Tekashi 6ix9ine Becomes Internet’s Biggest Snitch

by

The famous rapper Tekashi 6ix9ine was arrested last year for racketeering, drug trafficking, and assisting in other crimes. Originally it was believed Tekashi would serve a life sentence in prison, but authorities have said they would reduce it to 15 years if he agreed to name members of The Bloods Gang. Some of his confessions have included big hip hop names like Jim Jones and Cardi B, which has shocked many. While his confession involves a serious matter, people on social media have found his “snitching” to be downright comical, creating a new meme from the trial photos.

Reference To Other Artists

One of the funniest contributions makes a reference to a popular reggae/r&b song from 2000 by Shaggy. In the song Shaggy repeatedly denies cheating on his girlfriend, claiming “it wasn’t me” (15 times to be exact). Seems Tekashi 6ix9ine had other ideas…

Tekashi Solves Biggest Rap Murder Cases

It also had others curious if 6ix9ine would confess about other unexplained disappearances and murders of fellow rappers, most famously Tupac. 

Confessions Part 3…

Usher’s career really skyrocketed with his release of the songs “Confessions” and “Confessions Part II,” in which he crooned the famous line “If I’m gonna tell it then I gotta tell it all,” which could be similar to Tekashi’s current decision. 

Tekashi Jumpstarts Impeachment

Others poke fun at the timing of Tekashi’s confession lining up with Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s decision to declare an official impeachment process against Trump. Could it have been Tekashi who was the whistleblower?

No Need For Witness Protection

With all of these confessions, Tekashi 6ix9ine is still looking to face 10-15 years in prison. Many are greatly worried for his safety after he is released, for the rapper has stated he does not want to be a part of the Witness Protection Program so that he can continue his rapping career. However, as some have pointed out, joining the Witness Protection Program might be a little difficult given the very recognizable tattoos he has on his face.

<blockquote class=”twitter-tweet”><p lang=”en” dir=”ltr”>I bet having 69 tattooed on your forehead and throat makes the Witness Protection Program kinda futile anyway.<br><br>“Excuse me, are you the rapper Tekashi 6ix9nine?”<br><br>“Oh, no, that’s a common mistake. I’m actually Eric Davis, an accountant from Omaha.”</p>— Tom Fornelli (@TomFornelli) <a href=”https://twitter.com/TomFornelli/status/1177343174454468608?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw”>September 26, 2019</a></blockquote> <script async src=”https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js” charset=”utf-8″></script>

As the trial continues, only time will tell who else Tekashi includes in his confessional, and if he can still have a career after jail.

No Aliens, But One Special Visitor At Area 51

by

One of the most anticipated Facebook Events of the year finally came this past weekend. “Storm Area 51” began as a joke online (“they can’t stop us all”), yet quickly became a global sensation. The event for September 20-22 had over 2 million people “attending” on the Facebook event online. In reality only a few thousand people attended “Alienstock” to get their chance at an alien sighting this past weekend, which sadly never occurred. Nevertheless, one attendee did make the weekend a memorable one by interrupting a news report with his Naruto run.

What is “Storm Area 51”?

“Storm Area 51” was created on Facebook back in June by Matty Roberts. The comedic concept was to have as many people “storm” the United States Air Force Training Facility, famous for alien sightings. This event got so much publicity, that they decided to create a music festival called “Alienstock“ in the small town of Rachel, Nevada. The logistics were not well planned however, and no one truly broke into the facility. People who did come for the event however enjoyed an out-of-this-world time! Some attendees even brought fake protest signs, dressed up in shiny and green gear, and bonded over their communal love for aliens.

How Do They Storm Area 51?

As stated previously, the event was both poorly planned and, when it comes down to it, one big fat joke. Roberts suggested that everyone enter the facility by running like “Naruto,” a famous Japanese anime character who runs with his head down and arms behind him.

While no one successfully entered, one guy dubbed “the plunger man” (whose real name is Gary Winthorpe), did manage to get the closest with some fellow attendees. They all charged toward the barricade in Naruto style, only to quickly get stopped by military.

Winthorpe told the local Fox5, “We came out here to raid Area 51 and find the truth about what they’re hiding. We don’t know if it’s aliens, we don’t know if it’s time travel, we don’t know if there’s minions in there.”

News Reporters Get’s A Naruto Backdrop

That wasn’t the last of the Naruto runs of the weekend. The most famous-and now viral- example came during a news report. During the middle of KTNV Channel 13 Las Vegas‘ coverage of the event, one attendee slyly swooped behind reporter Joe Bartel in Naruto-like fashion.

The image soon became a viral video on Twitter, with people claiming this lone runner to be the true hero of this extraterrestrial-less weekend.

The Rough Reality Of The First Day Back To School

by

The end of summer means it’s back to school for the kiddos! While parents might be relieved that classes are back in session (mommy deserves a break!), some kids have shown that elementary school is a lot harder than it looks! Parents participated in a thread on Twitter to show their kids before and after pics from back to school and let’s just say, the change is shocking (and hilarious).

A Back To School Thread Is Born

On September 4th, Kennedy decided to share a picture she saw on Facebook that demonstrated the apparent rough life of Kindergarten. We might think it’s all just coloring, playing, and the occasional nap time, but this photo comparison shows otherwise. The difference is undeniable between the little girl in the before and after photos. The sleek hair and fresh look all ready for school compared to a frazzled, hair everywhere and “mom-take-me-home-already” face are too funny to not share. Kennedy’s original tweet then got MANY responses…

Pre-K Also Has Back To School Problems

Who would’ve thought that little four year olds could do so much damage? This pre-schooler’s bubbly face of excitement for her first day of school did not last long. A rumpled shirt, messy curls and chocolate stained face show this blondie barely survived. At least she’s not crying (yet)!

Bewildered At Back To School

If you think the parents are the only ones confused by the state of their children after the first day of school, think again. This little girl’s face shows she too is just as bewildered!

Done With The Day

Don’t mess with me daddy! This previously giddy girl who is later seen dragging her backpack home demonstrates she is truly done for the day!

Teachers Also Have It Rough

These young students prove that going back to school doesn’t always meet our expectations. The same could be said for teachers, who also experience it rough the first day of school!

The Holy Trinity

While it was nearly impossible to pick the students who had the very worst back to school before and after pics, these three ultimately take the cake. Ripped tights, disheveled hair, and an entire ponytail missing?! We can only imagine what is going on in the classroom!

Dog’s Response To Getting Nails Clipped Deserves An Oscar

by

Although the Oscar Awards are months away, we have found one dramatic performance that deserves, as a bare minimum, a nomination. This past week one Pitbull owner uploaded a video of her dog’s reaction to having to get its nails clipped, and the theatrics were hysterical. Entitled “The world’s most dramatic Pitbull“ on Reddit, we can’t help but think maybe The Academy should think about creating an animal category…

A Not So Pawsitive Pampering

Just as humans need (or at least, SHOULD) trim their nails regularly, dogs need some grooming too. For most, a trip to the salon to get a manicure is an fun, relaxing affair. Yet for this pooch, when its owner asks for its paw to trim its nails, the look on the Pitbull’s face turns to complete side-eye annoyance. We didn’t know that dogs could give side-eye either, but this one sure proves they can!

Pitbull giving unamused side-eye

When it is clear that the Pitbull is not going to comply to the request, the owner reaches for the paw, and this is when the theatrics truly begin. As the dog’s eyes instantly widen, it then begins to fall…

An Oscar Worthy Faint

Yes, the dog full on faints to the ground, eyes wide the entire time. The funniest part about this Oscar performance is that the Pitbull does nothing to stop the owner from clipping its nails, simply shows its submission to the grooming task. The person recording then zooms in on the Pitbull’s face, showing the clear sign of “please get me out of this” through its eyes. It is one of those moments that as viewers, we don’t know whether to laugh or feel bad for the pooch.

Pitbull pleading to be taken out of its agony in this Oscar worthy performance.

On the bright side, even if the Pitbull does not enjoy its necessary nail clipping routine, we can rest assured the dog clearly trusts its owner. Time to give this pooch a treat!

Man Catches A Falling Phone While On A Roller Coaster

by

With the exorbitant price of cellphones today, it’s always a painful moment to know you have lost or destructively dropped it. Both are typically the case if your cell phone falls out while riding a roller coaster. However, one individual’s potential bad luck on the Shambhala Roller Coaster in Spain turned into a viral video, as another passenger was able to grab the falling phone while on the ride!

A Speedy Recovery

Samuel Kempf was the coordinated passenger who mid flip in the ride was able to reach for the flying phone. He had heard that another passenger’s phone went missing on the ride, and joked that he would be able to go for it. However, this joke turned into a reality when Kempf went from screaming fun to quick rescue. The best part? The entire moment was caught on video!

Roller Coaster Video Goes Viral

Kempf went to the Port Aventura theme park with his family as a side trip for his Fistballing World Championships. While there, they decided to ride on one of Spain’s fastest roller coasters, the Shambhala, which tops at 83mph.

During the video, you can see Kempf’s excited face instantaneously turn to a look of concern, before he reaches up for a flying object. He then proceeds to celebrate the amazing catch, and also manages to hold on to the mobile for the entire duration of the ride.

Kempf decided to share the miraculous footage to YouTube, where in 2 days time it has already reached over 1.7 million views! The New Zealander has also received many accolades on Twitter for his impressive feat. One of the most humorous was his selection for “sports highlight of the day” by Deadspin.

While Kempf is probably having fun on this mini “glory ride,” we can only imagine how thrilled the phone owner was to not have to purchase a new Iphone X!

How Did Lil Nas X Become A Viral Sensation?

by

You have most likely heard the song “Old Town Road” (or the remix) at least once this past year. That’s because this country-trap beat by Lil Nas X shattered records by becoming the first song to top the Billboard Charts for 17 consecutive weeks. The song’s catchy beat and family friendly lyrics made it loved by people of all ages around the world. The song even sparked a dance challenge and many memes on social media. Ironically enough, Lil Nas X was a college dropout living on his sister’s couch less than a year ago. How did this 20 year old become an overnight viral sensation?

Lil Nas X’s Humble Beginnings

Originally from Atlanta, Lil Nas X (whose real name is Montero Lamar Hill) spent most of his time studying memes and social media during high school. He created several accounts on Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok with the hopes of becoming a paid Influencer. When those plans didn’t pan out, Lil Nas X went on to college, only to drop out a year later to pursue music. His parents did not support his decision at first, but his rampant success proved them otherwise.

Got The Horses In The Back, $30 For A Track

Without money to professionally produce his own music, Lil Nas X turned to the app BeatStars to find some beats. He purchased the music that is the background of Old Town Road for only $30 from a Dutch teen producer named YoungKio. He then recorded his own lyrics about bringing his horses to “Old Town Road” to go with the track. In order to get some exposure for the song, the two paired up by creating various memes to share on social media, really emphasizing the “cowboy” perspective. The song truly peaked in popularity when it was shared on TikTok by Lil Nas X, inspiring the creation of “yee yee juice” and the “yeehaw challenge.”

Only The Beginning…

After the original song grew in popularity, the artist turned to Twitter to try to gain the support of Billy Ray Cyrus. After he caught the famous country singer’s attention, the two paired up to create the remix, which helped the song gain even more popularity. The duo even performed at the BET awards together. The song has since won numerous awards, including song of the year at the MTV Video Music Awards. Given his recent stardom, Lil Nas X has finally been able to jumpstart his career, with a record deal with Columbia records. We are sure to hear more hits from this young artist- can’t nobody tell him nothing!
