Favorite Things--Video Edition!

An exuberant 1-year-old American bulldog mix named King interrupts the weather report on live TV, possibly in search of steak treats.


This pit bull loves when his daddy sings to him.



Jonathan Toews buys Girl Scout cookies and fails at ironing. Also there is a puppy.

Favorite Things Friday the THIRTEENTH!!

This week's Favorite Things.


Chris Pratt, Chris Evans, and Jimmy Fallon photobomb people at the Super Bowl.

Alex Ovechkin donates a car to the Washington Ice Dogs of the American Special Hockey League. You gotta read this whole story. It's worth it.

I know this one's been all over, but dude! The oldest man in Australia knits TINY TINY sweaters for TINY TINY penguins to help them recover from oil spills. If that doesn't make your heart all squishy I don't know what will. (Also, one of these penguins needs a Pens jersey. Get on that, oldest man in Australia!)

My favorite things on the Internet this week are:

2. These two idiots. Because they're awesome.

Chris Pratt and Chris Evans' Super Bowl bet has raised nearly $27,000 in total donations for the charities involved.

Favorite Things

The holidays are over (finally), and my schedule is heading back toward normal, whatever that is. So here are my favorite things on the Internet this week.
