Inexplicably Enjoyable Clip of the Week: While I'll never understand why "Lip Sync Battle" is a thing, I can still recognize what comedic value it has. Case in point is the video above. -- Evan Siegel
Retail News of the Week: The announcement that Abercrombie & Fitch is ditching its shirtless models and 'sexualized marketing.' Great! Now people of all shapes and sizes are free to dress like assholes. -- E.S.Most Futuristic Typewriter: This one that automatically makes ASCII art selfies, made by Russian artists ::vtol ::. It's a cool work, but personally, I don't think ASCII art can get any better than the infamous "))<>((" from Me and You and Everyone We Know. -- E.S.
App of the Week: MyIdol. Setting the Internet afire, the viral Chinese avatar app shows no signs of slowing down.

Yeah, you're welcome. -- Sandra Song
Runner-Up App of the Week: Miranda July's newly-relaunched app, "Somebody." The app, which first launched last year, lets you send messages to your friends by way of nearby strangers. Everybody should download it so I can use you as my couriers. -- E.S.

Worst Video Interview of the Week: Jeremy Renner and Chris Evans rightfully got some flack this week for calling Avengers character Black Widow a "whore" and "slut." And while Evans released an apology, Renner decided to tell Entertainment Weekly that it wasn't actually "meant to be serious in any way. Just poking fun during an exhausting and tedious press tour."
