5 Apps That Would Make Better Movies Than ‘Angry Birds’
They are seriously making an 'Angry Birds' movie. What will it be about? Who would be in it (aside from obviously Nicki Minaj)? Will it just be Nicki Minaj doing everyone's voices?

Girl Puts Cat on Treadmill, Doesn’t End in Tragedy
You might want to watch a video of a cat on a treadmill for the moment when it goes flying off and hits a door hard enough to make a sound but not hard enough to injure the cat. This is not that video. This is a video of a cat that does a pretty good job of running on a treadmill...
