Here's the funny thing about the Internet: No matter how much time you actually spend online, you will never quite see and experience everything the Internet has to offer. The sheer magnitude of videos, websites, games, photos, social media sites, and zany GIFs is far too much for one person to find on their own. So we decided to compile a handy list. Here are the best things to do on the Internet this weekend, April 20 - 21.

Read the Craziest Email in the History of Emails
When one of the executive board members of the Delta Gamma sorority at the University of Maryland chapter got wind that sisters weren't participating in Greek Week she sent what could be considered the most deranged email in the history of email to the chapter.

In Honor of its 19th Anniversary, Listen to Illmatic on Spotify
Nas is a storyteller. Nowhere is this more evident than on 1994’s Illmatic—his first and, by most accounts, his best album.

Preview the Love & Hip Hop Atlanta Supertrailer and Wait Patiently For Its Premiere on Monday
Ok, we admit it: Love & Hip Hop Atlanta is a guilty pleasure of the Complex Tech team. Sure, it exemplifies the worst of reality TV, but damn if it isn't entertaining. We've been eagerly anticipating Season 2 and after seeing the supertrailer, we're amped. The new season debuts on Monday, but take our advice: Watch the supertrailer and remember why you fell in love with the show in the first place.
