Make Your Own Cronuts!
Cronuts have taken over New York City (and the internet) in a big way. The hybrid croissant-doughnuts are only available at one bakery, and when they're gone madness ensues. People are scalping pastries, folks. There's a cronut black market on Craigslist, where you can have one delivered to you for $40. There are bootleg "doissants." It's insanity.
Band Kid Has the Best Reaction Ever to Breaking Cymbal
Playing the crash cymbals for the 'Star Spangled Banner' in your school band is kind of a big deal.

Why Liking Something on Facebook Isn’t As Helpful As You Think
If you think you're saving the world by liking a page on Facebook, UNICEF Sweden has got some news for you -- you're not. Liking a page is a great way to keep informed about a charity or cause, but unless it's part of a specific campaign, it doesn't actually do much good...
Postman Teaches Kid a Lesson He Won’t Forget
We're not sure if this is the best or worst postman in the world. On the one hand, he really makes sure that mail gets delivered. On the other hand, now a toddler is crying. You know what? We're going to go with best postman in the world, because this GIF exists thanks to him.
‘Futurama’ Characters React to Cancellation

The network opted out of renewing the show for another season, meaning that the 13 episodes airing this summer will be the show's last. In theory.
