A new study suggests that exposing heterosexual men to pornography increases the likelihood that they'll support gay marriage.

A new scholarly analysis suggests that the more straight guys, especially those who are less educated, watch pornographic videos, the more they warm to same-sex marriage. The reason: Porn opens their mind up to accepting non-traditional sexual situations, like gay sex.

The authors used studies of approximately 500 straight guys over the past six years that were funded by the National Science Foundation . Their findings were published in the Communication Research journal. They also speculate that the popularity of lesbian pornography helps warm the heterosexual men to the idea of same-sex marriage.

Will Ferrell starred in a Super Bowl commercial for Old Milwaukee that you surely missed, unless you live in Sherman, Texas, Ardmore, Oklahoma, or Glendive, Montana. The spot—which only aired in those three small towns—features a heavily mustachioed Ferrell playing tonsil hockey with an older woman on a bus. That's it. Seriously, that's the commercial.

Woo hoo this is a good one, you guys. Cops tried to stop a man driving in California after they suspected him of driving under the influence. The guy led L.A.P.D. officers on a slow-speed chase for 10 minutes. Then—with a spike strip tangled underneath his car—the man proceeded to fill up balloons in his vehicle and inhale the contents repeatedly as police surrounded him. Eventually, officers swarmed the car and placed the man under arrest, but not before "whippit standoff" became a thing that exists. Happy Friday, everyone. [NBCLA]

Have you ever secretly wondered which of your friends and co-workers would be interested in seeing you in a more, ahem, intimate situation, but were too nervous, shy, or concerned about the potentially negative consequences to do anything about it? Well, you're in luck because Bang With Professionals and Bang With Friends are coming to your rescue.

The apps allow you to select which of your Facebook friends and LinkedIn connections you would be DTF. Your selections are confidential, unless you and a friend or co-worker are mutually DTF, in which case you'll both get and email notifying you that it's on like Donkey Kong. The creators of Bang With Friends spoke with The Daily Beast about their monster site.

“We’ll be honest with you, we made this in two hours… with a lot of Red Bull and vodka … and it took off on its own,” one of the creators said. “What we’re working on right now is building sexual preferences. I personally am completely towards gay rights. We want to give everyone this awesome access to finding people who want to bang.”

Hall of Fame basketballer and accomplished thespian Kareem Abdul-Jabbar has finally weighed in on the HBO series Girls (for The Huffington Post), rendering all other opinions of the show entirely irrelevant. America's greatest television critic and "star" of the "Hi Mom" episode of 21 Jump Street back in 1990 goes out on a limb and rips into Dunham's show for its attempt to diversify the show in Season 2.

He writes (probably with a caligraphy pen because he's fancy and well-trained in all forms of art):

This season that white ghetto was breached by a black character who is introduced as some jungle fever lover, with just enough screen time to have sex and mutter a couple of lines about wanting more of a relationship. A black dildo would have sufficed and cost less.

Blistering cold, a perpetual blizzard, and only five hours of daylight—that's what the Game of Thrones folks have to work with while they're filming Season 3 in Iceland.

In this video released by HBO, the actors and creators gush about Iceland's beauty. They're using the Icelandic landscape as their 'place beyond the wall.' The actors actually have to huddle up for warmth between takes, there are actually icicles in their beards, and they're actually freezing their asses off. Art, folks—they're doing it. [Wired]

A 23-year-old high school math teacher in Aurora, Colorado has made her administrators none to happy after she tweeted a topless photo of herself to popular DJ, Diplo (Philly, shoutout). The photo shows Carly McKinney—known from here on out as "CrunkBear"—upside down with her feet against a wall wearing nothing but panties. If you're old, it may be helpful to know that this is called "twerking." Don't ask. Well, okay, if you must:

Hell hath no fury like a fired employee. HMV—a London-based entertainment retailer—entered a form of bankruptcy protection earlier this month. On Thursday, the company fired 190 employees. The world learned of the layoffs when an HMV employee live-tweeted the firing from the company's verified account with messages like, "we're tweeting live from HR where we're all being fired! Exciting!!"

The tweets continued as the employee ranted about the state of things at HMV, divulged that the Twitter accounts had been set up by an unpaid intern, and announced that a marketing director was scrambling to figure out how to shut the accounts down as the fired employee was tweeting because of course the brass didn't think about that before telling everyone they were unemployed.

Twitter crashed this morning and it's all David Beckham's fault. If you tried to access Twitter on Thursday morning, you were greeted with this lovely landing page.

This message popped up at nearly the exact instant that David Beckham emerged from a Paris doctor's office and news broke that he had reached a deal to take his talents to Paris Saint-Germain. Coincidence? I think not. When Twitter came back, the top trend was #PSG.
