This video isn’t so much funny as mind blowing. I had to watch it a few times because it took me so long to get over the fact that the Canadian astronaut is in zero gravity, but what it boils down to is the ways in which water acts and reacts in space. Very simple experiment, very simple explanation. But nonetheless I found it amazing. If the everyday act of straining the water out of a washcloth can be so beautiful, just imagine the other possibilities. Needless to say, I am profoundly jealous and in awe of those people lucky enough to experience that kind of environment. So if Starfleet could just hurry up and exist I would be very grateful.

Monday Pick Me Up : Dogs in Tights Will Make Anyone Happy
When you’re having one of those days, when it seems like everything is going wrong, just look at these photos of dogs in tights. And be happy.
The person who first thought to put a pair of tights on their dog is a genius. Thank you mystery person, for making my week that little bit brighter.

Monday Pick Me Up : YouTube 1, Humanity 0
YouTube’s genius April Fool’s prank is worth a watch if only for the indignant comments that it created…I do love a YouTube troll.
Monday Pick Me Up: Jimmy Fallon wiggle wiggles with Bruce Springsteen
In a reprisal of their memorable Whip My Hair performance, Bruce Springsteen and Jimmy Fallon teamed up once again on the latter’s late night talk show to perform their rendition of LMFAO’s Sexy And I Know It. There really are no words to describe the wiggle wiggle-ing that takes place, you’ll just have to watch it for yourself.
Monday Pick Me Up: Two pints of heavy for the Scotsmen in Rome
I’ve been a bit nostalgic, comedy-wise, on YouTube recently, and have been looking up all of the sketches that I haven’t heard for a while. From Monty Python to George Carlin, I’ve been chuckling away to all of my comedy heroes. It doesn’t get much better than an irate John Cleese, but it is one sketch that had forgotten existed, from the marvelous Billy Connolly, that I just had to share. The two Scotsmen in Rome has been etched in my mind for years, I couldn’t remember every detail but I knew that I howled with laughter whenever I listen to it. I also happened upon the Jobbie Weecha, two words: comic. gold.

This week I’ve become a bit obsessed with the most recent episode of SNL, in which alum Maya Rudolph returns to her former stomping ground, along with a few surprise guests. Justin Timberlake and Amy Poehler both popped up for stellar cameos in skits poking fun at Beyonce’s new baby, as well reviving the old favourite, Bronx Beats. My personal favourite was the Super Showcase sketch, in which pretty much everyone involved was corpsing at Shonda and Vonda (Rudolph and Kristen Wiig) as they took a contestant through the various surprises that they could’ve won. I think that the best sketches are the ones that are so funny that even the performers can’t help but laugh, and you become a part of a group of friends who are, let’s face it, pissing around on stage and doing silly voices. Haven’t we all done something similar? Anyway, it’s not available on Youtube and my HTML skills are not quite up to scratch yet so you’ll have to click on the link below, enjoy.
Monday Pick Me Up: Dubai know their way around a fountain
It seems that a lot of people still can’t get over the fact that Whitney Houston died on Saturday, there are various tributes being paid to her, from Jennifer Hudson’s emotional performance at The Grammys to a moment of silent remembrance on SNL. But some have found a unique way to pay their respects, in Dubai a fountain danced with lights as ‘I Will Always Love You’ sang out into the night. It was so. Beautiful. It would have been beautiful whether it was a tribute or not, but the added poignancy gave it a more of a heavenly context, and I can’t stop watching it. It may not be much of a pick me up, but it will definitely leave you breathless.
