Watch: Training Reindeer to Deliver Pizza in Japan
Dominos in Japan is trying something a little different to deliver pizza this Christmas. They’re training reindeer to bring the pizza to the door of residents in Japan’s northernmost island, Hakkaido. Gotta think this is gonna take way longer than 30 minutes for delivery.

YouTube Guy Sings Smash Mouth’s All Star To Any Song (UPDATE!)
Meet Jon Sudano.
Perhaps you made his acquaintance a few weeks ago when he became an overnight YouTube sensation with a very simple concept: He’s decided to go ahead and sing the lyrics and melody to Smash Mouth’s All Star to….well, pretty much any song.
I first came across Jon and his sweet neck beard when he had a handful of covers. Now he has even more. A 101WKQX primer:
Red Hot Chili Peppers – Under The Bridge (Smash Mouth Version)
Bastille – Pompeii (Smash Mouth Version)
Radiohead – Creep (Smash Mouth Version)
Linkin Park – In The End (Smash Mouth Version)
Foster The People – Pumped Up Kicks (Smash Mouth Version)
I’m not sure what this means. Is the banality of Smash Mouth so great that it can camouflage itself effortlessly within other musical works in a beautiful, haunting way? Or it could it mean that the other songs…are….
NO! After contemplating all angles, I’ve arrived at only one conclusion. Smash Mouth sucks. I know this because Jon has moved on to his next exposure…Nickelback:
Coldplay – Fix You (Nickelback Photograph Version)
How To Behave At A Concert…A New Interpretation
WikiHow has provided a How To Behave At A Rock Concert guide. I thought it might be helpful considering The Nights We Stole Christmas kicks off on Thursday. Turns out…it was kind of bland. So, without further ado, the original photo illustrations from the guide…provided with zero-context interpretations:
When you walk into a place that looks like your hometown movie theater from the 1980s, recognize you did not arrive at the proper location for the show. It is at The Aragon. Also, that sweater. Yikes.
If someone offers you a fountain pen at The Nights We Stole Christmas, remember. Just say no. Friends don’t let friends accept fancy writing utensils from strangers.
(Wait. I’m genuinely confused by this. Sure, follow the rules. But when placed on a stop sign, doesn’t it send mixed messages? Read literally, it seems to mean…STOP following the rules. I’ve decided this tip does not apply The Nights We Stole Christmas.)
Don’t be the silver haired fox who boxes people out from the merch tables.
It is advisable to wear deodorant to The Nights We Stole Christmas while waving your hands in the air as if there were no consequences.
If you mistakenly drive off with a gas nozzle after filling up on your way over, don’t bring it inside and wave it in the air like some kind of trophy. And you on the left…this ain’t Pants Off, Dance Off.
Don’t use a mirror to create your own homemade band t-shirt. Actually, you’ll probably sell a s#!@ ton of these on Etsy. Go for it.

This Will Make You Feel Better!
If you had a bad long weekend due to the Thanksgiving break, you should probably watch this video below! Trust me, all your worries will go away!
VIDEO: Final trailer for ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’
The final trailer for the anticipated ‘Rogue One: A Star Wars Story’ hit the web today to give us one last savory tease of the epic spinoff/prequel coming out on December 16th. The story involves a rag tag crew put together by the Rebels to steal information of the construction of the Death Star, putting the movie chronologically before the original ‘Star Wars: A New Hope’ film. This latest trailer shows more of a light-hearted look at the team of central players as well as the droid K-2SO, wild X-Wing dog fights in outer space, and some new fun action scenes with giant robots flinching from missile strikes. The trailer does hit the member-berry feels with a scene involving a mother telling her daughter to “trust the force” which throws back to the core battle of good and evil that has resonated through the entire series.
There has been overzealous fan freak-outs over the recent reveal that ‘Rogue One’ will not have the standard scrolling text prologue that fans have been familiar with at the start of all previous SW films, but Star Wars executive producer Kathleen Kennedy told Variety “We felt that’s so indicative of what those saga films are. Initially, we probably will begin the film in a way that is traditional, with just the title.” And that makes total sense, so fear not Jedis, this movie looks like it’s going to be pretty cool.
VIDEO: CUTE ALERT! Weiner Dog Races ON ICE!
Yes this is as cute as it sounds.
BEHOLD WIENER DOGS RACING ON ICE! Kudos to the Tri-City Storm for putting on this adorable doggy event with these weiner dogs wiggling their butts as fast as possible.
If that is not enough hockey meets cute dogs action for you, here is a Crusoe the “celebrity daschund” in a hockey uniform paling around with a fellow hockey fan dog.
Fence-jumping music festivals may have become a thing of the past
Jumping over a fence to sneak into a festival is pretty dumb. It does’nt support the bands performing or help the people who worked to put on the show for everyone involved. We have heard tall tales of people sneaking into Grant Park during Lollapalooza, but ‘fence-jumping’ a fest might have gotten much harder to pull off due to new technology being implemented by an Australian music festival.
The Event Agency, promoters behind the upcoming Arcadia Australia festival are using a special non-drying lubricant ink to fencing for the the concert which will make it harder to climb in without a ticket. The same ink will stain the clothing of fence-jumpers for up to three weeks, which makes it easy to identify them. The promoters said in an article with iq-mag.net they want to make “an impenetrable barrier”,
So I guess these concert-going criminals will have to get crafty with a second set of clothing? No matter what you think, this new ink idea is quite clever and sounds effective.
