My parents made this video. My mom shot it and my dad spliced it together and added music. They’re very excited about it. It’s cute. (Both the ducks and my parents.)
You’re welcome.

If this doesn’t melt your heart, then you might be a zombie and you should probably stay away from your loved ones, lest you accidentally feast on their brains:
Judy Pugh, whose home was destroyed by the tornadoes that swept through Tuscaloosa, Alabama on April 27. The ferocious twister left at least 39 dead in Tuscaloosa alone.
Pugh cheerfully told local station WIAT that she rushed to the hallway with her three cats when the mile-wide tornado hit. The roof fell on top of her, but miraculously she and two of her cats were all in one piece. “I tried to get to my hands and knees but I couldn’t. I heard the young men calling ‘Ms. Judy, Ms. Judy, are you in there?’” she recalls.
Pugh was telling the station reporter about how much she missed her third cat Cadie, whom she hadn’t been able to find for three weeks, when the cat walked right up to her during the interview. “I have everything I want now. I have all three cats,” she said.

Nate Dogg makes this face when he wants what I’m eating. As it dawns on him that he might not get shit, he begins to looks desperate and horrified; his lip starts to curl up and then he begins giving me the crazy-eye. It’s too much for me to handle!
So I usually relent.
DON’T YOU JUDGE ME!!1
JUST LOOK AT THIS FACE! (SERIOUSLY. LOOK AT THIS FACE!)

I’ve heard of Hitler cats, but Hitler goldfish?
Fish fans Chris Schatynski, 27, and wife Sarah, 29, placed the little critter in their tank after four-year-old daughter Ellena won him at a fair.
Only then did they see his resemblance to Nazi tyrant Adolf.
Sarah, of Stockport, Gtr Manchester, said: “I was afraid he’d try to take over the tank, but he hasn’t yet.”
Uncanny, no?

One of the reasons I asked Allan to contribute here (aside from his obvious raging awesomeness) is so I could constantly reference this video which is one of the best videos ever made and I’m not even being hyperbolic, y’all:
You’re welcome.

A dog, ‘Leao’, sits for a second consecutive day, next to the grave of her owner, Cristina Maria Cesario Santana, who died in the week’s catastrophic landslides in Brazil, at the cemetery in Teresopolis, near Rio de Janiero, on January 15, 2011.
::sob::
UPDATE: Click here for a link to a photoblog of Leao.
UPDATE 2: Courtesy of commenter DJShay12 (and Google Translate):
The pooch Caramel, now days beside the grave of the lady, Maria Cristina Cesario Santana, who died as a result of heavy rains that hit the mountainous region of Rio last week, won a new home on Sunday. Adopted by a family of Barra da Tijuca, the dog is not the only one to wait for the owner even after his death.
According to veterinary Andrea Lambert, a member of the Special Committee of Animal Protection of the Legislative Assembly of Rio de Janeiro (Alerj) who rescued Caramel and other animals that were left homeless because of rain, stories like this are very common. – The pet has a lot of loyalty – he explains. – The owner ends up being the reference for everything.
In Edinburgh, Scotland, Skye Terrier Greyfriars Bobby statue got a trophy after spending 14 years guarding his owner’s grave until his own death on January 14, 1872. Similar story to the movie Always by your side (2009), starring Richard Gere, in the the dog Hachiko always going to spend years at the same time a train station waiting for the owner who died.
