Broccoli Dog
Broccoli Dog is the nickname given to an image of a dog sitting at a table with a plateful of broccoli, in which he takes an understandable disinterest. From here people created somewhat of a LOL Cat and put the phrase "Do Not Want" with the picture. Also, a handful of fans put their photoshop skills to work and added a twist to this picture. The origin of this photo is unknown and is still being researched. So if anyone knows anything about a dog that has a strong distaste for broccoli, let the people know.

Jell-O Prank
Every wondered how to welcome back a colleague? Well somewhere in Finland an office knew exactly how to welcome back their fellow colleague Tom. Well, no other way than to do the jelly mouse and keyboard prank. Tom's mouse and keyboard keys were stuffed into two blocks of jell-o and left with a not that reads "Welcome back Tom!". One tasteful prank!

You Row, I'll Game
As I was browsing Kotaku.com, I came across a funny article called "You Row, I'll Game". It shows a picture of a dad and a son in a row boat in the middle of a lake. Now, some of you may be thinking that this seems like a perfectly spent afternoon with a child but as you look closely in the picture you can tell that the dad is rowing and the kid is playing on a DS. To make these pictures more funny as you scroll past the pictures, read some of the comments that people leave. :)
Bright Eyes
Have you ever gazed into somebody's eyes while at a candle light dinner with a romantic violin playing in the background? Okay, me neither but if you really want to gaze into somebody's eyes check out these pictures I found on BoingBoing.net. The article is called Macro Photos of Eyes and caught my attention by displaying a huge and amazingly detailed eyeball. These series of photographs comes from the photographer Suren Manvelyan and is called Your Beautiful Eyes. So even if you have gazed into somebody's eyes, you never have like this.

The Most Interesting Man in the World
We all know that catch phrase, the most interesting man in the world. If not, you have been living in a box, or you have not seen any of the Dos Equis commercials. As I surfed through knowyourmeme.com, I came across an article about one of my favorite commercials. Dos Equis has created a great marketing campaign with the most interesting man in the world. With their humerus catch phrases, the most interesting man in the world is not only extremely interesting but super hero-like. With catch phrases like "when he slaps you in the face you have to resist saying thank you" and "sharks have a week dedicated to him", Dos Equis one liners are never short to impress. The point of these ads were to get people talking about their product and I believe they have accomplished just that.

"Between two Ferns"
Do you need a laugh today? This video that I found on Tubefilter.com is bound to make anyone laugh. From the show "Between two Ferns" comes an interview between Steve Carell and Zach Galifianakis. The interview takes place between two faux ferns and terns extremely awkward within seconds. Carell is no stranger to blurting absurdly inappropriate comments and therefore wastes no time during this interview with is fellow co-star in Despicable Me. Check out this video if you are in need of a good laugh. :)

Twisted Genius
As I looked through the website Wired, I found an article about Tim Burton that caught my eye. This article showed multiple concept artworks that Burton sketched. I particularily love looking at these doodles because I am in love with the works of Tim Burton. Everytime I want to be taken to another world that is outside of my imagination, I watch a Tim Burton movie. "Tim's sketchbooks are his diary," writes Gallo. "He takes people who strike him in some way and pens their memory into his sketchbook, accentuating the characteristics that most strike him." I hope that you enjoy looking through these sketches as much as I did. There is a description under each to give you more background about the sketch. If you really like these sketches you can purchase Tim Burton's book called, The Art of Tim Burton.
