- Your Ponder This of the Day: how do you call dibs on bunk beds in an upside-down house?

- Your DID YOU KNOW of the Day: 3.5 million people still pay for AOL dialup. Uhhhhhhh…..
- PREACH.

- A banned episode of Tiny Toons wherein the characters drink a single beer, become hobos, steal a cop car and die.
- There are a good many things in the world to warm a nerd’s heart, though nothing hits closer to home than a slideshow of supervillains during their awkward teen years.

- And evil: the Top 10 Spelling Mistakes you’ll see on Twitter. Asswholes.
- And finally, here’s one of the greatest Internet bounties of all, a normal guy in denim shorts reenacting romance novel book covers.

‘Til next time, keep up the good work.
