This is a video of the original 1985 ThunderCats intro faithfully recreated in stunning CGI by filmmaker Mike Booth while teaching himself 3D animation so he could “do some simple effects” in his films but “got carried away.” So is this what happens when talented people get carried away? Because the last time I got carried away doing anything I ended up with an apartment covered in empty Monster Energy drinks and losing lotto scratchers.

Keep going for this version, as well as the original for reference.

This is a video of some Ukrainian prankster walking around Zaporizhzhia and pretending like his giant stack of boxes is going to fall on people. Everyone seems so good natured about it, I feel like if I’d done this around my neighborhood I would have gotten beaten up. People don’t like being pranked around here. Plus, okay, the boxes probably would have actually fallen, and been filled with hornets.

Seen here looking like a typical weekday lunch, some 30+ year old Hamm’s beer and Godzilla Heads gum was found stashed behind some shelving at the Walla Walla Public Library in Washington while the facility was undergoing some renovations during its closure due to the coronavirus. Some more info while I try to remember where drunk me hid my cookie stash:

During the demolition three weeks ago, five full cans of Hamm’s beer and an opened pack of Godzilla Heads gum was found in a disintegrated paper bag, Wells said.
“Someone had apparently taken a cue from ‘Treasure Island’ and stashed their booty behind the shelving,” city officials wrote on Facebook.
With some packaging clues, such as a missing warning label required on beer after the late 80’s, library staff calculated that the hidden stash had to have been there for at least 30 years.
“It looked like somebody had just stashed it there and maybe thought they could get it later … but there was no way to get it out,” Wells said.
“There were probably six beers that they bought and there was only five that we found so they might not have been thinking straight when they did it.”

‘There were probably six beers that they bought and there was only five that we found so they might have not been thinking straight when they did it.’ Wait — they might not have been thinking straight because they drank one beer? Do you suspect it was a five year old? No, I suspect what happened here *lights Sherlock Holmes pipe, inhales, has coughing fit, taps burnt banana peels into ashtray* is a classic case of somebody getting sucked into and trapped inside a book. “Like Jumanji.” I’ve beat The Oregon Trail before.

Thanks to my friend Jackie, who’s a librarian herself and informed me finding secret stashes around the library is a lot more common than you’d think. OMG, treasure hunt!

This is some security cam footage from an apartment building in Harbin, China, of elderly man Gao Fengua walking his golden retriever (who’s wearing sneakers) when a cat falling from the sky lands on his head, knocking him out cold. Well, I suppose he should at least be thankful it wasn’t raining cats AND dogs. Details at eleven:

According to reports, the cat belonged to the elderly’s man neighbour and fell from the apartment balcony. Now, Gao is trying to reach a compensation agreement with his neighbour.
According to The Sun, the reason behind seeking the compensation is that Fenghua had to be admitted in the hospital for 23 days. He was discharged recently but will have to wear a neck brace. He still has to undergo regular physiotherapy treatment.

Damn, 23 days in the hospital? That sounds serious. Or like he’s trying to pull a scam. And I’m not just saying that because that’s exactly what I would do, but *collects neighbor’s cat hair from brush, glues to neck, lays on porch* OW OW SHIT MY NECK IT’S BROKEN I HAVE DIED. Just play along.

Keep going for the video, which includes the dog trying to confront the cat for killings its owner.

This is the listing for a $350,000 2-bed, 2-bath, 9-cell home in Fayette, Missouri that comes complete with an attached jail (right off the kitchen!) since it was originally the county sheriff’s home and jail. Plus it was built in 1875, so you know it’s haunted. Some more details while I suggest law enforcement pay a weekly visit to the cells to bust whatever serial killer buys this house:

1875 Howard County Sheriff’s House and Jail. Extremely unique opportunity!! Extensive renovation in 2005 (supposedly $1.5 million) captures modern high end finishes with traditional architecture and character. This home is 2465 sq ft with three levels of living area, 2 bedroom. 1.5 bath, high end finish throughout, appears to have been totally rewired, replumbed and new HVAC zoned system installed. AND THE BEST PART, connected to the home is a 2500 sq ft legitimate jail with 9 cells, booking room and 1/2 bath. The cell door lock throws appear to be operational. Full basement under the home with lighting throughout. Possibilities are amazing with this property.

I suppose you could turn it into some sort of jail themed bed and breakfast. Or you could, I don’t know, buy a house that doesn’t have a jail attached to it like a normal person who doesn’t buy plastic sheeting in bulk like Dexter.

Keep going for a ton more shots.

In other, much more poor decision making related bear news, this is a video of a group of idiots in Maryland casually hanging out with a black bear at a picnic table, with one dude eventually making and feeding the bear a peanut butter sandwich. According to the woman filming, “This was a friend’s cabin and they said that the bear is always around and never really bothers them.” Well it’s probably going to start bothering them now. Haven’t you ever heard of not feeding the animals? Or even socializing with them? I swear, there’s not enough Miller Lite in the world. “For you to hang out that close to a bear?” No I just meant in general, we could never have too much cheap domestic beer.

Yogi Bear would rather eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches than steal people's picnic baskets. 🥪🐻😂#BearsOfTwitter | #ViralVideos @FrankDangelo23 pic.twitter.com/y6RqhXzoz2
