Virtual Flaneurism

From Rich: Brooklyn overrun with opossums after city officials attempt (and fail) to thwart growing rat population by littering the burrough with...opossums.

Obligatory Simpsons reference:

QUIMBY

For decimating our pigeon population, and making Springfield a less oppressive place to while away our worthless lives, I present you with this scented candle.

SKINNER
Well, I was wrong. The lizards are a godsend.

LISA
But isn't that a bit short-sighted? What happens when we're overrun by lizards?

SKINNER
No problem. We simply unleash wave after wave of Chinese needle snakes. They'll wipe out the lizards.

LISA
But aren't the snakes even worse?

SKINNER
Yes, but we're prepared for that. We've lined up a fabulous type of gorilla that thrives on snake meat.

LISA
But then we're stuck with gorillas!

SKINNER
No, that's the beautiful part. When wintertime rolls around, the gorillas simply freeze to death.

I am embarrassed to admit that I uttered an audible aww when he stuck the bow on.

Dear Lord,

I love to watch owners emotionally scar their cats.

Never let it end.

Love.

OMG, UNCLE BOB, STOP STEALING OUR THUNDER PLZ.

Adorably confused puppy mimes walking while riding an escalator.

This video is a double-whammy: not only is it amusing (or not, you decide), but it takes place at the San Gennaro festival in Little Italy which I am mortified to be be missing. I totally took Littaly for granted when I lived in New York.

This may be the best OK GO music video yet, simply because it features synchronized dog dancing.

Yeah, gif binge. Time for bed.

Lol, but soooo fake.

This video goes beyond absurdity.

This video serves to remind me again that I want a fucking dog. Preferably a lab or a retriver.

Celebrities as kids photos are always fun to look at, though it's troubling that some jackass took the trouble to run these pictures through the hipster/douche grain filter in photoshop...or all these celebrities were hipster/douches with Polaroid cameras.

I can't begin to imagine what Freud would say about this.
