SodaStream Bringing Banned Commercial to Super Bowl 2013
Getting banned in the UK for "denigrating" bottled drinks won't stop SodaStream from bringing their message to the biggest advertising opportunity in the world -- Super Bowl 2013. The advertisement shows people carbonating water with a SodaStream and making the bottles the beverages are contained in instantly disappear. Apparently other soda manufacturers were upset and the ad was pulled from British television.

The Coney Island Polar Bear Club's annual New Year's swim looks like a great time. People in costumes, swimming, having fun. We probably should've gone, but there was that whole hangover thing to deal with. Which makes us wonder, does jumping into the freezing Atlantic ocean cure a hangover? If so, we're totally there next year.

Subway ‘Sandwich Artist’ Fired Over Ketchup Dispute Gone Awry
Maybe Subway is stepping up their game a tad. They've made it abundantly clear that they now have avocados and sriracha sauce, and they will NOT be putting ketchup on anybody's sandwich. At all.

Baby Is Just As Confused By Roomba As We Are
Babies don't have to be laughing to be cute. This one is just very confused, and it's working for her. To be fair, she has every right to be confused -- her parents stuck her on a robot that is carting her around her living room

Parents Have Hilarious Breakdown After Watching ‘Les Mis’
We haven't seen people this upset over a movie since those poor, poor children realized they were going to die one day after watching 'The Odd Life of Timothy Green.' These two fully-grown, middle-aged humans have, in fact, "been to funerals of family members and cried less" than they did watching Anne Hathaway's descent from factory worker to toothless prostitute. All it took was sitting through an afternoon matinee of 'Les Miserables.'

Watch Some Students Pull a Hilarious Prank on Their Principal
Here's a little gem from the TruTv reality show 'Principal's Office.' We aren't really sure how the principal thought it was going to go when he brought in two student "leaders" to ask them for help solving the school's "grinding" problem, but this seems about right.

The Screaming Sheep Acts the Way You Feel
We're all feeling it. Only this sheep is brave enough to express it. Because if you screamed like this in the office or at school, something bad would probably happen. We're not sure what, because nobody's ever done it

Dad Gets Surprise Puppy, Reacts Adorably
You might think that children are the only people capable of being delighted to the point of preciousness at the sight of a new puppy, but you would be wrong. Look at this manly dad, for example. He bangs on a car, covers his face with adorable fists, and does a little dance

Competitive Eater Tackles Denny’s Hobbit Menu in 20 Minutes
We're seriously rethinking our hobbies. James "The Bear" McDonald is seen here plowing his way through the entirety of Denny's special "Hobbit" menu, because he's a competitive eater and that's what he does. We, on the other hand, have a drawer full of half-finished socks.
