Apparently, Starbucks Is Testing A Beer Flavored Latte

by 17 mins ago

Starbucks has been busily inundating the world with a host of new flavors, syrups and ideas, and their latest addition is no different. Dubbed the Dark Barrel Latte, the latest coffee the Bucks is testing will channel the same flavors as a stout, dark beer.

The most similar flavor palette is the Irish staple Guinness, of course, although there will be no alcohol in the drink. A Reddit user shared a picture that contained a host of information about the forthcoming flavor:

And we practically started drooling on sight!

Topped with whipped cream and dark caramel sauce hmmm? Toasty malt, chocolatey goodness and the much-needed caffeine bump? While there’s no official confirmation on whether or not this flavor will get beyond testing, it definitely has our vote! It’s available in select markets, so you just might get the chance to try it.

What do you think? Will beer-flavored-coffee going to be the next new trend? Let us know in the comments.

This Vintage Ad Perfectly Spoofs The U2 And Apple Collaboration

by 52 mins ago

A Photoshop wiz has blessed us with a retro take on U2 and Apple’s latest collaboration.

The British rock band teamed teamed up with Apple for the biggest album release ever for their latest album Songs Of Innocence, but the stunt backfired a bit when everyone freaked out that the album was pre-installed in their iTunes.

To poke fun at the situation, someone created a parody ad that offers one of the band’s older, classic albums War on cassette as a free gift with the purchase of an Alba cassette player:

Not a bad idea actually, but definitely fake.

A Man Waited In Line For An iPhone 6 For 44 Hours To Win Back His Wife

by 24 mins ago

One British man waited in line for almost two days to get an iPhone 6, but his motives were different than most people.

While avid Apple consumers were eager to wait to get the phone itself, Darius Wlodarski was doing it to prove a point. His wife of twenty years Joanna recently left him, and he waited for the new phone in an effort to prove himself and win her back.

“Since we split up, I have realized that I was not a very good father or husband,” Wlodarski told The Bristol Post. “I did so many things wrong, so I want to say sorry to my wife and daughter.”

The 41-year-old is currently unemployed on account of health issues, so he paid for the phone with his credit card after waiting in line for a total of 44 hours.

Though unsure if the phone will bring them back together, Darius wanted to at least make the gesture.

“I bought her an iPhone 5 two years ago and she was delighted,” he said. “She told me she would like an iPhone 6 because it had a bigger screen but realized we could not afford it but still, I want to buy it for her.”

Better late than never, right?

I am very happy to get something she will like but for me, it is a sad day,” he concluded. “I hope I can convince her I could be a good father ...

This Box Of Doughnuts Is So Big You Could Sleep In It

by 8 mins ago

What would you do with a box of 2,400 donuts?? More like, what wouldn’t you do though right? Well, Krispy Kreme UK decided that putting together the biggest possible take on a dozen doughnuts they could muster would be a great marketing scheme. And you know what? They were right.

The doughnut company wanted to spotlight their new program called Krispy Kreme Occasions, which provides sweet, sticky treats fit for large gatherings.

So they created the Double Hundred Dozen, a box of doughnuts so big that you could eat all you wanted, sleep inside the box, and then wake up and eat some more for a good week or so.

Krispy Kreme

This thing is bigger than an actual bed.

Then, they held a contest on Twitter to give away the ginormous box of deliciousness. The company that won, 360 Resourcing Solutions, celebrated in the most appropriate way ever: tweeting a picture of Homer Simpson salivating.

So the circle of doughnut-making, doughnut-giving and doughnut-appreciation is complete. Another feature of the Krispy Kreme Occasion menu? Donut Towers.

Seriously. I’m salivating again.

Ed Sheeran And Macklemore Performed ‘Same Love’ Together At The iHeartRadio Festival

by 14 mins ago

Last night during the second night of the iHeartRadio festival in Vegas, the stream of surprise guests continued.

Ed Sheeran brought out Macklemore to perform his gay rights anthem “Same Love” and the crowd loved the surprise.

Sheeran only had a five song set, so dedicating a big portion of that to bring out Macklemore for that particular song last night in Vegas it felt like a moment.

Macklemore handled the verses with his passionate, stutter-step rapping while Ed strummed along on acoustic guitar and joined in for the song’s poignant chorus that’s sung by Mary Lambert on the studio version.

The combination is spell-binding, moving tribute to one of our nation’s most important social justice issues of the moment. Watch the fan-shot video below and prepare to be moved.

The New Miley Cyrus Instagram Meme Is A Work Of Art

by 2 mins ago

Miley Cyrus is a prolific user of Instagram, a wizard at Photoshop and never afraid to poke fun at herself, which is a winning combination when it comes to meme-making.

Because Miley is a meme-machine, and the imagery from her latest album and Bangez tour are more than ripe for a little good-natured ribbing.

The other day, she posted a hilarious throwback picture of herself googley-eyed as a child:

But now, she and her army of fans have transformed it by photoshopping that head on to a bunch of her current day pics.

The results are just as weird, outrageous and hilarious as the rest of Miley’s persona. Coming on the heels of her debut art show, the visuals seem even more fitting. Enjoy!

That wild VMAs performance we’ll never forget.. plus baby Miley.

Baby Miley turning up onstage.

Weird art school project Miley.

Somehow even the heart-wrenching “Wrecking Ball” becomes funny with this lil face in the mix.

Hannah-Montana-Anaconda throwback Miley… I’m losing track of the memes here.

She’s just bein Miley!

Yes, James Franco And Seth Rogen Got Naked For Jimmy Fallon’s Birthday

by 41 mins ago

When Jimmy Fallon turns 40, it’s a big deal. Sure, even the average joe thinks the big four-oh is worth commemorating, but Fallon has been working in the entertainment industry for years now, so obviously his peers were going to stand up and take notice of his milestone birthday.

So yesterday (September 19), his co-workers told him it’d be a special guest that Fallon would then interview.

“I am going to interview him or her,” he said, before a call from offstage ominously added “Or it!” Fallon’s quizzical response to this was priceless.

So when a three tier baby blue layer cake emerged from behind the curtain, the “it” comment seemed to be explained. But of course, a topless Seth Rogen jumped out… followed by James Franco, also topless, and swinging hand cuffs around his head.

I’ll let you watch the rest of the joyful birthday celebration unfold—because there’s another layer to it—but it was one fitting of the humor and laughter that Fallon has brought to countless people in his life.

Stolen Nude Photos Surface Of Kim Kardashian, Vanessa Hudgens And More

by 9 mins ago

Following the massive leak of nude photos of celebrities earlier this month, another set of stolen nude images have cropped up.

Uproxx reports that the photos were leaked via 4chan in the same way as before, but this time the site has been vigilant in removing the photos immediately.

Nude pictures of Kim Kardashian, Vanessa Hudgens and U.S. soccer player Hope Solo were leaked among others. Since the photos have been removed in accordance with 4chan’s new copyright infringement policy, it is unclear everyone who might have been affected.

Aubrey Plaza, Hayden Panettiere, Leelee Sobieski and Lake Bell all appear to be involved as well. So far, the leaks haven’t been confirmed and a representative for Kim Kardashian denied comment.

The FBI are still investigation the previous leak and will undoubtedly address this one as well. It’s another gross display of privacy violation and slut-shaming.

Taylor Swift Shook Everyone Off

No new music from our resident wallflower-turned-prom-queen but this spirited performance of “Shake It Off” felt just as much like a kiss-off to her haters than ever, and it did not disappoint.
