There's no better way to get ready for Avengers: Endgame than to read a spec script imagining the Marvel movies' most formidable, purple-skinned mad Titan as the host of SNL. This is a work of pure comedy gold. Shoutout to @dominicknero for sharing his vision with the online world. We're happy to see it's already taken off and gone viral.
This one's for the dinosaur kids. This Tumblr thread goes into the gritty details of the lengths artists and scientists went to to make the amazingly realistic effects in Jurassic Park. Turns out the film leaves an incredibly interesting legacy. Pretty cool rigs, man.

Ryan Smith did not expect to catch this pass. He didn't even know the ball was in the air. It just kind of clicks in perfectly. It even takes a second for the announcers to realize he had no idea what was going on. Gotta love some unintentional serendipity.
We're grateful for people who take their camera out at the site of a precariously balanced cake. These are photos taken at the perfect time of fail, coincidence, or peak artistic integrity. For more serendipity, check out these 23 lucky (and unlucky) photos taken at exactly the right time.
Yeah, we googled em. Pretty legit. We're as surprised as you. It kind of makes sense, if you consider how long people have been around, and all the things we've done, that someone would've thought to enlist a bear in the military or that multiple people would have died in a literal whiskey flood. History is crazy.
Maybe you're the best Smash Bros or Ping Pong player among your friends. Nothing will prepare you for seeing someone who's actually really good at it. Sure, stay humble and learn from your failures, but here are some things to not get too cocky about before seeing someone who can really do it.

This right here. This is the kind of stuff that we like to see. Yes. Bravo. Thank you internet gods for bestowing something so wonderfully brilliant and idiotic at the same time. Yes. The drum solo you least expect. Phenomenal.
Arsenal forward, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyan's goal celebration is making a splash on social media right now. And it is no wonder. Aubameyang donned the Black Panther mask and let loose a "Wakanda Forever" after his goal. Pretty amazing way to celebrate a lead of 3-0 over opposing team Rennes.
Science writer Jacob Margolis chronicled the end for the proud little rover. The last thing they heard from the rover was "My battery is low and it's getting dark." That is some Hollywood level drama, man. Well, it did a great job anyway, and lasted for waaaaaaay longer than we expected. Good rover.
Just because something is statistically improbable doesn't mean there's no way of it happening. When you consider how many people there are living their own individual lives, the possibility of something improbable happening between them, at least once, becomes a near certainty. Chance is a real mofo. And in case you wanted to see how unlucky people can get, here are some more stories.
If you need everyone to know just how thoughtful and knowledgeable you are, don't worry. We've got your back. The next time you're with a group of people, you can sling some of these facts their way and feel smart. It's OK, we all want to do it. And what better way to sound smart than to fire a few facts into a boring conversation!
