It's Valentine's Day, and we all know what that means. #CandyHeartsRejects is trending on Twitter, again. At this point it's basically a Valentine's tradition, like buying chocolates or getting into a blackout fight.
Remember when Valentine's Day was awesome? You spent all day gluing construction paper to a shoe box, for the sole purpose of having people stuff it with cheap candy and cards from the pharmacy. Now it's just Someecards on Facebook and the orange creams are all that's left in the Whitman's sampler in the office kitchen.
Here are some of those cards you maybe used to get in your shoebox, if the teacher was too depressed to make you make your own Valentines. Happy Valentine's Day.
Congratulations are in order for Ellen DeGeneres after last night's Grammys. She didn't win an award, but she did do something possibly better -- say what we were all thinking about Katy Perry's boobs. With her face. On camera. Take a look.
The news of Pope Benedict's resignation has got us feeling like it's 1415 all over again. HEY-O! Seriously, this is the first time a Pope has stepped down it nearly 600 years, so it's pretty big news

It's only halfway through it's third season, but we can safely say that 'Workaholics' is one of the more easily quotable shows on television right now. How could it not be -- Anders, Adam and Blake chuck out little nuggets of hilarity so often the actual challenge is picking which ones to keep with us. Fortunately, we've taken that heavy burden off your shoulders and taken it upon ourselves. Here are ten great quotes from 'Workaholics' for your personal enjoyment. Let's get weeeeird.
The folks at Cinema Sins can fit everything that's wrong with 'Looper' into a video that's under three minutes, which is really saying something. When they did this for 'Prometheus,' they needed four.
Bless this brave, Australian man -- he has done a service for us all. Here is a video where he says 100 of the worst pickup lines imaginable to women, with varying degrees of rejection resulting.
Because we can't all be in the Christmas spirit all the time, here is a gigantic supercut of all the "bah humbugs" from movies and TV shows. It's perfect those who hate eggnog and glad tidings, and those think that 'A Christmas Carol' is a classic and what a wonderful way to catch as many version of it as possible at once.
It's that time again. Thanksgiving -- you eat until you're sick, post endless "artsy" photos of your sweet potato gratin on Facebook and drink as much as you can so you can deal with your Uncle Rick. Before descending into pure turkey madness, purvey these memes, and perhaps the memory of them will get you through the annual lecture on what "those politicians up on Capitol Hill" are really "up to."
You may remember talk about a certain feline running for office a while back, and go figure - about 6,000 people thought he was right for the job!
Is it a real video or a fake? If it's real, some employees have some 'splainin' to do!
