This cat and dog are either having a romantic moment or an intense battle of wills.

0
0

If the swoony background music is any indication, this poodle is ready to make the next move in her relationship with the cat, but he's not sure that's a good idea. After all, they're roommates. Or maybe (more likely) that poodle is so sick of the cat's B.S. she's using the cat's opthalmophobia to scare him out of the house for good. Either way, just kiss already! 

God, won't those humans stop laughing and give these star-crossed lovers some privacy? 


This very pregnant woman still manages to be an incredible pole dancer. In heels. With tummy rubs.

Jill McLean, a 36-year-old professional pole dancer and instructor from Australia who performs as "Cleo the Hurricane," wasn't about to let a little thing like having a gigantic baby bump stop her from creating incredible pole-dancing routines. She even added in belly rubs:

"I take my pregnancy VERY seriously and would never put on a pair of 7 or 8" heels if I wasn't completely comfortable and confident in them," McLean wrote on her blog. "Strapping on these heels and strutting to the pole, completely confident and aware, with my heels as an extension of my legs I feel completely comfortable! To be honest I am more clumsy at home barefoot than I am in a studio with sky-high stilettos on."

Still, she wrote that she avoided inversions and complicated tricks during her pregnancy. But splits in gigantic heels were a different story:

And soon, she'll get to do flips once again—she gave birth to a healthy baby boy this past week.

Hooray! Sad Pawpaw finally got the massive cookout he deserves.

0

That sad Papaw you might've read about recently had that new cookout he promised, and it was way more successful than the first time he cooked burgers for people out of the kindness of his Papaw heart. BuzzFeed News reports that over 1,500 people arrived from all over the country for the event, in spite of Papaw's prediction that it'd only be around 400-500 people.

Take the Papaw journey from the start, where it all began with one sad, sad photo:

https://twitter.com/kelssseyharmon/status/710257327031451648?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

After the photo went incredibly viral and made everyone as depressed as they were hungry, Papaw figured he'd try another cookout, but this time he'd make it an open invitation so he'd have people to eat with if his fair-weather grandkids didn't show up. Here's the invite sent out by his originally no-show grandson Brock:

https://twitter.com/BHarmon_10/status/711011922926133248?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

The cookout was a rousing success. According to BuzzFeed, Papaw fans allegedly traveled to Oklahoma all the way from places like Los Angeles and Minnesota to get one of the 2,000 burgers Papaw cooked up, buy a t-shirt that says "I ate a burger with Sad Papaw," or wait 45 minutes in line to take a photo with the man himself.

https://twitter.com/vickybumgarner/status/713795186426445824https://twitter.com/GrantHermesKWTV/status/713785389387874304https://twitter.com/JasonBretWells/status/713906395775574016https://twitter.com/rachelzarrell/status/714506221143744513https://twitter.com/BuzzFeedNews/status/713905230069403648https://twitter.com/tamerra_nikol/status/713823850497069057?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw

The profit margins must've been large for Papaw and his Harmon kin, with over 2,000 burgers, hot dogs, and bratwursts sold at $2 a piece and over 1,300 t-shirts sold for $16 each. Brock Harmon told BuzzFeed the money's going to Papaw: "He’s going to do whatever he wants to do with it."

And it doesn't stop there. Allegiant Airlines reportedly gave Papaw and the Harmon family "an all-expenses paid trip to Florida at the cookout." On top of that, Hefty even sent free party and clean-up supplies after they decided get in on this PR opportunity too.

Free trash bags?! Sadly eating a burger turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to this sad, sad Papaw.

A new museum will have an exhibit devoted to Bill Cosby, but ignoring one pesky detail.

0
0

You can almost hear the petitions being passed around from here. The new National Museum of African American History and Culture in Washington D.C., which is slated to open in September 2016, plans to celebrate Cosby's contribution to television and comedy without mentioning that really bad thing he is accused of doing (drugging and sexually assaulting several women over several decades). 

The museum will feature eleven exhibitions and over 3000 artifacts depicting all sides of African-American culture. The exhibitions will focus on a host of different topics, including music, slavery, segregation, and the military. Cosby will be lightly featured in an exhibit called "Taking the Stage" with a few objects from his television days (well, the days he was on television playing a role, not the days he is on television being escorted to court). 

Bill Cosby headed to his preliminary hearing.

Museum director Lonnie G. Bunch told the New York Times "Curators at the museum said that they felt his achievements should stand alone."

Cosby's accusers disagree. They believe that if Cosby is to be featured in the museum at all, his accusations should accompany his accomplishments. Many of his accusers stepped forward to speak about it, including Beth Ferrier, who accused Cosby of sexual assault. Ferrier said she wanted a label mentioning the allegations next to any mention of Cosby in the museum, “A label is the only way I would agree to it. We’ve been labeled.” 

Beth Ferrier

Kristina Ruehli said she did not think Mr. Cosby deserved to be celebrated by the museum, but if he was going to be, that they should be including a label. And Patricia Leary Steuer, who accused Cosby of raping her in the 70s, says "If they just speak about the contributions, there will be this enormous presence that is not talked about."

In the understatement of the century, Bunch told the Times"he understands that, given the subject matter, not everyone will be happy with all of the curatorial decision-making."

Parents crashed their daughter's high school dance, and she reacted accordingly.

A pair of cool parents crashed their daughter's ninth grade dance for her embarrassment and the Internet's entertainment. The dad, Judd Bagley, posted the video Saturday night, writing, "Beth had her 9th grade night dance and asked us not to chaperone. We respected her wishes but did decide to drop in and see what she was up to. Priceless reaction."

While they ended up not actually "respecting her wishes," they did generate a video on par with any of Lucille Bluth's reactions to Gene Parmesan. It is a combination of pure horror and shame.

Chris Pratt celebrated Easter the same way Pontius Pilate did.

Christ Pratt decided to put the "Chris" in "Christ" this Easter by building a huge, life-size cross, much like Pontius Pilate did before him. Pratt, however, did not go full Pilate—installing the cross for celebration ,rather than crucifixion. (No Jesuses were harmed in the hauling of this cross.)

Pratt chronicled his version of the stations of the cross with handy, step-by-step instructions on Instagram.

Step one: Pick the spot. (The cross goes well with the flag for some peak 'Merica.)

https://www.instagram.com/p/BDejFxajHD5/?taken-by=prattprattpratt&hl=en

Step two: Haul it (or as Jesus would say, "schlep").

https://www.instagram.com/p/BDejK1AjHEE/?taken-by=prattprattpratt&hl=en

Step three: Stop for a break at your favorite station.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BDejQqHDHES/?taken-by=prattprattpratt&hl=en

Step four: Dig the hole.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BDejS6rDHEY/?taken-by=prattprattpratt&hl=en

Step five: Get it level.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BDejWfbjHEg/?taken-by=prattprattpratt&hl=en

Step six: Cement it in.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BDejYjFDHEl/?taken-by=prattprattpratt&hl=en

Step seven: Have a happy Easter!

https://www.instagram.com/p/BDejcQVjHEx/?taken-by=prattprattpratt&hl=en

With this level of dedication, Pratt would probably build the dopest nativity scene. Let's hope for next December!

Crying baby overcomes life's struggles, wins baby race at Sacramento Kings game.

The Sacramento Kings and health care company Kaiser Permanente hosted a baby race during the Kings' March 27 game against the Portland Trail Blazers. This race was even more spectacular than previous ones the Kings and the Kaiser co-hosted for two reasons: one, it was on Easter and bunny ears were thus involved, and two, this race also featured a stellar comeback from an underdog.

At first, tearful little Micah had no chance of winning. Then, as luck would have it, his main competitor got distracted, and Micah inched to the finish line, despite his blinding tears and possible distractions from some tasty-looking snacks.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2-q6sVH1mwE

Micah, what a champ. He made it through whatever nightmares he was enduring to drag himself to the end.

A lot happens at these baby races. Skip to :54 in the video below to watch a little kid at a March 13 race take a nap on the same floor upon which countless athletes have sweated.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNiugdoEcD8

This also has begged the question: what has happened to these kids that they're totally falling apart mid-race?

It's like they already know so much of the world.


Real redheads get a discount at this Welsh restaurant that will not let you dye.

The owner of a new restaurant opening in Prestatyn, Wales is only a "former ginger" thanks to a receding hairline, but he has fond memories of his time with (red) hair. So fond, in fact, that it'll cost gingers 20% less to eat at his restaurant than it'll cost blondes, brunettes, or people with any other non-red hair color. The place is unapologetically named "Ginger's Grill." 

https://www.facebook.com/gingersgrill1/photos/a.304342403023485.1073741828.304333846357674/339962656128126/?type=3

This almost makes up for the U.K.'s most ancient crime against gingers—killing off Fred Weasley.

"I am a former ginger myself before I started losing my hair and decided to shave it all off so I know what it is like to be a ginger," said owner Mark Linaker. What is it like to be a ginger? Getting mocked and overpaying for food, apparently. "The deal will be 20% off a meal for a genuine ginger."

Genuine, apparently, being the operative word.

Imposters like Amy Adams can pay full price.

In case you haven't heard, Amy Adams is naturally a blonde. Mark Linaker, if you're reading—do not serve her. Forget the discount, just don't serve her. Amy Adams has deceived America. 

Woman's zoo selfie gets a little help from a baboon monkeying around in the background.

Julie Harrison was on spring break last week, like the party animal she is, she took a selfie at the Knoxville zoo (Spring Break forever!). The pic includes a baboon in the background that appears to photobomb her attempt. It's not clear why she would be taking a selfie of half her face with an empty baboon enclosure before she got photobombed, but either way, that baboon is really hamming it up for the camera:

The only thing baboons at the zoo love more than posing for selfies is seeing a good magic trick.

Crushing an alarm clock with a hydraulic press is the most satisfying revenge imaginable.

Hitting the snooze button ultimately makes you feel more tired, we all know that, and throwing your alarm clock across the room can only bring you so much satisfaction—so why not watch the delightfully accented husband and wife team of the Hydraulic Press Channel render one into a pancake, instead? The result is something straight out of Looney Tunes or Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and it is the revenge you always wanted to get on that ringing demon of punctuality.

Taylor Swift smashed eggs with her brother this Easter because wasting food is a game to her.

Taylor Swift Instagrammed a series of video clips documenting the sickeningly healthy sibling relationship she has with her brother Austin, which involves an Easter game where they smash painted eggs together in the hopes that the other's egg will smash first. If this vile practice is a Swift family tradition, it is possible that hundreds, if not thousands, of perfectly edible eggs have been wasted by dozens upon dozens of generations in the Swift lineage.

Jealous woman figures out perfect revenge and sends her lover's dick pics to his mom.

Businessman Colby Kirmse, 40, met former Victoria's Secret model Heather Payne, 42, on Tinder. Kirmse says they'd only gone on a few dates when Payne showed up at his East Village apartment on the morning of July 24 in a good ol' fashioned jealous rage. According to court papers obtained by The New York Post, she allegedly punched Kirmse in the face, threw his remote control out the window, knocked his TV off its stand, hurled his laptop across the room, and adding insult to injury, sent dick pics she found on his phone to his mother.

Payne was pissed because she'd found out Kirmse had been sending other women sexy texts, including pictures of his private parts, which were really not quite so private anymore. Kirmse said, “My mom was like, ‘What are all these pictures of erections?’” Not, of course, that his mother hadn't seen his junk before—although maybe not in its adult form. Still, she probably didn't need to know that her son was sending pictures of his dong around like a chain letter.

L: Dick pic sender, R: dick pic taker. Not pictured, mom: dick pic receiver.

Payne was charged with “assault, attempted assault, harassment and criminal mischief,” but last week she took a plea deal that will wipe her record clean after six months of good behavior. Good behavior meaning no more coming in like a wrecking ball. She also had to pay Kirmse $2,951 for his destroyed electronics. But according to Kirmse, the worst part was Payne sending his mom those dick pics. 

The moral of this story? Tinder is evil, and everyone should be aware. 

Some of the biggest names in comedy gathered at Garry Shandling's house for one last pickup basketball game.

The late comedian and actor Garry Shandling was remembered by several celebrities that gathered at his house to play a pickup basketball game in his honor. Shandling passed away last Thursday, and his legacy was immediately remembered and memorialized by the comedy community.

Shandling had held a weekly pickup basketball game at his house in Los Angeles, which was frequented by many famous comedians and actors. Judd Apatow posted a pic of the group at Shandling's house:

https://www.instagram.com/p/BDfE46OSs5z/?taken-by=juddapatow

In attendance were Sarah Silverman, Kevin Nealon, Jeffrey Tambor, Paul Rudd, Apatow and many others (who can you spot?). After Shandling's passing, several of the biggest names in comedy and acting recalled him as a mentor:

There were a lot of funny people on that court. It's no surprise that a mentor to so many famed comedic actors would draw so many friends to his basketball game every week.

Chrissy Teigen said that Jon Lovitz's new, much younger girlfriend Jessica Lowndes was a prank. She was right.

Chrissy Teigen, Internet truth-teller, took on the newest and strangest relationship to hit the Internet today: 58-year-old comedian Jon Lovitz and 27-year-old Jessica Lowndes. And Teigen, being Teigen, called bullsh*t.

https://twitter.com/chrissyteigen/status/714472710533808128https://twitter.com/chrissyteigen/status/714473094300041216

Now Teigen's got you wondering what sort of devious trick she's up to for April first (oh God, what if she isn't really pregnant?). But here's the thing: Teigen was right. Chrissy Teigen was right and every pop culture website on the Internet—this one included—was wrong.

https://www.instagram.com/p/BDgnlQ3nwkl/

"I know it's the last week of March," Lowndes says in a new Instagram video. "But is it too early to say... April Fool's?" She then pans to a music video featuring herself and Lovitz. 

Teigen, it's time to toss out that silly old modeling career. You need to be writing for the Internet.


22 brave pets who took on bees and sorta won.

0
0

Pets are brave, wonderful creatures full of adventure and curiosity—which is exactly the combination of traits you need to go nose-to-nose with a bee. Or a bunch of bees. As painful as this is (humans have been known to get stung as well, so maybe you're familiar), it also results in pets being turned into cartoon creatures. If your pet is stung, first: call your vet. They will most likely recommend Benadryl (adult or children's depending on the size of the animal), although please take your pet to the vet immediately if you're at all concerned. Then take a picture. In all likelihood, though, your pet's bee encounter will just result in a funny photo and a (probably) unlearned lesson in humility.

1. This cat either needs to admit it has a bee problem or a drinking problem.

2. "Don't worry, boss, I took them out with my face!"

3. "That was delicious. That was a delicious bee. May I have more?"

4. This is, believe it or not, a real dog named Barney and not a cartoon dog named Goofy.

5. "The second, third, and fourth bees didn't taste as good as the first."

6. "I ab a Doberbam Pinfer, moft fearfome of all doggies."

7. "I got stung by a bee, not bit by a zombie. Let me in!"

8. "No, really, it helps me smell better."

9. "I shall remember each and every one of your laughs on this day, master."

10. This is probably the most painful-looking one in this series, but somehow also the most adorable.

11. His nose somehow looks even more powerful than usual.

12. As if the cat was going to suddenly start caring just because you got stung.

13. I know it's probably painful, but that swollen paw just looks so fluffy.

14. Maybe he's just allergic to his own adorableness?

15. His paw says "ow," but his face says "worth it."

16. I'm sure this pup will somehow regain confidence in his/her looks.

17. It's like someone forgot not to feed him after midnight, but only a little bit.

18. How to bulk up really quickly:

View post on imgur.com

19. "She's alright- still running around and wanting to play :)" says the owner of this brave bee-fender.

20. This Golden Retriever wound up going to the vet, but it was just an opportunity to meet new friends!

21. This is a bee-sting list, true, but a place of honor must be given to this Shiba Inu who courageously ate a scorpion. The Internet's hats are off to you, brave doge.

http://didlo.tumblr.com/post/141848251426/didlo-she-ate-a-scorpion-okay-guys-here

And finally, an oldie but a goodie:

Grandfather just wanted to go viral for his 98th birthday like a classic millennial.

A Massachusetts man (or possibly his granddaughter, it's pretty unclear) had just one humble request for his 98th birthday: to go viral. Granddaughter Julia Gaswell shared the photo three weeks ago, asking Facebook users to respect their elders and make his dream come true. Grampa Geswell simply asked for as many likes as he has years under his belt, and he succeeded! He got 98 likes. Plus an additional 67,000.

https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=922590347854597&set=a.101606766619630.3560.100003109207424&type=3&theater

My daughter does not think I can get 98 likes for being 98 years old. Can we prove her wrong?

(Please share!)

1 Like = RESPECT!!!

If only respecting your elders was always as easy as clicking "Like."

March 28th is the big day, and people shared birthday wishes from all around the world.  

Happy birthday, Grampa! And remember kids, do not lose hope. You can always go viral in your old age. 

As we imagine this grampa would say, "Thanks for the likes, now get off my lawn!"

Son of sleazy NYC landlord caught on tape calling Uber driver a 'minimum wage f****ot.'

0
0

Looks like the Internet has a new villain to aim its anger at, and his name is Jake Croman. Croman was caught on camera verbally berating an Uber driver near the University of Michigan, where Croman is a student as well as a member of the Tau Kappa Epsilon fraternity. As Croman calls Uber driver Artur Zawada a "minimum wage f****t" and a "little piece of s**t" in the video, many of Croman's friends stand by, grinning. Warning: extremely NSFW language. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=12VeNY-QoYA

Zawada uploaded this video to YouTube along with this statement in the comments section:

Ladies and gentlemen :)).... This is 4th time that I have been harassed by this rider and his friends. Nov. Dec. and twice in March. I told him on 3rd occasion that I requested Uber to banned him but he is/was using friends accounts. Told him and his friends that I will not take them and that he/they need to get out of my car..... For that I was falsely accused, called names etc. 4th time... Rider knew from Uber application who is the driver. He had option to cancel to avoid any issues but he/they proceeded to abuse, [harass], belittle and provoke like kindergarten thugs.

Geez. Haven't Jake Croman's parents taught him any manners?  Guess not. Croman's father is notorious NYC landlord StevenCroman, who has landed on The Village Voice's "The Ten Worst New York City Landlords" list...twice. According to the NY Daily News, Croman has used intimidation and harassment to try to bully people out of their valuable rent-controlled apartments. Tenant Cordelia Winston told her story of dealing with Croman's harassment to the NY Daily News:

Cordelia Winton returned first on July 19, and when she arrived, tenants told her someone had cranked the steam heat in the building on July 4 high enough to cause steam to pour out from her apartment into the hall.

When she opened the door, she gazed upon a disaster.

The heat was so extreme, wine bottles had uncorked, spewing their contents on the floor. A glass cabinet shattered, wood shelves warped and collapsed, the plastic spray arm in the sink melted, an outlet popped out of the wall and the ceiling and walls bubbled.

If they’d left their cats behind as they usually do, they’d have two dead kitties, the Wintons said.

It is easy see why so many people are saying Jake is a chip off the 'ol block.

Jake's parents, Steven and Harriet Croman.

But don't accuse Jake Croman of total douche-baggery quite yet. Of course, there are two sides of every story, and Jake claims that his outburst was not unprovoked. He says that he was retaliating after Zawada was discriminating against him for being Jewish. Both Croman and Zawada spoke to The Tab:

Jake Croman, the student shown in the video, has responded to our request for comment. He alleges the video “shows one side of an argument I had with an Uber driver” and says the driver made an offensive remark and “refused to pick me up on the basis of my religion.” We have asked him to substantiate that claim and we are waiting to hear back from him.

He goes on: “I am not proud of my reaction to his discrimination and I regret my choice of words. Shortly after the verbal altercation, I filed a complaint with the Ann Arbor police department and they are now dealing with the issue.”

Zawabe, who has a 4.8 out of 5 star rating on Uber, has denied those claims outright. 

A spokesperson for the University of Michigan had this to say:

We have seen the video. Our dean of students has talked with both the Uber driver and the students. We are extremely disappointed in the behavior depicted in this video. No one should be treated with such disrespect.

A national spokesperson for Tau Kappa Epsilon, meanwhile, said they are planning on launching an investigation into this incident and "depending on the details of the investigation, this could include the expulsion of membership."

Both Zawada and Croman are suspended from Uber as the incident is being investigated. 

Texas police concoct Ebola hoax on Facebook to lure in drug users, mostly bring in Internet hate.

0
0

Capitalizing on the fear that Ebola struck in the hearts of many Americans not too long ago, the Granite Shoals Police Department in Texas posted a most devious notice to its Facebook page last week, according to ABC 7. The department shared some "breaking news" that was essentially a blatant lie meant to entrap drug users who trust whatever they read on Facebook. As of Monday afternoon, the department had removed all the Facebook posts related to this incident, but not until after several outlets, including someecards, had picked up the story.

Here's the text from the initial Facebook post:

Breaking News: Area Meth and Heroin Supply Possibly Contaminated With Ebola.

Meth and Heroin recently brought in to Central Texas as well as the ingredients used to make it could be contaminated with the life threatening disease Ebola. If you have recently purchased meth or heroin in Central Texas, please take it to the local police or sheriff department so it can be screened with a special device. DO NOT use it until it has been properly checked for possible Ebola contamination! Contact any Granite Shoals PD officer for testing. Please share in hopes we get this information to anyone who has any contaminated meth or heroin that needs tested.

The general reaction from commenters was that this was hilarious and nobody would fall for it:

But someone proved them wrong:

The following is PUBLIC INFORMATION. 
And the winner of the Facebook post challenge is: Name HOPSON, CHASITY EUGINA

Chasity came in to the police and is now facing charges. Meanwhile, people continued to debate the merits of baiting drug users to a police station:

While I admit this is very funny. 
However my laughter was short lived when I I consider the risk / reward to it,
Benefit: you catch a very few met heads. Who will spend a questionable amount of time custody with little chance of changing their lives. Recover a small amount of drugs. 
Detriment: Further loss of trust in police. The police will be seen as not there to help you. Anyone in the future that trust the police will help them will be laughed at by their peers. And this story will be retold.
I believe peace officers all over this country are ultimately the loser in this joke.

Retired state peace officer.

What happens if some tweaker reads this after they've used 'tainted' meth and does something desperate and hurts themselves or someone else?

In response to the mild backlash, the police department released a Facebook statement that might not be worth your time to read, but just know there's a Jimmy Buffet quote in there:

I'm sorry but I feel this post needs to be sent out again:

I hope you liked our last post. Looks like about 99% of our followers got it. However, there were a few that thought we (GSPD) were being “unprofessional” by posting something of humorous nature. So here is a quick thought on the GSPD and law enforcement:

Many law enforcement agencies have Facebook® accounts. Most post minimal information, if anything at all. Some use it only to post information about suspects they are looking for. Others reach out to the community and show ways officer and the citizens interact. Others post about In The Line of Duty Death notices. We do all of the above and add the personal flair of the officers of this department.

Law enforcement is one of the best and worst careers to have. We get to help people. However, we also mainly see people at their worst or worst times of their lives. It’s rare for us to see you having your best time. The news only wants to show law enforcement at our worst times and not at our best. Only dirty laundry sells advertising time. This is not to say all law enforcement officers are saints. Just like any group, there is a bad apple or two that can tarnish all of the work of thousands of honest, caring professionals. Also, we have just split seconds to make life and death choices, while everyone else can re-play, in slow motion, for months on end armchair quarterbacking the actions of officers. And trust me, the story you see on the 6 o’clock news is not the whole story.

The current atmosphere in this country, at least according to the news media, is anti-police. This career can eat your soul. Law enforcement continually ranks as the profession with the highest rate of suicide, divorce, and substance abuse. This is not to mention PTSD and other medical disorders. The average life expectancy of a police officer who has a career in the field is ten (10) years LESS than the average American.

Let’s not forget that unlike a solider in a war zone, we can be called upon to respond to situations that can be more confusing and more dangerous than Bagdad. While we don’t (yet) have to worry about roadside IED’s, police are being targeted at an alarming rate. This year ALONE there have been twenty six (26) In The Line of Duty Deaths of law enforcement officers in the United States, and nine (9) K-9 officers. That is an unacceptable number and the current political atmosphere will not even address the problem.

So we at the GSPD like to show all parts of the enforcement world on Facebook® and that includes our sense of humor. To quote Jimmy Buffet, Changes in Latitude Changes in Attitude, “If we couldn't laugh, we would all go insane.” Look for more posts to come that include suspects we are seeking information on, safety updates, interactions with citizens, In The Line of Duty Deaths, and things that make us laugh. I hope this will allow you to see who we are, humans, just like you. We have families, friends, lives, laugh, cry, and bleed all the same.

In short, 'twas a hoax and the Granite Shoals PD isn't sorry for it. Also, cops like Jimmy Buffet.

You might want to barf a little when you see this blackhead removal, but you'll keep watching.

Every week or so, Someecards likes to highlight the fantastic work of Dr. Pimple Popper, because the writers and editors here are sickos. This is a particularly juicy extraction: an inflamed back blackhead that's positively bursting with pus. Yummy!
