There's nothing like a baby getting hurt to give you the giggles, amiright? Wait, did I just say that? What I meant was, as long as the baby doesn't REALLY get hurt, but just looks like he got hurt a little bit, and -- aw, crap. I don't know how to explain myself here. There is simply nothing funny about a baby getting shoved in the mouth by a buttload of mail and falling down and bursting into tears. EXCEPT. When it's hysterical. Yes, okay, so I'm going to hell.

Sometimes it's quite easy to dismiss the world of professional sports as nothing but psychotic, aggressive, delusional fans cheering on spoiled, multimillionaire athletes who lack any kind of class or moral compass -- but you have to admit, at the same time, sports can unite and inspire us unlike anything else. Just take a look at what happened during the National Anthem at the Boston Bruins vs. Buffalo Sabers game last night, the first professional sports event Boston hosted since the devastating and tragic Boston Marathon bombings.

Blue and yellow ribbons were projected onto the ice at TD Garden before the game while Rene Rancourt appeared and began singing the National Anthem. Fans in attendance started singing along, and eventually their voices took over to the point that Rancourt deemed it appropriate to lower his microphone. What happened next is something you won't soon forget.

I don't know who the hell this father is, but he needs to be arrested. A video of a father whipping his two teenage daughters after apparently catching them "twerking" -- a somewhat sexually suggestive dance popular right now -- has gone viral. (We are choosing not to promote this video, but if you want to see why it's so horrifying, you can go to the link above.) It's unclear how their videotaped punishment made it online. Did the girls themselves upload it? Is it real? It sure sounds real like the real thing. This is not a spanking. It's what you might call an old-fashioned beatdown, and disgustingly, some online are cheering the abusive dad.

Not to sound like a total buzzkill, but cute viral wedding proposals are a dime a dozen these days. Seems like every geek on the Internet is trying to outdo one another by popping the big question in a "quirky" techie way that exhibits their mad photo/video/PhotoShop/Final Cut skills. But nine times out of ten, the result is kinda cookie cutter -- or just really ridiculous. (Anyone proposing via tweet or Facebook post, I'm looking at you.)

Still, that one time out of ten, a guy gets it right and uses technology to make a unique and bold proposal to the love of his life. Consider Jim Brazda, a 31-year-old Omaha, Nebraska photographer, who recently asked his girlfriend Tiffany to be his wife through a video game he designed.

Having a game developer for a dad has to be pretty damn radical if you're a 3-year-old. Imagine a parent encouraging you to park yourself in front of the TV and zone out for a few hours? Heaven for a kid! And what's even cooler about having a father who happens to be a designer is the fact that you can ask him to swap out and rearrange the characters in various games to your liking. Tailor-made video games. Simple as that.

Mike Mika is a veteran designer, and when his 3-year-old daughter wanted Pauline (the girl) to rescue Mario in Donkey Kong, instead of the other way around, he said: "Okay. I can do that."

Facebook photo trends have been coming and going at breakneck speeds over the last couple years (remembering planking? Owling? Batting? Legbombing? I guarantee my husband will never forget leisure diving), but the latest ridiculous-stunt-in-public fads are all about competing for YouTube views. While it might be embarrassing to wear a banana costume in public to record a "Harlem Shake" variation (or lose your job for it), the weirdest video trend I think I've ever heard of is called milking.

Yes: milking. Happily, this doesn't involve anything unsavory happening to innocent cows or breastfeeding moms, but it does involve recording yourself dumping massive amounts of milk over your own head in public.

YOU GUYS, I'M NOT EVEN MAKING THIS UP.

For our military men and women serving overseas, months away from family are long, hard, and tiring. It's seldom that they get to kick back and just relax, but when they do -- they like to have a good time. The result? So many of awesome videos. Tell me you've seen the "Gangnam Style" video from the 22nd company at the U.S. Naval Academy? Or what about the sexy Marines shakin' it to Britney Spears? Or AH! That "Telephone" remake -- the BEST!

Well prepare yourselves for another epic video courtesy of a few fantastic Army soldiers stationed in Afghanistan. Looks like after the Miami Dolphins cheerleaders made their own video of the 2012 runaway hit "Call Me Maybe," the troops wanted to take a stab at it too.

I'll let you be the judge, but I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that the troops' is SO much better. Check 'em out, here:

Late last August, I got a panicked call from my mom. "Holly, babe, Grandma’s not doing well. I’m driving down tomorrow. How soon can you come?"

My dad’s high-school buddy picked me up at the Kansas City airport. As we headed up to the family ranch, I braced myself. I'd studied death and bereavement in college, so I knew a great deal about the whole process. But I realized that watching my 92-year-old grandmother Dorothy Ellis go through it would be the hardest thing I’d faced yet.

When I walked into her room, she looked like she wanted to leap out of bed and scoop me up like she did when I was little. Instead, I spent the next five days sitting by her side, saying the Hail Mary and singing "Silent Night" with her while she drifted in and out of consciousness.

I was ripped apart inside when I had to return to New York, but she gave me a look that told me it was okay. I was sure I’d be back soon for her funeral.
