Bad Neighbors
Rarely do we see Bad Neighbors get their comeuppance, but these brilliant minds are firing a cannonball back in the direction of their porch pirates.
Have you had a bad experience with your packages getting stolen? The conversation lives on Facebook!
Christmas decoration fails that will have you rolling!
With some of these decorating fails, you have to hope that their hearts were in the right place. Some of them though, you wonder how they couldn’t see it… like some of these…
Here’s more!
A dancing cactus kid’s toy taught children some naughty things!
A grandma ordered a dancing and singing toy cactus for her grandkids. It sang in English, Spanish, and Polish. She understood the Polish song since she speaks it, and suddenly realized that the innocent kid’s toy was swearing and talking about using cocaine. The song it was singing is by Polish rapper Cypis, who didn’t know it was used for the dancing cactus either. The grandma complained and the rapper is planning on taking legal action. Walmart has pulled the “educational toy” form it’s website. Guess the children will have to wait a few more years until they find out about that naughty stuff.
You won’t believe what this woman sells…
She’s selling her flatulence, in a jar! Here’s her “day in the life” of what she eats in order to produce so much methane to stay in business. How do they remain fresh you ask? She stores them in jars with flower petals, then leaves a personalized note for each person that purchases them. Like a poem? Beans, beans the magical fruit…
Travis Barker and Avril Lavigne performed their new song on Fallon!
Avril Lavigne’s new song “Bite Me” featuring Travis Barker is coproduced by Barker, John Feldman, and Mod Sun. She recently signed to Barker’s label as well, DTA Records. Here they are on Fallon!

Some Thanksgiving perspective, thanks from Mark Hoppus of blink-182
A message of thanks on Turkey Day 2021 takes on a whole new meaning when it’s from Mark Hoppus of blink-182.
Mark is free and clear of the cancer he battled this year — so to go from Stage 4 to nothing, I would imagine he has nothing but gratitude. On Instagram, he gave a message of hope and perspective:
“I have so much to be thankful for today. This photo is from June, halfway through chemo, no idea if it was working or not, relegated to the bathroom floor, retching. If I ever complain about something trivial or unimportant, please show me this photo to remind me of how bad things can be, and how truly blessed I am. I hope you all have an amazing day with friends and family. Happy Thanksgiving.”
Words for us all to keep in mind. — [eric]

Love to eat turrrrrkey!
Happy Thanksgiving!

Woman swallows AirPod by mistake: thought it was ibuprofen
A woman in Boston is sharing a warning — don’t store your ibuprofen in the same container that hold your AirPods.
While not paying 100% attention, she downed what she thought was a painkiller with a bottle of water. It turned out to be — not a painkiller.
The video was shared on TikTok this month by user Carli B (@iamcarliiib), who also shared a few follow up videos — including an apparent voice memo she recorded while the Apple product was, ummm…..in transit inside her body?
This isn’t the first story we’ve shared about eating AirPods. So — let’s see if we can avoid anymore repeats, shall we? [Video Below: WARNING, NSFW Language]
