While women remain divided on the facial hair issue, I think we can all agree on at least one thing:

A man with a beard in the shape of a snowshoe is exactly the kind of man you bring home to mama.

(P.S. In my house, "bring home to mama" is code for "run from in the street.")

Ladies, meet David Traver.

The Associated Press reports that Traver, who lives in Anchorage, won the freestyle category in the World Beard and Moustache Championships by fashioning his face mop into a snowshoe.

A snowshoe. Made of beard.

Let us pause for a moment to soak that in.

Whenever you metaphorically (or physically) faceplant into one of life's inevitable failures, people (once they are done pointing and laughing) always say things like "You can't win 'em all" or "Win some, lose some" or "Better luck next time" or "You have the right to remain silent."

Living in your parents' basement as a 28-year-old dude is embarrassing.

According to my mother, having a messy room is also embarrassing.

It's been said that artists find their inspiration from real life experiences. If that's a fact, then I should write country and western songs.

(Cue the twangy guitar and tumbleweeds.)

It happened in South Carolina. >> Continue reading: Nothing says 'fun' like a Waffle House grudge match

The best part about going out to eat is when you get a little something extra.

You know, like a little extra whipped cream on your sundae, or a little extra martini when they mix too much, or an extra friendly waiter.

But no one - and I mean no one - ever wants a little extra disembodied snake head with their broccoli.

Yum yum yum.

The Associated Press reports some dude in New York got exactly that when he went to get his nosh on at a TGI Friday's.

The unlucky diner said he was munching at a restaurant in Clifton Park when he spotted something gray mixed in with his veggi...

Ahhhh, treasured family vacation memories from your long-awaited trip to England.

You know, the pic of you and the kids in front of Big Ben, a shot of all of you piled into one of those red phone booth thingies, maybe a quick candid of the fam on a double-decker bus ... oh, and that sloppy, puke-inducing video of the drunk people getting busy in the queen's front yard.

Ummm ... yeah. So maybe that last one is a little out of the ordinary.

But according to The Associated Press, it happened to a group of vacationers in London.
