Last night, we upgraded to the latest version of WordPress because the future waits for no blog. The march of progress can’t be stopped! (But it can be downloaded and rebooted or whatever.) Anyway, this has resulted in some mild, unforeseen issues. For example, we cannot post videos at the moment. WHOOOOPS. Also, some people have pointed out that they are seeing the WordPress Dashboard when they try to log into their commenter accounts. EEK! In any case, we should hopefully have all of this worked out shortly. You will know that the site is back to normal when all of the phones in the world ring/vibrate in unison.

  1. Speaking of ringing/vibrating, I found out today that May is apparently National Masturbation Awareness Month. “FYI, EVERYONE MASTURBATES! JUST WANTED TO LET YOU KNOW!” – May. Huh?

  2. Aww…. but I wanted to write funny things about the guy jumping out of that Jeep.


  3. This is the perfect metaphor for how I feel right now

  4. Mild Technical Difficulties? Lame. I prefer Hot (or sometimes even Extra Hot) Technical Difficulties.

  5. WHAT OF GIFS, GABE. WHAT OF GIFS?!

  6. Ok, we’re good…

  7. first this…then on saturday:

    • Oh man, is this a thing? It’s a thing. I saw one of these billboards driving back across the country and thought it was a random one-shot thing.

    • I saw my dad last week and he brought this up 4 times, wanting to know what I thought of it. I think he half-suspects it is real, or that something will happen; he figures on “a worldwide earthquake.” The 4th time, I told him my CCD teacher once said it’s a sin to think Judgment Day is going to happen during our lifetime, the sin of vanity, because why should we be so special? He became quiet. “That’s an interesting take,” he said.

      Today, driving to work, I saw the Army Surplus store had a big, brand-new, bright red sign out front advertising EARTHQUAKE READINESS KITS.

      (Full disclosure: I am mildly relieved I will be spending most of Saturday in a short building.)

    • The world isn’t gonna end, because this guy will save it (and he still has two more episodes left for spring):

  8. Stillphotogum

  9. Kelly starts… Website has problems… Coincidence? Conspiracy? Kellspiracy?

  10. Guess I’ll just amuse myself until things get back to normal

  11. Oh, it’s got this weird frame thing going on too. I forget words. It follows me.

  12. Dammit- this means I actually have to get some work done until this is fixed.

  13. Would this be a good time to share some Kelly Conaboy stories or is the wrong thread for that?

  14. FEEL UNEASY & WILD(ER).

  15. Whenever I try to go to Videogum’s main page it just brings me back here!


    What is HAPPENING?!?!

  16. It’s been a while since we’ve done a cute animal comment thread. What you guys say? Who’s coming with me?!

  17. Way to blog, No-blog.

  18. What are ya gonna do?

  19. If you’ve already commented on a thread, you can get into it through your profile page. For those who really need it!

  20. CHSCHYYYYEAH—videogum’s down, gabe says “sorry”:

  21. also somehow I was briefly logged in as “Pauli Lioplis.” I don’t even know who I am anymore!

  22. Stereogum still works great, though! If you have something bitter and hateful to say about Bon Iver or Odd Future, you’ll find lots of good company in the most commented threads!

    • Stereogum – where humor and sarcasm go to die, and King Self-Righteousness rules with an Iron & Wine Fist.

  23. Technical difficulties … This Little Lawnmower Dared To Dream , A Majestic Flying..

  24. I’m having horrible times with my personal site as well. Boogers.

  25. Have we had a rapture post yet, because I want to add this to the galleries…

  26. I think we should observe a moment of silence in honor of the passing of Macho Man Randy Savage. The angels are all shouting “Oooh Yeah!” tonight.
