What is in a name? Well there is a lot of legal paperwork in those proposed names — this is a list of attempted name changes so weird that they were denied. The names are almost as absurd as the fact that someone on the Supreme Court gave them serious consideration before ultimately saying no.

1. 1069
   The North Dakota Supreme Court and Minnesota Supreme Courts both said names can’t be numbers
2. III
   To be pronounced “Three”; the California Court of Appeals rejected this on the same grounds as 1069
3. Mary R.
   Mary Ravitch didn’t want to use her husband’s name anymore but also did not want to go back to her maiden name. Her creative solution was to change her last name to an initial. The Pennsylvania Superior Court decided that “[the] Appellant’s desired surname is so bizarre that it would likely be met with repeated suspicion and distrust in both business and social settings.”
4. Misteri Nigger
   The i is silent…So this one would be pronounced Mister Nigger. The California Court of Appeals deemed these “fighting words” and that Russel Lawrence Lee (the petitioner’s name) was a much safer bet.
5. Santa Claus
   An Ohio judge rejected this petition stating the petitioner was seeking more than a name change. That he was seeking an identity recognized throughout the world.

Here are our fave youtube videos, the ones that never get old. These hardly need an introduction.

1. And the whistles go Wooo Woooo
   The headline is “noisy cars” amazing.
2. Leprechaun in mobile Alabama
   Proof that the media is willing to bravely report on tree climbing leprechauns
3. The zombie kid likes turtles
   Funny, we always thought zombies liked people
4. Grape lady falls
   This lady from Fox news is pretty pissy to begin with, then she gets into stomping the grapes, then she tries to cheat, then falls out of her grape bucket, then she moans like really strangely
5. Requisite Cat Video
   The cat videos abound, here is one that claims to be an authority
6. Chocolate Rain
   This might have been an honest attempt at making music, we sure hope not
7. Miss South Carolina
   Watch as this coherent, beautiful young lady confirms all of our suspicions about contestants in beauty pageants
8. Star Wars Kid
   This works on so many levels, of course this kid is obsessed with Star Wars, but swinging around a golf ball retriever (yea that is what that is) is almost too much really. We are so not worthy Star Wars kid
9. Panda Sneeze
   Adorable
10. Charlie Bit Me
    Even my mom has seen this one

What is it about seeing a super star fall flat on their famous butt? Maybe the reason we can’t look away from these performances that went wrong is because when celebs fall it is from so high up.

1. J-Lo at Amas
   J-Lo stars in a series of unfortunate judgment calls. Let’s all for a minute forget she is 40 and singing about Loubotins — who thought this human stair case was a good idea? And really, did nobody realize the dancers would be sweaty…bravo.
2. Beyonce falling down a flight of stairs
   Beyonce prooves that head banging is not for everyone nor flights of stairs apparently. Still kind of awesome how she gets right up and keeps spasmodically flipping that weave/wig thing.
3. Ashlee Simpson gives a lemon at the Orange Bowl
   I mean the song says it all “you make me wanna scream”. If you watch from 2:38-2:48 you just have to feel bad for her.
4. Miss South Carolina makes a name for herself
   Who says no one listens to a beauty queen? Miss South Carolina gained instant fame when her attempt to answer a question about education made a real life example of how school systems fail. For those of you that have seen this a thousand times the above video has subtitles.
5. Bret Michaels loses his head
   At the Tony Awards, Bret Michaels receives a near coup de grace. The smug has-been can’t seem to take a hint even when it nearly takes his head off — dude it’s curtains for you.

We’ve all seen it, the co-dependent male celeb relationship or as the press likes to call it Bromance. But sometimes, celeb couples get a little to close for comfort and then we get caught in Bad Bromance — here are our top five

1. Matt Damon and Ben Affleck
   The boys that do everything together including work on their acting chops. Nobody is mad at you guys for Good Will Hunting but seriously, you seem to be getting a bit too cuddley, maybe take a quick break.
2. Tobey Maguire Leonardo Dicaprio
   Here are Leo and Tobey in their official B’nai (co-Bar) Mitzvah video. Bonus points if you can spot – Leo wearing a Leonardo Davinci shirt, the dude from scrubs and Tobey Maguire looking like he desperately needs a razor.
3. Sherlock Holmes and Watson are the bromance that started it all. This dynamic crime fighting duo used their combined powers to creatively solve crime and entertain generations. Jude Law and Robert Downey Jr. were channeling their roles at the premiere of their movie, apparently they couldn’t keep their hands off each other.
4. Jason Segal and Paul Rudd satire the idea of Bromance in their movie I Love you Man but we all know the truth, that secretly they were feeling these roles.
5. Chace Crawford and Ed Westwick — their burgeoning bromance has the paparrzzi all aflutter. So cute together now but we are pretty sure that sometime soon we will get enough of these two pretty boys.
