The Best Memes, GIFs and Tweets From the Presidential Debate
As soon as we heard that Tumblr was going to be providing coverage of the debate via impromptu GIFs, we knew this election would at least be entertaining. Thanks should go especially to Mitt Romney's comment about Big Bird, which prompted tens of thousands of tweets. Here are the best of the internet reactions to last night's debate.
Dancing Pumpkin Man Is the Official Mascot of Halloween
It's no secret that we love Halloween. Dare we say this is one of the greatest Halloween videos ever?
See Your Favorite Male Celebs Morphed Into Surprisingly Attractive Women
Photo blog Worth 1,000 had a contest for participants to turn male celebrities into women. The results are amazing, although usually not particularly attractive.
‘Liam Neeson: The Musical’ Brings You ‘Neeson Season’
With Liam Neeson's career ever more closely mirroring Nicolas Cage's, a musical like this (from the folks who brought you Ah-nuld singing in the 'Total Recall' musical) doesn't seem entirely implausible.
Happy Birthday, ‘Peanuts’! Celebrate With Our Favorite GIFs
It was on this day 62 years ago that the first 'Peanuts' comic strip was published. Instead of humiliating Charlie Brown for his birthday, we thought we'd share some funny/cute/sadorable animated GIFs. Warning: like 'Peanuts,' they can be a little dark, because snow can be awfully depressing.
See a Scottish Village Overtaken by Foam
Bubbles, bubbles everywhere and GAH BUBBLES EVERYWHERE!!!!! If, by some chance, a resident of Footdee, in Aberdeen, Scotland had been quoting Willy Wonka and looked out his window, this is probably what he would've said. The entire town has been covered in foam blown ashore by strong winds from the North Sea...
Crazy Squirrel Goes on Kitchen Rampage
We're glad this guy's instinct when he found a squirrel in his kitchen was to grab a camera and record it, rather than grab a broom and start screaming. The squirrel seems pretty panicked (what squirrel doesn't?), but maybe it was just gathering up speed for what might be the greatest escape in the history of animals trapped in kitchens...
Chameleon Washing Hands In Sink Is Strangely Cute
We're pretty sure this chameleon is actually just trying to climb the water coming out of the sink because it's an idiot rather than wash its hands, but it's more fun to pretend that's what it's doing.
Terrible Reporter Makes Baby Cry
"Way to go, Dan. Way to make a baby boy cry on live television." Yeah, good job Dan. We especially like how once the baby starts to cry his impulse is to run awaaaaaayy, and then later to cheer the crying kid up with a bit of song and dance.
