We've been weighing some serious issues in our polls lately. Gun control and gay marriage most notably. Today? Not so much.

The song 'Call Me Maybe' by Canadian singer Carly Rae Jepsen is officially huge, and can safely be called the song of the Summer of 2012. How huge? The video has received 176 million views (and counting) on YouTube.

That Marine video had Army soldiers in it. No Marine would wear an Army shirt (and I'm sure visa versa). ;-)
