At the Republican National Convention, Ted Crus was met with a wave of boos after he refused to endorse his arch nemesis Donald Trump. To our delight, the speech got its own glorious bad lip reading. "The guy's a creep" pretty much sums it all up.
Director Danny Boyle brings the lads back together for the sequel to 1996's heroin epic Trainspotting. Surprisingly, all four original cast members seemed to have survived the intervening 20 years, and will reprise their characters in T2. This could actually be a sequel that doesn't suck.
Brooks takes a utility-first approach to training apparel with the Dash 6" 2-in-1 Short, a lightweight hybrid built for runs, gym sessions, and everything in between. Designed with a semi-fitted silhouette that follows the body without restricting movement, it pairs a breathable woven 6-inch outer shell with a supportive 4-inch boxer-brief liner engineered to reduce chafing and move freely thanks to 4-way stretch. Perforated side panels and a flat-knit waistband with internal drawcord keep airflow and fit dialed in, while a thoughtful pocket system adds everyday practicality with a liner phone pocket, key storage, and two external hand pockets for off-the-clock wear. The result is a versatile training short that transitions easily from workout to daily routine without missing a step.

Vita Coco has become the warm-weather essential for a generation constantly on the move, delivering a cleaner, more functional answer to hydration during another brutal summer of record-breaking heat. Packed with naturally occurring electrolytes — including 3.5x more than the leading sports drink — the brand's coconut water helps replenish what long commutes, beach days, workouts, and heat waves quickly drain away, without the artificial colors or overly sweet formulas crowding store shelves. Equal parts refreshing and performance-minded, Vita Coco bridges wellness and lifestyle with an easy-drinking formula that feels just as at home in a gym bag as it does beside a rooftop pool, making it one of the smartest ways to stay cool when temperatures refuse to cooperate.

South Park — the only show that might give The Simpsons a run for longevity — is about to begin its 20th season. The show takes a look back at where they've been, and there is hardly a stone they've left unturned.
You can't stay up all night fighting crime forever — eventually you have to grow up and be an adult. Alfred has an intervention with the Dark Knight about the kid he forgot he adopted, who becomes you-know-who.
Although Game of Thrones comes off as a rather serious series full of violence, power, and death, the Seven Kingdoms also has a lighter side. In this blooper reel from season six, you'll see Peter Dinklage struggle with "benevolent", The Hound struggle with an axe, and Emilia Clarke struggle with Dothraki. We still give her props for even attempting to speak a totally made up language.
