Nathan Fielder, star of Comedy Central’s Nathan for You, recently encouraged his Twitter followers to “accidentally” tweet their parents about a drug deal and to then tell them to ignore the text.

Here’s a look at some of the results (kids, if you like being in your relationship, don’t try this at home)

**Warning! Here there be SPOILERS about the last episode of ‘Game of Thrones,’ which you really should have watched by now!**We’ve had some pretty mixed emotions after the “Red Wedding” episode of ‘Game of Thrones’ and knew this was the only thing that would make us feel better. Like, we didn’t really care about Robb Stark, but didn’t feel like seeing a pregnant lady get belly murdered. So ENJOY YOUR NEW BLAZERS, JERKS! Oh, you’ve got an army of killers? We’ve got an army (okay three or four) of artists who know PHOTOSHOP. Now you have to wear Justin Bieber clothes, Tywin Lannister and Walder Frey, so you can look like the douches you are. Sincerely, we feel a lot better.

A few days ago storm chaser Brandon Ivey recorded this jaw-dropping video from inside a violent tornado in Smith County, Kansas. Ivey recorded the video alongside film director Sean Casey as their armored storm chasing truck, Tornado Intercept Vehicle 2, was engulfed by winds of up to 175 MPH. The seven-ton TIV 2 was designed by Casey to capture up-close footage of tornadoes and is equipped with metal and composite armor plate, bullet resistant windows, an IMAX camera turret, and wind skirts and anchoring devices that prevent it from being blown away. The storm reportedly tore instrumentation from the roof of the truck and breached the hull in two locations.

I really hate people taking photos near the sculptures. When I was traveling around the Europe with my friends, I just couldn’t get why people think that they have to make a photo near every sculpture. Is it in our genes? Or is there some kind of magnet in those sculptures? Well ok, there might be some sculptures that I would like to have a photo standing near them… Check this awesome list of 20 strange sculptures around the world.
If some of you wonder “What the hell is Origami?”, lets cite our beloved Wikipedia: “Origami (origami) (from oru meaning “folding”, and kami meaning “paper”) is the ancient Japanese art of paper folding. The goal of this art is to create a representation of an object using geometric folds and crease patterns preferably without the use of gluing or cutting the paper,and using only one piece of paper” Maybe not all of the art works here were done using only one peace of paper, but nevertheless they all look really impressive. Have a good time scrolling down the list!

Google does a lot of very weird things. It has a top-secret lab working on dozens of projects we don’t know about. It builds fiber networks mostly because it has the money and is sick of dealing with ISPs. And now, apparently, it’s going to connect places with no Internet infrastructure by using blimps. Honestly, we question how important it is that the Third World get on the Internet as opposed to, say, sending humanitarian aid. But it can’t hurt, and entitled white kids on an “adventure” will be able to get a decent signal to post pics to Instagram with. These wireless networks would serve areas such as sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast Asia to dwellers outside of major cities where wired Internet connections aren’t available, said people familiar with the strategy. The networks also could be used to improve Internet speeds in urban centers, these people said. Google is also developing cheap hardware to use on these networks, bringing the joy of fart apps to people who live on less than the average American’s coffee budget. Sarcasm aside, it’ll be good to connect these remote areas: there are real benefits ranging from citizen journalism to better medical treatment. And it’s been shown in the past that networks like this can provide real benefit to those living there. On the other hand, you also have to wonder what deals Google will have to cut to get these things in the air. While Africa and Southeast Asia are hardly as bad as the news tends to portray them, there are oppressive regimes and other assorted unpleasant types who really do not want Westerners to, say, find out that they’re running their country into the ground. Google may mean well, but it’s likely sooner or later to find itself embroiled in more local politics than it cares to be involved in.
