Today’s Best Time Wasting Tumblr Account: ‘Waldo At The Masters’

Written by Ashley Burns / 04.12.13

I may or may not have a Google news alert set for “Paulina Gretzky wearing tank tops in public”, but it worked in my favor today because Wayne Gretzky’s pride and joy is currently running around Augusta National supporting her boyfriend Dustin Johnson. I have no clue where he currently stands, but if I were him I’d never be standing again.

Hit it.

Anywho, that was my strange, unrelated way of talking about the new Tumblr account that will be almost as hot as Paulina this weekend, “Waldo at the Masters”, which is photoshopped pictures of America’s favorite Hide N Seek champ hanging out in the gallery at Augusta National. There’s not much else to it, and there doesn’t have to be. I love Waldo and I love the Masters tournament, so unless someone finds a way to incorporate Taco Bell’s Volcano Tacos, I’m pretty confident that this is going to be my favorite thing of this weekend.

Kate Upton Didn’t Try Very Hard This Halloween, But Who Cares

Written by Brandon Stroud / 11.01.11

What you’re looking at, by way of @KateUpton, is America’s Best Girl dressed as a zombie version of Marilyn Monroe for Heidi Klum’s Halloween party. I guess a better description might be “Marilyn Monroe during filming of The Seven Year Itch if the subway breeze blew her into the street where she fractured her arms and exposed the bones instead of just blowing up her skirt”, or, as Sportress Of Blogitude suggests, “Partially Decomposed (But Not In A Grotesque Way Which Would Cause Me To Appear Not Totally Hot) Marilyn Monroe”.

Regardless, this is one of Kate’s two mostly-effortless costumes for the season. The other, a bottle of Tabasco Sauce with a simultaneously cute and sexual Nutrition Facts label, can be seen along with more of Dead Marilyn (too soon) after the jump. What, you think I’m going to put up pictures of Kate Upton and not make you click through them? You don’t know anything about blogging. Keep your hands where I can see them.

The World’s Largest Gathering Of Where’s Waldo Enthusiasts Happened

Written by Ashley Burns / 06.21.11

The past two weeks have been a heated, troubling time for thousands of people around the world. You see, in 2009, 1,052 people gathered at Rutgers University to set the Guinness World Record for the most people dressed like Waldo, of “Where’s Waldo?” fame, in the same place at one time. On June 12, another group of Waldo enthusiasts decided they’d had enough of that record, as 2,563 people congregated in Fitzgerald Park in Cork, Ireland to break that record. Sadly, Ireland remains a broken nation, and this past weekend 3,657 people showed up to break that record in Dublin’s Merrion Square.

With that many drunken Irish people dressed as Waldo – or Wally as they call him across the pond – I’m guessing the wife swapping was at an all-time high. At least I’m hoping. As for the event itself…

According to The Daily Mail, the Street Performance World Championships organized this event in an attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the most number of Waldos (or Wallys) in one location. A total of 3,657 people showed up at Merrion Square in Dublin over the weekend, all wearing the immediately recognizable dark-rimmed glasses and striped outfits.

The Guinness committee hasn’t yet verified if it is a record, but the crowd seemed pretty sure they had pulled it off, singing Queen’s “We Are The Champions” to denote their victory. They also sang “YMCA” by the Village People. (Via Syracuse.com)

Another account has the 3,657 number being broken by yet another Irish gathering of 3,782 Waldo’s/Wally’s, but that comes from an Internet news commenter so it might as well be from the homeless man I gave half my pizza crust to the other night.
