Remember late last year when Spider-Man dropped that Good Morning America correspondent on her head? How about the time the news anchor wondered who this 4chan guy was? Here's 15 minutes of the year's best news bloopers to help ease us laughing into the new year.
Needless to say, some of these are going to be pretty gross. That, and deep into Smash lore.
Cosplay is great. It can be well done, it can be poorly done, it doesn't matter, so long as it brings joy to both the cosplayer and the viewer. Just take a look at this "coser's" amazing cosplay!

Okay, look. As much as I love Smash, even I can admit the entire premise of the game is ridiculous. Nevermind all the tensions about how one should "actually" play such a silly (but amazing) game.
Who knew Parisian adventures of sneaky assassinations could be improved with a few choice bugs and hiccups?
X-Men: Days of Future Past is basically Terminator 2 with mutants. Screen Junkies explains the plot similarities: "An indestructible bad ass gets sent back into time without his clothes to protect a vulnerable young man with long hair who will one day become a leader and stop a shape shifter from destroying the…

If that ridiculous song of Jeff Goldblum's unique laugh from earlier this year wasn't enough, now it's time to train our voice or take out those ukuleles, because someone made the ridiculous laugh's sheet music transcription.
Destiny's D-pad-mapped gestures are fun for expressing yourself to strangers in the Tower, or after a successful strike. But they're a lot more useful when used in even more creative ways.
It's always fun to realize that all your favorite childhood characters are completely disgusting creatures. Like Sonic the Hedgehog, who in real life can run really, really fast but would also create foam poop with its mouth to rub it on itself for no reason at all. In fact, hedgehogs love all kinds of poop.
"From Notch, Sweden's biggest one-hit wonder since Peter Bjorn and John comes a game like no other — unless you count LEGOs, Lincoln Logs, Mega Bloks, K'nex, Erector sets or playing outside."

From the survival horror streets of Chicago to massively multiplayer Los Angeles, Dorkly has taken a handful of U.S. cities and described them — with uncanny accuracy — in terms of video game genres.
Different game, different developer, same glitch. It just wouldn't be a Battlefield game without stretchy neck man.

Back in the '80s, hardcore gamers loved the sort of simplistic fare that mobile gamers thrive on today. So why can't the hardcore embrace popular mobile games? I'm guessing it's the lack of almost completely unrelated painted cover art.

Those lines from Fallout that gave us goose bumps back then sure sound different with comedian Gilbert Gottfried's voice. That's right, the voice of Iago, the annoying parrot from Aladdin, takes on famous video game lines from Super Mario 64, Final Fantasy VII and a lot more in this Game Informer video.
NBA2k14, or any sports game for that matter, can produce some pretty amazing glitches, which tends to be more funny than irritating as long as they don't break the game. Here's NBA enthusiast Jesser and his friends, performing a lot of these—well, those that don't require warped body parts, on a basketball court.

Note: Don't do this at home. I still can't decide if it's the most idiotic or the funniest thing I've seen recently. A Japanese kid attaches a toothbrush to the slide of an airsoft gun and when he fires, the brush moves back and forth. Just like an electric toothbrush. Except faster.

Really3D's minimalistic, silly recreation of the iconic Game of Thrones opening might be a joke, but looking at the precisely scaled models, you must admit it probably still took him a lot of time to do this.
