What is the Watercooler?
It's a haven in the middle of a harsh, 9-to-5 world. A place where you can gather with your fellow human beings and bond over a paper cup full of cool refreshment.
All sorts of randomness is welcome here. Post pictures, videos, special Chat information, or just discuss news and current events.

This has been the hottest topic around in the pro-wrestling world this week. CM Punk of the WWE (who is supposedly leaving the company in a few weeks) made this scathing promo that walks a very fine line between reality and fantasy.
Just to give you an idea, CM Punk has been legitimately frustrated in recent months with his current status in the WWE. Eventually, it all went down to this. And everyone is buzzing over this, even those from rival promotions.
Heck, even the non-wrestling fans thought it was awesome.
Though I heard this is the trailer you get when you see Cars 2, it's moreso here for the rest of us.
Yaaay next summer!
What is Movie Sign?
Every Sunday night, we nestle down in Chat and watch an episode of the cult TV show Mystery Science Theater 3000 (MST3K for short) while spamming up the Chat box. Don't worry - we use episodes available on streaming sites so that we can all watch simultaneously.
What's MST3K?
A comedy show that ran from 1988-1999, it's like watching a movie with running commentary. Joel Robinson or Mike Nelson, along with 'bots Tom Servo and Crow, are forced to watch terrible films as part of a mad scientist's bid for world domination. To keep their (and our) sanity, they talk back to the movies and riff on them. A more detailed explanation can be found up at the SoL.

A mysterious hypnotist reverts his beautiful assistant back into the form of a prehistoric sea monster that she was in a past life. This sounds like it could be interesting, but knowing our track record...

Casual day is a bomb, as is the portable desk. What is about constellations? And why am I too young to get references like Hamilton, Joe Frank, and Reynolds?
