Local Weather Update and Thunderstorm Playlist

There's a thunderstorm going on right now. Not where you are probably, but where I am there is definitely a thunderstorm happening. Aren't thunderstorms the best?

We also know that the anchors of the show are fake tanned, plastic-faced morons who literally know nothing about how things work. Most importantly, we can all agree that it is so depressing that "Fox & Friends" is one step above "Fox & the Hound" on Google's popular searches.

There Are Other Animals Besides Cats On The Internet?

The Lyrebird does some cool things, guys. Am I the only one who didn't know about the Lyrebird before? Is this some big conspiracy to keep me in the dark? Why don't you answer me, World Wide Web, if that even is your REAL NAME?

Seriously though, check out the Australian-native bird mimic a variety of sounds including: camera shutters, hammers, chainsaws, walkie talkies, and many more!
