Five brave workers decide to record themselves simultaneously at their office doing something...unthinkable...

The Poptimist I'm no Martha Stewart fan, but I can definitely get on board with the idea of making cookies.... in 90 seconds... WITH A WAFFLE IRON. Pretty cool.

David Seger of Channel 101 secretly shot an entire online series (I count 4 episodes so far) inside the Burbank Ikea without the store’s knowledge. How fun is that? Well done.

Harry, I’m gonna let you in on a little secret. Every day, once a day, give yourself a present. Don’t plan it, don’t wait for it, just…let it happen. Could be a new shirt at the men’s store, a catnap in your office chair, or two cups of good, hot, black coffee.
