Ricky Gervais has a new endorser for his voice on social media app Just Sayin'. It's not a Hollywood celebrity or a sports star. It's a talking guinea pig named Rory.
In a hilarious ad posted to YouTube, Rory complains about how nobody takes him seriously on the Internet because of his unruly hair. "That never points the same way twice!" he complains in the video. "For us guinea pigs, everyday is a bad day."
After reading a few of the jokes commenters made on his video blog, Rory announces that he has a found a solution: Just Sayin'.
Just Sayin' is an app that lets users share voice, text, photos and video (or any combination of them) on Facebook and Twitter. It was launched on September 19 by Gervais, who created the app along with voice-technology company CloudTalk. If nobody has to see his hair and they can just hear his voice, Rory concludes, they will finally take him seriously.
Watch Rory snap back at the trolls on his blog, his hair problems and Just Sayin'.
Sometimes you need to look at things a litter bit closer than usual to see the humor -- or the harsh realities -- that they really hold.

Over the course of two days, travel writer and blogger Raymond Walsh found and photographed a number of unexpected Easter Eggs that are built into the giant Lego structure.
According to Walsh's blog, more than 100 Master Builders from North America, Europe, and Asia worked for two years to complete the Miniland USA attraction. According to the photos he collected, some of them had a very twisted sense of humor.
With the release of the iPhone 5, Apple scrapped the old, reliable 30-pin connector in favor of its newfangled Lightning connector. Millions of 30-pin connector cords will be stranded in households across the world.

Our texts, emails, tweets and other forms of communication may have shrunken in size, but there is no excuse for poor grammar -- especially punctuation.
A misused or missing comma or apostrophe could completely change your sentence. "Let's eat, grandma" becomes "let's eat grandma" instead. Who would do such a horrible thing to their grandmother?!

Just one smile can brighten up a room. A smile is a universal symbol: It's one of our first means of communication as babies and requires no translation across cultures. Although smiling may seem like a uniquely human trait, it's not uncommon to see smiles from animals -- or even inanimate objects. Thanks to the proliferation of Internet communication, smiles have even become a part of our written language.
Last week for the Mashable Photo Challenge, we honored the 30th anniversary of the emoticon by asking our readers to submit photos that represented a smile.
