21 Examples of Starbucks Employees Completely Massacring Someone’s Name
If there's one thing we love about Starbucks, it's that they always give us a place to go to the bathroom. Aside from that, it's also always a good time when they mix up a customer's name. When a Hong Kong Starbucks employee thought a woman named Virginia was actually named Vagina, we laughed.
We figured why not keep the laughs coming and found some more Starbucks name fails. We also included what the original name is supposed to be, since it's not always entirely clear. You're welcome.

Man Has More Fun on Treadmill Than You Ever Dreamed Possible
Wow. We've never had this much fun on a treadmill. Granted, we've never actually been on a treadmill because we've got really bad knees and asthma, but still ... this looks like a lot more fun than the elliptical machine too.

9 Sloths Who Are Working for the Weekend
We love sloths. There's no question. But we can't spend all day looking at them online-- sometimes we have to take a break to order food from Seamless or run a damp sponge over our body. Worse, sometimes we actually have to leave the apartment.
