The Top 10 Greatest Moments of This 47-Second-Long Video of Newt Gingrich Wearing Google Glasses at the Zoo

Like many well-behaved young boys and girls all over America, Newt Gingrich was taken to the zoo last week. The occasional presidential contender and serial adulterer wore new-fangled Google Glass for his big trip, suggesting he has likely overcome the very technophobia that inspired his last appearance on this site, a similarly inscrutable video in which he begged viewers to help him rename cell phones. (Joke?s on us, though: who doesn?t now refer to his cell phone as a ?handheld computer that allows people to have, in their hand, literally the potential to have a dramatic revolution?? As in: ?Hey, man, can I borrow your handheld computer that allows people to have, in their hand, literally the potential to have a dramatic revolution to check my Facebook??)

This most recent video, starring an old man pointing at animals, is a lot better than the cell phone one. We?ve ranked its top moments below.

10. 0:09: Gingrich says hello to a bird. ?Hello Bebe.?
9. 0:24: Gingrich?s stumpy fingers eclipse a fourth of the screen.
8. 0:42: A still photograph of Gingrich, a bird facing away from him, and two women. Gingrich?s enormous head in the Google Glasses looks like a cupcake with vanilla frosting.
7. 0:06: Gingrich is shown a painting by a bird and wants to know who it?s ?by.? (Fingers crossed its a Squak Rothko, avian abstract expressionist.)
6. 0:07: Gingrich meets the painter. Spoiler alert: it?s the bird immediately to his and the painting?s right.
5. 0:39: Gingrich is introduced to a giraffe named Vivian. ?O.K.,? he says.
4. 0:40: Apparently none of the giraffe footage is usable, because the creatures are only shown walking away from the former Speaker.
3. 0:19: The bird raises its hand to its mouth as if to remove the peanut Gingrich just fed it.
2. 0:20: The camera cuts away before the bird is shown removing the peanut Gingrich just fed it.
1. 0:01: Gingrich goes, ?O.K., Glass.?
