Man, it was a struggle to get the social media department to participate in a meaningful way today for this post.

For the most part, the email chain requesting videos REGARDING what to post on Trending today would be almost funnier to post.

But…if you simply go through the selections, I think it will become weird: we work with some weird people.

Great people. But.

Weird, weird people…

Here’s what’s trending at Mekanism this week.

Ryan Lee (@owlsquid): Heinz Automato 2

Because there is nothing not cool about this. Nothing. If you don’t like robots, ketchup, or robots and ketchup, you’re fired from life.

Natira Suchoknand (@natirasu): Floating Paint

Proving once again that anything in slow motion…(anything)…looks cool.

Christine Ngo (@ChristineNgo): Whale Cat.

Christine asked me to post this. I don’t know what else to say. I mean. I promise, she’s really REALLY smart. And. Yeah.

Chin Lu (@ChinHuaLu): Bangable Dudes in History

This website is clever, witty, and proves that people on the internet have way…WAY too much time. Because you’d have to actually be smart to write this stuff. Is it sad? Hilarious? Both? I have no idea. But it’s pretty good.

Daisy Cheng (@daise): Vagina Power and Penis Power

You know? Daisy scores big for bringing this one out. I mean…why is this a video? Who is viewing it and taking it seriously? Hopefully…you. Hopefully YOU are now, internet reader.

Drew Hoolhorst (@drewber): Alan. Alan. Alan.

I’m sorry. This just hasn’t gotten old yet. Bravo, british people…for understanding that your voices are ridiculous and should be attached to ridiculous animals. Thank you for really finally acknowledging it.

I could watch this video 1,783 times and still snort laughing.

See you all next Friday.
