Something strange happened at the 21st Screen Actors Guild Awards Sunday night.
Reese Witherspoon was in the middle of presenting the award for best actor in a supporting film role when a technical error caught her off guard.
A jarring audio clip of an apparent applause track started playing for a few seconds before it was quickly turned it off.
“What was that noise?” she asked. “It wasn’t me.”
Both Witherspoon and the confused audience laughed it off and moved right along. But what if that laughter was fake too?
Maybe everyone in the room was actually just a robot clone and everything about the SAG Awards was fabricated? We may never know.
In case you missed it, a couple weeks back in an awkward-coated act of utter endearment, Emma Stone went to plant a socially acceptable congratulatory kiss on her Director Damien Chazelle, for La La Land after he won an award for Best Screenplay; but he kind of stonewalled the whole thing. The cringe thrusters were set to full, and yes, it was glorious.
Now, she's here to clear it all up once and for all...kind of.
Sometimes we'll find ourselves wondering what really happened in these situations, but then we decide that's enough internet for the day. Shoutout to mrbananabeans for putting this troubling collection of cringe pictures together. We're low-key only a little bit traumatized.
WARNING: This one's kind of hard to watch. Also, can we get this reporter off the air already?
This reporter for Quebec's 24 hour news channel Le Canal Nouvelles struggles to keep it together while using the fancy touch screen display and writes a new chapter in the history of awkward live newscasts.
If there's one thing that seems glaringly obvious in these stories of weird days on the job for Walmart employees, it's that there's pretty much never a normal day on the job when you're working at Walmart. Also, people really need to stop using Walmart aisles as their own personal bathrooms.
Oh boy, the nerve on this one. It truly boggles the mind. We've got a Karen mom who expects someone that she met at a wedding to change their dog's name, because Karen wants the same name for her upcoming baby. Um. Wonder if she's aware that there are plenty of people in this world that share the same name. Also, wonder if she's aware that common human decency/social etiquette generally calls for not asking people to change their dog's, cat's, baby's names etc.
