We're geared to look for tasty things to eat and there's nothing we can do about it. Well, the one thing we can do is not eat something that's obviously a rock or bowl of poison.

In a spectacular showing of prank-ish trolling, a German awards show was temporarily paralyzed when a Ryan Gosling lookalike managed to breach security, and accept the actual Gosling's award. If only he'd been more prepared for his speech.
Outside that, the audience literally doesn't know what to do with themselves, and Colin Farrel is wearing the pained, lifeless expression of someone who ended up on a Tinder date that looks nothing like their photos.
