New Mayor of Minnesota Town is Barking Orders Literally though. The town of Cormorant elected a 7 year old dog named Duke as their mayor. Voters paid one dollar to cast their votes and apparently Duke won by a landside! The runner up, a human, did not have even half as many votes. Not sure what sort of rules he’ll put into place. But his salary consists of a lifetime supply of food. Wish that was the price for human mayors. I’d totally run if that were the case. TeenagerRead More

Young adults are becoming baseball fans, or at least going to more games. Why? Well, a recent study in the Washington Post makes note of a rise in craft beer options at ballparks. In stadiums like Great American Ballpark in Cincinnati, or Safeco Field in Seattle, “the market has exploded.” Since 2011, more young people have attended games and craft sales have gone up with them. In response, Cincinnati has installed dozens of additional craft beer taps. Meanwhile, Seattle, known for being a hip, new age kind of place, hasRead More

Since I’m going to be one of many that are posting about Robin Williams over the next couple days, I’ll let you read other articles to find out about his life, his work, and his influence on the world around him.  He was obviously an awesome human being and one of the funniest to ever live.  His comedy was on another level, and truly something that nobody else has been able to emulate.  He was a unique individual, and had the ability to make anything into a funny situation.  IRead More

Illegal Asses on the Rise Females in the United States are taking Sir Mixalot too seriously. Due to a push from hip hop culture and peers, women are feeling more and more pressure to have large behinds. Often they turn to cosmetic surgery to enhance their buttocks. However, this procedure is quite costly, so females are turning to illegal and dangerous “underground” doctors to help them reach the perfect “Coca-cola shaped body.” Often the results are successful at first. But over time, their butts become saggy, bruised and painful. ThereRead More

Oh boy. I could make this list about 3,000 people long, but I doubt you’d want to read it any more than I want to write it. So instead, we’ll focus on the absolute worst of the worst; here are the 5 celebrities that I utterly, completely hate. (And yes, Plain White Tees, I am aware that hate is a strong word…but I mean it).   #5 – Blake Shelton I don’t know why, really. Maybe it’s his utter lack of talent, or maybe it’s because he hosts the freaking Voice. MostlyRead More

Is it just me? Or has New York City turned into a breeding ground for fad dieters and soul-searching cyclists? Whether they’re a lifestyle, or just fads to blast all over social media, these trends have spread like wild fire in the metropolitan area. Must be something in their coconut waters.   Gluten-Free and Other Fad Diets  And I don’t mean the people who have been gluten-free, vegan or vegetarian for most of their life. I’m referring to those who hear of a new diet and throw it into a rotation ofRead More

I don’t listen to the radio often, but today I felt the urge to listen to some top 40 hits. TGIF, ya know? I caught wind of the new Tiesto song, “Wasted.” Or maybe it’s not new, I don’t know what’s on the radio these days. But anyways. I started listening to this song and I mean REALLY listening and all I could think was how every statement in this song is so wrong. So let me break it down for you.   1. “I like it better when we’reRead More

We’ve all heard them… around the water cooler… in gym class… during that uncomfortable “what the heck do we even talk about?!” time with your grandparents around the holidays. We’ve all heard some pretty outlandish claims in our lifetimes and yet there are still those perpetuating myths that simply won’t die. Perhaps, we should blame Hollywood movies or simply an uninformed society, but the fact is, these untruths are continuing to spread and I, for one, am sick of it. So here it is…four popular myths (or rather the firstRead More

First off it’s Friday. So be happy like these happy, jumping lambs. There’s a whole 3 minute video of this if you want more. They are just SO EXCITED and I really can’t blame them. I know you’ve been waiting all week for WTF news. So here we go.     Boy Has Extra 232 Teeth Pulled A boy in India just went through a seven hour surgery to remove 232 teeth. He first came into the doctor with swelling in his right jaw. He was diagnosed with a veryRead More

I’ll just come right out and say it: Georgia has the best drivers. Everyone likes to think their state has the best drivers but I’ll tell you, Georgia drivers are the best. From the way they never honk their horns at people trying to pull stupid and/or illegal moves, to the way that they never seem to have anywhere important to go, man I just love ’em. The only place with better drivers is LA, where they are aggressively stupid and try to commit vehicular manslaughter. Here’s some of myRead More

A new study done by the National Environmental Warming Syndicate (N.E.W.S.) proves that many recent changes in the world can be blamed on climate change. The rising sea levels that will finally sadly wipe out Florida within the next century are now not the only thing being linked to the rising temperatures on earth. Most atmospheric scientists, with the exception of the few who got online degrees, agree that climate change is happening now at a rapid pace. Since I know that nobody will actually read anything at all thatRead More

Handicapped Dogs Play Fetch You might not think a group of dogs playing fetch is all that exciting. But what about a group of dogs in wheelchairs playing fetch? This is probably the cutest thing I’ve seen all week. For only having two legs, these dogs sure can run…or roll? However I do think it’s very rude of the dogs with four legs to claim the stick. Then they go romping around the tall grass where the wheeled dogs can’t go. What a bunch of bullies.   Police Thwarted ByRead More

If you weren’t in Minneapolis on Sunday night, you were doing something wrong. While the rest of us were nursing hangovers and munching on our leftover shrimp n grits from brunch (or at least, I was), a bunch of celebs were gathered at Epic Nightclub (fitting name, it seems) for MLB.com’s All Star Bash. All star attendees included Olympic medalist Jennie Finch, 2014 Baseball Hall of Fame Inductee Frank Thomas, and NFL tight end Jermichael Finley. Bravo talk show host Andy Cohen was also in attendance, sipping on Captain MorganRead More

Man aka Superman Bends Car Door of Burning Car Clark Kent, I mean, Bob Renning, came across a burning car on the highway and pulled over to stop. The driver was stuck inside but Bob thought no problem, I’ll just tear it open with my bare hands. Bob realized the door was locked and the windows were not working so he simply gripped the door frame and braced his foot and pulled. Someone give that man a spandex suit and a cape!   Woman Sets Home on Fire Trying toRead More

-The window seat thief – This not so stealth individual will typically pretend to be sleeping, or reading, or have their headphones in, basically anything to keep them from making eye contact. OR, they keep guiltily looking up to see if anyone realizes. Either way, they’ll always play dumb and keep squinting at their boarding pass as if they’re reading some kind of encrypted text, because they’d rather look clueless than admit they’re actually just an asshole. I’m sure some of you readers are thinking maybe the alleged thief reallyRead More
