What happens next is both predictable and utterly insane. When I mean insane, I mean, IN- SAAAANE. Thanks to Craig Saucier for answering a question NO ONE ever asked: What happens when you shoot a gasoline-soaked parachute with a flare gun?
Craig submitted his video for a GoPro Award. Don’t try this one at home. AWESOME and CRAAAAAAZY!

If you have never seen the movie …HOW DARE YOU ! There’s a famous scene in “National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation” where Clark Griswold is putting up Christmas decorations, he slips on some ice on the roof, and winds up hanging from the gutter.
The Heerlein family in Austin, Texas decided to recreate that scene for their Christmas decorations this year. And you can probably see where this is going. Fast forward a day or two … a neighbor see the dummy and calls 911!
He also tried to save the dummy and yelled for help. Fortunately, everything got smoothed over quickly once the cops got there . . . and the Heerleins even gave the guy a gift card. Really? … I would have given the guy a “YOU’RE AN IDIOT” card.

‘Saturday Night Live’ comedian Pete Davidson had a very public breakup with a popular singer who has fans that some how think being a fan means you get to self-riotously harass someone online with some fictional authority. This is a growing issue as we go into the murky deeper digital waters of social media merging with fandom for music and art we are passionate for. The negative side of ‘stan culture’ has got to stop there is no reasonable moral defense of this, considering no one is deserving knowing why two famous people stopped dating. The faceless ‘fan accounts’ with avatar of the artist they support out spreading this emotional venom has been tolerated too long.
Maybe it’s corny to say this, but I ‘stan’ for stopping negative things like this.
Davidson is dealing with this in a very classy and considerate way for people who have dealt with similar mental health challenges. Those same health problems are something we in the alternative music have seen expressed in song and endured by those that both make the music and those that enjoy it. So it’s important to listen to this with empathy and support.
He even joked about the breakup in very grand fashion.
Pete Davidson has made millions laugh on SNL, Here are some of his funniest performances on SNL.
The 1975 released their new album on Friday call A Brief Inquiry Into Online Relationships. Early reviews have been positive with comparisons to Radiohead’s OK Computer for the millennial generation! Wow!
