Chimp Refuses To Comply With Photoshoot


If we know anything about chimps, it's that they aren't going to go along with your plans. And if we know anything else about chimps, they seem to like ripping things off of other things. Those are the two things we know about chimps. Here's what happened when a photographer tried to set up a chimp photoshoot.

Rude Drivers Block Only Road In Florida Keys To Take Photos


There's a time and a place for everything, and my dudes, this ain't it. There's a glaring, deeply troubling display of a complete detachment from reality amongst this crew. Clearly, there was never any kind of thought process that went into considering the fact that people might actually have places to be. 

Mario Kart 8 Speedrunner Perfects Blowing Himself Up


Speedrunner Skilloz is operating at a different frequency, folks. Skilloz dominated the infamous "blue yourself" challenge. This challenge requires players to intentionally detonate themselves with blue shells. A task that's definitely easier said than done. The meme category itself has been around since March '21. Skilloz has already set the record twice. Just in case you were unaware, the blue shell locks onto whichever player is in first place. To make matters even more difficult, it also only spawns and sticks around for 30 measly seconds for whoever is at least 2K units away from first place. 

So, the breakdown for that means that you'd have to make power moves from last to first place before you go ahead and launch the shell at the exact moment that you take the lead. In this particular performance from Skilloz they pretty much come as close to perfection as is humanly possible. This is because they open the item box at exactly 30 seconds, and then chuck the shell with a near-perfect flight path. Meanwhile, I think I'll just stick to old-fashioned games like Beerio Kart, and see how many hops I can guzzle down before completing Rainbow Road becomes an insurmountable journey.

Tumblr User Explains What "Eldritch" Actually Means


If it's not clear by now, the internet pitches a visible tent over the term "Eldritch" or "Eldritch Abomination" to the point that it's been overused and lacking in meaning.
