The Internet, I Love Thee #15

I haven’t done one of these in awhile, so I figured it was about time. I also wanted to apologize to everyone for the ridiculous amount of “events” that we have been featuring. As things cool off we will move back to the good ‘ol classic iloveuab.com feel, with long interesting articles and all around entertaining stuff. I just figured I would do my duty these first two weeks of school and pick up some slack. I have some good stuff for you this week, here we go:

Everyone is of course going crazy over this video that is supposed to be of an alive and well Michael Jackson stepping out of the corners van. See for yourself!

In college you have to learn how to read chart. You also need to learn how to stop playing WoW. Here is lesson #1:

Next up, we have the most hilarios dog costume I have ever seen. If you went to the free showing of Star Trek, you’ll like this one. Actually if you are human, you will like this one.

HAHSHSHHAHAHAHA. “The Straw That Broke The Camels Back”, or the overalls rather. This one is hilarious, I don’t know who to feel bad for, the lady or the camel.

Here is a cool pic that I keep seeing pop up of some strange clouds that were photographed over Australia. They are called “Morning Glory Clouds”

    “Why I Don’t Have a Girlfriend” pie chart made my night.

    Poor camel! Patrick likes the “two girls, one up” haha.

    Andrew, seriously thank you for the sewing machine post. Hahaha I’ve had a small curiosity about that my entire life too and you just made my night.

  • Steph says:

    I’m pretty sure that Texts From Last Night is what gets me through exam week. I’m pretty sure nothing is more polarly opposite from organic chemistry than drunken texts. Or maybe orgo causes drunken texts… might need to research that.
