Kathie Lee and Hoda engage in some mild horse(manning)play.
Kathie Lee and Hoda engage in some mild horse(manning)play.

1. Internet art project of the day: Videogum's challenge to its readers to draw their own signs complaining about celebrities, just like this pizza restaurant owner did about that cheapskate Adam Sandler.

2. Pretend meme picked up by a morning show of the day: Horsemanning, as demonstrated by Kathie Lee and Hoda on "Today." From the screenshot, I'm guessing it's like owling or planking, except you have to be drunk on white wine at 9 a.m. in order for it to count.

3. Adorably sad/misguided quote of the day: "For sure I miss Charlie," said Angus T. Jones regarding his former "Two and a Half Men" costar Charlie Sheen. "I still want to hang out with him and stuff. We're still friends." (You might want to ask your parents permission about that first, kiddo.)

4. Zombie conspiracy of the day: Remember how "The Walking Dead's" show-runner Frank Darabont left the AMC hit abruptly under mysterious circumstances? Well, The Hollywood Reporter has some theories about what happened. Like Darabont getting fired for being "notoriously a pain in the ass."

5. Interview of the day: Now that the annual Gathering of the Juggalos is officially underway, Adult Swim quizzes the Insane Clown Posse on the movies that give them the creeps.
