…all my friends are dead.

This Tumblr post just set a new URDB world record for Most Notes on a Single Tumblr Post! Officially submitted as 26,302 notes by book author Avery Monsen, it is now well over 27,000 in just four days—and still growing. Play a part in record history by adding more notes to this post, or, better yet, come up with your own super-viral Tumblr post and defeat this record. Onwards! Submissions welcome here.

We’re backstage at Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, preparing to tape a world record segment for tonight’s show. No sneak peeks on the feats we’ll be documenting, but we swear on our lives—they’re awesome. Tune into NBC tonight at 12:35 AM.

NEXT TUESDAY at Joe’s Pub in NYC. Our stellar lineup includes the likes of Opus Moreschi, Elna Baker, Morgan Murphy, Mark Malkoff, Arden Myrin, Victor Varnado and beatboxer Chris ‘Shockwave’ Sullivan. All proceeds to Special Olympics New York. Advance tickets highly suggested. 

Chapped lips and makeup aficionados rejoice: Ashlie Munk set a new world record for the Largest Lip Balm Collection with her 415 lip balms in a variety of colorful tubes and tins. Not only a benefit for your lips, but a refreshing sight for your eyes!

If you’re in NYC this Friday, this will be an amazingly fun party. Even better, it’s raising funds for an extremely important cause. We’ll have URDB yellow jackets in the house, documenting a world record for Most Money Raised Using Square At A Charitable Event. Hope to see you there!
