I know it's lame to suggest Buzzfeed links, but you have to learn this fact about Home Alone. Link below.
I usually get really mad at myself when a commercial has the ability to make me go, "Man. That was really nice." 'cause, well, I like to pretend I'm smarter than everyone, as we all do.
That being said - ugh, just watch this. It's nice. And obviously makes me want an iPhone. Kill me. I'm not smart.
I really wish I'd posted this last week, since from December 1st until later on today, you can see this documentary for free on their site. Here's the link.
Thankfully, the lovely Jenn suggested it to me and I just finished watching it. Verdict? Great. You really should see it. It's basically about nutrition, vitamins and, well, it's about so much more. If you can spare some time, just go watch it now. I'm going to try and find a streaming link for it as well if you're reading this after December 10th.
Overly Simple Thoughts After Seeing It
These are just small things that stuck in my head after watching it, but a lot of other parts really stayed with me as well. Such a good documentary. Definitely as good as Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead.

Have you seen this before? It came out in 1982 and I'd never even heard of it until today. And man, it's really beautiful. It's based on the 1978 children's book by Raymond Briggs. It's completely wordless (like the book), with the exception of one song. (Why is there a weird David Bowie introduction? No idea.)
If you can spare twenty-five minutes, give it a watch. I'm definitely going to play it for my nieces when I'm in Canada for the holidays.
And one last thing? Man, I miss animation like this. I really do. I can't really put into words why that is. Logically, it's probably because I associate it with my own childhood but maybe not. It just looks so much more beautiful to me than anything that's getting released for kids today.
Can't stop listening to this song.
I'm going to assume that you already watch Bob's Burgers. And if you haven't? Well, I'll speak to you privately later. Everyone should be watching this show.
Anyway, in every episode there's a different burger-of-the-day that's featured in the background of the restaurant on a chalkboard (see above photos). And I just found out that there's some magical human being out there WHO'S ACTUALLY MAKING THESE BURGERS! I love it when people do stuff like this. Ya know, fun stuff. Just such a neat idea. You can see for yourself over at The Bob's Burgers Experiment. I've included a few examples of what they've done below.
SUCH a good idea for a blog. Can't wait to see what other ones they make.
If you'd like to taste the best chocolates you'll ever eat, then please go no further than here. I've tried most every flavour and they're ridiculously good. Even the vegan ones. Such a good gift to give someone this time of year.
This was going to be a post encouraging you to follow Ike Barinholtz, but upon closer inspection - almost everyone I follow on The Mindy Project appears to be pretty great.
