A stunning image of a young polar bear drifting to sleep on an iceberg, by British amateur photographer Nima Sarikhani, has won the Wildlife Photographer of the Year People's Choice Award.

Probably late to the party, but noticed Auston Matthews is starting to look a lot like Ron Jeremy in the latest SN commercial. Apparently I’m not the only one.

Still better than McDavid's transformation into Frank Gallagher from Shameless.

See how enjoyable crushing 100 children in a competitive game can be?

Surely some of you had the experience on the frozen lake or outdoor arena as a teenager where you and maybe 1 or 2 buddies took on every little kid who showed up? So like 15 on 3?

I recall it being a hell of a workout. And more fun if they had the goalie.

It reminds me of that old thread on here years ago about how many kindergarten kids could you take on at once in a fight.

Taco Bell hosting a keynote presentation, a la Apple, to announce new products has to be a sign of the impending apocalypse, no?

The look on the audience's faces at ~56 min says "I thought this was a 10 minute thing and I'd get a free taco. How the #### is this still going?"

They had The Bell Awards? Like literally the Dundees from The Office? Did they not get the joke?

That dude giving out the awards had the worst combination of gold shiny pants and a jacket two sizes too big that was literally eating him. Just astounding. The entire event felt like an elaborate prank.

I didn't think it was possible to both take yourself waaaay too seriously and not nearly seriously enough at the same time.

It's the opposite of keeping it real via self deprecating irreverence.

It's bad on multiple axis.
