Guy Solves A Puzzle On Wheel Of Fortune With Just One Letter

Wheel of Fortune isn't the hardest game show on television, nor is it the show contestants go on to prove how smart they are, but when someone solves a puzzle with just one letter it's still mighty impressive.

Enthusiastic word nerd Robert Santoli went on Wheel of Fortune to win, and after guessing a puzzle with only one letter he continues to crush the game by solving puzzles with just a few letters in place.

Robert's performance was so impressive people thought he'd cheated, but the show cleared him and paid him his $76k in prize money.

So how did Robert win big at Wheel of Fortune? He studied the show for over 10 years, creating spreadsheets to study letter and word patterns found in the show, especially the link between subjects and certain words or phrases.

Nic Cage Hunts Bin Laden With A Samurai Sword In Army Of One

Nicolas Cage is a hero created by the people for the people, and whether you're a fan or a super fan you have to admit one thing- Nic Cage is quite a character both on and off the screen.

Nic's latest fictional life will play out in the new movie Army of One, in which he stars as Gary Faulkner- an unemployed weirdo who hears the voice of god telling him to go capture Bin Laden. (Barely NSFW due to language)

(YouTube Link)

Army of One is loosely based on the true story of "Rocky Mountain Rambo" Gary Faulkner, who claims he went to Pakistan eleven times to hunt Bin Laden before being arrested by Pakistani police. Sounds a little too sane for a Nic Cage role...

The New Thing

New things are shiny, new things are precious, and new things make us feel good for a little while before we're on to the next new, shiny, precious thing.

Even though our brain says we should save money for a rainy day, warning us the happiness provided by material possessions is fleeting, our heart still swells every time we bring home a shiny new thing.

And so, as this comic by The Awkward Yeti shows, the battle will continue as long as we have our hearts set on owning new things, so basically for the rest of our lives.

Untold Truths About Friday The 13th

When you hear the word "slasher" you probably think about Jason Voorhees, the silent but deadly star of the Friday the 13th film franchise.

Jason's flicks set the standard for all slasher flicks to come, and even though a new Friday the 13th film hasn't come out in about 7 years Jason's bloody star continues to rise.

But would Jason be where he is today if he'd been named Josh? And would audiences have fallen so hard for Jason had he continued to wear the burlap sack he wore in the first two films?

Success!!! - Definitely Doesn't Taste Like Chicken


Success!!! by Ed Harrington

It's lucky for all the young, impressionable viewers out there that The Smurfs crew edited out what they did of the show, or else kids would have been taught an extreme life lesson when Gargamel finally caught up with poor Jokey. For the show only spoke on matters of smurfberries and sorcery, but Gargamel was also a renowned chef and gourmand, and he had always wanted to try preparing a main course that included blue steak. Naturally, he had to taste the blue meat for himself, to see what all the fuss was about, so Papa and Smurfette were forced to watch in helpless horror as Gargamel bit Jokey's head off...and that happened on the third day of shooting the show! A new Smurf was brought in to replace Jokey and the incident was never spoken of again, until Gargamel released that infernal autobiography...

This Success!!! t-shirt by Ed Harrington is morbidly maniacal and sure to make your fellow fans sneer like Azrael, but kids who see the design will probably be scarred for life...just sayin'!

Artist Creates The Pokemon-Garfield Hybrids We Didn't Know We Needed

Our phones have been urging us to catch 'em all, telling us to GO and not to come back until we're proper trainers.

But why have we been out there searching for cool critters when the coolest critter is hangin' at home in the comics page?

I'm talking, of course, about Garfield, the fat orange cat who could probably be lured into a pokeball with a tray of lasagna.

Garfield has been my favorite cartoon cat since way back when, so when I saw cartooner Shawn Bowers had been busy putting Pokemon through a Garfield-ification I finally felt the urge to GO catch 'em.

Shawn's Garfemon series is forever orange with black stripes, forever strange and forever gonna make me hungry for more.

The Pho Burrito Is The Apex Of Asian-Mexican Fusion Cuisine

(Image Link)

Pho has gone from being that dish people have heard great things about but can't seem to pronounce to a nationwide sensation, but well before pho was famous the burrito was el rey.

And considering Latino and Vietnamese communities are often found in the same part of town in the U.S. it's surprising it took so long for the Pho Burrito to appear.

But apparently the culinary world was waiting for Komodo's head chef Erwin Tjahyadi to stroll bravely into the kitchen and combine the two taste sensations into one scrumptious creation.

Here's what goes in to a Pho Burrito:

al dente rice noodles, basil, hoisin, sriracha sauce, sauteed onions, jalapeño, and thin, tender slices of ribeye beef lightly poached in a traditional pho broth.

All it's missing is a side of plum sauce salsa and an horchata Thai tea with boba!

Human Relationships Vs. Dog Relationships

We tend to think of our interpersonal relationships as far more sophisticated and complex than the relationships we share with our pets, but the two are more alike than we'd care to admit.

Both involve choosing a partner, sharing meals and affection, learning to make each other happy and discovering how to communicate those feelings words can't describe.

There are plenty of dog days during these relationships too, as we try to live in the same house without tearing each other apart and struggle to set boundaries in regards to strangers.

But as this comic by Robert Brown shows the main thing both relationships have in common is the crap- the emotional crap, the crappy gifts we buy for each other, and the times we literally come face-to-feces with each other's crap.

These Hilarious Animal T-Shirts Are Cool For Cats- And All Other Critters Too!

Cosmic Purrrcraft by Vincent Trinidad

Animals have an odd effect on people- sometimes they make us so happy we squee, other times they make us so angry we want to bite their furry little heads off.

But we're always fascinated by animals because they live without inhibitions or boundaries, and we're totally jealous of their feral freedom.

If you like some wild with your life, and you get a kick out of our crazy critter cousins, then the massive selection of animal designs at the NeatoShop will make you howl with delight!

Poor Pitiful Luigi Is Forever Player 2

(Image Link)

Poor Luigi - he's been a Mario Bro since the very beginning, and yet he's still overshadowed by his brother Mario and looked down upon by everybody else in the Mushroom Kingdom.

(Image Link)

You'd think his honorary status as one of the Super Mario Bros. would make him a more popular character, but instead his name is forgotten, his manhood is questioned, and he ends up looking for love in all the wrong places.

(Image Link)

It's not Luigi's fault that he's one of the most underrated and misunderstood characters in video games, the developers at Nintendo never seem to know what to do when a game involves Mario and Luigi too.

(Image Link)

But if they keep pushing Luigi he's liable to do something rash...

What It Would Be Like To Wake Up In Grand Theft Auto V

All gamers wonder what it would be like to live inside a video game world, but the truth is most game worlds would be too grim, dangerous and/or downright terrifying to live in for long.

For instance, the settings for the Grand Theft Auto games seem a lot like the real world, only with more rampant violence, more inept cops and way more terrible drivers causing deadly collisions.

So why wouldn't a gamer want to spend time in that slick and hyperviolent world? Two words- Trevor Philips. (NSFW language)

The short film GTA VR by Corridor shows why living in GTA V world would really suck, especially when modders start screwing with the place and you realize there's no escape from the mayhem.

The Origin Of The Phrase "Guess What Chicken Butt"

(Image Link)

Ask a little kid "guess what?", wait for them to say "what?" then reply "chicken butt" and watch their face light up at the absurdity of what you just said, either that or they'll yell something like "you're not funny!" and storm off.

Kids are weird, which is why they're likely to repeat the phrase "guess what? chicken butt" after hearing it for the first time, spreading it through the schoolyard like a linguistic flu bug.

But, like many of the silly rhymes kids love to repeat, the origin of the reference is complicated and far from common knowledge, just like the fact that butchers used to call barrels full of chicken shoulders "butts".

Simon Whistler discusses the origin of this strange schoolyard phrase in this Today I Found Out video, so you can school kids on where their favorite chicken butt joke came from!

Every Online Job Posting Ever

Job hunting can really crush your spirits, especially when you've put in time getting a degree, effort learning relevant skills and energy working for years only to find you lack a degree in forklift operation.

It seems like most employers are looking for special skills these days, and even entry level jobs want multilingual applicants with five years of experience, which just isn't working.

So let's all do like the guy in this comic by Jacob Andrews and revolt against the job market...until we find a job that accepts our questionable resume as truth!

People Who Hate Cats Are Forced To Hang Out With Kittens

It's hard for a cat lover to understand how someone could hate our feline friends, especially in their compact and ultra-cute kitten form, but there are cat haters among us- and they look just like you and I.

They often dress up their disdain for cats by claiming cats hate them or that they're allergic, but there's clearly more to the story than mere allergies or bad vibes.

The question is- can cat haters maintain their irrational hatred after hanging around a bunch of adorable kittens?

(YouTube Link)

It may never be clear why some people naturally hate cats, but while serious research continues it's good to see BuzzFeed Video messing with cat haters by conducting "social experiments".
