11 Unusual Alcohols You Could Be Drinking

Sick of rum and cokes or PBR? These options will spice up your next party (or your next Monday night).

Baijiu

What is it?: Baijiu is a Chinese liquor usually made of sorghum. It typically runs between 40 and 60 percent ABV and is definitely an acquired taste – people often refer to it as "The White Devil."

Where have you heard of it? Moutai, one of the largest manufacturers of the stuff, came under fire last year for both a contamination scandal and the high price of the baijiu it sells. The latter is largely due to the drink's popularity among government officials, which jacks up the cost.

Where can you get it? Baijiu is tricky to find in the U.S. because of import laws and the lack of an established market here, though manufacturers are trying to change that. Your best bet is heading to a Chinatown in your nearest city.

Malört

What is it? Jeppson's Malört is described as a Swedish-Style Brännvin, or a wormwood liqueur (what absinthe is made of). Though it's been around for almost a century, only recently has it gained popularity, despite its bitter taste.

Where have you heard of it? Perhaps on this very site!

Where can you get it? Though only manufactured in Chicago, out-of-towners can buy it online.

Pretty! Young adults in Japan celebrate their traditional coming-of-age amidst the country's first major winter storm.

Image by Issei Kato / Reuters

On a day of heavy snow that halted trains and grounded airplanes around the country, young men and women across Japan gathered to celebrate Coming of Age Day, a national holiday marking their transition into adulthood.

Coming of Age Day is held on the second Monday of January to honor those who have turned 20 or will turn 20 in the upcoming year. The ceremonies are held in city halls or other government buildings, where officials will congratulate the new adults, brief them on their responsibilities and present them with a small gift. Young women customarily wear long-sleeved formal kimono known as furisode and lacquered zori sandals while men wear their first business suits.

The first winter storm of the season dumped snow across eastern Japan today, prompting the country's meteorological agency to issue a snow and gale warning for Tokyo and surrounding suburbs. In spite of the rough weather, many soon-to-be new adults set off for their ceremonies in the snow. "I've looked forward to to this day since I've been in elementary school," 20 year-old Asami Nakano told the Asahi Shumbun. "Right now I'm cold and my feet are wet, but I vowed that nothing would stop me from attending."

The storm brought traffic around Tokyo to a standstill.

Literally? That story and more in today's CelebFeed Gossip Roundup!

Bradley Cooper shot down rumors of a romance with Jennifer Lawrence, saying: "If it didn't happen by now, it's not gonna happen. I could literally be her father." WHATEVER GUYS IT WOULD BE MAGICAL.

Ryan Gosling took a little time to discus his muscles. Try to contain yourself:

"Anyone can get those if they work at it. It's just a lot of exercising. And it's really quite pointless, because you go to a gym and you lift a heavy thing so a muscle grows, but the only thing the muscle can actually do is to lift that heavy thing.

After a while they're like pets because they don't do anything useful. But you have to feed them and take care of them otherwise they'll go away. I feel a bit goofy having them, to tell you the truth."

Here comes another sports-inspired photo trend.

I use quotes because he had a facemask on so he really just brought his bicep to his mask, but it looked like he was kissing it.

TV Characters We're Supposed To Love Hating, But Really Just Hate

0
0

TV villains are usually a delight to watch, but sometimes they miss the mark. Here are characters we ended up wishing would just go away.

Ellis from "Smash"

Ellis from "Smash"

A show like Smash needs conniving backstabbers to keep things interesting, but Ellis was anything but. His biggest misdeed was homicidal — trying to poison Uma Thurman with a peanut-laden smoothie — and it was still too stupid to be taken seriously. Thankfully, he has been written off the show, along with the rest of Smash's dead weight.

Faye Resnick from "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills"

Faye Resnick from "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills"

We've already been over why real-life villain Faye Resnick is the absolute worst, so why is Bravo giving her more and more screentime? She's not nearly as engaging as Season 1 villain Camille — since redeemed as St. Camille — and she's not even as charmingly insane as medium Allison DuBois. Ever since she decided to pick a fight with Brandi, she's become irredeemable.

Image by Bravo

Meg from "Supernatural"

Meg from "Supernatural"

I've got no beef with the O.G. Meg Masters — or rather, the demon that possessed her. But that demon has since possessed the body of a much worse actress. Now whenever she pops up on Supernatural to tussle with the Winchesters, she's an unwelcome addition. Bring back Ruby. (Katie Cassidy Ruby, obviously. Accept no substitutes.)

Taylor Doose from "Gilmore Girls"

Taylor Doose from "Gilmore Girls"

Ugh, Taylor Doose, the embodiment of small-town politics and useless bureaucracy. He's supposed to be the lovable thorn in Lorelai's side, but he's actually just awful. Then again, basically everyone in Stars Hollow was a pain in the ass — any chance we could live there with just Rory, Lorelai, and Luke? Send Taylor (and all the other busybodies) far, far away.

The 15 Best Forgotten MTV Shows

0
0

Basically, proof that everything on MTV went downhill after 2004.

Rich Girls, 2003-2004

Quite possibly MTV's greatest work, featuring a teenage Ally Hilfiger and her best friend. Uncovered the existential crisis that came with being unfathomably wealthy and included such philosophical debates as "save a life or buy a pair of shoes?"

Singled Out, 1995-1998

Against all my feminist instincts, here is my official plea to MTV to bring back this blind date show, originally hosted by Chris Hardwick (swoon!) and Jenny McCarthy. Basically, you were guaranteed to meet the love of your life and all you had to do was kick out all the stupid, unfortunately endowed guys with weird facial hair.

Alternative Nation, 1992-1997

Kind of like the original TRL without the audience; way cooler 'cause of this cool chick, Kennedy, who hosted.

The Ben Stiller Show, 1992-1993

Although this switched networks after the first season, there's pure gold in Stiller's comedy show which featured your favorite musicians acting silly and sketches like "Skank Goes Blind," "Dead Head Insurance Salesman," and "Mohican Master 2000 & Jazzercise With Wolves."

If America Had A Death Star...

Australian Smurf Gang Arrested After Monthlong Smurf Hunt

Four men dressed as Smurfs were arrested in relation to an assault last month. This is not smurftastic behavior.

Smurf Hunt
Wednesday, 09 January 2013

Police wish to speak to Papa Smurf and three of his compatriots following an alleged assault which occurred in Pascoe Vale on 16 December last year.

Investigators have been told that a 37-year-old Pascoe Vale man attended a convenience store at the intersection of West and Pascoe streets around 1am to buy cigarettes.

When he left the store he was approached by a man dressed as a Smurf who asked for a cigarette.

The Pascoe Vale man offered the Smurf a cigarette but the Smurf demanded that the victim light the smoke before handing it over.

The man refused and noticed that the Smurf was in the company of three other Smurfs.

They appeared to be trying to jump start a white VS Commodore and had asked for assistance from a woman in the car park.

Investigators believe that the Pascoe Vale man was then assaulted.

Police are yet to determine the exact circumstances surrounding the assault but believe that the Smurfs may be able to provide vital information in relation to the incident.

Exclusive Look At Roman Coppola's "A Glimpse In The Mind Of Charles Swan III"

Four “cinemagraphs” provide a peek into the new comedy starring Charlie Sheen and Bill Murray.

Roman Coppola's new comedy, A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III, which opens on February 8th (but is already available for VOD) has the signs of buzzability written all over it. The film stars Charlie Sheen, in his first film role since the unfortunate events. Playing the title character, the part of a man caught in a "downward spiral of doubt, confusion and reflection" is perhaps not such a stretch for one of Tigerblood. The movie also features indie icons Bill Murray and Jason Schwarztman and Patricia Arquette as the Sheen's friends and confidants.

Below are four "cinemagraphs" available exclusively on BuzzFeed, featuring glimpses into Charles Swan III's apparently troubled very mind.
