Pegacorns, Cheetos, and Power Rangers, oh my! Last-minute inspiration from Katy Perry, Beyoncé, Justin Bieber, Taylor Swift, and more.
The "Flamin' Hot" variety, natch.

Detroit’s spry indie pop tag-team on their love of Boyz II Men, farting on the tour bus, and the integrity of extraterrestrials.

If you're not yet familiar with Dale Earnhardt Jr. Jr., you're in luck: allow us to introduce you to their immensely pleasurable latest single "James Dean," a wistfully melancholic synth-pop gem that extends an impressive run of catchy tunes since the band first began in 2010. Daniel Zott and Josh Epstein are the two guys behind the band (no relation to the NASCAR hero), and they stopped by BuzzFeed LA to play some music and answer some very ~important~ questions. This is what we learned.
1. How did you guys come up with the name of the band?
Josh: We were both in different bands before this, and we wanted to come up with a name that was so ridiculous that we could do anything we want, musically. This was around the time where every band's name was called Crystal something, or Neon something, and we were talking about how much of a hindrance it is to bands, like changing their sound. Because once you have a sound and you sound like something, then it kind of sticks. So then this band became the band that we were in, and now we have the dumbest name in the world.
2. Your new song "James Dean" talks about how cool he is; who else is super cool to you?
Josh: Thom Yorke is like the nerdiest, coolest guy in the world. We always talk about this: It must be hard to be Radiohead, because you are the coolest thing in the world, the band at least, and then to have a normal day, if nothing you do is cool during the day, it's like, oh. I imagine everything he does is cool.
Daniel: People would not want to buy his records if they saw him walking through McDonald's.
3. Favorite music video?
Josh: I'm really showing my age here, but "Thriller."
Daniel: Yeah, it's a pretty typical answer, but nothing really beats that.
4. First album you ever bought?
Daniel: Boyz II Men Cooleyhighharmony.
Josh: I want to say Pearl Jam Ten.
5. Last show you went to?
Daniel: Katy Perry, Prismatic Tour.
Josh: He went in Detroit, and I actually went to the one in LA. But last I went to see this band called Mosco Rosco.
6. What song would you pick to play as your entrance music?
Josh: I would go "Regulator."
7. Favorite word?
Josh: I know what Dan's favorite word is. "Asinine."
Daniel: My dad used to say it.
8. Favorite curse word?
Josh: I'm going to be controversial and say "c*nt."
Daniel: I hate that word.
Josh: I know, but it's got a special power, more than any other word. You can call someone anything and it won't really offend them, but if you call someone a c*nt, that's like a real thing.
Daniel: Shit.
9. Favorite vegetable?
Josh: Eggplant
Daniel: I was going to say eggplant.
10. What do you normally eat for breakfast?
Josh: Every morning I have the exact same thing. I cook some onions, bacon, chopped up with some curry paste, then I add peppers, eggs, and cheese. So I have a little curried bacon scramble.
Daniel: I do a lot of scrambled eggs, with my own hash browns. I keep it plain.
11. Favorite emoji?
Daniel: I don't really have a favorite, but I think the last one I sent is that dancing marimba girl.
Josh: I'm next level with emojis. I actually now have this thing where I have emojis of my own face and I'll send those to people.

The frog is cute, but it is always watching you.
There’s still time to get your Gilly on. As seen on the TODAY Show !
We went on the TODAY Show to give you a hand with "Saturday Night Live"-themed costumes you can make with stuff you probably already have around the house.

All this cozy costume requires is grey sweatpants, a matching sweatshirt, a belt, and a willing pal. Stuff the shirts with paper towels or polyfill if you need to bulk up.

The biggest challenge here is finding a box large enough to put your whole body in. When that's done, just cut holes for the head and arms and wrap the whole thing in the worst Christmas paper you can find. (We found that it was easiest to cut the holes before wrapping and then cut the paper after it was all wrapped.) Add gloves and a dance routine and you're good to go.

Take a black dress you don't wear anymore and cut out hearts, as well as a hairbow, from red and pink felt. Attach them with glue (or safety pins if you'd like to use the dress afterward). Dig up a short-sleeved white shirt and find a curly brown wig if your hair can't achieve Gilly's majesty on its own.

It’s scary out there in your twenties.
In a lone cabin, in the middle of the woods, a bored woman is scrolling through her Instagram feed when suddenly, she comes across her dashing and mysterious crush. Seemingly without control, she starts obsessively going through his pictures. And then...out of no where...her thumb trembles over a picture from 6 months ago. She liked it and there was no turning back.
An intern checks her e-mail early one morning. Her mother's email is at the top of the box, the subject line: "Phone Plan". Scared but calm, she clicks and gasps at the contents: "Your father and I don't think you should be on the Family Plan anymore. You have until the end of the month to get on your own plan. Love you, Mom". Shattered and broken, the intern goes back to her job search.
How has that Glamour spell paid off?
Let's take a look back on what its cast looked like back in 1996, and what they look like now, shall we?
