Most DGAF President: Okay, so this is image is definitely edited from an actual photo posted by the White House. But given all of the crazy fun stuff President Obama has been up to in the past few months, you sort of kind of actually started to believe maybe he did this mess with the internet, didn't you? Just let yourself laugh. -- Eric Thurm

Most Sorely Missed Internet Relic: RIP Time Cube, one of the strangest, most beautiful parts of the internet for many, many years. If you've never heard of the weird philosophy of the Time Cube, check out this primer at The Verge, and cry for what you have lost. -- E.T.

Most Terrifying Photo Capturing Otherwise Inhuman Monsters Evincing Possibly Relatable Characteristics and Tastes: Self-explanatory. Yikes. -- E.T.

Screen Shot 2015-09-04 at 4.03.16 PM.pngAngel That Was Sent From Heaven Above of the Week:
Kevin Spacey's older brother, Randy, who happens to be a Rod Stewart-impersonating limo driver in Boise. What a guy! -- Abby Schreiber

Best/Worst First Impression: Turns out a 23-year-old job applicant accidentally sexted a couple n00dz to the company's HR Manager, who promptly reported him to police and, uh, rescinded his job offer, because duh. -- Sandra Song

Bone-Headed Old People Comment of the Week:Chrissie Hynde's remarks about rape, followed by a distant second-place finish from Keith Richards who called rap fans "tone-deaf."-- A.S.

Douchiest Piece of Clothing Ever Invented: As if the world wasn't a terrible enough place, apparently there's now a tiny fedora for just your man-bun. May God help us all. -- S.S.

sadellesplatter.pngNYC Food News of the Week:
Sadelle's, the Jewish deli/appetizing shop/bistro from Major Food Group -- aka the team behind Manhattan favorites Carbone, Santina, Parm, Dirty French and ZZ's Clam Bar (RIP Torrisi) -- opened the appetizing section of the place earlier this week where they're dishing out insane-looking bagels, spreads and bakery treats. But what's really making our mouths water is the soon-to-be-available smoked fish tower. I mean, c'mon! -- A.S. [pic via Grub Street]

It's jants season, baby! -- Elizabeth Thompson

Worst Festival Horror Story: Apparently a woman at a British "fish festival" thought she had teleported across the festival harbor when her toilet was accidentally forklifted across the grounds...with her still in it. And horrifyingly enough, apparently this isn't an uncommon occurrence. -- S.S.
Best TV Mashup: Most TV mashup things on the internet are, um, not particularly artful -- relying on the instant gratification of "hey, look at these two things I like together" to draw in eyeballs. But these drawings of Game of Thrones characters in the style of Bob's Burgers are really adorable, and spot on. Check them out if you like both shows. -- E.T.

Screen Shot 2015-09-04 at 4.18.43 PM.pngMost ~Unique~ Fashion Trend of the Week:
The plastic bag trend taking Taiwan by storm whereby girls (and a few dudes) turn the sacs into mini-dresses and other garments. You do you, Taiwan. -- A.S.
