Get Creeped Out By Zombie Pumpkins
Happy Halloween all you Halloweeners! Aside from the whole boatloads of candy thing, there are two awesome things we're excited about today: it's socially acceptable to dress up like a disgustingly gruesome zombie in public, and we get to nerd out over jack-o-lanterns. Could it get much better?! Surprisingly, yes.
15 Dogs Ready to Take on Hurricane Sandy

Zombie Pirate Gives Insight into Hurricane Sandy
Covering Hurricane Sandy has proven to be quite a feat. It's difficult to keep up with all the information pouring into the newsrooms, but who gets to experience the brunt of it all? Reporters. Poor, poor reporters.
Brighten Your Day with 10 Dogs Celebrating Their Birthdays
Few things brighten our day more than puppies. They're troopers when it comes to adorably tortuous makeovers, after all. OK, so they might not be superfans of unfortunate haircuts or miniature shoes. But we've discovered something dogs really enjoy-- celebrating their birthdays. What's not to love about party hats and cupcakes made out of dog food and blowing out candles and noisemakers?! Our poin
Little Girl Gives Puppy an Adorable Makeover
We've said this before, and we'll say it again-- puppies and kids are a match made in adorable heaven, especially when they're playing together. How do they pull it off? We have no idea, nor are we questioning.
Meet Shishi-Maru, Instagram’s Latest Star Kitty
It's Monday, which means our general productivity is virtually non-existent. It happens every single week, but we have yet to discover a successful solution to our downright laziness. But don't despair!
Remember the study that claims scrolling through puppy and kitty photos on the internet boosts work performance by up to 44%? Well, we've discovered the ultimate cure for today's moseying around--
Learn the Meaning of Halloween From Kristen Stewart
Kristen Stewart is always around vampires these days. She's surrounded by the bloodsuckers in 'Twilight', and rumor has it she's back on with Robert Pattinson, AKA Edward Cullen. So since vampires are a Halloween staple, and October 31st is just around the corner, what better way to help us understand the creepy holiday than by enlisting K-Stew?
Find Out Who Has The World’s Largest Bottle of Whisky
Whisky is a man’s game. Kicking back with a glass is a testament to our manhood, but it doesn’t seem like the stuff gets enough credit. That is until recently. It sounds like the testosterone-laced drink is finally gaining well-deserved attention these days, and we have some Scottish drunkards to thank.
Galaxy’s Cutest Dog Wears ‘Star Wars’ Cone
Dressing up our furry friends means they're usually subject to embarrassment among other pups. However, we think it's the small price they pay for being so darn adorable. That being said, we've already made our Star-Wars-meets-puppies obsession pretty clear, what with the discovery of Ewok dogs and Princess Leia pugs. Could the fantasy flick and canine combo get any cuter?! Luckily for us, yes.

Brazilian Guy Shows Up at His Own Wake
Funerals are like those Lifetime movie marathons our women watch -- we hate them so much that a sturdy kick in the balls would be better than sitting through one. Unless of course said funeral is amped up with a couple of funeral strippers, in which case, awesome. Other than that, what else could possibly make such a depressing and sappy crap fest more bearable? How about not actually being dead?
Parents Embarrass Teen With Hilarious Facebook Pics
We love our parents; we really do. It's just that during those early years, they can seem like the most embarrassing people on the planet. It's tough enough growing up (kudos to you if you can read the word "puberty" without wincing) without lame-o parents humiliating you, but when it comes to two parents in Wisconsin, we have to admit they've surpassed "embarrassing" and jumpe
Check Out ‘Evil Baby Glare-Off’ Contestants and Champion
Is it just us, or are babies working to ruin their innocent and adorable reputations? Sticking forks in VCRs or dumping spaghetti sauce all over the dog used to be cute, but now it's just... who are we kidding -- it's still cute! No matter what they do , wee ones can't help making us kid-loving softies, even if said kid rocks a mighty stink-face.
The Funniest ‘Scary Maze Game’ Reaction Videos
Few things are most satisfying than pulling off a really, really good prank. We're talking about the scare-your-pants-off kind that leaves our unsuspecting little siblings and friends falling victim to tons of spazzing out and the occasional tear or two. Basically, it's the best kind of mean joke around, but it's all in good fun!
10 Babies in Food Costumes About to Be Eaten By Their Parents
A few weeks back, a tiny baby burrito kicked off our craving for kids dressed in food costumes. (Not for actual baby. We're not zombies or anything.) It’s such a simple concept, yet it yields such hilarious results. Talk about Halloween genius at its finest. Luckily, we can continue laughing and aww-ing over miniature tasty attire, thanks to the ‘Babies in Food Costumes’ Tumblr.
Watch ‘Honey Boo Boo’ Mess With Dr. Drew on His Own TV
America’s obsession with ‘Here Comes Honey Boo Boo’ is one of those weird things we just have to accept and (willingly) join in witnessing the ridiculous hilarity. Luckily for us, Alana and Mama June Thompson have been on a slew of news-related shows recently, and in true sassy fashion, the six-year-old has always brought crazy antics along with her.
10 Awesomely Geeky Jack-o’-Lanterns
We’re self-proclaimed Halloween geeks. But honestly, how can you not be? There are so many ways to celebrate the holiday that by the time October 31st rolls around, our entire lives are defined by creepy stuff and ridiculous garb. Our pets aren’t big fans of the festive takeover, but that’s never stopped us from dressing them up as a turkey dog!
