Fan theories about pop culture franchises are like adding candy to movie theater popcorn- fun and easy to digest in small quantities, gobble up too much and you may end up feeling sick.
But when a fan puts as much work into their theory as Shawn Kohne has put into his Adam Sandler-based “Sandlerverse” theory you've gotta bite and take a look.
Shawn's “Sandlerverse” theory ties together every project Sandler has ever worked on, including the stuff he did for Saturday Night Live and his musical albums, and as bats#$t crazy as that sounds Shawn makes it work.
In case you're on the fence about watching this eight minute long video here's a taste:
In Happy Gilmore (1996), Chubbs (portrayed by Carl Weathers) falls through a window, presumably to his death. But four years later in Little Nicky, Chubbs reappears in heaven. What does Reese Witherspoon have to say about Chubbs? She tells Nicky that he used to be a golf pro (Chubbs’ job in Happy Gilmore) but now he’s known in heaven for being the dopest dancer. Likewise, sportscaster Dan Patrick seems to play the same cop in The Longest Yard (2005) and in I Now Pronounce You Chuck & Larry (2007).
That drunk and drooling old man may not look like much, but take it from the Gromflomites and the poor subjugated Mr. Meeseeks- Rick Sanchez is an evil mastermind, capable of breaking down and taking out entire worlds for the sake of making money. Rick is wanted for various crimes throughout the Mortyverse, and whenever he shows up on a world the residents start shaking in their boots, afraid he might bring death and destruction to their world. And now that he has embraced his bad side, telling everyone to call him Ricksenberg, people turn sheet white when they see him and his bulb-headed little grandson landing on their planet. The universe's only hope to stop the Rick Sanchez menace from destroying reality as we know it- a Galactic Federation agent named Walter...
Make a break with bad and boring fashion by bringing home this criminally cool Ricksenberg t-shirt by Soulkr, it's sure to make your fellow fans drool with delight!

Going to see the doctor isn't anybody's idea of a pleasure trip, and even if the whole thing goes smoothly we still can't help but wonder “what if” during the drive to and from the doc's office.
And then many of us lie when we're pressed for personal information by the doctor, afraid the truth will result in a bad diagnosis when the truth is actually what doctors need to nip our health problems in the bud.
Are you a smoker or drug user, no matter how casual? Tell your doctor so they can test for smoking and drug-related issues, and if you want to quit your doctor can certainly help you out.
And here are two of the worst lies you can tell your doctor- "I haven't taken any prescription drugs", a lie which can result in harmful interactions with drugs your doctor may prescribe, and "I didn't eat or drink anything prior to surgery", a lie which can cause this to happen:
when a patient is put to sleep via anesthesia, their lower esophageal sphincter (the valve that connects the esophagus to the stomach) relaxes. During this period of relaxation, says Khan, food contents from the stomach can dangerously regurgitate up into the patient’s mouth and snake their way into the patient’s trachea (windpipe) on their way to the lungs. Once in the lungs, this regurgitated acidic food material can start to cause inflammation and may even lead to the development of a pneumonia.
Mastiffs could pretty much have their breed's name changed to massive and never miss a beat, because they're one of the largest dog breeds both in terms of height and weight.
And yet dogs are dogs no matter the size, so of course old Baron thinks he wants to be a lap dog, crushing his owner Mark York like a big, boneheaded lover.
It costs Mark over $200 a week to feed Baron, and believe it or not Baron is only 2 years old so he may end up eating poor Mark out of house and home!
Alfred Pennyworth is the most underrated character in the Batman universe, because there would be no Dark Knight, and no billionaire Bruce Wayne as we know him, without Alfred's guidance.
Alfred has proven time and again he's no ordinary valet/butler- he's a tactician, a hacker, a makeup artist, an actor, a medic and Bruce's counselor/father figure.
But the creators liked the way William Austin looked as Alfred in the 1943 Batman film serial so much they decided to change his look and his name, and Beagle became Pennyworth.
There are other inconsistencies in Alfred's backstory, but a few things remain constant- he received British Army training, he doesn't have a problem using firearms, and he enjoys breeding roses.
If you're looking for eating power then talk to Garfield, if you're looking for the power of cuteness then Nermal is your guy, and if you need the power of boring on your side then you've gotta go with John. But nobody harnesses slobber power quite like that dopie dog Odie, which is why Garfield hates him with a passion! Odie has a seemingly endless supply of slobber hidden in his stupid looking body, and once he revvs up his tongue engine there's no stopping that slobber barrage from hitting everyone in the room like a Mack truck!

Sitting at a desk for hours at a time can lead to fidgeting, and some people swear they think more clearly when their hands are kept busy.
Until recently that meant fidgeting with office supplies and stress balls, or some expensive piece of desk jewelry that looks really cool but doesn't satisfy that fidgety feeling.
But now there's the Fidget Cube by Antsy Labs- a fun little vinyl desk toy featuring an assortment of ways to stay fidgety on its six faces.
The Fidget Cube looks like hours of fun for your fingers, and the creators stand by its power to clear the mind and promote creativity, so it's not just a toy- it's an investment in your desk-bound career.
Even though we only get to see the adventures of that one famous Time Lord we all affectionately refer to as The Doctor there are many other doctorly types out there too. Each one pilots his or her own Tardis, just for the sake of continuity, mind you, and each one of their blue police boxes were custom made to fit that particular Time Lord's personality. So if you come across Doctor Boo's spooky box don't be scared, but don't fall in Doctor Loo's box or you'll have some showering to do, and if you see Doctor Flu's box and you haven't had your shot then head for the hills!

Contortionists are fun yet painful to watch, and the better the contortionist the more we're left wondering how the hell they can twist their own body that way without breaking it.
But few contortionists can incorporate dance into their body bending routines like Shakirudeen Adewale Alade, aka Bonetics, and his hybrid body rock is electrifying to watch.
Unsurprisingly Bonetics was a big hit at the Festival Mondial du Cirque de Demain- Paris, where many young circus performers make a name for themselves, because who wouldn't want to watch him do his stuff?!
Wildlife conservationists have to be compassionate, patient and creative, because many of the problems they run into aren't easy to solve.
But ingenuity is one of our greatest assets, so we're often able to find solutions and save animals that would otherwise die a needless death.
The veterinary staff at the California Wildlife Center recently rescued a mockingbird with feet that were knuckling bad, leaving the poor bird unable to perch or walk without damaging its feet.
So they came up with a creative solution to this mockingbird's bad foot problem- little snowshoes to help retrain the bird's feet to open and allow the broken bones to heal.
And now the shoes are off and that lucky little mockingbird is on the mend!
Pokémon GO has been slowly but surely turning smartphone gamers into zombified "trainers", who wander around the world with their eyes glued to the GO screen searching for Pokémon hot spots.
Thankfully, Pokémon GO is a pretty harmless game, but imagine if games like The Legend Of Zelda, Mario Party, Super Smash Bros and Fallout had similar apps. The world would be doomed!
If Pokémon GO players aren't careful they're liable to find themselves joining roving gamer gangs, teaming up to hunt down and catch all the Pokémon no matter where they hide.
Of course, trainers turning against each other in the quest to catch 'em all seems like a more realistic scenario...
Comic artist extraordinaire JHALL has illustrated six alternate GO app scenarios to satisfy our curiosity, demonstrating how good Pokémon GO actually is and how bad other GO style apps could be!
Bakers and pastry chefs have elevated the art of making cakes from the simple sheet to edible three-dimensional sculptures that are almost too cool looking to eat.
And then Ukranian architectural designer and cake baker Dinara Kasko decided cakes could still look really cool in basic shapes, so she started making these geometric cake masterpieces.
Her modern art-inspired cakes are simplistic and simply elegant, but the simplicity belies the fine detail work and geometric perfection Dinara puts into each cake she creates.
Dinara achieves this amazing(ly perfect) level of geometric detail with a little help from 3D printed silicone molds that keep the edges sharp, but the rest of the cake magic is all applied by hand.
The Netflix series Narcos has brought Pablo Escobar back into the spotlight some twenty years after his death at the hands of the Colombian National Police, but as usual some liberties were taken with the truth.
And since Pablo's son Sebastian Marroquin (formerly Juan Pablo Escobar) just so happens to have recently released the book Pablo Escobar: Mi Padre he decided to set the record straight about Narcos on Facebook.
Sebastian starts his 28 point criticism by claiming Pablo's brother-in-law Carlos Henao was never involved in any of the drug activity, stating he "was an architect who helped build some houses, roads and bridges of the hacienda Naples to my father".
He then goes on to drop this truth bomb on us:
2. My Father was not a supporter of Atlético Nacional, but of the independiente medellín. If the writers don’t even know the favorite team of Pablo, how dare to tell you the rest of a story like that and sell it as true? Do everything okay?
The truth gets much darker from there, and the Facebook translation gets even worse:
4. on the escape of the Cathedral: there was no confrontation so big there, only a keeper of the prison died. Those who were not clashed. My Father had no contacts, no help from the law to escape.
8. My mother never bought or used a weapon. Everything about it is a lie. Never even shot.
9. My Father did not kill any personally to Colonel “Carrillo” as they call it in the series to the chief of the block of search. Many attacks made him to the police of Colombia and they died more than 500 in a month in the city of medellin at the end of the 80’s.
10. Those who are knowledgeable in the background of the story, you know that my father was wrong seriously ordering the death of those who were their partners and lenders, moncada and galeano. These last few were kidnapped by the cartel of Cali and to have them released alive, they promised to give to Paul and his men at the same time they demanded to cut the whole economic aid. Had phone records showing that change of loyalties. My Father still decided to forgive the life of moncada at the last minute, but by the time he got the order to stop his murder, death had already found. And this was one of the crimes determinants in the fall and the end of my father.
