Watching a dog fart and wear sunglasses shouldn't make me feel this good.

What's the science behind how your brain feels when you watch a dog fart while snoring in its sleep?

There are so many great animal videos out there. The competition is fierce, and animal video content creators have a number of strategies to set themselves apart. Sometimes people go over the top with props and preparation. Sometimes they try to get attention with sheer variety of animals. Sometimes they wait until wild beasts get in their face.

Then a video comes along that just knocks it straight out of the park, without even trying. This video of a pug isn't attempting to subvert the genre or break new ground. It's simple, it's clean, it's real. It's the feel good snoring-dog fart video of the year. This dog is summer vibes times a million. This dog...is what the magic of cinema was created for. Bravo, pug. Bravo.

And finally, here it is on Kendall Jenner:




Three famous people wearing the same thing? Wow, this garment must posses a special energy, like some kind of sexy healing stone. Sure, two of them are are sisters, but they're Jenners, which basically raises the reputation of this swimsuit exponentially. And this slashed-up one piece can be yours for the uber-reasonable price of just $450.


A portrait of modesty.(via Agent Provocateur)

The best part of the designer's description is that it says "creating killer curves while keeping your modesty." Surely Jessica, Kylie and Kendall were all thinking "modesty" when they wore this swimsuit. I'm contemplating spending the cool $450 plus shipping & handling for it just to figure out how to arrange the cut-outs around my fat rolls. Can't wait.

The Internet won't be happy until this woman who lost 190 lbs exposes everything about herself.

Simone Anderson is a hair and makeup artist who has been busting her butt losing weight. She's documented her journey in detail on social media:


She's done it through diet, exercise and weight loss surgery in about 11 months, which is pretty darn impressive, if your goal in life is to be half as big as you currently are. Since she started sharing her process she's acquired tons of followers on Instagram and Facebook, and they're privy to many intimate details of her life and body. But do they think it's enough?! Of course not!

After posting this:



I am officially half the person I was 11 months ago! From 169kg to 83.85kg, I can't even begin to explain in words what this accomplishment feels like. I set my self a goal that seamed so far out of reach at the time but I have stuck to it and with a lot of determination, will power, drive, motivation & compromise I have achieved my goal. Proud doesn't even begin to describe this feeling! Every 5am start, every single workout, tear, crying fit has all been worth it! From a BMI of 51.6 to 25.6. Now by no means does this mean my journey is over, from here I am setting my self many more goals, from maintenance, to toning, to increasing weights at the gym, half marathon to full marathon, more ocean swims and more sporting teams. This is just the beginning of a brand new and improved me, one who won't let anything or anyone get in the way of achieving what ever I decide to put my mind to. COME AT ME WORLD!!!!

She got this comment (and a few others like it):


Well, one person agrees with you, apparently.(via Facebook)

It reads:

I do not believe it is the same person, phone covering her face. People lose weight that fast from that surgery have extremely sagging skin and stretch marks not the same woman, Yes she could lose the weight but that thin woman isn't the same person as the heavy one..no way!

Very well-reasoned argument. Counter-point: What's it to you? I guess since Simone puts her life out there, the expectation is that she owes every detail of herself to everyone. And in this instance, she followed through:



I don't no why but every single comment that called me out for being fake and a liar really bothered me far more than it should. I think it's because it took hours of crying and debating whether to share my story online and for others to see, posting the first picture online along with my weight for the world to see what the hardest thing I have ever done. Throughout my whole journey I have tried to be so honest about the whole experience and tell people it exactly as it's happened so to be called a fake hurt a lot. And then when it came to posting about my lose skin well that was equally as tough. So here we go I hope this helps all the "non believers" - my face uncovered, yes my hair and eyebrows are a different colour as I'm going back to blonde, yes I have changed my phone from Samsung to apple and have moved house so the background has changed (it has been 11 months people, things change!), my skin colour varies in every single post as I get a spray tan once a week on a Thursday and often change the depth of the colour I get depending on what event I have that weekend, yes I have lose skin and stretch marks but I don't feel the need to show them in every single photo I post online, I have shared my excess skin picture before so if you had bothered to click on my page you would have seen it and as for my ears changing in appearance?! Well I can't see that haha so who the hell knows!!! Maybe weight changes ears lol. Hope this helps :D now lost 85.7 GO ME!

There you go, Internet. A lady who has been working really hard on her body and self-image has now exposed what she is probably fairly insecure about, just to stop you from calling her a liar. What's that? You want to see her birth certificate?

Whatever, Simone looks hawt, I don't need anymore proof.


Taylor Swift brought Left Shark onstage to redirect everyone's attention to better feud days.

Just when you think no one Taylor Swift brings onstage at a concert can surprise you anymore.

Remember last week on Twitter, when Taylor Swift replied insensitively to Nick Minaj's on-point criticisms about the music industry's treatment of race? Well, she doesn't want you to remember that! Think about something else!

Like her light-hearted, fun, music video-inspiring feud with Katy Perry! Those were the good old days, right? It was just, like, bathing suit mockery and Mean Girls references.

Taylor Swift redirected her fans to her Good Feud at her concert in Massachusetts over the weekend. During Bad Blood, the song probably/definitely about her feud with Perry, Swift was joined on stage by Left Shark. Yes, the goofy shark from Perry's Superbowl performance. He popped in when Swift got to the lyric about how "band-aids don't fix bulletholes." Now we're having fun, right? Right? Right? Streaming services should pay performers, and there's nothing more to see here!

Amber Rose responds to slut-shaming by suggesting a parade. Everyone loves a parade!

Amber Rose is someone who seems pretty comfortable with her sexuality.

A video posted by Amber Rose (@amberrose) on

Most woman, comfortable with their sexuality or not, get attacked online pretty constantly. Especially if they have any kind of prominence. Amber Rose's response to criticism is generally to go harder. Which I admire! But now she is done twerking at the haters and is directing her energy towards other forms of celebratory protest.

She announced that she'll be leading a Slut Walk in October:








What is Slut Walk, you ask? Well, in 2011, a police officer in Toronto named Michael Sanguinetti was speaking on crime prevention and campus rape at York University. During the talk, Sanguinetti dropped this quote:

"I've been told I'm not supposed to say this – however, women should avoid dressing like sluts in order not to be victimized."

Oh, you were told not to say that, huh? Weird. Now you're famous for saying it and will be for the rest of your life! Huzzah! Anyway, the story got around and people were justifiably pissed. Slut Walks started popping up all over, with women protesting by dressing sexy and hitting the streets.

Here, Amber Rose has more info for you:

I can hear the cacophonous gull-like cries of commenters now, "Caw caw! She's a slut! Slut! Caw, slut, caw!" Which is the problem: people think they know Amber Rose because of how she dresses.

You don't know Amber Rose:








I don't know anything about Amber Rose's personal sex life. I do know that she had sex at least once with Wiz Khalifa, since they had a son together. Aside from prurient curiosity, I don't really care. I bet it's great though. Walk on, lady.

The real story behind the Satanic statue in Detroit someone on your FB feed is yelling about.

$

Yes, this is a statue to Baphomet, an occult/satanic demon/devil man/goat whatsit/thingamajig. No, it is not actually being worshipped. Yes, it's a snarky free speech thing.


I feel more comfortable with the kids next to Baphomet than next to the priests in many Christian statues.(via Facebook)

First things first, yes, the organization that paid for this statue and has been working hard to get it displayed is really named The Satanic Temple. Yes, this statue was really unveiled in Detroit this weekend in front about 700 people. No, it wasn't on state grounds (though they would have preferred that), just placed in an old industrial building. Yes, supporters yelled "Hail, Satan!" when it was unveiled. Yes, about 50 Christians turned out to protest and pray (at what turned out to be a decoy location).

Yes, to avoid disturbances within the event, the Temple made attendees sign over their souls. This was actually was a measure to keep out devout Christians because so many threats of violence had been made:



These guys probably also think the Holy Hand Grenade is real.(via Patheos)

So, what is this thing? Basically, a big political prank.

The fact that Satan is right there in the name of the church should be your first clue that this isn't quite as serious as it seems, because people who really worship evil tend to do it in secret (or so I gather). What is The Satanic Temple? Think of it like the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, but one that more aggressively trolls Christians (they once held a gay marriage on top of Westboro Baptist Church founder Fred Phelps's grave). It is dedicated not to Satan, but to waging an as-annoying-to-Christians-as-possible legal war for the strict separation of church and state.

In particular, whenever there's a 10 Commandments monument on state grounds or any kind of Christmas display, The Satanic Temple will argue that the Constitution demands they be given equal representation. That's how this statue came to be. In January of 2014, the Temple raised $20,000 on Indiegogo to construct it and place it next to the 10 Commandments monument on the Oklahoma State Capitol grounds. That did not happen, in part because Oklahoma's lawmakers reacted to the OK Supreme Court's decision that the Commandments display was unconstitutional by threatening to impeach the justices and change their state constitution.

Related: Michigan's Capitol Building will have a sweet-ass Satanic display next to its nativity scene.

See, according to the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, and various Supreme Court decisions around it, the government is not supposed to give any kind of endorsement or favor to any one religion. This is why if your town puts up a Christmas tree or a creche, they may have to match it with a big menorah and symbols from other religions. If the government is going to celebrate one religion, it has to be willing to celebrate them all. That's how the Satanic Temple successfully got one of their displays put up in Michigan's state capitol next to the nativity scene.

Besides the fact that it's an abomination of nature, I can't actually see anything Baphomet is doing wrong in this picture.(via Facebook)

They've also hijacked the pro-Christian Hobby Lobby decision to give women a way around "informed consent" laws (laws that demand women receive a prescribed lecture from their doctor before seeking an abortion or birth control), by printing a waiver stating that it's against their religion to let others' religions enter their health care decisions.

Related: How the 'Hobby Lobby' decision paved the way for Satanists to save women's rights.

So, what does this have to do with Detroit? Well, it's where the "Temple" started, space is cheap, and it's a convenient place to stash Baphomet until they can realize their dream of moving him to the state capitol grounds of Arkansas, where the governor just signed a bill authorizing a new 10 Commandments monument. Which may or may not happen, but they got a lot of press, so their plan is more or less working, so far.

What is not happening is Detroit being taken over by cultists. Cultists are organized and very good at collecting dues. Detroit should be so lucky.

An offhand tweet about using stretch marks to predict the future has launched an epic body-positivity movement.

The hashtag #thighreading took off today.


The thigh-prophet who started it all. (via Twitter)

Today there was a brand-new development in thigh-related news, one that counters the anatomically impossible tyranny of the thigh gap with a more healthy body-image trend. A Twitter user who goes by "EMO SLUT" (for close friends) or @princess_labia (for acquaintances) tweeted a picture of her thigh with a joke about reading it like a palm:

She followed this with a tweet calling for other people to post similar pictures:

All of a sudden, the hashtag blew-up, with people posting pictures of their thighs in all their natural glory:

What started out as a casual Tweet turned into a campaign against the absolutely ridiculous depictions of women's thighs in television, print, and media, which are always incredibly skinny; perfectly lit; and without beauty marks, stretch marks, or scars.

Princess Labia told MTV she didn't know it would become a hashtag, but she's thrilled that it's taking off:

She hopes that #thighreading will make people feel “normalized" in a society that constantly — and wrongfully — tells them they're not. “[Stretch marks are] so frickin' normal, but because we never see any images in the media that are not photoshopped or altered in some way, [we] feel the way the way we look is not normal, when we're the normal ones," she added.

Let's just hope no creepy dudes start claiming to have mystical, thigh-reading powers.


Is this couple getting airlifted out of a forest the worst first date story you've ever heard?

On Friday, two hikers had to be airlifted out of a forest after getting lost on their first date.


"It's okay, papa's here." (via ABC News/LA County Sheriff's Department)

What better way to get to know someone than to be trapped in the wilderness with them for an extended period of time, completely removed from civilization? On Friday, two hikers from Southern California decided to hike the Angeles National Forest for their first date. They brought a phone and a map, but still got lost. They had cell service, so they called the Altadena Sheriff's station, who had to come and airlift them out of the woods. Hopefully they managed to have a romantic airlift ride that wasn't destroyed by the guy still trying to convince the girl that he knew where they were going.


Luckily, they didn't have to eat each other.(via ABC News/LA County Sheriff's Department)

A prostitute went full-Dexter and killed a serial killer.

I'm guessing the made-for-TV movie rights have already been sold for this story about a serial killer with a "kill list" attempting to kill a prostitute, and getting killed himself.

Holy shit.

I mean, wow. I don't even know what to say.

A man goes to an escort's home and opens with the line "live or die?" while holding a gun (which, when you're visiting someone you intend to pay for sex, is not the proper etiquette). The escort defends herself with a rake, manages to get his gun, and shoots him.

All told, that's a good enough story for me. A man tries to take advantage of a woman who's clearly already hit the low side of the road, and she fights back and kills him. Solid. Except THEN we find out he's a serial killer. Not just a serial killer, but a parody of a serial killer. He had the kind of equipment only someone who is burying a body in a mob movie would have, and he also had a "kill list."

All that was missing was the hockey mask or a clown wig, and this becomes the single most justifiable use of self-defense in the history of killing people.

I wish I could get excited about a cat video or some elaborate proposal video, but I can't. This is it for me now. News about people accidentally killing serial killers. I can't wait to see who they get to play the escort in the movie!

Extremely dorky dad makes 'Taken'-style note to tell his kids to clean up after themselves.

The sequel to this note is in the bathroom.


He's like a cool RA. (via Reddit)

A father-of-two needed his messy teenagers to do some chores after they were holding the cleanliness of their kitchen hostage. Instead of shouting up the stairs, he left them a note threatening to take away their Internet connectivity if they didn't clean up. It wasn't any ordinary note, though; it was a dish-washing themed remix of Liam Neeson's famous monologue from Taken. Here is the text:

I don't know who you are.

I don't know what you want. If you are looking for a maid to clean up after you, I can tell you I don't do that.

But what I do have are a very particular set of skills. Skills I have acquired over a very long lifetime. Skills that make me [...] an expert in home WiFi systems and Cellular Date plans.

If you clean up your own kitchen mess, that'll be the end of it.

I will not look for you, I will not pursue you.

But if you don't, I will look for you, I will find you...

AND I WILL DISCONNECT YOU.

The note went viral after he posted it on Reddit, where it received of 3,500 upvotes. According to the dad, his teenagers are actually good people that have their "sh*t together," but they're just "f*cking slobs." Whoa, a dad who's a fan of Taken, uses Reddit, and curses? Are you sure he's just not one of the teenagers?

That 48-year-old adult man is still a cranky outcast, but now he's armed with a bucket full of conspiracy theories and, apparently, a fussy toddler's dislike of Disneyland's Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. At least, that's how it looks in this photo from last week that's gone viral:

JRPG-Parody-ception.

If you've ever played a role-playing game, especially a Japanese-made one (like Final Fantasy — you've heard of that, right?), you'll recognize all of these tropes. If you've ever seen jokes about tropes in RPGs, you'll also recognize these tropes and the jokes about them. I'm not knocking this video from CollegeHumor, however. This is the textbook JRPG parody. If someone made a JRPG where the magical goddess Parody was banished from the world and a bunch of heroes led by a nameless, voiceless drifter had to save her, this would be the end cutscene.

Someone opened a 'Breaking Bad'-themed coffee shop, because that's an idea that won't get old.

Hey, you guys — I know that a 'Breaking Bad'-themed coffee shop looks cool, but that idea might get old fast, so... you won't let anyone talk you out of it? OK. Well, I'll post some cool pictures of it then.




Walter's Coffee Roastery in Istanbul, Turkey, is Breaking Bad themed. If you're not familiar with Breaking Bad, it;s a TV show that, even though was very good, will almost certainly become less popular and relevant with time, because that is how time works. Despite this fact, some people have decided to open a coffee shop inspired by the show.




Obviously, they have blue meth candy:




And that blue meth candy occasionally goes on top of cupcakes, because everyone knows that drugs are better when served on top of or in desserts, like a pot brownie or cocaine mixed with sprinkles:




According to a BuzzFeed interview with one of the founders, Deniz Kosan, the coffee shop was slated for a Brooklyn open, but "when the investor backed out he decided to open the shop in Turkey instead." They're hoping to expand operations, though, opening more Walter's Coffee Roasteries in Turkey, and then in the U.S. and Europe. I love the aesthetic, so I really hope that this does keep expanding. But again, this is a coffee shop themed after a show that is now off air, so having a Walter's Coffee Roastery come to American soil feels about as likely as a series of Sopranos-themed coffee shops somehow going international. Or, even worse, Entourage-themed coffee shops.

Oh god, please no one open an Entourage-themed coffee shop.

Anyway, let's get back to enjoying this Breaking Bad coffee shop while it lasts:

People are born and people die, and relationships might flourish and wither, but no matter what, there is one constant on this great Earth of ours: People will always put themselves in grave danger for the purpose of ridiculous stunts. Like stunt driver/fearless man Gregg Godfrey, who just broke the record for a semi truck jump. His goal was a 140 foot jump, but he reached 160. Just, y'know, because.

Perfect for first dates, second dates and wedding nights, new "Shreddies" eliminate fart odor at the source.


Well, the science checks out.(via Shreddies)

The best thing about "Shreddies," underwear designed to absorb and destroy fart smells of every flavor, is their marketing.

Look how sexy and fun they make suppressing your farts look:


This. Is. Romance.(via Shreddies)

And if you're extremely neurotic about your human body doing what it was designed to do (excrete disgusting stuff), they also make a line of pants. Double-bag that toot!


They look like normal, fart dispersal jeans!(via Shreddies)

They say the cloth has carbon that absorbs unwelcome odors, but all I'm seeing is the thin blue denim line holding back stank waves. At the end of the night, after all the preliminary butt smelling, underwear comes off. There must be some residue or lingering stankitude, that much worse for having been trapped for so long. Like when you open your mouth after waking up and have cotton-mouth morning breath. But for your butthole.

We all just need to relax and accept ourselves. If someone doesn't love you at you empty-colon best, they don't deserve you at your ate-too-many-grapes worst. Let your farts fly free, people, like doves!

This orangutan is just as touchy-feely as people usually are with a pregnant lady's body, so why is it kept in a zoo?

Animals!!! You break my freaking heart. I know the issues around zoos and conservation are complicated, but just look at this sweetheart. Why is he caged? Like, I know at this point if he were released randomly into the city it would be very dangerous. But in general, animals don't belong in captivity. Except my cat.

This orangutan is living in Colchester Zoo and this is what the filmographer says:

Me and my 37 week pregnant partner visited Colchester Zoo on 13/07/2015 and was amazed when we visited Rajang the Orangutan that very quickly become fixated with her belly as she is heavily pregnant and before long he was trying to kiss my partners belly through the glass. I put my belly too the glass and got a dirty look then when I placed my hand on the he tryed to push my hand away my partner returned her belly to the glass and Rajang touched and kissed her belly again through the glass. Truly a special animal that has touched our hearts.

Ew, gross, dude belly. I bet Rajang the Oragutan is like, "Why do men need nipples even? lololol." Anyway, save the rainforest.
