Hey, sexy internet. Thank you for all your amazing submissions to the… We here at ANIMAL’s #VeryShortFilmFest have had a great time exploring Vine as a social and artistic platform, without asking their permission. We liked those arty and/or XXX-ish 6-minute videos you made. Our awesome judges — Stoya, Casey Neistat, Clayton Cubitt, Nate “Igor” Smith and Zoetica Ebb — […]
Start-up TaxiTreats has a nifty scheme: by this summer, select NYC taxis will be equipped with “Vengo” — the vending machine that sells everything from gum to lotions to… condoms. The proposed machines will accept credit cards and will operate via touch screen. Er, don’t worry, Vengo will also offer hand sanitizer. While the company has yet […]
The Harlem Shake is all but dead (hopefully), and people might be voraciously searching for the new horse to beat past death. Gallon smashing–in which one carelessly tosses two gallons of liquid in the air near unsuspecting supermarket patrons as he pretends he slipped– is not it. As hilarious as this is, please don’t make […]
Students at the University of Surrey in the UK taking a Practical and Biomedical Bacteriology course imprinted their smartphone screens onto petri dishes with grow media to see what kind of bacteria was lurking. Three days later, they found #art. The colorized result are not just alluring abstract designs, there are narrative and performative elements […]
Selfless Portraits is a project in which people across the world create an artistic rendering of a random stranger’s Facebook profile picture, in exchange for having their own photo art-ified as well.

Really close up, using that special hacked camera again. Check back every […]
Revel in the excess of this newest Harmony Korine’s Spring Breakers trailer. Now with 117% more drug imagery, 122% more signs that James Franco’s RiFF RAFF-esque “Alien” is definitely sleazing up on into his entire runaway teen-girl robber harem, and 152% longer soliloques about crime paying. Also, intentional boob. Here’s all your Spring Breakers stuff. March 22nd. […]
Earlier this week, we presented evidence that cats have always fucked up our shit with a 15th-century document marked with pawprints. Another instance has been discovered; on a really old brick, there are little paws indented into the side. After some examination by a master’s student at Sonoma State, the hypothesis seems to be that […]
So you’ve tweeted your last tweet, just before heading into the great social network in the sky. Would you rather have your feed lie unpopulated and empty for the rest of eternity, or, if you could, would you like to have it keep on tweeting, retweeting, and favoriting, long after you’ve passed beyond the physical […]
What’s this? A list? Yes, we made a list. Whoop de doo dah. For those special moments when you quote a movie and the other person, for some reason, has never seen said movie and so you awkwardly stand there looking like a creepy asshole… Here’s some bad stuff that sounds worse out of context. 10.
