Panning for Internet Gold: The Hula Hoop coffee-owl edition

Late September. Winter turned up early. The online community takes a collective breath post-Jepsen and waits for the next infectious phenomenon that might be mated with Star Wars references and an aggravated führer.

Don’t mind them, my pretty. Let’s waste a little time looking at the latest snark and photobombs.

Deep Space 5,500

• NASA has released the deepest image of the universe ever taken. 5,5oo galaxies. No Instagram filter. Amazing.
• Bad Lip Reading have worked their LOL-magic on the Hunger Games.
• Sarah Silverman made a [NSFW] political plea to her fellow Americans. So did Samuel L Jackson. US elections are funny.
• Call Me Maybe mashed up with R Kelly’s Ignition is better than it has any right to be.
• Alien’s Cast of Characters list is unisex and splendid.
• The Avengers have been re-imagined in the style of Tim Burton. Skinny.
• Meanwhile, that’s an odd request for Captain America [NSFW].

I DIE, I DIE

1973 saw the global peak of death-scene acting. Werq it, actor.

No, Mickey

• The effects of drugs, Disney-style.
• Nick Fury sends memos. Because even Avengers have paperwork.
• What has Game of Thrones been mashed up with this week? Bob’s Burgers. GOOD.
• Let’s pretend Gangnam Style is still happening in order to crowbar in this Han Solo version. Still over it? Try PSY dancing impressively to Single Ladies.
• Julia lost 160lbs in one year. Watch her shrink in a few changing room mirror photos.
• These living paintings are fascinating and lovely.

The furry corner

• Grumpy cat is not having any of it. I swear I’ve shared meeting rooms with its human incarnation.
• The stakes are rising in the Stingray photobomb game.
• A caterpillar is apparently like X-Box for gorillas.
• Baby ape (complete with nappy) has the very life of his cat-mate.
• I wonder what Barack Obama would look like, riding a lion and brandishing a crossbow. Oh.

Wake up, boo

It’s worth waiting the 19 seconds until this baby armadillo adorably roars into life.
