This year’s Oscar Gift Bag–the door prize for everyone nominated for an Academy Award–is valued at $125K and includes vibrators and weed vaporizers. Hollywood is so edgy, guys.

But no seriously, a small part of me thinks this is hilarious and the larger part of me is really pissed I didn’t pay more attention to Mr. Duncan and his acting tips. I want this bag. Sh*t, I want anything that’s valued at $125K. Here’s what’s in the bag, via Variety:

• 3-night stay at a resort in Tuscany ($1,500)

• Luxury train ride through the Canadian Rockies ($14,500+)

• French Mediterranean sea salts worth ($1,500)

• Custom silver necklace inscribed with the latitude and longitude coordinates of the Dolby Theater from Lat & Lo ($150)

• A “glamping trip” ($12,500)

• $800 gift certificate for custom candy and dessert buffet

• Haze vaporizer ($250)

• Afterglow vibrator ($250)

• Wellness 360 gift pack ($1,200)

• Year’s worht of all-Audi A4 car rental ($20,000)

• Reset Yourself lifestyle makeover package ($14,200)

We’ll be the first to admit that a lot of this stuff sounds pointless but awesome, however the one prize I actually have a problem with is the “Reset Yourself” lifestyle makeover package. Dudes, these people are making MILLIONS in movies. Tell me again what the f*ck they need to “reset?”

Just sit back with your Haze vaporizer and (if you’re a girl) your Afterglow vibrator and enjoy yourselves.

One note: The people who get these Academy Awards gift bags have to pay taxes on them. For that reason, most people give them away.

Kendra Sunderland is about to break the internet way harder than Kim Kardashian ever did. The former OSU student garnered recognition after making an adult video in her college’s library last year, and has since been seen trying to blow pizza delivery boys and divulging why the library was the sweet spot.

See the Hottest Photos of OSU Student Kendra Sunderland here.

Now she’s back with a new business endeavor: before her fame runs out, Sunderland is launching a sugar dating site called DateBrokeCollegeGirls.com.

The point is similar to the site Seeking Arrangement – for hot, debt-drowning college students to get things paid for by generous, wealthy suitors. Sunderland explains, “I wanted to create a place online where young women can feel empowered, and meet successful individuals that can help them during a very stressful and challenging time…I’m personally a member of the sugar dating community, and have seen the benefits these relationships provide a young woman firsthand. Everyone benefits from having a mentor that can help you navigate challenges, especially ones they’ve overcome themselves – like managing student debts and starting a career.”

The site is the first of it’s kind to be run by an actual sugar baby. Uh, kudos?

James Harden had his jersey #13 retired last night by ASU, officially making him one of Arizona State University’s best players. Watch the ceremony in a video shot from the cheap seats here. We’re looking for a better version now. [lead image via HouseofSparky]

It goes without saying, but Harden deserves a retirement ceremony (even if it is really early). Halfway through the season, The Beard is the frontrunner to win NBA MVP. He’s also one of the Sun Devils most respected athletes, for his performances both on and off the court.

It takes a special kind of animal to be able to survive the ASU party life in one piece, and it looks like James is doing just that. We had the opportunity to ask him about his time at ASU in an interview earlier this Summer, so make sure to read that here. Spoiler alert: Oregano’s was his favorite spot.

I wonder how many of his friends expected the man below to grow into the man above.

The man’s still got it by the way.

We won’t mince words here: Panama City Beach is a sh*tshow. We went last year and witnessed what can only be experienced in person. Everywhere you look dudes are bonging beers, chicks are dancing their faces (and other things) off. It’s a Spring Breakers paradise.

Hopefully more than a few of you will be heading down in the next few weeks, but for the rest of you suckers these GIFs are about as real as it’s going to get.

Will Smith hung out with Letterman last night and got back to his rapping roots when he busted out an unexpected “Gettin’ Jiggy With It” performance. It was like we were back in elementary school again.

It goes without saying that big Willy is still the man. Check it out below.

As you’re no doubt aware, it’s not only cold as balls right now it’s snowing everywhere. For that reason a lot of colleges and universities have cancelled class (or should–I see you UTennessee).

But all that snow isn’t stopping the party, it’s just making it wilder–as powder is apt to do. Just look at these dudes from Old Dominion University.

But not everyone is as crazy these people. Instead, they use their natural surroundings and improvise. Check out these students who are taking advantage of the natural beer cooler and built beer pong tables out of the snow.

Somehow Daniel Tosh has managed to keep his trap shut about the whole Deflategate scandal, but based on this video, that quiet time is officially over.

The comedian went off on the Patriots winning the big game despite their known cheating tactics, ripping the team, their precious Tom Brady, and even his wife, Gisele Bundchen. Come on Tosh, keep hot women out of it!

Check out the hate speech below, then peep the craziest Daniel Tosh facts here.

“Kobe Bryant’s Muse”, a documentary series that goes behind the stats to reveal the story of Kobe Bryant’s career, exploring the mentorships, allies and rivalries that have helped shape his stellar 18-year tenure in the NBA, and offering access to his daily experiences, his lifelong inspirations and the battle with his greatest personal challenge yet.

The series is set to premiere on Saturday February 28th, 9/8c on Showtime. Watch the trailer below.

Jen Selter, 21-year-old booty aficionado, has officially made it clear that she got it from her mama when she posted a photo on Instagram showing the two posing in matching white bikinis. Schwing.

In the post, Jen reveals that her mom Jill hits the gym almost as often as she does – about 4-5 times a week – and that she also acts as her personal trainer.

“Like mother, like daughter” never sounded so sweet. Check out Jill’s hottest photos to see what we’re talking about.

The movie Fight Club is one of the most popular films of our generation, so you should be pretty excited that Chuck Palahniuk has finished writing Fight Club 2. In fact, Playboy.com just released the first six pages of the new graphic novel starring the narrator (now Sebastian), Tyler Durden, Marla and… a child! Here’s a quick synopsis:

Some imaginary friends never go away… Ten years after starting Project Mayhem, he lives a mundane life. A kid, a wife, pills to keep his destiny at bay. But it won’t last long; the wife has seen to that. The time has come…Rize or Die.

Hef’s inked exclusive deal with the publishers (Dark Horse), but we still wanted to show you a sneak preview of what’s to come. Make sure to check out Playboy for the full six pages though.

Goran Dragic has been traded to the Miami Heat, according to Adrian Wojnarowski. Technically the deal hasn’t gone through yet, but if we could believe anyone in the world it’s Woj. He’s pretty much batting 1.000.

Woj is also reporting that Milwaukee’s dealt Brandon Knight to the Suns, so there’s got to be a much bigger deal going down.

Of course, as a New York Knick fan playing the Miami Heat tomorrow I’m pissed. But the tank rolls on.

The 2015 gaming year has finally started to get moving, thanks to two major releases that were originally meant for last year but were pushed back due to delays. One is Evolve, the multiplayer-focused shooter in which one guy plays as a humongous beast that the others take on as puny humans. There’s also The Order: 1886, a steampunk shooter about a secret society of extraordinary gentlemen who protect the unsuspecting populace in covert missions. On the download tip, new DLC for Far Cry 4 and the PS4 bullet hell opus Super Stardust Ultra are out to compete with the big boys for your attention and cash.

Reviews by Phil Villarreal. Phil is an author, blogger and Twitterer. Publishers provided review copies.

Evolve

(Xbox One, PS4, $60, Mature)

Asymetric multiplayer is the buzz term in this innovative multiplayer shooter, which has a squadron of four brave and stupid operatives take on a towering monster controlled by another player. The David vs. Goliath feel echoes last year’s Titanfall, but there’s an entirely different feel here. Your strategy varies greatly depending on what role you take on. It’s no surprise that it’s the most fun to play as the beast (a rotation among ungodly creations dubbed Wraith, Kraken and, appropriately, Goliath), who is assaulted from all sides as he gobbles up monsters to morph into increasingly larger, uglier and deadlier menaces. It’s thrilling to stalk and destroy your helpless, futile prey. Thrilling animations and lavish maps filled with hazards and hiding spots make for relentless tension.

On the other side, there’s also a tremendous thrill to working with others in order to conquer an all-but-invincible beast. The problem with the game is the same problem with humanity. Random pairings heaped upon you by matchmaking tend to group you with uncommunicative idiots, making it too easy for whoever is lucky enough to play as the monster to pick your team apart. The best way to play the game is to band together with four friends, making it impossible for a moron to come in and screw things up. Evolve, which goes all in on an excellent concept that tends to fall apart in gameplay, is better in theory than in practice. Despite the frustrations brought on by other players, there’s still enough here to make the game one of the best multiplayer offerings on current-gen systems.

Anyone who’s ever played organized basketball knows this play. You’re inbounding the ball and the guy guarding you has his back turned. What do you do? Throw it off his back.

The thing is, no one ever gets to do this. It’s rare as f*ck. Why do you think #5 Devon Andrews is smiling before the play? He just hit a jackpot.

So the fact that this short white kid had this happen to him and got dunked on makes me hurt. Obviously props to Devon for the heads up play, but c’mon #21. Play better defense. Maybe that’s why your team is losing 39-74.

So pissed.

So happy.

In the near future, you’ll be able to satisfy your munchies with Ben and Jerry’s marijuana ice cream. Score.

In an interview with Huffington Post, founders Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield hinted at making the concoction after legalization, explaining that it would “make sense” to combine both “pleasures.”

Greenfield went on to add, “Ben and I have had previous experiences with substances, and I think legalizing marijuana is a wonderful thing…It’s not my decision. If it were my decision, I’d be doing it, but fortunately we have wiser heads at the company that figure those things out.”

Jerry boy, we hear you. We’re were waiting for the day we can light up in the street and eat some cannabis ice cream, but until then, stock up on Little Caesar’s bacon crust pizza after a night of getting stoned. That’ll definitely do.

So here’s what Jason Momoa will look like as Aquaman in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice–since the “Dawn of Justice” in the title is really the dawn of the Justice League of America, although the DC movie people will probably just make it “Justice League” now. Anyway, the Justice League comic is the DC Comics equivalent of Marvel’s The Avengers, and they’re very eager to get that franchise off the ground to compete with Marvel at the movies.

Jason Momoa is looking good, too. Nobody expected for the big-screen Aquaman to have a similar outfit to the one in the comics, anyway. That’s because the classic Aquaman outfit looks like this…

The pic was posted overnight by director Zack Snyder via his Twitter account, so it’s going to be a geekgastic morning for a lot of folks. We mostly like the monochromatic hair on Momoa, and that they let him keep the trident. That trident’s important, man.

Now we’re going to stare at that Twitter account for a few more hours, in case Snyder decides to post another pic of Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman. She looks like this….

Harris Wittels is dead of a heroin overdose at the age of 30, and that’s really depressing. Especially since the very busy comic had just done a show this Wednesday in Los Angeles that included some talk about how he was staying clean and recovered. It’ll take comedy a while to recover from losing Harris Wittels–who seems to mostly be getting cited as a producer of Parks and Recreation.

Which he was, but Harris also wrote at least one great episode of Eastbound and Down, and was a big part of the Analyze Phish podcast, and launched the whole “Humblebrag” movement, where he called out folks trying to look modest on Twitter while talking about their fabulous lives. There was a book, but we guess Humblebrag is now mostly immortalized via the original Twitter account. dfsdfsdf

Anyway, there’ll be a lot of tributes going on all day. Here’s Harris just being casually funny on a podcast. It’s not the episode where he talks about trying to score heroin at the park…

The last 20 years have seen an influx of college athletes going to school for just one year and then jumping to the pro level in basketball while football players leave early all the time as well after their junior year or redshirt sophomore year. The Big Ten appears ready to make some changes that would have a huge ripple effect on every other conference around the country.

The conference is considering the idea of making freshmen athletes ineligible for competition. The statement is calling for a “national discussion regarding a year of readiness for student-athletes”. It is a shocking thought to see college basketball players who excelled in high school needing to sit out a year but it is something that was done in all NCAA sports until 1972.

If the Big Ten decides to go through with this, the question is what happens with the rest of the major conferences around the country. Are the SEC, Big 12, ACC and Pac-12 going to join the Big Ten then? The NBA has wanted the age limit to be raised to 20 which may be coming into play here. It is something that would change college basketball for sure and bears some serious watching over the next few months.

As the 87^th Annual Academy Awards is approaching, and the question is: who’s going to win what award? The award for Best Actress has gone to many amazing actresses before.

Here is a list of all the previous Best Actress award winners:

1927-28: Janet Gaynor (7^th Heaven/ Street Angel/ Sunrise)

1928/29: Mark Pickford (Coquette)

1929/30: Norma Shearer (The Divorcee)

1930/31: Marie Dressler (Min and Bill)

1931/32: Helen Hayes (The Sin of Madelon Claudet)

1932/33: Katharine Hepburn (Morning Glory)

1934: Claudette Colbert (It Happened One Night)

1935: Bette Davis (Dangerous)

1936: Luise Rainer (The Great Ziegfeld)

1937: Luise Rainer (The Good Earth)

1938: Bette Davis (Jezebel)

1939: Vivien Leigh (Gone with the Wind)

1940: Ginger Rogers (Kitty Foyle)
