Good Times...
The Most Dubious Moments of 2011
2011: huge year. Gaddafi's regime fell. Bin Laden met his demise. ScarJo's personal pics landed on the Internet. Today, a quick look back...
 
 
UD - Rebecca Black Is Stoked It's  
MARCH 14
Rebecca Black Is Stoked It's "Friday"
 
In 1911, Ezra Pound published Canzoni. In 2011, Rebecca Black gave us "Friday," an auto-tuned YouTube classic from the daughter of a multimillionaire. It's an irrepressible celebration of the final day of the workweek. Also: a possible sign of the apocalypse.

 
UD - A Real-Life Weekend at Bernie's  
AUGUST 27
A Real-Life Weekend at Bernie's
 
It's the eternal question: what happens when we shed our mortal coils. Well, if you're this guy, you get propped up in a car by your two best friends, who then use your ATM card to finance an evening of booze, strippers and Mexican feasts. Sadly, Andrew McCarthy wasn't involved.

 
UD - ScarJo's Personal Photos Leak  
SEPTEMBER 14
ScarJo's Personal Photos Leak
 
If there's anything you've learned (sometimes the hard way), anyone's racy phone photos can turn up on the Internet. To the delight of almost everyone, that included Scarlett Johansson's. Fortunately, the FBI tracked down the awful, deplorable, vile hacker responsible.

 
UD - Tebowing Was a Thing  
OCTOBER 27
Tebowing Was a Thing
 
First, there was planking. Owling: thanks for playing. And then, someone—probably the Lord—said, "Let there be Tebowing." After that, people were taking knees and taking photos everywhere in celebration of the soon-to-be Super Bowl MVP and likely future president of the United States. Just embrace it.

 
UD - Nic Cage on a Serbian Biology Textbook  
NOVEMBER 26
Nic Cage on a Serbian Biology Textbook
 
In what was surely one of the top three Serbian biology stories of 2011, a Raising Arizona–era Nicolas Cage made his debut (we assume) on the cover of an eighth-grade textbook for Serbian biology students. At least it wasn't Ghost Rider–era Cage.

Baby, it's the weekend outside.

PERK ALERT
Bubbly and a Pork Feast
 
There's a small annual celebration coming, so we're hooking you up with some relief for the morning after. Plus: a variety of bubblies and wines for 56% off and an exclusive invite to a nose-to-tail celebration of all things pork. Happy new year...

UD - Opening Your Champagne the Hard Way  
SABER RATTLING
Opening Your Champagne the Hard Way
 
Any clown or Super Bowl champion can pop open a bottle of champagne. Not you—you're going to slice the top off with a sword made from Damascus steel. This sword, in fact—the world's most expensive. It's a rousing start to your resolution to be more samurai in 2012.
 
411:
Henry Tuke Champagne Saber, slice off some bubbly here
 
UD - Making Your Party Louder  
BRING THE NOISE
Making Your Party Louder
 
Noisemakers. Designed to create sounds that are only welcome or even tolerable on the final night of the year. These vintage ones are your play. Because today's noise just isn't the same.

Vintage Noisemakers, make some noise here
 
UD - The Latest in Corkscrewing  
SCREW IT
The Latest in Corkscrewing
 
Before things take a turn for the bubbly, you might want to crack open a bottle of red. Or a bottle of white (whatever kind of mood you're in tonight). This corkscrew has the same gears you've got in your automatic transmission. Yes, it's totally necessary.
 
411:
Planetary Gears Corkscrew, crank open the wine here
 
UD - A Detonator for Your Fireworks  
FIRE STARTER
A Detonator for Your Fireworks
 
You've got two good hands. And you aim to keep it that way. So you'll set off any NYE fireworks with this remote control system. Just clip the little clips onto the fuse, step back about 80 feet and press the launch button. Then prep for "oohs" and "aahs."
 
411:
Remote Firework Launcher, light up the 2012 sky here
 
UD - Counting the Hours with Total Precision  
FINAL COUNTDOWN
Counting the Hours with Total Precision
 
You can't be expected to always know what time it is. And subtraction: save it for mathematicians. So this app counts down the exact number of seconds until New Year's strikes wherever you and your iPad are. Your move, Seacrest.
 
411:
Seconds to New Year, run out the clock here
