Billie Eilish Delivers Powerful Speech Against Body Shaming
It must be really weird and intense to be the biggest artist in the world and barely old enough to buy a lottery ticket. And imagine being the voice of an entire generation while you are in the middle of growing up. So far Billie Eilish seems to have passed every test when it comes to handling all that, and at a recent concert she aired a video with a powerful message against body shaming. She rules. Check it out below for yourself, and make sure you find a way in to the United Center on March 24th to see her yourself if you can!

How to keep cats off the counter
Why do cats hate tin foil? What about it scares them?
Don’t they know how useful it is!
Well if your furry friend won’t stay off the counter you can try putting down some tin foil to keep them away.
HAHA! Dumb cat!
I’m sorry. I’m sure that is a perfectly nice cat.
But at least they’ll stay off those dang counters!
Does this count as a birdie?
That bird left all he had out there on the links. Now that is dedication to the game.
I think the law is that this golfer gets to keep the bird right?
OH MY GOD 😳 (via todd_shannon/Instagram)
Posted by Bleacher Report on Tuesday, March 10, 2020
There’s a 0% chance that I wouldn’t stuff this bird and hang it on the wall as a trophy.
A birdie is a birdie, right? He has to mark that down on his score sheet!
Don’t do this to stay healthy
As COVID-19 spreads throughout the world, so does fear. So these parents are taking extra precautions to try and stay healthy.
However, some of their practices are really… interesting.
Now that is a hazmat suit!
It’s a little holy, and her nose is exposed, but at least her heart is in it!
Make sure to wash your hands and wipe down your kids.

Have you ever tried to fit something into a box that obviously won’t fit?
Well if there’s a will, there’s a way!
That is the human spirit.
What a time to be alive!
What happened to this rooster?
This rooster will surely wake you up in the morning. No doubt.
He could also be a tornado siren, or maybe a broken fire alarm.
He reminds me of those rubber chicken videos that went viral a few years back.
I’m sure the rooster is fine, but I’m no rooster expert so don’t quote me on that.
This grandma is sick of it on her 94th birthday
94 years is definitely something to celebrate unless you’re this grandma.
Grandma has had enough!
She doesn’t care if it’s her birthday! She just wants to go take a nap and watch her shows.
This is either the funniest grandmother out there, or this is just a super depressing video.
I’m praying it’s that first option.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GRANDMA!!!

The darkest children’s TV episode ever
Prepare yourself for the darkest children’s TV show ever.
In the early days of Thomas the Tank Engine, a lying train named Henry was forced to pay the ultimate price for his transgressions. He was essentially buried alive, forced to live out his last days watching helplessly as well-behaving trains zipped by with big smiles plastered onto their smug train faces.
Imagine the horror when Henry was told, “We shall take away your rails and leave you here for always and always and always.” That’s when the “Fat Controller” and his minions built a brick wall to entomb Henry in a tunnel. Shortly thereafter, “his fire had gone out.” And then, the narration: “I think he deserved his punishment… don’t you?” Um, nope. Holy crap. NOPE.
This episode has everything. Pathos. Drama. Suspense. The promise of terrifying children into correcting bad behavior. Check it out:
Road rage never pays
Here is a case of instant karma at its best.
This jerk had a case of road rage and decided to shout at another car on the highway.
Little did he know, there were other cars on the road!
I just feel bad for the innocent person who was just sitting there.
At least there’s a video for that insurance $$$$moneyyyyyyy$$$$.
Costco samples are no more
It is a sad day for humankind.
What kind of world is it where a person can’t walk into a Costco and fill up entirely on samples.
WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO ON WEDNESDAY NIGHTS NOW!?!?!?!
Because of fears over the spread of coronavirus, Costco will be suspending their free samples until further notice.
There is no word on if the samples will come back, all we know is if you head into your local Costco… no samples.
On the bright side, this could be Sams Club’s time to shine.
Matchbox rally racing is super cool
Toy car racing might be the newest, most electric sport out there.
With sports betting on the horizon here in Chicago, I know exactly what my money is going to be placed on.
Is it a little nerdy to recreate an entire rally course for toy cars?
No, absolutely not. This is the coolest thing ever.
This vodka will not sanitize your hands
With fears over the global outbreak of the Corona virus and shortages on hand sanitizer, many people have gone to different means to keep their hands clean to avoid the germs but a vodka company has to come out to tell people that their booze will not do the trick. Tito’s Vodka has made many kicking drink, but the distillery has stomped online chatter out about using their popular vodka to clean your hands with a responsible series of posts on social media.
You have to have 60-70% alcohol content to kill a virus or germs on your hands.
Tito's Vodka has spent the last 24 hours explaining to people that it *cannot* be used as a replacement for hand sanitizer.
God bless Texas. pic.twitter.com/1J08KlgDPI
