring Michael Cera
14 jun 2013 14:44

Few people I write about inspire as much passionate hatred as Michael Cera, which sort of bums me out because I truly believe that there aren’t many comedy actors out there who can pull off the kinds of scenes he can. I assume most of the hate comes from him playing a lot of similar characters (a complaint no one makes about Jack Nicholson), but as if to throw the haters a bone, here’s Cera playing a weird, fruity, drunken ex-pat in Chile who becomes some kind of fatal attraction for Juno Temple in director Sebastián Silva’s Magic Magic, which played at Sundance and hits DVD August 6th. At least it’s a departure, right? And don’t tell me Michael Cera isn’t totally pulling off creepy here. Incidentally, “Hey, you wanna come pull off creepy?” is one of my favorite pick-up lines.

8 Narcissistic Lines From Kanye West's NY Times Interview
14 jun 2013 14:43

With Yeezus coming out in less than a week, we’re going to be hearing a lot about Kanye West, which is exactly how Kanye West likes it. Because he’s Kanye West. Right, Kanye West? Right, Kanye West. This morning, the New York Times published a fascinating, must-read interview between West and Jon Caramanica, who spoke to the rapper/icon/mogul/Cleveland Show guest star about, well, everything. The new album, the Taylor Swift incident, the Jay-Z, the Kardashian — it’s West’s first interview in years, and Caramanica covered as much as he could. Naturally, West was at his most brilliant, boastful self. Here are but a few of his most narcissist NUGGETS.

Conan O'Brien Plays 'Injustice: Gods Among Us' As The Flaming C
14 jun 2013 14:35

Conan O’Brien played and reviewed DC Comics fighting game Injustice: Gods Among Us with Aaron Bleyaert for another “Clueless Gamer” segment on Conan. In previous episodes, he’s reviewed Skyrim, Minecraft, Halo 4, Resident Evil, Just Dance 4, Hitman: Absolution, and he even perved out on Lara Croft in Tomb Raider. The video includes the usual slams on some of the cheesier DC Comics characters. “Even fish are embarrassed when they see Aquaman,” Conan says. Then he asks after a cut scene in their face-off between Batman and Wonder Woman, “Did we just have sex? I think we had sex. It was quick, but she seems happy.” The sarcasm continues heavily when Conan comments about how creepy Superman’s a zoo full of alien creatures is and Bleyaert defends Superman by saying Michael Jackson had a zoo. “You’re right,” Conan replies, “Nothing creepy there.” The biggest Injustice: Gods Among Us news comes late in the video, when we find out Conan can play as The Flaming C, the fishnet-stocking’d Superhero he co-created with Bruce Timm.r

Iron Man 3 Re-Imagined With Nicolas Cage Movie Poster
14 jun 2013 14:20

Last time we checked in with our favorite Brazilian Nicolas Cage photoshop enthusiast, Matheus Candido, he was re-imagining The Hobbit with a bit more Cage. Before that it was the Star Wars universe, and before that The Avengers, and before that the only Expendables 3 worth making. The man has a calling, you see. So with Iron Man 3 bearing down on us it only makes sense that Matheus delivers a new masterpiece to the world. Full image below. I for one find the Cage-portrayed Pepper Potts love interest much more believable. In case you didn't get to see it the first time around, here is our post on the Hobbit: http://loljam.com/post/7414/

Pop Culture Characters On Their Day Off (Art By Kiersten Essenpreis)
14 jun 2013 14:10

With so much lively up-beat, fresh pop art coming out these days, it's hard to keep up. Today, I am glad I found the work of Kiersten Essenpreis, who reminds us of the irony in art, especially in this latest collection. I also appreciate her for creating the best Halloween costume based on 1988's They Live. Now Kiersten Essenpreis is showing a series at Gallery 1988 East in which she illustrates what her favorite movie and TV characters are doing on their days off. Check out some of our favorites below to find out what actually happened to the cat in Alien and to see who's been carving all of those bear sculptures into tree stumps.

James Franco's This Is The End Mural Is Not Flattering To Jonah Hill
14 jun 2013 14:00

Ironic modern day renaissance man and professional dicknoser James Franco recently painted a mural in Williamsburg (because of course he did) depicting himself and all his co-stars in his new apocolyptic buddy comedy, “This Is The End” (opens today, possibly excellent). But Franco apparently didn’t run any of the likenesses by his co-stars, as Jonah Hill — who seems a bit temperamental — is a little bummed out about being depicted as a morphine addict from Picasso’s blue period, as he explained to Conan last night after telling stories of being owned in a dark theater and making the mistake of asking Ice Cube who the greatest rapper of all-time is. Mural stuff starts around the 3:30 mark.

This Adorably Fluffy Two-Legged Cat Is The Real-Life Hovercat
14 jun 2013 13:58

Sooo... it's Friday afternoon and all you are thinking about is the weekend while you are stuck at work. Wait, was I the only one thinking about that? Damn. How about pictures and video of an elderly two-legged cat who learned how to walk and run on two legs? Caffrey the Persian cat lost his left hind leg at age three, when he was run over by a car. For the next ten years, Caffrey tooled around England on three legs. Then he lost his front left paw to kitty cancer, which sounds adorable but is decidedly not so. The amputation of Caffrey’s left paw was controversial. Some vets thought leaving him with only the two legs on his right side to save his life would make it impossible for him to walk and would be more cruel than leaving the cancer be. Caffrey, being a cat, responded with a “screw physics” and learned how to run on his two right legs. Physics ain’t got nothin’ on cats.

Corona Light Explores The Intense World Of Animal On Animal Hunting

Enter Corona Light’s new “Ditch the Herd” spot that hits on all points. Not to give the whole thing away, but a deer hunting sheep is a conflicted sheep. Pretty sure the full backstory is an epic Donnie Brasco meets Babe sort of tale that deserves a prequel.

News Bloopers: A Compilation Of Animals Attacking Reporters
14 jun 2013 13:51

Hoo boy, do I love news bloopers where animals attack reporters on live television. I love them so much. Every time I see an animal in the shot, my brain immediately kicks into overdrive. “Freak out. Do it. Do it. DO IT,” I think to myself as I stare lasers at the screen in an attempt to will the animal into losing its mind that very moment. I can’t get enough. Maybe I just love the chaos. Maybe I secretly hate reporters. Who knows? The important thing here is that if a reporter is holding a cat and that cat doesn’t start screeching, clawing, or biting at some point during the segment, my entire day is ruined. That’s why this compilation is so great. It is almost eight uninterrupted minutes of animals ruining live television, with no filler or fakeouts. All your favorite hits are there: Snake Bites Guy, Cat Screeches At Lady, Ostrich Unties Dude’s Bow Tie, Goat Headbutts Woman In The Crotch, etc. My only complaint here is that this video isn’t three days long. I wouldn’t even get up to eat.

8 Classic Rock Songs That Shouldn't Be On Radio
14 jun 2013 13:34

I have learned three things while listening to the radio during my drive from New York to Bonnaroo: 1. The radio is terrible. 2. I can save HOW much money by switching my insurance to Geico?!? 3. The radio is really, really terrible. But seriously, the radio is REALLY terrible. My rental car doesn't have an iPod outlet, and I sadly forget to bring my CD binders that I haven't touched in five years along with me, so for the 13-hour drive, I'm left to rely on the Crazy Ira and the Douches of the FM world. It's maddening, especially because the same damn songs are played after time after time (including "Time After Time"). There's something reassuring, I suppose, in 99.5 The River in Albany, New York, playing "In Your Eyes" at the same time as 103.4 The Skunk in Salem, West Virgina, but actually, no, there's not. As someone who grew up listening to classic rock radio (i.e. songs recorded between the 1960s and 1980s), here are eight songs that should be taken out of the rotation...forever. *toilet flush*

Beautiful, realistic dog portraits made by scraping ink off of clay
14 jun 2013 13:11

Scratchboard is an artistic medium in which an etching tool such as an X-Acto knife is used to scrape through a layer of ink into a foundational layer of clay underneath. In the case of these images from Cristina Penescu, coatings of black ink have been punctiliously poked and scraped thousands of times each so that in the contrast between the ink that is left on the board and white clay beneath it, we see the stunning images of wolves and other dogs…

LOLCats From Yesteryears: Photographs by Harry Whittier Frees
14 jun 2013 11:52

LOLcats, for those uninitiated, is an Internet meme of funny cat pictures accompanied with an amusing caption, often idiosyncratic and grammatically incorrect, as a cat would say could it speak. LOLcat is a combination of two words – LOL which means “laughing out loud” and cat. While the term is believed to have originated in 2006, the concept of lolcats originated much earlier. These photographs were taken by American photographer Harry Whittier Frees (1879–1953), who dressed his cats, Rags and Fluff, as well as the pets of his friends and neighbors, and posed them in human situations with props, often with captions.

Literary Slip
14 jun 2013 11:36

London-based artist Jonathan Wolstenholme's love of literature has inspired him to create a number of whimsical watercolor paintings depicting books with their own set of arms and hands. Rather than simply lying in a bookshelf, waiting to be picked out from a row of similarly shaped novels and read, Wostenholme's surreal characters are given the ability to scoop up or even write their own books. The personified volumes of printed words can be seen engaging in the sorts of activities you'd imagine the scholarly type from classic fiction to be doing like writing with a glass of wine in one hand or smoking a pipe while playing a round of dominos with a fellow bookish intellectual. Wolstenholme even whimsically titles each of his paintings with a clever play on words. In this series, a "literary slip" is a humanized book actually slipping on an ill-placed banana peel.

Lightscapes is an experimental work by London-based designer Troy Hyde that takes satellite images of some of the most lively cities in the world and transforms them into flickering animated images. The series takes an extremely zoomed out look at these landscapes at night that are spectacularly lined and illuminated by lights. Much like someone on earth looking up at the night sky to admire the twinkling stars, this collection reverses the perspective of the viewer as though they are in the sky looking down at the sparkling dance of manmade lights on our planet. Each flicker seems to signify a sense of life and movement.

Cute Miniature Crocheted Animals by Su Ami

A family-run crocheting manufacture from Vietnam proves that size doesn’t matter! Their miniature crocheted animals are so small that they fit on a finger tip, and some of them hardly reach 1/4 of an inch. The idea for the business was inspired by the youngest (10-year-old) member of the family, who’s greatly fond of various movie characters and loves animals. Her nickname even ended up being the name of the company.
