Clueless Sports Commentator Has No Idea What’s Going On
Sports commentator and former soccer player Chris Kamara has a bit of a reputation for not really knowing what’s going on, which makes sense when you watch this video of him not having any idea what’s happening.

Baskin-Robbins Now Offering Ice Cream Nachos
You can call them by their proper name, “Waffle Chip Dippers,” all you want. Those, friends, are ice cream nachos. Baskin-Robbins is selling them at select locations for $2.99, which is significantly less than the cost of nachos that aren’t made out of ice cream, last we checked.
Barack Obama Gets Coveted Endorsement From Jeff Bridges as ‘The Dude’

World’s Largest Cheeseburger Is Actually Pretty Disgusting

Is a Twitter Feud Brewing Between Ann Romney and ‘Modern Family’?
Mitt Romney’s loving wife Ann Romney definitely has experience in the field of motherhood. At the GOP Convention, she even said that “It’s the moms of this nation – single, married, widowed – who really hold this country together.” Maybe it’s this insider’s knowledge into the modern family that makes her appreciate the TV show ‘Modern Family’ so much.
Military Starts Naked Salute Facebook Group for Prince Harry
Well, if what happens in Vegas isn’t going to stay in Vegas, as many people as possible should probably put naked pictures of themselves up on Facebook to make it okay. It’s maybe not how we would deal with the Naked Prince Harry Fiasco of 2012, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t happening right now.

Michelle Obama’s Health Kick Hits Home — Bo Is On a Diet
When the First Lady says she’s serious about healthy food, the First Lady means she is serious about healthy food. Even the First Dog, Bo, is not beyond reproach, and, after packing on a few pounds, is now on a diet. Yes, the dog is on a diet.
Oxford Online Adds Ridic New Words to Dictionary
Thank the merciful heavens! Now we can say “micropig” as much as we want without having to endure the crushing shame of using a word that isn’t a legitimate word.

Our Thursday night dinner conve
Quadruple Amputee Swims Every Intercontinental Strait, Makes History
Well, we were feeling pretty proud of ourselves for finally looking up that Couch to 5k thing, but it’s going to take a little more than that to impress Phillippe Croizon. The quadruple amputee has made history by swimming intercontinental straits linking Oceania, Asia, Europe, America and Africa.
