Are they still talking about the Petraeus affair? Until Colbert laid it all out for me, I didn't realize how soap-opera-like it all was.
These hosts of an ESPN show purposely crammed their segment full of quotes from The Princess Bride. Very cute.
Videos you've probably seen, oh, EVERYWHERE ELSE by now: Other things that security cameras see, and Dumb Ways to Die.
