Remember when they made a TV show of The Flash? They're trying again, thanks to the success of Arrow. So we're celebrating with a few GIFs. The new series will, oddly, be tied to Arrow; we'll meet Barry Allen sometime next season and he'll be getting his spinoff late in 2014. It's been noted that TV makes sense for DC to bring characters to the screen, not least because it's cheaper to make a failed pilot than it is to make something like Green Lantern, which barely made more than its budget. Also, Arrow was one of the few freshman shows to actually survive the 2012 season and one of the few hits the CW has, so essentially, the CW would approve Ambush Bug at this point. It also raises a few questions since apparently there are hints Warner Brothers plans to bring Ollie and the Flash to film in the future. So does that mean Man of Steel happened in the Arrow universe? Does this mean all the in-jokes the show has been dropping, and there are a hell of a lot of them just in the first season, will actually have more relevance? These are questions only Warner Bros. can answer, of course, and it's possible even they might not know. But hey, more Flash! Let's celebrate with GIFs!

Call us old-fashion but you really can’t beat a few hours playing with LEGO can you? The possibilities are pretty much endless, but in an age where apps have replaced boardgames and Barbie isn’t quite the accurate portrayal of a girl as she once use to be, it can be a confusing time for parents who want to buy toys for their kids. What we do know, is there are certainly more than few gifts floating around that you really wouldn’t want to give your kids. That is unless you want to terrify them for life and ensure their teenage years are riddled with confusion. In which case, head down to your local department store and see if they have any of the following in stock….

Veebot is a start-up in California. They’ve built a robot that can insert IVs and partially automate blood draws. THANKS, WE NEEDED THAT. The patient slides his or her arm into an inflatable cuff, which acts as a tourniquet. An infrared light illuminates the inner elbow for a camera that searches for a suitable vein using software that compares the camera’s view against a model of an arm’s veins. Next, ultrasound confirms that the chosen vein has sufficient blood flow for a successful blood draw. Finally, the robotic arm aligns itself with the chosen vein and inserts the needle. The whole process takes about a minute. [Medgadget] The phlebotomist robot finds the best vein 83% of the time, which is about the same frequency with which human phlebotamists find the best vein. On the other hand, human phlebotamists probably won’t jab the everloving sh-t out of your elbow if they malfunction (we would hope). Richard Harris of Veebot says they want to raise the best-vein accuracy to 90% before starting clinical trials. He says a billion blood draws are performed in the U.S. each year (Half of those were performed on me last time I was in the hospital). He also says 250 million IVs are inserted each year in America. If improved, a machine like this could reduce errors and speed up the process. Or it could go all Judgement Day and END US ALL. Decisions decisions. Here’s a video of this nightmare beast at work, narrated by someone who seems to assume we’re all kindergarteners.

I don't know if it's just humans who can't get their head out of the gutter, or are these fruits really skilled in the art of seduction?! Check out these pervy fruits, just sitting there, being sexy.

Man boobs, otherwise known as 'Moobs' are a result of letting oneself go, physically. Although some of these once sexy celebs still seem to be not out of shape completely, their moobs give that flab away. So feast your eyes, and be grossed out by our top famous man boob owners.

Photographer Dave Engledow is on a quest to prove what a "great" father he is by creating a series of these super adorable parenting pictures. Check them out!

Ever wandered what Beyonce, Obama or Nicole Kidman would look like as midgets? Well here's your chance to find out. The internet has a new things, morphing celeb images into little celeb images. Yes it's weird and freaky, but that's what's hot on the web.

They're crazy, evil, funny, silly, and super cute! Here's some husky fun for y'all.

In case you missed the Comic-Con last weekend here's a list of kinds of people you are most likely to see at nerdy events, brought to you by Dorkly.

RED 2 premiered this week, and while I don't share Burnsy's level of enthusiasm, I do love me some Helen Mirren. And seeing as how on summer Fridays I only require the slightest shred of a reason to put a GIF collection together here we are paying animated tribute to my favorite Dame. Or "Liz Lemon's Lady Wizard" as she's known in my circles. Pro tip someone told me about that I haven't verified myself: You'll find lots more 20th century Helen Mirren GIFs by doing a something search, no filter. But before then, let's take a moment to remember that she awesomely pretend shoots people and occasionally makes out with Paul Rudd.

It’s a killer combination: Florence Welch, knocking down shots, with a bar band, at a party, singing Daft Punk’s “Get Lucky,” whipping her hair, while wearing a sun dress. According to the British band Sourberry, via HyperVocal, Welch, sans Machine, was in attendance for their annual summer party, and she “hopped up on stage during our sound check and rocked out a couple of numbers with us while we warmed up.” Not only did she impressively slur her way through “Get Lucky,” she also managed to belt out the Gossip’s “Standing in the Way of Control.” Welch is seriously giving Jenny Lewis a run for her Best Red-Headed Songstress title.

Pacific Rim may have finished third at the box office this weekend, but that doesn't mean we can't continue to enjoy the silly names of the giant robots (Jaegers) in the film. With names like Gipsy Danger, Striker Eureka, and Crimson Typhoon, these robots would be right at home in Key & Peele's "East/West College Bowl" sketch.

To promote Pacific Rim, the Warner Brothers website has a Jaeger designer app which lets you create your own giant robot design, name it, and stick it in a poster. But could fans come up with names as unique as the film’s robots Gipsy Danger, Striker Eureka, and Crimson Typhoon? Oh yes. Kris Straub (via Angelophile) came up with the picture above, the perfect use of a promotion like this. Straub’s other designs were just as magnificent:

Bill Hader dropped by Conan last night ostensibly to promote The To-Do List and the many other projects he has his fingers in (like writing full-time for freaking South Park), but instead spent almost his entire visit talking about a Tumblr dedicated to how poor his clothing choices are and doing an impression of his wife that is essentially him doing an impression of his wife doing an impression of Girl You Wish You Hadn’t Started a Conversation With At a Party. I’m sure Mrs. Hader was none too pleased, but oh man it is ludicrous and great. I take way too much pleasure in other people haphazardly making fun of their significant others in what is sure to be an act of self-destruction. Oh yeah, Bill also always wears the same shirt to everything apparently, as evidenced by the image above. No regard for wardrobe or wife retaliation? Bill Hader gets all the respect.
