Inspiring Man With Cerebral Palsy Works Out Like a Champ
Let this video be your inspiration/motivation for the day (or perhaps the rest of your life). Scott was born with cerebral palsy. Despite doctors telling his mother when he was a baby that he would be a "vegetable," Scott works out at the gym, and can lift bigger weights than we can. He also walks on a treadmill, which is more cardio than we've done in the past three years or so.

Funny Video Proves Siri Is a Real Jerk

It seems one of the disadvantages of always wearing sunglasses is that it makes it a lot easier for somebody to impersonate you. Even if you're incredibly famous. That's how an impostor managed to party it up at Cannes, while celebrities were excitedly tweeting about meeting Psy.

Watch the ‘Workaholics’ Gang Rap About Wizards
It would be perfectly understandable to be disappointed if you were looking forward to seeing the guys from 'Workaholics' on Conan's show, and he announced that they had to cancel last minute.

What’s Wrong With the Xbox One, In Meme Form
Microsoft unveiled their new gaming console yesterday, and people were not impressed. Actually, they were pretty complain-y and grumpy about it. They don't like the name (Xbox One). They don't like all the features. They don't like any of it. (Particularly how the Microsoft folks pretty much just talked about TV the whole time.)

Our Favorite Non Sequiturs from Reddit’s /r/Trees
/r/Trees is a friendly subreddit (or forum) on Reddit for pot smokers to hang around and talk about marijuana-related stuff together. Sometimes they get a little... sidetracked though. They have a scale that goes from (totally sober) to (this guy). These are some of our favorite posts which we've set to stock photos. These posts are all on a level. Because, let's be real -- if you're a , there's no way you're going to be able to type a coherent sentence on Reddit. They're pretty ridiculous. Enjoy!

Improv Everywhere Turns Subway Car Into Talk Show
It's something only Improv Everywhere could accomplish -- going on to a subway car, making a huge ruckus and not annoying every single person on the train. This time, the team set up a late night-style talk show, complete with desk, comfy chair, backdrop and band. Technically the band was just a guy with a keytar, but we'll allow it.
