Even though Fridays make everyone happy because it's finally the end of the week, they can also be totally depressing because 1) you still have to make 'til the end of the work day and 2) it's the end of the week. That's okay, friends. I have two pieces of news that ought to bring you cheer.

1. Sticky
   There is a Canadian goose evading the capture attempts of park authorities in Prospect Park, NYC. Why are they trying to capture Sticky? Because he's got an arrow through his neck.

No wonder we love those geese.

You may recall the glorious day when I linked to the Slapsgiving song for no particular reason last February (okay, there was a reason, but that's unimportant now). Last night's How I Met Your Mother was a Slapsgiving redux, and, while it's generally agreed that it wasn't quite as awesome as the first time around, it did include the Slapsgiving song re-imagined as a commercial jingle for one of Lily's dad's crappy board games. Only, tbh, I would totally want to find a Slap Bet board game under the tree. Watch it after the jump!
