If you were wondering what it takes to beat 'Gangnam Style' for the best viral video of 2012, it's pretty obvious the answer is lots of booze.
'Bohemian Rhapsody -- Under Arrest' managed to come out on top in this year's contest, ahead of such internet faves as 'Call Me Maybe' and 'Overly Attached Girlfriend,' for the title of best viral video of 2012. (He beat 'Gangnam Style' by 27%.) Maybe that's because Robert Wilkinson, the man behind the video, has an awesome singing voice.
Tommy Lee Jones was not amused by Will Ferrell's hijinks at last night's Golden Globes. And he was the only one. On the one hand, look at him -- he's ancient. Let him laugh or not laugh whenever he wants or doesn't want to. On the other hand, BWAHAHA he looks just like Grumpy Cat.
Holy cow, it's a dog that can drive! Sort of. Granted, we've seen dogs driving actual cars before, but this one is an enormous dog in a tiny Power Wheels. Plus he has no idea how to steer. The technical skill may not be as impressive as those w
Wow. This lady is going to have to attribute this to sheer panic, because this is just about the most unhip 'Wheel of Fortune' blunder ever. It's one thing to make a mistake. It's an entirely different thing to think 'I Have the Wine' is a song by Johnny Cash

It's not even the slightest bit of a secret that we love a good practical joke. We even kind of like the bad ones. Basically, as long as nobody winds up in a hospital, we're on board. So it should come as no surprise that we are BIG fans of the TruTV show 'Impractical Joke
If you're feeling a little trapped in your cubicle today, this NSFW video is *just* like being on a cruise ship, minus the weird drink bracelets and inevitable stomach viruses. Oh, plus lots and lots of cursing.
Jimmy Kimmel doesn't need help making his show funny. But at least when he gets a little outside assistance, it's from Will Ferrell and Ryan Gosling. That's pretty much the best way to do that. Will Ferrell for the laughs, and Ryan Gosling for making women
If only something this entertaining happened at every primary school band concert. Usually it's just kids blowing half-heartedly into recorders while the audience longs for the sweet release of death. But not this time. This time there is a xylophone bashing maniac onstage, and it is the most glorious thing we've ever seen.
Chicago Tribune photographer Amanda Kaschube snapped this picture of Bulls point guard Derrick Rose peeking from behind a pillar after a game in Miami last week. Chicago Side Sports looked at it and saw real potential for yuk yuks, so they made a couple funny pictures out of it in Photoshop. Then they opened it up to their readership, and things really got crazy. Check it out the Peekaboo Derrick Rose meme below.
This is Charles the lion dog. He does look pretty lion-y. It must be even more astounding in person, because one Norfolk, Virginia, resident saw him on the street and called the police, saying there was a lion on the loose and it was potentially looking for food.
Forget 'Les Mis,' this is the people's song. Al Roker's admission that he unleashed a brown torrent of filth into his Jockeys at the White House has been autotuned and turned into a song. "Do you hear the people sing? Singing a song of nauseous men? It is the music of a people who will not eat Indian buffet agaaaaain!!!" *Much*
Considering her horribly awkward introduction to Twitter, we feel like this video is a fairly accurate guess at what would happen if Oprah tried to dominate YouTube.
