In this Funny or Die's series "Between Two Ferns," community organizer and President of the United States Barack Obama (SP?) traded barbs with Galifianakis while touting Obamacare.
There are many memorable lines, but my favorite is this one:
Galifianakis: "In 2013 you pardoned a turkey. What are you going to do in 2014?"
Obama: "We'll probably pardon another turkey. We do that every Thanksgiving. Was that depressing to you? Seeing a turkey taken out of circulation, a turkey you couldn't eat?"
*Obama trollface*
And where else have you seen anyone shushed the President?

H2G2 fans rejoice! For its 30th anniversary, the BBC has released an online version of the classic 1984 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy game, created based on Douglas Adams' iconic sci-fi book of the same name in collaboration with Steve Meretzky of Infocom.
The text game begins with the impending destruction of Arthur Dent's house and annihilation of Earth by the Vogons. It looks quaint, but beware, as the website warns "the game will kill you frequently. It's a bit mean like that."
The game takes a bit of fumbling around to play at first, but it's mostly harmless. Here's a clue, first: stand up, turn on the light, hold gown, wear gown, look into pocket, then take the analgesic.
Inspired after attending a drag show for the first time, Saint Hoax decided to deconstruct the "recipe" of making an iconic queen and came up with the following:
1- Flamboyant name
2- Fierce persona
3- Defining outfits
4- Personalized hairdo
5- A trademark feature
6- One hell of a PR team
Noting the similarity between that and what it takes to craft a political image, Saint Hoax decided to apply the techniques to do make-overs of some of the world's most famous (and infamous) political figures in the art series War Drags You Out:
I then realized that it takes that same exact effort to make a leader.
A rush of images containing Hitler's mustache, Bin laden's headgear, Obama's campaigns, Saddam's narcism crossed through my mind. It got me thinking that behind every "great" man, there's a queen.
Like drag queens, political/religious leaders are expected to entertain, perform and occasionally lip-sync a public speech. But unlike drag queens, the fame hungry leaders don't know when to take their costumes off.

That's right: a new study by researchers from Purdue University showed that rather than being courteous, you are actually doing harm to a man's self-esteem and self-confidence by holding the door open for him.
In this experiment, Purdue psychologists Megan McCarthy and Janice Kelley positioned a research associate so that when someone approached a double door to a building on campus, the associate either stepped ahead and opened the door for him or her, or fell in line and opened the door at the same time as the test subject. Then, inside the building, the test subject was approached by another researcher and asked to answer a short survey.
The survey asked whether the subject agreed with statements designed to measure self-esteem ("I feel that I'm a person of worth, at least on an equal plane with others") and self-confidence ("I can usually achieve what I want if I work hard for it.")
The result is interesting: male, but not female, subjects reported lower levels of self-esteem and self-confidence when the door was held open for them.
The researchers noted that "behaviors as fleeting and seemingly innocuous as door holding can have unforeseen negative consequences." They speculated that the gesture, polite as it may be, unintentionally send the message to a man that he is "inferior or too dependent."
Is this dog in-bread? The pure-bread is the toast of the town! He's so cute you can just eat him up ... unless you prefer beagel or a baguette hound, of course.
