You never know when sheer stupidity might reveal itself.
For the last 60 years, the city of Ypres in Belgium has held a popular "Cat Parade" that draws visitors from around the country. Kattenstoet, or the "Festival of the Cats", is held once every three years and consists chiefly of parades featuring giant cat effigies, brass bands, marchers and people riding on horseback. Revelers dressed as cats, witches or mice and march through the town to the cheer of large crowds of people who turn out on the streets. While it's all fun now, it turns out the origins of Kattenstoet are much darker.
Choosing beggars are never going to stop asking the world for free handouts. It's in their DNA at this point. We just can't fathom what compels these cheap bastards to enter into negotiations with other folks, and all the while, never plan on going above a very disagreeable 0 dollars. Like what's the point?
These memes poke fun at the fan-stereotypes of various pop music artists because let's face it, the roasts come waaay too easily. We're not going to say that these generalizations are all true, but we're also not going to say that they're wrong...We'll just leave it at that.
Anyway, without further ado, please enjoy!
We scoured the internet to bring you the cutest animal pictures of the week! Bringing you cuteness every week - stay tuned for next week's dose! If you missed last week's dose, and you need a cuteness overload, check out last week's here.
Jordan just wants to go fishing with the boys, and Sylvia is not stoked. Not stoked at all.
We live in a world, nay a galaxy, full of mash ups and because of that it was only a matter of time before someone combined Star Wars and French electronic mega-duo Daft Punk.
Luckily for us, that someone was inspired filmmaker Brian Curtin, who could create something super fun to watch.
It's a lot of walking and it takes a while before anything happens, but the pretty lights and the music are all top notch.
If you liked what you saw, Curtin supplies two additional videos for your dancing pleasure.

And a prequel to the Funk Awakens:
Move aside, cats and dogs! It's BIRB time. We just love this Tumblr page that is all about avian humor and funny bird gifs and videos.
If you're into stupidly redundant construction decisions, shirts that accidentally say "anus," or signs for businesses that also accidentally say "anus" than you've come to the right place. Let's be real, some design can use some extra thought, and some of it, like these magazine layout fails, are freakin awesome.
Feeling sapped of strength and pizzaz on this dreary Monday? Fear not! These spicy memes, fresh from the r/dankmemes subreddit are sure to inject your day with a little bit of life!
