As an elder millennial, the Powerpuff Girls,  were nearly as popular as the Spice Girls. Just like every group of friends had its own Baby Spice or Scary Spice, every group of girls had its own Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup. The tough trio's antics and ass-kicking nurtured plenty of lifelong fans who look back fondly on the animated series. But while the nostalgia is pleasant, we can speak for ourselves when we say we never thought a live action version of the show was necessary, or even desired. 

It turns out the CW felt differently. And now, thanks to a leaked script, we can officially say that the internet agrees: we do not need a live action Powerpuff Girls show. And judging by the off-the-chart cringe of the leaks, we definitely don't need one that involves Juno's Diablo Cody.

The script leaks for this Powerpuff Girls reboot are the worst thing I've read this month pic.twitter.com/I7CrPewGc4

While we're no prudes, the excerpts above are more than a little over-the-top. Leaked nudes? Buttercup having 6 rounds of sex with a woman she met the night before? The whole thing feels like the fruits of a bot that studied millennial twitter from 10 years ago. Like, who the hell keeps tabs on people using Linkedin?? Twitter users did not take kindly to the cringey attempt at a reboot. Especially after finding out that the script is real. We've put together some of the funniest reactions to the debacle. And we're pleased to say that the pilot was abandoned. While it's comforting to know that we won't be seeing this blasphemy come to fruition, we don't want you to get too excited: the CW has decided to go back to the drawing board. It might be a good time to take bets as to how bad they'll screw up next time. 

The internet hasn't been kind to Andrew Yang of late. But it's really his own fault. The failed presidential candidate turned New York mayoral candidate has been gunning for the approval of the city's residents. It's normal for candidates to suck up to voters, but if you ask New Yorkers, most of them will say he's been doing it wrong.

His first New York-related offense? Calling a bougie Midtown deli a bodega. For those who aren't aware, a bodega is the city's version of a convenience/corner store. They're not shining delicatessens filled with matcha and gleaming glass. Most of them have boast cats, cheap beer and sandwiches, and are run by locals from Yemen, the Dominican Republic, or Puerto Rico. 

He's also managed to receive scorn for giving away the family dog, being much, much worse at basketball than Adam Sandler,and alienating Muslim residents with some seriously short-sighted comments about the war in Israel. Today, however, the internet is up in arms over the third episode of Ziwe's satirical interview show on Showtime. In the episode, Ziwe chats with Yang about billionaires, race, politics, music - and his favorite New York City subway station. Unfortunately for Yang, he chose the station closest to his home: Times Square. 

Anyone who knows anything about New Yorkers should know that many of us would rather die that find ourselves even blocks away from the tourist trap filled with wide-eyed out of towners, chain restaurants, and a serious lack of public restrooms. To natives or longtime residents, Yang's choice was more proof that he's out of touch with the city. And, as usual, New Yorkers on Twitter had a lot to say about the matter.

If you thought tech companies couldn't possibly release a product more stupid than Tesla's Cybertruck, you'd be wrong! Apple just released its most expensive product ever today: the Mac Pro, which has a $6,000 base price and - get this - can cost all the way up to just over $100,000 if you want the absolute most powerful Mac that money can buy. 

Purchasing the wheels alone will cost you a cool $400. Apple, you're just trolling us at this point, right? Honestly we think this computer is just some sort of weird flex for the disturbingly wealthy. 

All we're saying here is, this damn thing better turn into a flying car, or have the ability to cure cancer or some sh*t.

How could Spongebob possibly get any better than it already is, you ask? Just add Keanu Reeves, of course. The internet hasn't been able to contain its excitement since the release of the new trailer for The Spongebob Movie: Sponge On The Run, where our boy Keanu makes a little cameo as a tumbleweed. Here are some of the best dank meme reactions we've been able to find, and some more spongebob memes in case you can't get enough! 

Once we accepted that we'll never have the newest iPhone, Apple's release events became a hell of a lot more enjoyable. According to Twitter, we're not the only ones who feel that way. While the iPhone 11 and 11 Pro have a whole lot of interesting features, Twitter's having their wildest field day with the look of the multi-lens cameras. The comparisons range from stove tops to Surprised Pikachu memes, and they've shown no signs of stopping. Here are our favorites so far. 

Are y'all ready for a mess of a news story? Lori Loughlin, AKA Aunt Becky from Full House, was taken into custody this morning for participating in a huge college admissions sting to get her completely unqualified daughter admitted into the University of Southern California. Several other wealthy celebrities were involved, including Desperate Housewives' Felicity Huffman and her husband William H. Macy.

Charges so far include $25 million in bribes to university authorities and fabrication of credentials to be admitted into some of the top universities in the nation.

Some have pointed out that Loughlin's daughter, Olivia Jade Giannulli, would never have been admitted to USC on her own academic merit. Giannulli, a prominent beauty YouTuber, even admitted in a video back in August that she plans to focus more on college parties than her classes.

Under the monikers #FreeAuntBecky and #CollegeAdmissionScandal, many memers and Twitter users have expressed their frustration at the situation, pointing out that regular people have to get admitted to universities on actual academic merit and not absurdly rich parents.

The moment that all fans of 'The Bachelor' have been waiting for finally happened last night - the fence jumping moment that has been teased since episode 1. While we still have a two-night finale to look forward to, a whole lotta drama happened (and we can expect more during tonight's edition of Women Tell All). 

First, Tayshia and Colton shared a romantic helicopter ride to a dreamy cliffside castle, where the pair made a lot of virginity jokes. Despite a lot of ogling and even a nip slip, Colton and Tayshia opted against a night of Fantasy Suite deflowering. Tayshia seemed a bit disappointed, but in the end was just grateful to get to know Underwood a little better. 

Next up was Cassie's date. The two seemed to be getting along brilliantly, sharing steamy kisses on idyllic Portugal streets, and goofing off in souvenir shops. The fun stuff finally gave way when Colton revealed that Cassie's father had not given the stud his blessing. Colton was hopeful that the duo could move past a moment that clearly shook Cassie to her core, but matters got worse when Daddy Randplph himself showed up to persuade his daughter to cut things off with the former NFL player. The evening culminated in an agonizing stretch of Colton and Cassie going back and forth, and Colton inexplicably announcing that she's the one he wants to end up with. Cassie eventually decided to dip, which led to the much-awaited fence-jumping. For a moment that everyone has been waiting for, it sure seemed anticlimactic. 

As can be expected, fans on Twitter went absolutely wild tweeting reactions, gifs, and even some well-crafted memes in response. Here are some of our favorites.

Before anyone comes to this mathematically challenged mouth-breather's defense, I want, no I need to be the first to say that I too grappled with the numbers game on a very, infuriatingly regular basis. Struggled hard, dude. Not this extreme, but enough to guarantee I'd carve something of a living wrestling the blank page with the written word instead of anything remotely inclusive of the numbers. So this dude has my sympathies, but let's revel in the glaring FAIL.

In case you missed the news , the San Diego Chargers are with San Diego no more, and officially movin onwards to Los Angeles. Best of all in this whole shitshow of a logo rehaul...the team retraced their steps after getting roasted seven ways from Sunday on Twitter. That hasn't stopped other teams from continuing to troll the ever livin' shit out of 'em. Phew.

At least we have our comedically gifted fast food twitter in such trying and unpredictable times. Of all the tweets we're about to cruise through, I've gotta pass the MVP award to Wendy's at this point, man. The sheer brutality meets locker-room kind of banter they've had runnin amok across my twitter feed as of late is a solid testament to social media marketing done right.

Er ... Merry Christmas kids.

The kind of gift that 2016 needed.

Oh boy. What is this, some sort of cry for help? Please comment with any captions this photo was so sorely missing!

Can you really blame 'em?
