Good Friday 2016 Images: Funny Photos, Best Jokes & Memes

Good Friday Memes

Really, every Friday is a good Friday, but only Good Friday bears the official title. While it’s not a federal holiday in the United States, some states—like Florida, Texas, and New Jersey—observe it. Hallelujah!  If you don’t live in one of the chosen states, then you’re experience with Good Friday might just be limited to people complaining that they can’t eat meat…or confessing to the fact that they ate meat anyway.

But, what is Good Friday and why does it turn the people around you into unwilling (or, at least, very guilty) vegetarians?


What is Good Friday?

Good Friday—also known as Holy Friday, Great Friday, Black Friday—is a religious holiday that commemorates the crucifixion of Jesus Christ. It takes place on the Friday during Holy Week, the week leading up to Easter. Some countries, such as Germany, have laws prohibiting certain activities, such as dancing and gambling, that are seen disrespectful of the solemn nature of the day.

While the way it is celebrated differs from denomination to denomination, Catholics observe the Stations of the Cross, a service that’s usually held from noon to 3.00 pm, giving it the charming nickname of the Three Hours’ Agony. It features a series of images that depict the events on the day of Jesus’s (temporary) death, with accompanying prayers. Not all celebrations are held in the church. Some Christians pray on their own, fast, or abstain from certain foods, hence everyone’s suddenly complicated relationship with meat.

Paige VanZant: Hottest Photos of The DWTS MMA Fighter

Paige VanZant hot photos

Quite possibly one of the hottest women to ever enter the realm of MMA, Paige VanZant made her way onto the notoriously popular reality dance competition series DWTS and instantly proved to the world that being a lover and a fighter is not only 100% possible, but also 100% hot as all get out. Whether you’re aware of the hotness that Paige VanZant possesses or just now stumbling across this rare and beautiful gem of a woman; there’s just no denying the fact that this DWTS MMA fighting knock-out truly does appear to be a real life diamond in the rough.

Born and raised in Dayton, Oregon, Paige VanZant actually began her dance career far before she made her way to the ring with the help of her parents who owned a dance studio. Although she was noted to have been a tom boy who had no problem getting her hands dirty, Paige also spent her youth as a ballet, jazz, and hip hop dancer. So how did she make her way into MMA fighting? Well, supposedly we can thank a group of girls who bullied her for her desire to learn a thing or two about self defense. What better way to utilize a few fierce self taught fighting skills then to become a professional MMA fighter and get paid to do what you’re already great at, right?

With an interesting past, one heck of a hot bod, and some pretty fantastic dance skills; DWTS MMA fighting dance contestant Paige VanZant is just plain hot in every way imaginable. See for yourself by checking out her hottest photos on the internet in the gallery below!

Remember Ewan McGregor? That British dude from Moulin Rouge? Don’t pretend you didn’t watch it at your own will — liking Elton John is nothing to be ashamed about. Well, the actor’s daughter is a total knockout and the world is finally starting to notice.

Clara turned heads when she showed up alongside her famous Dad during the Miles Ahead premiere in New York City.

Makes sense. Not only is she gorgeous, but she’s standing next to a dude in plaid pants…

So what do you need to know about the gorgeous celebrity spawn? Well, in 2014 Clara launched her own online photography site to showcase her art. She definitely has talent. She’s also interested in acting and hopefully modeling… someone that good-looking should be in front of a camera.

Asking Alexandria new album stream

Asking Alexandria’s new album The Black has arrived, and like the band themselves, it doesn’t quit. The hard-working Englishmen are pretty much perpetually either touring or releasing new albums. Three singles have already been released: “I Won’t Give In,” the titular “The Black,” and “Let It Sleep.”


Stream Asking Alexandria’s The Black

Spotify is the place to go, like always, if you want to pipeline The Black into your headphones without all that fussy “occupying space on hard drive” nonsense.

On the other hand, some folks like owning the album, and for those people, iTunes is the place to download The Black so it’s both on your device and cloud-accessible.


Buy Asking Alexandria’s The Black on Amazon

But you, sir, you, I can tell, are a discerning customer, and no mere stream of 1s and 0s is enough for you. You need to hold The Black in your hands and own it digitally. Amazon exists for people like you.


Buy Asking Alexandria’s The Black at Target

Now your old-school collector doesn’t care about digital, he just wants that album, and it’s hard to beat Target’s $9 price point.

New York Post Writer Tweets Asinine Comment About Garry Shandling’s Death & The World Ripped Him a New One

When news broke that legendary comedian Garry Shandling passed away yesterday, people were devastated, especially his comedian friends. The loss was sudden and unexpected, and considering how much Shandling contributed to the entertainment industry, the reactions were justified.

But unlike the comedy greats, New York Post writer Steve Cuozzo didn’t understand the big f*cking deal. And of course, he was smart enough to voice that opinion on Twitter, to which he received an infinite amount of fiery backlash. Because when you’re a d*ck that’s used to writing about tuna tartare, that’s what happens.

Here’s the tweet:

What a moron. The guy was a legend! Even I know that! Not to mention, what kind of a**hole insults a guy right after he dies? He has no way to defend himself! He deserved every bit of backlash he got, which was a lot — Twitter (namely comedians) literally ripped him a new virtual a**hole.

F*ck you, Steve Cuozzo — stick to the Post.

Zayn Mind of Mine Stream

Zayn Malik’s first solo album, Mind of Mine just dropped, and I know you’re expecting a bunch of jokes about One Direction and/or leaving One Direction, but good luck with that. Have you seen how crazy Directioners are? No way are we going to provoke their foaming wrath. What we can do is tell you where to stream, download, and buy it so you’re not running around in every direction (ha!) trying to find it.

The artist formerly known as “That Guy from One Direction, I Only Know about Them Because My Daughter Won’t Stop Crying that He Left” has already released a single, “Like I Would,” but you’ve got to buy the deluxe edition to hear it (and note, that’s a different deluxe album than the Target one, below). Other singles come stock: “BeFoUr,” and “iT’s YoU.”


Stream Zayn Malik’s Mind of Mine

Who’s got money for fancy deluxe album in this day and age of your parents losing their jobs to robots and socialists? Nobody, that’s who. Thank goodness you can hear “Like I Would” for free on Spotify. In fact, just stream the whole dang album.


Buy Zayn Malik’s Mind of Mine on iTunes

Why don’t you thank Apple for not handing the Feds a backdoor into your phone by buying Zayn’s Mind of Mine from iTunes?


Buy Zayn Malik’s Mind of Mine on Amazon

Do it! You know you want to. Don’t listen to the doubters and haters who point out that Amazon is bleeding money. You have faith they’ll ship your copy of Mind of Mine in time! You believe! GO FOR IT!


Buy Zayn Malik’s Mind of Mine at Target

Back in the day there used to be these places called malls where kids could hang out and gleam the cube or meet Stan Lee…basic Americana stuff, all without getting into too much trouble. Those days are gone, and only the big box stores remain. You ever try bullying someone in a big box store? It’s just not the same. Thank goodness for cyberspace. Anyway, your favorite big box store this week is Target, because it has an exclusive deluxe version of the album with two bonus tracks: “DO SOMETHING GOOD” and “GOLDEN.”

Yes, those titles are all in caps, and believe us, that’s the sanest track listing on the album. Every other track is spelled like a MySpace screen name (remember MySpace? From the age of malls?), all written LiKE thIs.

#CruzSexScandal is Taking Over Twitter Thanks To a National Enquirer Bombshell

Ted Cruz Sex Scandal

Scott Olson | Getty Images

After Donald Trump threatened to go after Ted Cruz and his wife a few days ago, The National Enquirer beat him to the punch.

The rag magazine’s March 25th issue threw a huge bombshell into the 2016 GOP primary: Ted Cruz has been having an affair with five different women. Frankly I’m surprised he was able to get one, but five?! Something seems off and I’m calling bullsh*t… but I digress.

The Enquirer managed to maintain some form of integrity by not naming names and just publishing several pixelated photos. But because the Internet is full of geniuses, three of the women have already been identified.

 

So who the hell are these women? Here are their names, from right to left: Trump spokesperson Katrina Pierson, former Carly Fiorina staffer Sarah Isgur Flores, and former Cruz communications director Amanda Carpenter. Carpenter is married, while Flores and Pierson are not.

Of course a trending hashtag — #CruzSexScandal– has already taken over Twitter, and the reactions are pure gold:

Even if this isn’t true, those were absolutely hilarious. The magazine’s allegations come just days after Donald Trump accused Cruz of using compromising photos of his wife to further his campaign, to which Cruz profusely denied. Naturally, this didn’t satisfy the GOP frontrunner, who then shot back with this tweet:

Was this the secret he was dying to out? We’ll be keeping an eye on his Twitter… you know those comments will be coming any minute now.

Katrina Pierson, a national spokesman for Donald Trump, has been linked to Ted Cruz by The National Enquirer. Although the National Enquirer never outright used Katrina’s name, they did include a pixelated photo that looks identical to Katrina. Since the photo is only available in their newest copy (on newstands now) we can only show you this Tweet of the photo.

Pretty similar, right? If Katrina looks familiar to you, it’s because she’s been on TV a ton. You may even remember that necklace she wore made out of bullets.

The National Enquirer continued on to say that it’s looking into no less than five extramarital affairs that Ted Cruz may or may not have had.

“Private detectives are digging into at least five affairs Ted Cruz supposedly had,” claimed a Washington insider.

“The leaked details are an attempt to destroy what’s left of his White House campaign!”

The ENQUIRER reports that Cruz’s claimed mistresses include a foxy political consultant and a high-placed D.C. attorney!

Ted Cruz Sex Scandal

The National Enquirer just unleashed a MAJOR bombshell on Ted Cruz’s 2016 presidential campaign — the magazine alleged that the GOP presidential hopeful has had five extramarital affairs with various power women in the political scene.

So who are these women? Here are their names, from right to left: Trump spokesperson Katrina Pierson, former Carly Fiorina staffer Sarah Isgur Flores, and former Cruz communications director Amanda Carpenter. Carpenter is married, while Flores and Pierson are not.

Here’s everything you need to know about the women in the middle of this alleged scandal.

Sarah Isgur Flores

Flores served as Carly Fiorina’s deputy campaign manager during her unsuccessful 2016 run for President. According to The Washington Post, a Ted Cruz-affiliated Super PAC, Keep the Promise I donated $500k to Fiorina’s campaign fund in July 2015, an interesting move considering she was one of his many rivals. Since the Enquirer’s allegations, Twitter has suspected that the donation was actually hush money to keep her quiet about the affair.

However, since Fiorina’s taken herself out of the race, she has endorsed Ted Cruz for president. This is all heresy, but it’s definitely an interesting theory.


Katrina Pierson

Katrina Pierson is a spokesperson for Donald Trump. If the allegations are true, this would be a very interesting twist to the story, especially considering her recent Twitter comments:

Cruz and Pierson had worked together in the past when she challenged incumbent Republican Representative Pete Sessions’s seat and was unsuccessful in gaining the nomination. However, the Cruz family praised her highly, calling her a “strict constitutionalist.”


Amanda Carpenter

Amanda Carpenter is a former Ted Cruz communications director and CNN contributor, who previously worked with The Washington Times. In 2013 Carpenter became the communications director for future presidential candidate Ted Cruz, but left the position in July 2015.

 

Sarah Isgur Photos: Must See Pictures of Strategist

Sarah Isgur Flores is believed to be one of the five women involved in the Ted Cruz sex scandal.

Although there’s no outright evidence that proves Sarah (a Republican strategist who used to work for Carly Fiorina) is directly involved with Cruz, pixelated photos published in The National Enquirer have led people to believe it’s Sarah.

Interestingly enough, early in Carly Fiorina’s campaign she received a $500,000 donation from Ted Cruz’s Super PAC: Keep The Promise I. Now people believe that the donation was “hush money” to keep things under wraps.

Again, we have no proof nor do we want to say that Sarah was ever involved with Ted Cruz in any capacity, but the Ted Cruz Sex Scandal is big news today. Check out Sarah’s photos below.

Go Pro College Spring Break Party Cruise

A growing trend among college students is opting to go on a cruise on Spring Break. The upside to cruises is that rather than just going to one destination, Spring Breakers will instead go to multiple cities and countries. Also, partying on a boat. The downside to cruises is that there’s a chance your toilets will stop working or you’ll catch an awful contagious disease–but these problems you’re probably already used to.

So with that being said, check out this amazing Spring Break 2016 recap video of some Florida students who went on the Independence of the Seas cruise to Jamaica and Haiti.

While Jamaica is definitely included on our World’s 20 Trashiest Spring Break Destinations, I honestly had no idea that people went to Haiti for Spring Break. That probably would have been the #1 spot had we known that.

Trans Rights Rap

YouTube

College students have been protesting up a storm lately — if they don’t like something, you’re going to hear about it. This self-proclaimed “concerned Alberta mother” decided to make her opinion known as well, but without a protest. Instead, she opted for a poorly produced rap video that has managed to garner 135,271 views on YouTube.

Her song is called Gender Bender and it’s more cringeworthy than it sounds. From Someecards,

“The “inspired” rap comes after government officials out of Alberta, Canada introduced guidelines to help LGBTQ students feel more comfortable at school. With all the vigor a fed up Canadian could muster, Mom/”rapper” MH Wiebe delivered a performance on par with a nervous third grader presenting a terribly written poem for the class.”

And that’s putting it nicely. Like, way nicer than what I would have said. Not only is her reasoning seriously flawed, but her rap skills are absolute sh*t. Stop rhyming! Stop with that awful background music! And for the love of God, stop posting sh*t to YouTube! There’s enough of that on there!

NBA Players Snapchat Names

Your friends and family aren’t the only ones using Snapchat–more and more NBA players are taking advantage of the personal look that Snapchat gives their brand. Even Lebron James mentioned earlier this week that he would be joining Snapchat.

Deschutes Brewery’s Mirror Pond Pale Ale is What’s on Tap

Deschutes Brewery Mirror Pond Pale Ale Craft Brewing

PerfectlyHappyMan

This week a very popular craft brewery from the west coast made serious headlines when they announced they were expanding and opening an east coast brewing facility. And after reading the news I immediately thought, “I have not had any of their beers in a while so let me go out and grad a case or two.” This weekend Deschutes Brewery’s Mirror Pond Pale Ale is What’s on Tap.

Deschutes is a brewing company that really does one thing well and that is brew great tasting, true to style beers. Basically if any of their beers are on tap, or available, get’em! Mirror Pond is a great alternative to anyone who is looking for subtle IPA flavors but does not want to go all in with an IPA. With its appearance of being more ambery than light golden or hazy yellow, Mirror Pond gives off the impression that it is going to be “heavier” than what one would expect with pale ale. However, the malt and hop aromas of floral and citrus dispels any non-pale-ale notion. Mirror Pond is a somewhat malt forward pale ale but with the subtle cascade hops’ flavors of floraly citrus throughout its certainly well balanced. That finishes very clean and crisp.

With an ABV of only 5% Mirror Pond is a perfect outdoor spring and summer pale ale that is as enjoyable as it is sessionable. This weekend I am pairing Mirrio Pond with grilled Mahi that has a blackened rub to intermingle the spiciness of the rub with citrus flavors of the hops.

Cheers!

Jimmy Fallon Garry Shandling Tribute

Jimmy Fallon paid tribute to the late Garry Shandling last night on the Tonight Show, and it was pretty much Jimmy at his best. He began by noting that the staff learned of Garry’s death “after the show yesterday” — which was actually true, since Jimmy’s the rare hard-working talk show host who’s taping Monday through Friday. Jimmy probably really learned of Garry’s death about two hours before taping the show, but that’s forgivable, considering what he cooked up for Friday.

The thing certainly goes on longer than you’d expect. Jimmy goes to the Tonight Show archives for Garry’s first appearance with Johnny Carson back in 1981, and that’s fun to see. It’s an important moment in Tonight Show history, too, since Garry went on to fill in for Johnny at the host’s desk several times over the years.



Jimmy doesn’t stop there, though. He keeps reminiscing about Garry in the manner of a true fan, and then finally has a big finish by singing the theme to It’s Garry Shandling’s Show from the late comic’s old Showtime series back in the ’80s.

That really was as important a show as you’re hearing on Facebook, and it was probably also the first pay-cable show to ever get picked up to run on network television for a while — thanks to the fledgling folks at FOX needing to fill a half-hour on their Sunday night schedule. Anyway, here’s something really heartfelt and sweet, which you don’t get often on talk shows nowadays…

Rolling Stones Cuba Concert Set List: What The Pope Didn’t Want Played…

Rolling Stone Cuba Set List F

The Rolling Stones played Havana last night for free — and it was just like old times as an authority figure pleaded with the band to show some damn respect. Pope Francis, who’s seven whole years younger than Mick Jagger, asked the band not to perform a rollicking set in Cuba on Good Friday. Instead, the band took to the stage to roaring fans. Mick even addressed the crowd in perfect Spanish, because he’s been picking up babes on an international level since 1964.



And, as seen via the band’s Twitter account, the Stones put together a pretty great set list. They’ve been a real crowd-pleasing live act for decades, but there are really no complaints here for your average Stones fans on any island nation. We’re not sure who requested “All Down the Line,” though. Maybe that was the Pope again. If the band was going to go ahead and play, they might as well do a deep cut from Exile On Main Street, right? That could’ve been something the Pope wanted to hear…

Nicki Minaj Security Guard Video

Nicki Minaj is fierce, alright. Especially when she catches her security in a place like Dubi not paying attention to the crowd during her concerts. Nicki was very unhappy on Friday night when she looked over and saw some Security stooge sitting on the stage and playing Angry Birds (or something) when he should’ve been watching out for terrorists or crazed fans.



So, as captured here, Nicki strode right over and confiscated that phone like a boss. Which she is. Literally, to this guy. So, good for Nicki for stopping a perfectly solid rendition of “Feeling Myself” to go lay down the law to some lazy bastard. We hope she went ballistic after the show, too, and doesn’t give that guard back his phone until the end of the school year…

New Movie Trailers: ‘The Nice Guys,’‘The Lego Batman Movie,’ And More… [VIDEOS]

Lego Batman Movie Trailer

Batman v. Superman is the big deal this weekend, but we saw it early enough to get a lot more excited about another Batman movie trailer this week. A few more movies also came bounding out to get us convinced that 2016 might be the year to skip a few big-budget epics and consider checking out some more unexpected pleasures. Take a look at a few films that are coming out that won’t get massive pushes, but deserve your attention now….


The LEGO Batman Movie

Yeah, we weren’t expecting The LEGO Movie to be one of the best pictures of 2014, but plenty of young adults and grown men were soon checking out what could’ve been a kiddie franchise. Now we’re getting that same grown-up mindset in The LEGO Batman Movie — with Will Arnett back as Batman’s growling voice, and a first trailer that promises as many weird twists as the first LEGO production…..


The Nice Guys

Here’s our second look at Ryan Gosling and Russell Crowe as, respectively, a lowlife private eye and a cheap thug in a ’70s-set throwback. We mean it’s a throwback to many actual films of the ’70s. Writer/director Shane Black may be best known as a hero of ’80s action, but he’s really working a good vibe in this tale of two losers investigating a dead porn star. This really does feel like a film that would’ve starred Elliott Gould and George Segal back in the day…..


War Dogs

The gun-running film Arms and the Dudes gets a name change with this new trailer — probably because the studio figured no one would appreciate the classical reference in this new movie from Hangover director Todd Phillips. The movie’s based on the true story of two twentysomethings who ended making big money during the Iraq War by supplying guns to the Afghan military. Then, not surprisingly, things got crazy.  Jonah Hill and Miles Teller star, and that should really work. You’re not supposed to like these douches…


Altar

And here’s a cheap found-footage horror movie that has us unexpectedly freaked out. Altar is about some old college buddies who get together for a weekend that gets really creepy. It’s the kind of film that we keep hoping to find in those budget multiple-DVD boxes that we keep buying in the cheap bins because we still have a DVD player and we keep hoping for more movies like Altar — or at least movies that have enough moments to put together a trailer like this…


George W. Bush In Most Millennial TwitPic Ever — Goes Downhill From There….

Bush Did 911 Twitter F

We have firsthand knowledge here at COED of how tough it is to be on the cutting edge of Millennial humor. Still, we’re saluting the lovely lady whose privacy we’ll respect by just calling Leisa — who, as her Twitter handle of “LeisaIsCool” acknowledges, is definitely cool. She served a former President and his wife, grabbed a pic, posted it via Twitter, and dropped the mic with a hilarious caption that transcends political beliefs…

Bush Did 911 Twitter

Yeah. That’s funny across the board. But then things got complicated for Leisa — who suddenly found herself catching flack from people who were convinced that she had unintentionally made The Most Millennial TwitPic Ever.

Suddenly, Leisa was getting hit by media requests — at least one of which was pretty transparent in its real goal. “Hey, let’s talk about waiting on an ex-President” is creepy journa talk for, “Hey, let’s talk about your Bush/911 conspiracy theories and try to make the former POTUS look bad.” Leisa finally had to speak out before taking a well-deserved break from social media…

Bush Twitter PSA

 

Yeah, Leisa, we know. Sorry that others didn’t appreciate the gag. And if you’re a journalism student, check in with COED Media Group sometime. We like your style.
