Several cars in a Dutch Formula 2 race missed a pigeon the track by centimeters as it slowly walked across. It was like watching the expert level of Frogger. Not once, not twice, but seven times this dare-devil bird stayed course, until he finally flew off. Smart move pigeon.

Foo Fighters’ UK tribute to Taylor, in a word: impassioned
To say that it is difficult to rank the best moments of the UK version of the Taylor Hawkins Tribute Show is an understatement — which, in itself, should tell you the amazing display of love musicians from across all genres and generations showed last night for the the band’s late drummer, Taylor Hawkins.
How about a teenage Shane Hawkins taking his father’s place?
Or Dave Grohl — with pure raw emotion on display in “Times Like These”?
Pitchfork runs down the highlights from the all-star tribute, which included a surprise appearance from Sir Paul McCartney, among other musical legends. And check out some of the video clips below. Don’t forget, the US version is still to come — September 27th at the Kia Forum in L.A.
Planet of the Apes is no Longer Sci-Fi!
Looks like someone got a little to close to King Louis over here. An orangutan grabbed a man through the cage and held him there with ease.
What would you have done in this situation? The conversation lives on Facebook!
This is not a drill! Twitter is FINALLY adding an edit button
It’s only taking the entirety of their existence, but Twitter has finally heard the masses!
The social media company has confirmed that it is currently testing the functionality of an edit button. After employees get a chance to put some miles on it, it will then be rolled out to subscribers of Twitter Blue, the premium subscription version offered by the company.
To prevent abuse of the feature, Wired is reporting that you will only have a 30-minute window and “only a few” opportunities to edit what you send out there.
As for when the rest of us get it? After they work out the kinks. So that could mean — before the end of the year?
Catching up with Tove Lo
I am so happy anytime I have to opportunity to catch up with the incredible Tove Lo (Toovah Lu iykyk) Such a creative free spirit, it’s hard not to be inspired by her. We chat about sampling for the first time on 2 Die 4 (Hot Butter’s Popcorn) and how quickly the song came together, Tove Lo as a BDE Wonder Woman, Scorpio-an woman and the other superheroines we will see on Dirt Femme (which comes out October 14th!) <3 Lauren
Man got stung buy 20,000 bees- and he’s alive!
20-year-old Austin Bellamy was in a medically-induced coma over the weekend at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center after being stung by over 20,000 bees and ingesting 30 of them! He had been trimming trees when he unknowingly cut into a giant freakin’ bee hive! His mom said he looked like a porcupine with all of the stingers, some an inch long, lodged in his head. It looks like he’s going to have a full recovery though.
Johnny Depp pulled WHAT out of his backside?!
According to Kate Moss, when she dated Johnny Depp, he gave her a diamond necklace. They were her first diamonds! There was another first though too with this gift, it was the first time she received a present from someone’s backside. Yes, Johnny Depp took the necklace out of his, umm, crack. She said he told her he had something on his “bum” and actually asked her to take a look for him. Moss grabbed the necklace out and wore it paired with a white dress for one of her most iconic looks, says Vogue.

Rejoice! Twitter is finally getting an “edit” button
It’s true! Twitter finally is releasing an edit button, so no more getting 367 likes on a Tweet then realizing you spelled two words wrong. So aggravating! The company is a little late to the game on this feature, but better late than never. Twitter Blue subscribers will receive access later this month, according to Twitter. Tweets will be able to be edited “a few times” for up to 30 minutes after they are first posted.
Plane gives middle finger to Washington state
On August 29th, a FlightAware map shows a pilot to be tracing something in the sky over Washington state. What else could it be other than the middle finger? Maybe an ex lives there?
Woman calls 9-1-1 after getting stuck upside down at 24 hour gym
A woman was caught hanging around a gym — hanging upside and needing help from first responders.
A TikTok user posted the video proof. Turns out she was very excited to show off exercises on an inversion table. So — she set up her phone to record herself. Little did she know she was going to record an incredibly embarrassing moment.
Turns out she was working out at a 24 hour fitness center at 3AM — and with no one nearby her, she ended up stuck completely upside down:
Oops. But good thing she was wearing her Apple Watch. She used it to summon help — and try and explain her, ummm….unique predicament.
Glad it turned out okay — no pun intended.
Eric Kristensen is an on-air personality for Q101 in Chicago — and while not currently hanging upside down, he is definitely a little more twisted than your average friend. Maybe you add him on Instagram?
Tyler Joseph of twenty one pilots slips on a drumstick onstage
Tuesday night, twenty one pilots were playing a near-hometown show in Cleveland, OH when at one point, drummer Joshua Dun allegedly dropped one of his drumsticks on the stage so that his bandmate and best friend would later slip and fall, twisting his ankle and slicing up his knee. Is this a sign of a deeper rift going on between the two?! Did Tyler accidentally step on Josh’s toe before the show and this was cold-blooded revenge? Is Josh mad Tyler didn’t wear matching boxer briefs when they accepted the Grammy for Stressed Out? Does Josh want to be a one-man band?!
No. It was a total accident and Josh feels really bad about it. But Tyler is such a badass he finished the show and made the best of a slippery situation.
After such a trauma, the clique immediately came to the rescue with a painfully accurate reenactment, Unsolved Mysteries quality. Well done, @SamTheProud
Sad drummer and bestie posts apology for all of the the internet to see.
Get well soon, Tyler. Make Josh buy you two dinners. Oh and I’ve got a chance for you to score a trip to Seattle to catch the last twenty one pilots show on the Icy Tour coming at 2:30p xo <3 Lauren
FOX ATTTACK!
Whoa! This fox went crazy on this lady!
Tennis star hugs her dad… differently
Sara Bejlek, a 16-year-old tennis player from Czechia, got a hug from her dad after a match and some people are wondering if it’s too touchy-feely… what do you think?
Do They Belong To The Streets?!
She found a cigarette butt with lipstick and THIS was his excuse… at least at first…
Ahoy my favorite people! My boyfriend belongs to the streets and I have to tell you how I found out. On Sunday I worked a graveyard shift and when I got home I noticed a cigarette butt with pink lipstick on it in my boyfriends ashtray. I don’t smoke and either do any of my friends so right away I knew there was a problem. I took a picture of it and sent it to him. At first he denied knowing anything about it. At one point he tried saying “the wind or a bird must have picked it up” which I thought was the worst excuse until I heard his next one. After hours of crying and fighting he looked me in the eyes and told me that sometimes he puts on my lipstick when I’m gone. He said he misses me a lot and was ashamed to tell me he did this. I went from crying to laughing in his face. I asked him to go get the lipstick he used and after fumbling around in the bathroom for a few minutes he comes out with eyeliner. What a freaking liar! For laughs and revenge I made him put the eyeliner on his lips to show me how he did it. I packed up some stuff, grabbed the dogs and went to my parents house. I am heartbroken and frustrated I wasted two years but I’m extremely happy I found out before we got married and had kids. Sorry to dump my sad story on you guys but I thought you’d find his excuse funny. Thanks for being the only thing stable in my life right now. I love you and hope to see you at Riot Fest! 
Am I The Jerk? He could’ve helped her…
Is he the jerk for not helping with groceries? Even though he paid her to do it?
I had a moment the other day that as it was happening I was thinking to myself “am I a jerk for this?” I ordered a bunch of groceries and when they showed up it started raining really hard. I didn’t want to get wet and I’m paying for the service so I didn’t help the delivery woman. I just stood there watching her through the window get wetter and wetter with every trip. Around the 6th trip back and fourth I started to feel guilty and went out to help her but by then she was already done. She was very sweet and reminded me a lot of my polish grandmother. I tipped her $5, does that prevent me from being a jerk or am I still a jerk for not helping her? Yes she’s old and yes it was raining but I paid for a service, I didn’t pay to help. Do you guys think I am a jerk for this?
Dolly Parton has a clothing line for dogs… it’s called Doggy Parton
America’s sweetheart, Dolly Parton, just got even cuter with her dog clothing line called, “Doggy Parton.” A portion of the proceeds from Dolly’s and Billy’s “pet” project will go to Willa B. Farms, a Nashville-based animal rescue organization, “where animals in need find never-ending love,” Dolly said.
