Something I Stumbled Upon!

So to start off my blog I thought that I would share with you a new guilty pleasure I indulge in, stumbling. I'm sure you are aware of what stumbling is but for those of you who have mistaken my verb for falling up stairs here its actually a website that takes you to random and new sites. This horrible yet great invention has claimed many hours, maybe even years of my life that I will never get back. So in this post I will share with you some of my favorite links I stumbled across today!


1. My apologizes for the language.






The first video I want to share with you has a bit of foul language but assuming at we're all adults we can appreciate the humor in this video. Not only is this one of my favorite songs but I thought I would get points for "communication methods." I mean honestly how can this not brighten your day, who doesn't love witty dances telling their ex-boyfriends to go  them selves.

2. Strange USA


Being the weird kind of person I am I take great interest in hauntings and creepy things in general. So while stumbling I came across this glorious site about strange things in America. You simply choose a state then venture to whatever city you please and check out all the worthwhile places to visit. Wilmington has six noted spots!

3. Saturday Night Live


Being one of my favorite shows I encourage all of you to bone up on the ins and outs of SNL. This site includes cast list, character lists, commercials, episodes, guest appearance lists, impressions, seasons, sketches and the weekend updates. Enjoy! 

4. 90's Playlist


Okay I'm going to be honest, my other guilty pleasure besides stumbling is 90's music. Being a product of the 90's is one of my personal qualities I value a lot. Just yesterday I rocked out to the musical stylings of Hanson while doing my hair. Just something about this music puts me in a much better mood. Hope you enjoy, I'll be spending the rest of my day listening to this playlist. 

5. Obey the Game

This game is 100% pointless, but completely entertaining at the same time. The game will have a word on the screen that you need to either obey or disobey by using the arrow keys. For example the word will be walk and if the game wants you to disobey the command it will flash the word disobey so don't blink. But if it doesn't flash disobey, obey the command. A little confusing but you'll get the hang it.

6. Last one promise!

Here's a link just to brighten your day, cute animal pictures. I know what you're thinking how does stumbleupon know all my desires? It will forever be a mystery.


Anyway that's my post for the week I hope you enjoy the explorations of my stumbling as much as I did. Have a great week!

  1. I love 90's music too! It brings back so many memories for me. It's definitely one of my guilty pleasures too. Oh and I love the "cute animals." Boo is the cutest dog ever!

  2. AHHH. I am addicted to stumbling. It seriously almost ruined my finals this semester. Best invention ever, but the most dangerous for those who are prone to procratinate (like me). I loved the sign language video and the SNL archives. I'm a huge fan of SNL so I'm adding that to my favorites. Have you ever stumbled this music game. It shows pictures that are meant to be symbols and you guess what song it's describing (the color yellow + a submarine + a beatle = Yellow Submarine by the Beatles) You have a time limit you have to guess it in. Completely pointless but then again, so is stumbling. =]

  3. Haha, nice! I love stumble upon. I literally have to limit the number of times I stumble or it just dominates my days. Also, is it weird for a guy to like those pictures of cute animals as much as I did?...Probobly is. Anyway, I like your picks here. Stumble Upon is good times; good pointless times.

  4. I have lost many of my precious hours to stumbleupon.com and I will never get them back, but I don't mind. I'm totally addicted to stumbling! It's such a great distraction and instantly cures my boredom. By looking at your "stumblings" we have a lot in common! SNL is also my favorite shows. I watch the show religiously. So I love watching old videos :) I also appreciate The Strange USA stumble! I love, LOVE scary stuff. I find it so fascinating. Wilmington has a reputation for its hauntings. You have to continue to share you stumbles with us!

  5. StumbleUpon is a great way to find entertaining and interesting things. You can learn a lot through their website. As well as be presented with information that you wouldn't normal seek. I can spend hours on Stumble and how found the neatest stuff. Keep on stumblin'!
