Wagga Wagga, Australia was recently subjected to some serious flooding. Unfortunately, when the 9,000 human residents were evacuated, the area's spiders took over, covering the entire area with a white mist of webs. The resulting pictures are equal parts beautiful and creepy and definitely not to be missed.

Gumbo, bacon and tacos are all delicious, but that doesn't mean they'll make great ramen flavors necessarily. Of course, there's still a possibility that they are good, just not a guarantee. Have any of you ever had one of these weird ramen flavors? If so, what did you think?

Alex already told you the story of how tree lobsters were rediscovered after they were already believed to be extinct almost a century, but what you might not know is how creepy the creature looks while hatching. Feel free to watch, but don't be ashamed if you have to turn away.

To be fair, not everyone likes Chuck Norris, whether it’s because they loathe his political beliefs, his violent action flicks, his purported plagiarism on WorldNetDaily, or because they are just sick and tired of the meme associated with him. But even if you don’t like certain things about Mr. Norris, there’s still plenty to appreciate, from his underdog back story to his constant philanthropic efforts, he isn’t a bad guy by any means. In honor of the legend, let’s celebrate his March 10 birthday with a few real Chuck Norris facts.
His Real Name Isn’t “Charles”
While most “Chucks” use the nickname to stand in for “Charles,” Mr. Norris was actually born Carlos Ray Norris. He was named for his father’s minister, Carlos Berry. In fact, it wasn’t until he joined the Air Force that Carlos became “Chuck” Norris.
He Didn’t Grow Up Kicking Butt
Sure, these days ghosts sit around the campfire and tell Chuck Norris stories, but back when Chuck was a youngster, he was usually busy being bullied, not being the bully. Most of the insults were directed at his mixed race heritage, as Norris is mostly Irish and Cherokee and children of the forties and fifties weren’t exactly multi-culturally sensitive. Seriously though, how could anyone be mean to the adorable kiddo in that picture? While you still might imagine that little Carlos would at least stand up for himself when being picked on, at the time, he wasn’t very athletic and his shyness only compounded the problem. Rather than taking action, he only dreamed about beating up on his tormentors. Image via ChuckNorris.com
The Air Force Made Him Who He Is
Not only did “Chuck” get his nickname after joining the USAF, he also learned how to fight while serving, thus the Force is responsible for making him into the only person who can slam revolving doors. In fact, his black belt training in Tang Soo Do led to Chuck starting his own form of martial arts, Chun Kuk Do, which combines all of the different fighting styles he learned throughout his life.
He Influenced A Lot of People You Wouldn’t Expect

Like most television shows, The Muppet Show's pilot was quite different than the show itself ended up being. In this case, the original didn't feature Kermit as the host and did feature a lot more adult humor. Don't miss the other three parts of the pilot over at Laughing Squid.

You might think that baby sloths are born knowing how to crawl, but it's actually a skill they must be taught. When it comes to abandoned babies though, it takes a jungle gym and a dedicated staff. Fortunately, all that work pays off when you get an absolutely precious video like this!
