In case you missed it -- Disney bought Lucasfilm for $4 billion dollars. They also own Marvel now too. To put it in other words, all that stuff you liked as a kid to prove you're not a girl is now owned by the people who made 'Beauty and the Beast.' (On the bright side, the next 'Kingdom Hearts' game could be totally sick.) Of course, not everybody is looking on the bright side. Some of them are making memes. Here are our favorites.

Truthfully, we missed most of Hurricane Sandy, the storm that rocked most of the East Coast, yesterday. Because we were inside ... away from the windows, with our curtains closed ... like we were supposed to be. These people weren't, however, so now we can see what was going on outside while we were playing board games with our fingers crossed. Here is some crazy video from yesterday's storm.

As predicted, Hurricane Sandy created one crazy night. Millions without power, explosions, flooding and at least 18 people dead. Don't let your braggedy friends on Facebook convince you this wasn't a big deal. It was crazy. Here are some pics to sum up what happened. Feel free to share your photos in the comments.

Hey there, how's it going? Maybe you're nestled up all snuggly someplace far, far away from the Eastern seaboard, with nary a worry on your mind. The rest of us our bracing ourselves for Frankenstorm AKA The Snowicane AKA Hurricane Sandy. Since it's pretty much all we can think about, here are our favorite memes on the subject. (Yes, many involve Sandra Dee puns.) Because how many weather reports can you really read?

To celebrate the release of one of our favorite blogs-turned-books, 'Underwater Dogs,' here are some pictures that helped bring photographer Seth Casteel such great success. If you love them, you can find more in his book, which is available here and makes for much better conversation than your current coffee table book, 'Our Bodies, Ourselves.'

It takes a lot to upstage the President of the United States in a photograph, but these grade school kids have done it. We're not the only ones who think so. Even the president himself (or at least his Twitter account) labeled this the "picture of the day." We're pretty sure it's not because of the kid who's trying to eat his shirt. Or the way the president isn't looking at the camera either. Can you guess why?

We're about to insist that Tom Hanks stop being so awesome. It's getting out of hand. From hilarious pictures with strangers to amazing storytelling, he's getting to be too much. And now this. Hanks went

This could be the best thing that's happened to us today. We found a new Subreddit (courtesy of Daily Dot) dedicated solely to the moments in infomercials when people can't do simple things everybody else can do.

You GUYS! It's almost Halloween! We sincerely love Halloween around here, in case you hadn't noticed. Here's one way we've been getting into the spirit of the season -- awesome Halloween light shows. Some of them are more traditional ('The Haunted Manion,' 'Monster Mash'), whereas other are scary in a more timely way -- what could be more terrifying than a giant light-up neon pumpkin singing 'Call Me Maybe'?

We've seen a lot of incarnations of Psy's 'Gangnam Style.' Even still, we never predicted we would see the song in spooky Halloween light show form.

The window washers at Le Bonheur Children's Hospital in Memphis, TN, kind of make 'Patch Adams' seem like a big old meany. Two of the hospital's three-man window washing team dressed up like Spider-Man, and then rappelled down the side of the building, lifting childrens' spirits while cleaning windows. But yeah, a clown nose is good too.
