If you thought you were badass check this guy out. Respect.

You gotta see this crazy cat video, bro! This cat takes fist pumping to a whole new level. Watch him tail-wag-pump, spin-records-pump and body-vibrate-pump like a total pro.

As if The Wilderness Downtown (the band's experimental music video on Google Chrome) wasn't cool enough, The Arcade Fire have outdone themselves in their video for "The Suburbs." The video's directed by Spike Jonze and has the director's signature vibe.

Shortly after the election, incoming House Speaker John Boehner burnished his common-man cred by pledging to fly commercial, instead of using the private military plane afforded him. Nice. But he'll still be able to bypass the TSA's molestation routine.

Manmeet and Gupta are a regular Troy and Abed! Okay, not necessarily, but last night's episode did contain a silly laser tag in the office subplot (Community used paintball in a classic season one episode).

Movies! Nobody doesn't like 'em. Everyone likes them even more because they come out on Fridays, which is America's favorite day. So let's take a look at what movies are coming out today, from wizard adventures to prison breaks.

Your daily look into the twitterific lives of our favorite celebs.

Google receives "tens of thousands" of requests each year from the government to turn over user data, and it complies with any it deems legitimate. But the information comes at a cost: 25 bucks per head.

Miranda Cosgrove is the star of Nickelodeon's iCarly, but you probably know her best from her role in the 2003 film School of Rock (yes, that's her!). She is home-schooled and currently in the 12th grade.

Today we looked at the alleged secret sex life of John Travolta, causing many of you commenters to make silly jokes and be generally ribald. Luckily one commenter took this matter deeply seriously. Observe their grave words.

Today's Oprah Winfrey Show marked the final episode of "Oprah's Favorite Things." After Winfrey announced the surprise to her audience, it went predictably insane. As in, crying, screaming, falling to the floor crazy.

Former President George W. Bush appeared on The Tonight Show Thursday night. We've gathered up all of the surprisingly funny jokes he told for your enjoyment (or not.)

Kelsey Grammer returns to TV, visit 30 Rock's Pronouncify.com, NBC orders a reality show based on the game of catch, and a small glimpse of Oprah's audience losing their shit during her "Favorite Things" episode that aired earlier today.

The Way We Live Now: not studiously. We'll break it down as patriotically as possible: America wasn't built by a bunch of nerd boys in pocket protectors playing calculator games called "math." America was built by men! Poor, math-illiterate men.

With the exception of Leah Remini, who looks pretty awesome in her vintage headshot, The Talk women's pictures make us happy the 80s are over. Oh, wait. We saw leggings and shoulder pads in the East Village just this morning.

Apparently the "DC handlers" sent to help Nevada Senate candidate Sharron Angle wouldn't let her staff air this crappy ad. It shows old people scouring the desert for Social Security money. Was it too comically amateurish, or not racist enough?

We all knew Harvey Levin's TMZ pays people to leak information to them, as recently fired L.A. County Superior Court spokesman has been accused of doing. But their real secret? Just plant a staffer on the courthouse payroll. [Update below]

TONIGHT: We've got the HBO comedy special, Dennis Miller: The Big Speech, plus new episodes of School Pride, Blue Bloods, Smallville, Supernatural, CSI: New York, Medium, WWE Smackdown, and much more. Happy weekend!
