It's no Mylo the rapping cat (let's be frank, no animal can realistically expect to be), but you've got to see this chicken show off a surprising skill below.

Time for some farm fun facts here at THG. Who knew that chickens do not move their heads even as the rest of their body goes all over the place?

Apparently this guy, who demonstrates it:

This baby sure does enjoy some watermelon.

Parents at home might want to take note of the way he goes to town on this one. It's like the world's first edible high-chair! Talk about a two-for-one.

Seriously, whoever did this to their child is:

  • Not a terrific parent after placing their offspring inside a melon.
  • Worthy of praise for the entertainment they've given us. Nice!

In January, Newsweek ranked Grand Rapids, Michigan at number-10 on its list of "dying" American cities.

Did the city respond by crying over the snub? Pointing out the irony of a publication with a massive loss in readership over the last year posting any death watch that did not include itself on the list?

No. Instead, local citizens and celebrities gathered this week to set a world record for lip dubbing, as hundreds took to the streets and showed off the pride in their community via an impressively-executed rendition of Don McClean's "American Pie."

Incredibly, this was all shot in one take...

As the video has gone viral, Newsweek has actually responded to the motivation behind it and released a statement that reads:

First off, we LOVE your YouTube LipDub. We're big fans, and are inspired by your love of the city you call home.

But so you know what was up with the list you're responding to, we want you to know it was done by a website called mainstreet.com--not by Newsweek (it was unfortunately picked up on the Newsweek web site as part of a content sharing deal)--and it uses a methodology that our current editorial team doesn't endorse and wouldn't have employed. It certainly doesn't reflect our view of Grand Rapids.

GR, 1. Newsweek, 0! Go celebrate tonight with a drink at the Amway, residents.

There's really no other way to say this: Whoopi Goldberg let one rip on The View this week.

Asked by guest Dr. Oz if there was a history of farting on the show, the host wasn't shy about her take on this habit: "There is more room out than in!" Whoopi exclaimed, as Barbara Walters looked on, mortified.

Goldberg then appeared to demonstrate her penchant for passing gas right there on the spot; once again, to the horror of Walters...

An Atlanta man's marriage proposal just shamed all others that have come before or since. Thanks a lot, Matt ... but at the same time, nice work dude.

With the aid of a wedding photographer/videographer, he crafted an elaborate movie trailer that provided the lead-in to a surprising, public proposal.

He created a ruse where his brother brought his girlfriend to the movies while he “worked,” then got the theater to play it somehow, setting the stage.

After a real preview for The Hangover 2, on came a trailer for another film ... in which Matt asks Ginny's father for her hand. Then comes the live part!

You gotta see it. The “live reaction” cam was a particularly nice touch ...

People of Walmart is an awesome site.

So awesome it really had to be set to music! The aptly-titled “People of Walmart” by Jessica Frech pays tribute to the website and the big box retailer.

The video uses images provided by People of Walmart (dot) com, which launched in 2009 and caught on fast. It's a blog about ... well, it's obvious.

With U.S. sales down, its foray into high-end goods kind of a bust and the chain becoming the poster child for greed, community destruction and corporate malfeasance, Walmart has seen better days.

Let the PR nightmare continue below!

It's been a tough week or so for Harold Camping. The California preacher predicted, and warned of, with great fanfare, the end of the world May 21. FAIL.

Obviously, no cataclysmic event took place (although a jockey named Jesus did ride Shackleford to victory in the Preakness). So what's the deal, Harry?

Camping's reaction to this has been closely watched, and he apologized Monday for not having the dates "worked out as accurately as I could have."

BUT, he says, he was only partially wrong. Why?

Chatting with a friend over what he acknowledged was a rough weekend, it dawned on him that instead of the biblical Rapture in which the faithful would be swept up to the heavens, May 21 had instead been a "spiritual" Judgment Day.

May 21 was simply when everyone was judged by God, he said.

The world will be completely destroyed October 21 when the REAL apocalypse comes, he says. So consider yourself warned. Luckily, since God's judgment went down last Saturday, we're all screwed anyway, so he'll be quiet now.

Sigh. What do you think? Is 10/21/11 doomsday?

Yung Funk, a pre-teen boy who has apparently decided to embark on a rap career, is hitting back at all the haters in his hometown of Naples, Florida.

Growing up in "The 239" like this youngan, the song and video below hit close to home for Comedy Central's Daniel Tosh. Hey, it's better than Alabama.

Anyway, we'll try to stay positive here, because if there's one thing that's clear after listening to Yung Funk do his thing, it's that he hates getting hated on.

Seriously, he hates those dirty haters ...
