Sometimes, famous people get sick of the paparazzi and just want to blend in. For the Kardashian/Jenner family, that desire to be normal is probably rare, but for whatever reason, Kylie and Kendall Jenner, along with their half-sister Khloé Kardashian decided to slum it up on March 18. They got dressed up in elaborate disguises and pretend to be tourists from Albuquerque. And Kylie snapchatted the whole trip.

Here's Kylie, even wearing fake ear gauges.

Kendall, unrecognizable in a wavy wig.

And Khloé, looking matronly.

The disguises totally worked, too, at least for a while. In this quick Snapchat video, the driver asks his tourist group (including the three secret celebs) if any of them have ever seen a red carpet. Oh, the irony.

Khloé says she didn't want to talk about "those Kartrashians."

And then afterwards, there's the joy of pulling all that latex off.

So next time you're traveling, look closely at your fellow passengers, because you never know which of them could be bored celebs just trying to fit in.  

If Ritchie the cat looks grumpy, it's only because this tomcat from Rangsit, a town just north of Bangkok in Thairland, has so many responsibilities—he's got a crew of seven tiny Chihuahuas who look to him for constant leadership.

In an interview with Coconuts Bangkok, Pusanisa Disapirom, who owns Ritchie and the seven wee dogs (and runs their Instagram account) explained: "They all live together. Ritchie now takes care of the dogs. He's the leader now. At bedtime, if the dogs are loud, Ritchie will let out a loud meow like he's telling them to shut up. And they all run to the bed to sleep."

She continued, "They all sleep in the same bed, in an air-conditioned room. The only fight they have is when Ritchie sleeps and the dogs like to mess with him."

Apparently, things didn't go quite as smoothly right from the start. Disapirom's sister adopted Ritchie 5 years ago when he was just a little, not-yet-grumpy kitten. Then they got a Chihuahua puppy, and another, and another, until all of a sudden they had seven dogs (you know how that just happens).

And for a while, Ritchie and the dogs all lived together in the same townhouse, in the midst of an "ongoing war." A teeny, tiny adorable little war.

Until one day a few months ago, when Disapirom made the decision to put Ritchie in a group photo with the dogs. Suddenly, everything settled into place (how lucky is she?), and boom—Instagram gold.

Now Ritchie and his dogs (Kuma, Nami, Hana, Barbara, Michelle, Yuta, and Mocha) spend their days playing in the garden and dressing up in costumes for photos.

Disapirom told Coconuts: "We've created such a huge bond. I raised them since they were young. Even though they cannot speak, they try their best to show their love to me. When I come home, they're always excited and happy. They make me want to come home."

Or maybe you should just never leave home in the first place, Disapirom. Unless the crew is coming along.

On Monday, Comedian Quincy Jones appeared on Ellen and received the news that his wish to perform a stand-up comedy special will become a reality. In July, he was given a year to live following a diagnosis of Stage 4 mesothelioma cancer. Ellen, who began as a stand-up and has the show-business power of an immortal, arranged for his special to air on HBO. That's a big deal, as recent HBO stand-up specials include major names like Amy Schumer and Louis C.K. Jones was naturally ecstatic to hear the news:

For those that live in LA or will be there on Monday, April 4, you can buy tickets to his special recording here.

The persistently likable Carrie Underwood shared a photo on her Instagram that depicts the daily struggle many mothers and animal-owners go through: the battle to pee in privacy. 

"Can't a mom just go to the bathroom in peace?" Underwood asked on the photo of her one-year-old son Isaiah and her dog Penny. Nope, a child demands constant and undivided attention, from age 0 until forever.

Perhaps these are actually inside shots showing Isaiah and Penny desperately trying to free themselves from the confines of the bathroom that Underwood is inhabiting. "Fresh air," you can almost hear the child gasp.

Though given Underwood's caption, it's fair to assume someone stood on the outside of the bathroom and snapped the two needy ones while Underwood used the facilities. Which is a little weird. Almost as weird as the large gap between the floor and door.

The Internet loves optical illusions, but they most just feature ugly articles of clothing, rather than the one truly beautiful thing that exists in this world: celebrities. In that way, this optical illusion stands alone, although the pretty faces in it—like those of Jennifer Garner and Gwyneth Paltrow—get real weird, real quick. Keep your eyes on the pale cross between the two pictures in the optical illusion, and watch everyone morph and distort.

The pictures of the celebrities aren't melting; your eyes are just being weird. Foiled by your own sight again! The illusion comes from a study exploring how the human brain processes faces by the researcher Matthew Thompson, who wrote this on his website:

Like many interesting scientific discoveries, this one was an accident. Sean Murphy, an undergraduate student, was working alone in the lab on a set of faces for one of his experiments. He aligned a set of faces at the eyes and started to skim through them. After a few seconds, he noticed that some of the faces began to appear highly deformed and grotesque. He looked at the especially ugly faces individually, but each of them appeared normal or even attractive. We called it the "Flashed Face Distortion Effect...

The effect seems to depend on processing each face in light of the others. By aligning the faces at the eyes and presenting them quickly, it becomes much easier to compare them, so the differences between the faces are more extreme. If someone has a large jaw, it looks almost ogre-like. If they have an especially large forehead, then it looks particularly bulbous.

And that's with really, really pretty people. Can you imagine how weird your face could get in one of these optical illusions?

The worlds ranked No.1 tennis player, Novak Djokovic, has decided to insert himself into the controversy about Raymond Moore's comments on the WTA, even though he really, really shouldn't have.

It all started with Raymond Moore, the CEO of Indian Wells Tennis Garden, who is currently hosting the BNP Parabis Open. Moore had stated a bevy of bizarre things about women tennis players that ranged from confusing to downright sexist:

Indian Wells CEO Raymond Moore's remarks this morning not likely to delight the WTA, its players, or fans: pic.twitter.com/56zSV0SK2X

— Ben Rothenberg (@BenRothenberg) March 20, 2016

No, I think the WTA -- you know, in my next life when I come back I want to be someone in the WTA, (laughter) because they ride on the coattails of the men.  They don't make any decisions and they are lucky. They are very, very lucky.

If I was a lady player, I'd go down every night on my knees and thank God that Roger Federer and Rafa Nadal were born, because they have carried this sport.  They really have.

Yikes. Raymond, you will be lucky to come back as a rodent or a bug in your next life, the way you're talking about female athletes. Somehow, this conversation managed to spiral into an even weirder and more misogynistic whirlpool of bullshit when Moore tried to be more complimentary:

More from Indian Wells CEO Raymond Moore this morning, further down his remarks: pic.twitter.com/nXNATitvrR

— Ben Rothenberg (@BenRothenberg) March 20, 2016

But you know what?  I think the WTA have a handful - not just one or two - but they have a handful of very attractive prospects that can assume the mantle.  You know, Muguruza, Genie Bouchard. They have a lot of very attractive players. And the standard in ladies tennis has improved unbelievably. 

Okay, strangely worded, but not terrible, right? Then, the reporter asked if he used the word attractive to mean physically or competitively attractive. You could almost guess what happens next. 

No, no, no I don't -- I mean both.  They are physically attractive and competitively attractive. They can assume the mantle of leadership once Serena decides to stop. I think they've got -- they really have quite a few very, very attractive players.

Noooo! That was so close to not being offensive and then you had to go and ruin it by talking about how physically attractive the women athletes are.  

In the wake of this needless crusade to devalue strong, successful women athletes, Novak Djokovic came forward with his own confusing comments on the controversy. Djokovic is the No.1 ranked tennis player in the world, and it is very likely his attractiveness was never discussed by a CEO in an interview about his sport.  Be warned, although he starts his comment with "I don't know what to say", he sure says a whole lot.

Novak Djokovic weighs in on Ray Moore's remarks, equal prize money, and…female hormones? This was…not his best work. pic.twitter.com/dauOSP7iru

— Ben Rothenberg (@BenRothenberg) March 20, 2016

I applaud them for that. I honestly do. They fought for what they deserve, and they got it. On the other hand, I think that our men's tennis world, ATP world, should fight for more, because the stats are showing that we have much more spectators on the men's tennis matches.

I think that's one of the you know, reasons why maybe we should get awarded more. But, again, you know, we can't complain because we also have great prize money in men's tennis is at the right moment in the right time. 

Although those statements are not necessarily true, they just toed the line of being ill-informed instead of completely offensive. Then, things got weirder.

It's knowing what they have to go through with their bodies, and their bodies are much more different than men's bodies. They have to go through a lot of different things that we don't go through. You know, the hormones and different stuff, we don't need to go into details. Ladies know what I'm talking about.

He capped off the conversation with 

I'm completely for women power.

Wait...what just happened? It's nice (but unlikely) that you can understand the turmoil of having a lady body (ladies know what he's talking about), but stating that men should be awarded more prize money than women by suggesting that men's tennis is more popular doesn't exactly seem like something someone who is "completely for women power" would say.  

Despite having a woman's body, Serena Williams was somehow able to make her return to the tournament for the first time in fifteen years. Although her return seemed to be overshadowed by two dudes talking about how women athletes are less valuable than men athletes, she still shared her thoughts with the New York Times:

There’s only one way to interpret that. ‘Get on your knees,’ which is offensive enough, and ‘thank a man’? We, as women, have come a long way. We shouldn’t have to drop to our knees at any point. I don’t think any woman should be down on their knees thanking anybody like that. I think Venus, myself, a number of players — if I could tell you every day how many people say they don’t watch tennis unless they’re watching myself or my sister — I couldn’t even bring up that number. So I don’t think that is a very accurate statement.

Sounds like Serena wants hit more than just tennis balls. Moore later issued an apology to the WTA.

You know the only difference between a blonde girl and a—oh, forget it, there's no difference. A research scientist at Ohio State University has released a new study that puts an end to all those dumb "dumb blonde" jokes that people stopped telling after middle school anyway. You did stop telling them, right?

Published in Economics Bulletin, the study relies on data from a survey of 10,878 people conducted in 1980 that, incidentally, measured both intelligence and hair color. The study took place over a span of decades, so questioners asked about hair color as a way to help correctly identify the subject when they circled back to ask them questions years later.  

According to OSU, the new study used numbers from that old survey to find that "white women who said their natural hair color was blonde had an average IQ score within 3 points of brunettes and those with red or black hair."

The author of the study, Jay Zagorsky, explained some of his motivation for resurfacing the information in his study:

"Research shows that stereotypes often have an impact on hiring, promotions and other social experiences." So, basically, Zagorsky saw prejudice in the world and set out to disprove it.

Prejudice against blonde-haired white women, sure, but progress is progress, right? Even if it's more progress for a group that's already doing pretty well?

Zagorsky made sure to clarify, "I don't think you can say with certainty that blondes are smarter than others, but you can definitely say they are not any dumber."

Great. That's about as flattering as a dumb blonde joke, but at least the myth is busted.

Designer Charles Hutton, aka InstaChaaz, creates witty charts, graphs, and cartoons on sticky notes that illustrate how awesome painful adulthood can be. His illustrations impeccably detail the simple (yet somewhat exasperating) things adults do and think about daily. 

Whether you identify with arguing with yourself about whether you should exercise or procrastinating at work by going on social media, take a look at this guy's awesome sticky notes:

Aside from creating these beautiful—and far from scientific—infographics, doesn't this guy have, like, the sleekest handwriting? Could he actually be a robot? 

Chemese Armstrong, a 34 year-old health blogger from Abilene, Texas, recently took a trip to an Austin salon, which was quickly followed by a trip to the emergency room after a harsh allergic reaction to hair dye caused her eyes to swell shut. Armstrong posted pictures of her allergically-enlarged cranium to Instagram, which she alleges was due to henna, the natural plant-based dye she'd tried using as an alternative to hair dyes containing the chemical paraphenylenediamine (PPD). The blogger had learned years before that she had an allergy to PPD, and was trying to be smart about avoiding it: unluckily for her, it turns out the kind of henna this salon used contained PPD as well.

According to Armstrong's mentioned YouTube video, "[PPD] is a dark dye used in almost every hair color on the market, regardless of brand. The darker the color, usually the higher the concentration. More than two-thirds of hair dyes currently contain PPD or related chemicals." For anyone looking to dye their hair soon, it's likely worth confirming that you don't have a PPD allergy before dumping a bunch of it on your head. And if you do, make sure the "natural" dye you use instead is actually PPD-free.

Chemese reached out to the salon and has yet to receive a response.

Luckily, Chemese's face returned to normal, and her hair ended up looking wonderful, as you can see in her video detailing the ordeal below.

For his 37th birthday—his last one before he'll become a father with wife Behati Prinsloo—Adam Levine treated himself right. By eating cake. Alone. In bed. The Maroon 5 singer and Voice judge shared the moment from his hotel with an Instagram photo that may be the most attractive one that he's ever posted online:

For my birthday yesterday I sat in bed all day with the shades drawn eating this cake completely alone. It might have been the best birthday I've ever had. I took time to reflect on so much and had a moment to genuinely appreciate the life that I have and the incredible people I have in it. I highly recommend taking at least one birthday in your life and keeping it to yourself. It fuckin RULED. And that cake was GOOD.

Dude made a decent dent in the cake. Good job. March 18, 2016 is notable not only for being Levine's 37th birthday, but also for being one of the few days where the divisive celebrity has been undeniably appealing. 

And now, presumably, back to Adam Levine carrying on with his vaguely slimy persona. 

There's a seal in County Wicklow, Ireland that for the past four years has done the same thing many humans do—go to a restaurant for most of its meals. Alan Hegarty told the BBC that after opening his restaurant in 2012, the seal started to make an appearance. The employees started feeding him fish, and soon the seal, named Sammy, was a up to three meals a day.

But even that wasn't enough for him. No longer content to wait for his daily feedings, Sammy the seal has started leaping up onto the pavement and eagerly waddling to the shop. "He appeared a week or two after I opened the chip shop, but it's only recently he's started jumping out of the sea and crossing the road," Hegarty said. Sammy's eager stomach prompts the crew to sometimes shoo him off with a chair, which barely works.

Maybe it's easier to find fish on land than in the water these days.

The restaurant crew only feeds the seal about three kilos of fish total per day versus what Hegarty said is the standard ten a seal requires. The restaurant has also started to toss out more fish, as another seal has joined Sammy in fast-food dining experience.

Around Valentine's Day, a lady seal began accompanying Sammy to his meals. "She obviously wasn't a one night stand," Hagerty said of the yet-unnamed seal. "When I go to feed them Sammy steps back so I can feed her first, he's a proper gentleman." Sounds like these two may be in it for the long haul of easy living.

Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren is going OFF on Donald Trump in a scathing Twitter rampage that gives Trump's own angry tweets a run for their money. If you're unfamiliar with Warren, the Massachusetts senator was who Bernie supporters wanted to run before they met Bernie. She and Trump are unlikely to ever get along. The smackdown began with a series of tweets that attacked Trump's financial failures.

Let’s be honest - @realDonaldTrump is a loser. Count all his failed businesses. See how he cheated people w/ scams like Trump U.

— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) March 21, 2016

See how @realDonaldTrump kept his father’s empire afloat using strategic corporate bankruptcies to skip out on debt.

— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) March 21, 2016

Listen to experts who say @realDonaldTrump might have more money today if he’d put his inheritance in an index fund & left it alone.

— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) March 21, 2016

Warren then adopted one of Trump's favorite words—"loser"–to redefine the leading Republican candidate. 

.@RealDonaldTrump knows he’s a loser. His insecurities are on parade: petty bullying, attacks on women, cheap racism, flagrant narcissism.

— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) March 21, 2016

But just because @realDonaldTrump is a loser everywhere else doesn’t mean he’ll lose this election.

— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) March 21, 2016

.@RealDonaldTrump stands ready to tear apart an America that was built on values like decency, community, and concern for our neighbors.

— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) March 21, 2016

Many of history’s worst authoritarians started out as losers – and @realDonaldTrump is a serious threat.

— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) March 21, 2016

The way I see it, it’s our job to make sure @realDonaldTrump ends this campaign every bit the loser that he started it.

— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) March 21, 2016

At this point, Warren stopped her decimation of Trump's campaign and character... for about four hours before firing back with even more scathing anti-Trump tweets.

Why is it that @realDonaldTrump can call himself the “unity” candidate while basing his campaign on racism, sexism, xenophobia & hatred?

— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) March 21, 2016

.@RealDonaldTrump is “cool with being called an authoritarian,” isn't upset at Hitler comparisons & thinks we won’t fight back? WRONG!

— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) March 21, 2016

We cannot elect wannabe tyrants to the White House. Not now, not ever. It’s up to all of us us to stop @realDonaldTrump .

— Elizabeth Warren (@elizabethforma) March 21, 2016

She also compiled her thoughts into a longer, but similar, Facebook post.

Clearly, the Senator has had enough of Trump, and had to get it out with a good old fashioned Twitter rant. When asked about the Twitter assault at a news conference, Trump responded "Who's that? The Indian?" referring to a popular conservative meme that Warren used her fractional Native American heritage to advance her career (despite every employer she's ever had denying this). Because why attack Elizabeth Warren alone when you can also prove you're "un-PC" enough to say "Indian" like a 5-year-old. 

To celebrate their 50th anniversary, 7-Eleven had their second annual "Bring Your Own Cup" day, which (confusingly) took place on March 18 and 19. The convenience store chain permitted folks to bring in their own desired containers and fill them up with the store's popular Slurpee drinks.

According to ABC News, the only condition was that these containers be leak-proof and must "fit in a cutout in stores that has a 10-inch diameter"—a rule that most folks took as a light suggestion.

All across America, Slurpee enthusiasts obliged the spirit of 7-11's request, if not the letter. They brought some pretty wacky containers for Bring Your Own Cup Day, many of which were not actually "containers" and probably don't fit in the 10-inch diameter hole (pictured above).

Take a look at some of the crazy "cups" people brought to their local 7/11:

A child's sled.

A mailbox.

A wagon.

A trombone.

A kiddie pool.

A drawer.

Yup, the cups came in all shapes and sizes:

Do you want to know what else won't fit in a 10-inch diameter hole? This totally NSFW thing.

Last week, some college students in Waterloo, Ontario helped cops carry the kegs out of their busted house party. The students at Wilfrid Laurier University were having a St. Patrick's Day party when way too many cops showed up. That's when things got, well, super-Canadian.

Unlike those brazen American college students, who try to distract the police while they hide the booze, these students knew they were busted and helped the cops carry the kegs outside. And unlike American police, the Waterloo Regional Police got a warrant to enter the premises.

Here's a pic of the very friendly cops, who even wore a bright shade of green to the St. Patrick's Day party:

And the Waterloo Regional Police got in on the tweeting too. The students even posed with the cops as their precious carbonated cargo was taken away:

Everyone is smiling and being very cooperative and very Canadian.

Americans can now add friendly college students to the list of pros as they debate a move to Canada should Trump be elected president of the United States.

In 2013, two criminals hired a private helicopter tour, held the pilot at gunpoint, and forced him to land atop the St. Jérôme​ jail in Quebec, Canada, where their two friends were waiting to incompetently scramble up the wall of the jail. (Seriously, you're supposed to work out in prison, guys.) All four were arrested within days after they left their blindfolded pilot on the side of the road. Helicopter jail breaks happen way more often than you would think, but rarely is there very good footage. Even though the jailbreak is a few years old, the film was only obtained recently by Le Journal de Montreal. For some reason the version on their official channel has Benny Hill-esque banjo music.

Here's a version without the bizarre soundtrack:

Superdrug Online Doctor, a real site with a name that belongs on an email about penis pills,* recently did some research into the regions of the world that use the hashtag #sexy the most on their Instagram photos. The research is a little squiggly, considering that Superdrug Online Doctor admits that sexiest places have a lot of beachgoing tourists that are likely posting the #sexy photos, but they still chose to calculate the sexy percentages based on the countries' permanent population numbers. That said, the number-crunch does show which locations get tagged #sexy frequently—or infrequently. Here's how the United States shakes out, or as they technically put it at the top of the chart, the United States States:

Unsurprisingly, the state that's home to Las Vegas, the decadence-dedicated city that's like Mos Eisley if you replaced all the spaceships with boobs, tops the United States' #sexy list. That's followed by three bathing-suit-friendly locations, and then New York, presumably because people are turned on by pizza rats and paying too much for tiny apartments.

On the opposite side of the list are states with frequently cold climates, although New Mexico seems like it shouldn't be that unsexy. Maybe people aren't turned on by New Mexico's turquoise jewelry and communism-themed proms?

While those sexy states might make sense, one other takeaway from the "study" was that the United State isn't that sexy in the grand scheme of things:

Superdrug Online Doctor also looked at the terms most frequently coupled with "sexy." It turns out that Wyoming and West Virginia have some very specific interests:

Hopefully this information will bring a new wave of foot-fetishists to Wyoming, where they can build on the existing #sexy #feet colony.

Wait a minute. Seriously, Nevada is #sexy?

* Which, yes, they do sell on a page of a picture with a jumping man, even though it seems like it would be difficult to jump with such a great boner.
