Manny the cat might not have a glam squad or a reality TV show, but he still gives the Kardashian-Jenners a run for their money.

Why? Well, his selfie game is 100% on point.

Manny's owner, Instagram user @yoremahm, has a collection of GoPro cameras which the cute feline is apparently "fascinated" by.

So much so that he can't resist reaching out and pushing the buttons every once in a while, resulting in a hilarious collection of cat selfies, often featuring Manny's pals – a motley crew of dogs.

"He is the boss of the dogs," Manny's owner told per site Love Meow. 

Amazing.

Here are a few of his best snaps:

 

 

Loving your work, Manny.

We all know we go to ridiculous lengths to get a good Instagram photo. 

But sometimes our boyfriends and husbands are behind those IG photos, and unfortunately for them (but very fortunate for us), they have come to the realisation that they are, indeed, the Instagram Husband. 

They are our human selfie sticks (because their arms are waaay longer than ours) and they're totally cool with waiting to eat their food just so we can take a good photo for IG. 

A new gas video by The Mystery Hour has been released about the men behind the filter and in its mockumentary style, it's certainly worth a watch:

Ruairi McSorley became an internet sensation after he was interviewed in January during a particularly cold morning in his native Derry.

His line: “You wouldn’t be long getting frostbit” was repeated up and down the country (and further afield) for months after his TV appearance. Now, he is back and better than ever.

It seems that Ruairi has relocated to Connemara to study media and Irish. To nobody’s surprise, he had been told many times that a career in media would be in his future.

Naturally, he’s decided to make a go of it, and with his latest interview as Gaeilge we foresee a bright future.

As for the local scene in Co. Galway; the “sean-nos” dancing is not exactly his favourite way to spend a Saturday night.

However, he does say “is maith liom an jiving”. Please, someone consider an entire series of videos of Ruair’s jiving adventures. It is the reality series we desperately need.

Does he have any plans if a career in media doesn’t work out?

“There’ll be turf to cut somewhere.”

Ah yes, we are all familiar with the feeling when mammy is on the way home and you remember you haven't taken that chicken out of the freezer. 

Oops. 

It is exactly this time of year when that feeling kicks into high gear. Not just because of the forgotten pile of ironing with your name on it. Remember how it felt around the house when the visitors were coming?

OUR NERVES! They would be at you for fear you would eat something from the fridge that was exclusively for the visitors arriving on St. Stephen's Day. 

Oh and good luck to you if you traipsed into the 'good room' with your mildly dirty shoes on. 

This video pretty much perfectly captures the stress of it all, and it is hilarious:

One of the many things an Irish person living abroad will come to realise (aside from how nobody seems to be able to comprehend the pronunciation of 'Caoimhe'), is our sarcasm can get us into trouble. 

Our unconscious obsession with irony can often lead to some unfortunate miscommunications and misunderstandings. 

Foil Arms and Hog have managed to sum up pretty much all of these awkward encounters in their latest video, and we love it. 

We recommend using this video as an explanation the next time the cousins from America come to visit and need help understanding what exactly the craic is all about.

As a general rule, for every fashion forward blogger we follow on Instagram we must balance things out with any account involving pugs, cats, or delicious food.

So naturally, when we stumbled across @berkavitch we were absolutely delighted. It is comedy gold. 

Also, it features cats. Many cats.

All of which are mostly one shape and size, but that is in fact what makes it so fantastic. 

Let us all take a moment to appreciate the expression on that feline's face. It is the face you make when you wake up and look at all the texts you sent the night before. 

John Berkavitch is described as a “Rapper, vandal, educator and surrealist” on his website. He is also a “human beatbox”.

Last year his gig in Edinburgh featured “three breakdancers with umbrellas who stand in as Berkavitch's subconscious and sometimes his conscience.” 

His Slam Poetry champion has toured across the world at literary festivals.

John also managed to find the time in between all of these appearances (which included a TEDx talk) to discover his other passion. Photographing giant cats from around the world.

Ok fine, these are not actually super-sized cats, more like a nifty camera trick. 

He uses the hashtag #MeAndCats, so now you know what to look for the next time you’re in the market for some giant cat pictures. 

We did wonder though, are these cats really giant cats or is John just a very tall man?

While we were unable to get an measure of John's height, it is safe to say these cats are probably not cat-giant hybrids. 

One time he held kittens and made us question everything.

However, his website also has the complete collection of his cat photos, to be found in the section cleverly titled ‘Me and Cats’. 

He describes it, quite neatly as “basically me and various cats from around the world.”

A description that hides the true majesty to found hiding in the #MeAndCats collection. Just look at that fetching manbun and ginger cat ensemble.

We are in support of pretty much anything festive these days. November is a month filled with the promise of tinsel, giant Christmas trees and matching jumpers for the whole family (including Rover the puppy). 

We cannot wait to see what happens when December arrives. 

However, a certain lunch item that is claiming to be exactly what we would expect when it comes to festive desserts has sent the internet into meltdown.

Tesco is selling an Everyday Value Chocolate and Cherry Mascarpone Christmas sandwich on cinnamon bread and no one seems to be able to deal with this news.

A picture of the new meal deal item was shared on Sh*t London’s Facebook page by Londoner Nic Branch who captioned the image: ‘More gold at Tesco’. Since then people have been taking serious issue with the sandwich. 

‘Chocolate and cherry sandwiches? Has the world gone mad?’ asked Jane Craigie-Payne.

 

Others legitimately questioned the cherry content. Tesco seemed to be able to have a laugh about all the fuss:

Luckily, Metro were able to speak with someone who had actually tried the interesting foodie concoction. Seb Budd explained:

“The first few bites were actually OK. The cinnamon bread was a nice touch but after a few more mouthfuls I soon began to realise that this is the sort of sandwich you’d buy to tell someone you really don’t like them.”

Oh?

Seb must not be a mascarpone fan then, but we feel like this might be something that we need to taste-test for ourselves to be absolutely certain.

Not all of us have grown up with the amount of gadgets that exist today. To be honest, sometimes even our smartphones get the best of us from time to time. 

So, when Evan Griffin gave his dad Joe a loan of his GoPro for his trip to Vegas it was almost a certainty that hilarity would ensue. Evan wrote on Facebook:

"So… Gave my Dad my GoPro while he was in Las Vegas, I did not, however, instruct him on how to use it, so my dad being my dad, and a culchie, didn't know which way to point the f**king thing." 

The video has since gone viral. It would seem that almost everyone on the internet finds Joe's Vegas adventures as hilarious as we all did. Aren't we lucky that Evan quickly edited and uploaded the video to his YouTube channel.

While we considered Joe to be an almost expert-level tour guide we don’t imagine he is going to be too pleased with his up close and personal holiday video. 

"Isn't that lovely?" he asks, and like a panto crowd we responded.

However, that does not take away from the absolute hilarity of Joe’s adventures. He rode the monorail, visited the nicest of hotels and (we hope) eventually discovered where the Grand Canyon is located.

His commentary throughout the trip is also top-notch.

Kelsey and Mia are two girls who know exactly what they want for Christmas this year.

The BFFs (although that status is up for debate right now), will appear on TV3’s Toy Show and in a preview of the 1 hour special, the pair were asked what they wanted Santa to bring.

They were left feeling a little put out when they realised they both wanted the same gift: Kyle. 

Kyle Howey is the mini-heart throb who has managed to steal the hearts of the two besties. Needless to say, the battle for Kyle’s affections proved to bring some serious sass from the duo.

“Santa’s going to go to his house, get dust and sprinkle it over his head and then he’s going to think about me,” said Kelsey. 

Mia wasn’t going down without a fight though, and her comebacks are probably the funniest thing you’ll hear today.

Meanwhile, Kyle seems to be less than enthused with the girl’s affections:

“They do be fighting over me. They do be all over me trying to hug me,” he said. 

TV3 will air TV3 Toy Show Auditions on Friday at 8PM.

The dark lip trend is one that we don’t see disappearing any time soon. Which is completely fine for anyone who calls themselves a fan.

For every pretty pink or creamy nude out there, there’s going to be even more vampy shades to choose from. There is something so very glam about the dark lip look. 

However, a statement bold lip also comes with some less then appealing flawless side effects.

1. Straws are very necessary: 

Well, you can do without them. But then you'll end up with an unintentional ombré effect. Also, no one really wants to leave the Granny-esque kiss marks on every single glass in existence.

2. Falling asleep in makeup means waking up with a red polka dot pillowcase. 

Just another item to add to the washing pile.

3. You have to exfoliate your lips. Every. Single. Night. 

If you’re constantly wearing highly pigmented lipstick then you're probably familiar with the old toothbrush and lip balm exfoliating trick.

4. The accidental over line: 

However, Kylie Jenner has made this a non-problem, the oversized out is pretty much a beauty phenomenon.

5. Attempting to rock a cute and tiny clutch is never an option: 

You need your lip liner, lipstick and a compact. Who needs keys these days anyway?

6. If you don't wear it one day, everyone notices: 

“You look a bit different today, am I right?” This is because they're so used to you looking like a boss with your amazing lipstick.

Roberta Bernardo is a 19-year old student from Brazil. She is also now something of an internet celebrity since her adventures with her best friend have gone viral.

So, Roberta and her BFF do pretty much everything that your usual besties do. They hang out, eat snacks and enjoy some fabulous fashion. 

The reason their friendship has gone viral is because Roberta’s new pal is not actually human. She’s not even a pet. She’s a potato, named Potato- obviously.

“She looked like a little baby with little arms,” Roberta told BuzzFeed Brazil. 

Roberta took it upon herself to bring Potato home, and made her a very important part of her life.

She gave her a total makeover and the two spent some quality time bonding over contouring and hair accessories.

When she shared her story on Facebook, the internet couldn’t get enough of the pair. 

So Bernardo took her home and gave her a bath.

When asked how Potato was handling her newfound internet fame, Rpberta said Potato was currently in the fridge so she wouldn’t rot. Good looking out, Roberta.

What could possibly be next for the pair?

“Life is ephemeral,” Bernardo said. “I believe she will live these moments as if they were the last, enjoying the laurels of fame.” 

In the meantime, Potato seems to be enjoying a very luxe lifestyle. Her newfound internat fame may have possibly influence her style, possibly.

Today we heard that Politics and Society will be introduced to the Leaving Cert syllabus next year.

The subject will taught at 25 schools around the country from September 2016, according to The Irish Times. Students will be learning about power and decision making on a local and global scale. 

Interesting? Possibly. However, this news gave us serious flashbacks to the night before the dreaded exams and the pressure of trying to remember all of the exact details involving in ox bow lake formation.

Then we realised that there are some subjects that maybe should have been included in the syllabus long ago. 

1. How on earth you should tackle doing 'the big shop': 

The aisles are packed with tasty snacks! What's the difference between shallots and red onions? Where do we find the good quality beef? People have questions.

2. How to survive your first real job: 

Are casual Fridays an urban legend or no?

3. How to handle a break-up like a damn adult: 

A practical exam that tests your ability to not send a regrettable text at 4 in the morning. 

4. The fine art of entertaining: 

House parties are fantastic. However, sometimes people actually expect a sit-down meal, at a real table, madness. 

5. How to find a place to live: 

College accommodation won't be there forever, and Sex And The City gave us unrealistic expectations about city living.

6. How to adopt a somewhat healthy lifestyle: 

Red Bull and Pot Noodles will only get us so far. 

7. Time Management: 

Falling asleep at your desk is very much frowned up in the land of the adults. So it would be best to know when it is not a good time to stay up until the crack of dawn watching Netflix.

How to be responsible on social media: 

For that moment when you're 57 weeks into your ex-boyfriend's brother's housemate's cousin's BFFs Instagram account. Oops.
