Happy New Year! Why not start your year off right -- by watching Anderson Cooper desperately trying to keep Kathy Griffin's face away from his groin.
Anybody who thinks Reddit is just for misogyny and creepy porn is only PARTLY right. They do their fair share of good as well. The story of a man dying of cancer is one such instance. Thanks to the good people of Reddit this loyal Trekkie will get to see some, if not all, of the new 'Star Trek' movie before he dies, thanks to the one and only J.J. Abrams.
Send back the presents -- we really don't need them. We only need this video of a baby panda playing with a ball. Sincerely, watch it and tell us if you don't agree. We think Xiao Liwu, a cub at the San Diego Zoo, is ridiculously adorable
So Friday, December 21 is maaaaaaaybe going to be the apocalypse because a really old calendar ran out of space. It's already tomorrow in Australia, and people are reporting that it's fine. Of course other people are pointing out that the ancient Mayans weren't really operating on Greenwich Mean Time, so maybe Australia should just cool their jets.

Taking the random tribal music out of a piece of performance art and replacing it with the song from the latest James Bond movie is one way to make an instant joke. This video is a piece of performance art by Melati Suryodarmo called "butterdance," but the song is 'Skyfall' by Adele. It's definitely more dramatic.
Here's your daily dose of cute -- Santa pretending to sleep for a picture with a sleeping baby.
It's nice to know that Google isn't just harvesting information about us and selling it to advertisers. Look! They also used our searches to make this video! The video, 'Zeitgeist 2012: Year In Review,' shows the top (non-porn) search terms for the last year and includes video as much as possible
