Culture Buzz Dogs are therapeutic for both the old and young alike. Here's a testament that you're never too old to enjoy the companionship of one of our favorite furry buddies (get ready to grab some tissues).

Culture Buzz Chances are if you have an internet connection you've probably used it to commit some kind of copyright infringement. And chances are also pretty good your first download was probably pretty embarrassing. So own up, what was the first thing you ever illegally downloaded? Bonus points for who used the oldest p2p network.
Food Buzz It's pretty crazy to see how graphic design shifts ever so slightly throughout the years. From typography to the actual iconic images on our favorite cereals, there seems to be a pattern in advertising where they get bigger and bolder over time. All I know is cereal mascots will forever be engrained in my sugary sweet memory. (via theimaginaryworld.com)
Tech Buzz So everyone knows the internet regurgitates cultural garbage over and over again until it becomes gibberish. And it’s been doing that for a really long time. So dig through your Livejournals and YTMND accounts and let us know what the oldest meme you can remember is.

Culture Buzz To commemorate the 70th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, here are some stunning images of the event that brought the United States into World War II. And allow us to use the occasion to thank our veterans for their service and sacrifice.
Sports Buzz Cripple fight! No, but seriously, retired Canadian Football septuagenarians Joe Kapp and Angelo Mosca got into a scuffle at an otherwise pleasant alumni meetup on Friday. Perhaps things turned sour when Mosca suggested that Kapp “stick it up [his] ass?” (via gawker.com)
Culture Buzz These socks, which are dated back to 300-499 A.D., were excavated in Egypt and said to have a divided toe so they could be worn with sandals. I guess Phish concert-goers had the right idea all along.
Culture Buzz Jerry Sandusky, the former assistant football coach charged with 40 counts of child sex abuse, breaks his silence on the Penn State scandal with Bob Costas. And he unsurprisingly denies all the charges. “Horsing around” and “horseplay” are terms that are now forever tainted.
Culture Buzz On the heels of the revelation that the judge who freed Jerry Sandusky on bail was a donor to Sandusky's Second Mile charity, and the incredulous questions as to why she did not recuse herself, here are some more unanswered questions surrounding this awful scandal. Not to get into the realm of conspiracy theory, but there are some very disturbing “coincidences” surrounding this case.
Culture Buzz Jerry Sandusky in a 1987 NBC interview: “I enjoy being around children…I just have a good time with them.” “Everybody needs people to care for them, even if sometimes they don't want it.” *shudder*
If you've ever asked yourself whether or not comedian Zach Galifianakis has always been hilarious, the answer is yes. Yes he has. If you've ever wondered if he's always had a beard, the answer is yes to that, too. (via youtube.com)
You go old guy! Spotted at Midsommarfest, Chicago, IL 6/12/11.
Culture Buzz Beautiful old photos of children in Soviet-era Moscow. These kids knew how to rock the babushka. More over at English Russia.
What former Senator Alan Simpson didn't realize when he talked about “Snoopy Snoopy Poop Dog” is that he actually exists! Well, he does now, thanks to the people at ParodyRapper.com! I'm digging the song “That's Scat.” (Pun intended.)
Alan Simpson, former Wyoming senator and co-chair of The Deficit Reduction Commission, is concerned that our nation's grandchildren are listening to the Enema Man and Snoopy Snoopy Poop Dog. The kids these days with their hippin' and their hoppin' and their snoopin' and their poopin'.
A 4-year-old daughter of anarchy rocks some shades and hauls ass on a motorcycle in India. What adorable endangerment!
America's Cutest Golden Girl used to be America's Cutest Pin-Up Girl. And she was apparently prolific. There are even more photos over at Jezebel.
Culture Buzz Title says it all! Haha, just kidding. What the title doesn't tell you is that this adorable cat will Maru you in new ways. It also won't inform you that while I found this on Cute Overload, it also popped up on Yahoo France's version of Jack's Most Important Cats list.
Culture Buzz Old timey photos of Santa Claus that you'll either find cockle-warming or ho ho horrifying. Mostly horrifying.
Middle-aged Turkish gentlemen displaying fancy footwork and loaded firearms. I hear these guys are opening up for Backstreet Boys and New Kids.
Some people go as far as painting their dogs to look like pandas, but not this pooch, he is the real deal.
This guy has to be the world's most enthusiastic DJ. I wish I knew his identity so I could book him for all of my future engagements.
