This week we were joined by our pals Matt Stopera and Jack Shepherd, editors at internet behemoth BuzzFeed, to talk Barbie cam, TMZ and a new photobomb meme, Cigar Guy.Our tl;dr quiz guest this week was Robin, a lovely gal from Oakland, California who on her own time created two amazing blogs (links below).
After presenting amazing video of Matt getting caught on TMZ (no, seriously) using the Barbie Video Girl, we got down to brass tacks and talked at length about Rupesh Shingadia, a dude who became a meme extraordinaire after standing out in a widely-circulated photo of Tiger Woods hitting a golf ball at the Ryder Cup.
