Let's All Have a Moment of Silence for This Lost Chicken Dinner
The people of Cheltenham, England were devastated by tragedy in the night. The extent of the fallout from this incident is as yet unknown. First reported by The Gloucestershire Echo, this sad, entire chicken dinner was found strewn about the pavement early Thursday morning.
Residents have been reacting on social media, most with compassion, some with outrage over the lack of coverage by 'mainstream' media outlets.

Here's hoping the Cheltenham community is able to recover quickly from this incident. Someone will probably start a GoFundMe campaign for it if they haven't already.

One of the Game of Thrones Writers Re-Watched the Red Wedding and Live-Tweeted the Whole Thing
Bryan Cogman is a writer on the HBO show, Game of Thrones.

Which is understandable because it's not really something any GOT fan wants to go through again. But Bryan did it, just for us. And he live-tweeted the whole episode. Here are the highlights.

This video was made just before they won that 14th game:
It seems like mom still has some veto power but they'll be pretty disappointed if she chooses something else now. In fact, apparently David Evans, the writer of The Sandlot dropped by to wish them well.

Mario Wolfs Down a Magic Mushroom, and Puts on a Massive Display at a Grocery Store
They grow 'em big out in Missoula, Montana--literally. The smalltime organic local grocer, Orange Street Food Farm is displaying a bewitching, window-length installation of Toadstool, Luigi, and Mario that consists of 12-pack soda bottles.
The store's weekend manager disclosed to the press that the whole operation's the ingenious brainchild of a Coca Cola Sales rep (a raise probably fast approaches on the horizon). Here's a closer look at the 12-foot high display:
