Oh, The Temptation from Steve V on Vimeo.
This might be one of my favorite videos online.
In this video, various children are told to sit in a chair in a room with one marshmallow. The adult tells the child that they can either eat the marshmallow now or wait until they come back and as a reward, the child would receive another marshmallow for their patience. It’s funny to watch the kids squirm and wrestle with the temptation to eat the marshmallow. [via]

This is seriously messing with my head.
I can’t seem to find any information on the original artist, but there seem to be a lot more of these weird alternate Calvin and Hobbes comics over in this RottenTomatoes thread. Actually, here are some more Calvin and Hobbes comics where Calvin is grown-up. I can’t say I like these at all…

In 2007, several photos of two Asian (presumably Chinese) kids — one girl and one boy — were posted online. It depicted the two of them involved in “adult-like” activities in public. Nobody knows for sure how old the children are, but it is clear in the sequence of photos that they are involved in some sort of imitation of adult caress and intimacy.
It’s a bit confusing to figure out just exactly what is going on in these photographs (for example, there’s one image allegedly showing the boy with his hands down the girls pants) but there’s no doubt that it’s a weird situation.
I kind of wonder who the photographer was. Anyway, if you want to see the full set of really awkward images, click inside.
