Finals have rolled around again, which means our cravings for scruffy dogs’ luv are at an all-time high. Unfortunately, we can’t literally give you dogs to cuddle, but we hope this installation of DogDH will tide you over until you track one down yourself. Keep the pics coming to blog@browndailyherald.com, and keep killing it in your end-of-semester shenanigans. We love you and you’re magnificent and you’re all doing great. (That’s what we imagine dogs would say if they could talk.)
John’s dog, Lach.
John Qua ’13: Both Lach and JQ “have long flowing blond locks, can devour inordinate amounts of ice cream, and prefer to be laying in people’s laps.”
Mary-Evelyn’s dog, Puppy.
The story of Puppy’s arrival in Mary-Evelyn Farrior ’14′s family is the best: “He showed up on our doorstep two years ago and has just stuck around ever since. He is the love of my life. This Halloween costume always kills me. He was also ironically stung by a bumblebee and had a severe allergic reaction on that very day. Although we lack great physical similarities, Puppy and I share an affinity for sleeping and snuggling that makes us rather alike in character.” [Read more →]
Sofia Coppola, the prodigal daughter behind Lost in Translation and The Virgin Suicide, has a new movie on the way. The Bling Ring is the sort-of true story of a group of teenagers that robbed homes of celebrities. Above is the just-released teaser, complete with shots of betch-ed out Emma Watson applying lipgloss and fast cuts of strip clubs. Exciting! Provocative!
Eninem and Dustin Hoffman: just two of the several people enjoying each other’s company on the tumblr Awesome People Hanging Out Together. But who’s the real Slim Shady?!
At BlogDailyHerald, we have a tendency to post pictures of adorable animals. The Interwebz loves a good fuzzy chick, a fluffy bunny, or a mewling cat. So today, we decided to post more photos of awww-inspiring animals:
Do you ever wonder how these things happen? How someone just completely misses the mark on something that seems so simple?
Yes, we do too. The incredibly entertaining site hadonejob.com compiles photos of (relatively) harmless, everyday mistakes that seem too ridiculous to even exist. Seriously though, guys — when you have one job, try not to mess it up as badly these people did.
“Craze.” “Trend.” “The new Harlem Shake.” These are terms that have been used to describe the practice depicted above. Some see “gallon smashing” as immature and disturbing. Others are a little more amused. We’ll let you judge for yourself.
For those of you who don’t know, this is the most famous, most valuable baseball card in history. It’s a T206 Honus Wagner card that’s over 100 years old. Grantland just threw up a great short that exposes what it takes for someone to pay $3 million for a copy of it (and sue over it!). It’s like the Mona Lisa, only far less culturally significant. Definitely worth watching if you like absurdist drama, baseball, or Wayne Gretzky.
Besides the fact that these savannah-dwelling animals are adorably plump, there’s really nothing else to take away from this video. Just wait until you hit the one-minute mark.
We saw her at Inauguration. We saw her at the Oscars. Now we can see her on Jimmy Fallon.
Our First Lady, Michelle Obama, has produced a series of videos with the hilarious comedian for her “Let’s Move” campaign to combat childhood obesity. We first have a workout sequence at the White House:
Then, if you haven’t seen it, “The Evolution of Mom Dancing”:
Damn, Michelle. These videos (and your fabulous arms) are enough to make us actually think about going to the gym for once.
