The employees of an estate agency in Maryland had an unforgettable Christmas party this December when their boss decided to reward all 198 workers with $10 million to split, based on how long they had worked at the agency. The bonuses ranged from $100 to $270,000, with the average bonus around $50,000. The reactions of the employees was priceless and filled us with a warm fuzzy feeling. Watch the whole YouTube video of the event here, but get the tissues ready because seeing pure happiness like that won't fail to make you bawl. If you want to cry from cuteness, check out this cat that is Baby Yoda lookalike. Aw.

We all know that there's high comedic value in fails. Especially when the things that are failing are not meant to fail... like robots. Simone Gietrz makes robots that have potential but were never really meant to succeed, and watching Simone "use" them will make you laugh harder than anything else you have seen today. Promise. You should probably just watch all of her hilarious videos on her YouTube channel. If you like to watch things exploding, check out NASA's test megarocket fuel tank exploding with liquid nitrogen. It's pretty cool.

If not, they're still great to look at. Have a peep.

Apple has a habit of making products that look like everyday household items, but do not act like them. In the latest installment, Apple has released a new Mac Pro that nods to it's past designs, except for one very noticeable feature: it has a cheese grater on the front.
