Please stop believin' the sequel
Sting hosted a charity concert last night in New York for rainforests or something. We don't know what else happened but there is now documentary (albeit poor quality) evidence that Lady Gaga, Sting, Elton John, Bruce Springsteen, Shirley Bassey, Debbie Harry and a partridge in a pear tree sang Don't Stop Believin' together.

The studio that made Downfall, the movie from which the Hitler subtitle meme videos all derive, recently started submitting copyright claims on these videos and having Youtube pull them down. Someone had the brilliant idea to make a Hitler video out of it, and did it brilliantly. The part about "realizing the irony" made us laugh out loud:

Joakim Noah: Saying what everyone else is thinking.
Backstory: Joakim Noah of the Chicago Bulls previously said that there was nothing to do in Cleveland. The Cleveland fans booed Noah mercilessly when the Bulls came to Cleveland for the playoffs and Noah responded with a big game in Game 2. Then Noah doubled down in the post-game press conference:
