Culture Buzz It's basically a mobile home for people who listen to NPR and belong to the co-op. The Swedish retail giant teamed up with Oregon-based design firm Ideabox to sell this prefab house, known in IKEAese as Activ, for $86,500. No, you don't have to assemble it yourself, but imagine the wordless instructions and infuriatingly vague cartoons that would come with an entire house.
Culture Buzz Despite the slightly absurd business model, these photos are very beautiful and moving. Here are images from the funeral of Robert Sanders, held at California's only drive-through funeral home.
Culture Buzz The devastation is pretty obvious. And by obvious, I mean adorable.
Culture Buzz YouTuber mtmuzic gives an account of the OMG moment. “Mommy was not feeling well and had to stay in the bathroom longer than usual during which my two boys, ages 1 and 3, took my new bag of flour out of the cupboard and destroyed my house. This is from ONE 5lb bag. Don't believe me? Hand a full bag to a 3-year-old and see what happens.”

The father/daughter duo that makes people cry from cuteness.
After seeing the video of 6-year-old Alexa covering “Home” with her dad, Ellen brought them on the show so they could perform their song for a national audience. Adorable ensues.
A 911 call in which a 4-year-old Florida boy wants Santa to punish his father with basement boulders. The police did a follow up and there was nothing amiss at the boy's home, aside from the really weird stories his parents were telling him about Santa's geology-based superpowers.
This is so cute that it almost physically hurts. Excuse me, need to go call my parents/sob emotionally.
Yet another video starring a lonely robot looking for companionship. What sets it apart is this lonely robot is a party robot.
