Weekly Random Post of Random
- Six habits all cat owners will recognize. LOL!
- The real history of tipping is (un)surprisingly racist. In other news, water is wet. :P
- Photographer finds locations of 1960s postcards to see how they look today.
- The Fear Box with John Boyega and Gwendoline Christie. OMG, they are adorable! <3
- Apparently, gay marriage has been around a long time. Someone should tell Mike Pence.
- How other countries think Americans do things. *sigh* Thing is, they're not far off. :/
- I'm not sure how I feel about this. Some people who didn't win Grammies got 'consolation' puppies. One the one hand, PETA is correct (and I almost NEVER agree with them), animals are not toys, but on the other, look at Jerry Seinfeld's face!
- These comics by 'War and Peas' with unexpected endings are hilarious.
- Random insane facts are...random. *g*
- Masks that light up in response to music! Cool, yes, but also a but creepy (in a 'The Purge' sort of way).
- A few weeks back I posted about how UPS drivers often times make friends with the dogs along their routes. Well, as it turns out, it's not just dogs. *g*
- These cakes are almost too gorgeous to eat. Almost. ;)
- And speaking of fake food...Incredibly Realistic Wood Carvings Look Good Enough to Eat.
- Finally, this person inserts their ginger cat into famous pieces of art and it's awesome!
Happy Sunday, all! *smooches* Remember, love trumps hate. ♥

That gun video is hilarious, yet like so many satires, different from reality only in degree.
On the puppy question, I tend to side with PETA (for once). Animals are not toys, and those situations (strange people, noises, smells, and crowds) must be scary for the pups. But cute, definitely. (I'm always surprised when I see current Jerry Seinfield; in my head, he always looks like he did on TV 20+ years ago. Same thing happens when I see myself in a mirror!)
Not surprised about the racist tipping origins. So many economic policies are designed to maintain systemic racial, class, and gender inequality.

*sigh* Yes. I did laugh at the gun vid. Better than crying I suppose.
*nods* This may be the first time PETA and I have agreed on anything. Although I have since found out the puppies were just for cuddling, not for keeping, so that does make me feel a bit better. LOL about Jerry's aging. I know what you mean. In my head I'm still in my mid 30's. :P
Ugh about tipping. I am a generous tipper mainly because those service jobs can really SUCK, so 20% is minimum for me. But OMG, pay people a living wage already! *shakes head*
