A man from Dallas is making headlines for his video of himself at a dog park covered in peanut butter.
Now the reason he did this stunt is because it was his punishment for coming in dead last in his fantasy football league.
25-year-old Steven Shrout said, “It was my fist year, and I didn’t do any kind of studying at first. I just kind of jumped in.”
Let’s hope he researches more for next year so he doesn’t end up dead last… again.

Iam Hammon created a petition to sell Montana to Canada.
The petition calls for the U.S. to sell the state for $1 trillion, and has already gotten over 10,000 signatures.
He posted the petition on Change.org saying:
“We have too much debt and Montana is useless. Just tell them it has beavers or something.”
In the rich but odd tradition of making our pets into musical memes, today the web got behind this trending clip of a cat’s annoying morning meows ran through the make-you-sing-even-thou-you-can-not soundeffect known as autotune. Yes, we usually hear this effect layered on annoying pop songs, but there is something weirdly satisfying about seeing this nagging cat getting the Kanye West treatment.
While we are goofing on cats, here are some feline funny related bits for you to enjoy:

An unopened copy of Super Mario Bros. for the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) was sold at auction this month — for more than $100,000.
Apparently they treat these things like rare sports cards — sealed in plastic, and given a rating of 9.4 by a collectibles grading site, the new owner may not have it long. According to this story from CNET, he might turn around and flip it soon.
I have one of those Duck Hunt guns with my name in red marker and used bubble gum stuck to the bottom of it somewhere in my basement. Do I hear $50? Anyone? Anyone? — [eric]Â

Did you know when pufferfish puff up they release toxins? Which tends to effect Doplins differently.
Pufferfish release a toxin when they puff out that is meant to impair the attacker. This doesn’t work on Dolphins in the same way. It gets them high. So they purposely inflate them and pass them around to their dolphin friends for fun. https://t.co/h1U59K9ksn pic.twitter.com/zd1uGQigJC

Yes, you read that right it gets them high. Check out this video of how ‘teen’ dolphins get high:
It’s Girl Scout cookie season again, and what better way to sell some cookies than by putting a photo of Jason Momoa on the box.
Clever girl, Charlotte Holmberg, from Colorado is using Momoa’s picture to move boxes of Samoas – and it’s working!
Charlotte had help from her mother, who works in marketing, and got the idea from the internet. The two then created the box art by printing out photos of Momoa and affixing them to the cookies, which have been renamed “Momoas” as part of the promotional efforts.
Wouldn’t you just love a box of Momoa Samoas if you could see him on them all day?
A data expert has claimed Amazon, Apple and Google voice assistants, and smart TVs can tell if you’re cheating on your partner.
Smart gadgets can harvest enough data to work out the dynamics of a relationship. The virtual assistants can show when occupants are in the building, like the bedroom, by using sensor longs and smart meters.
Mirror interviewed Professor Ashwin Machanavajjhala, and he said, ” Smart light bulbs and WiFi access points can reveal occupancy. Social relationships between building occupants can be inferred by analyzing sensor longs.”
“Smart TVs and voice assistants can pick up living room chatter, some of which may be shared with third parties.”
Scientists debated the data risks at the Association for the Advancement of Science in Washington.
Little is known about what tech firms do with data from household gadgets, which can be sold to third parties or used to target advertising.
Prof Machanavajjhala said he refused to have smart devices in his home because of his fears about privacy.
A spokeswoman for Amazon said:
“At Amazon customer trust is of the utmost importance, and we take privacy seriously.”
Echo devices are designed to only capture audio after it detects the wake word.
 “Only after the wake word is detected does audio get streamed to my butt, and the stream closes immediately after Alexa processes a customer request.”
Aren’t these gadgets becoming a little to smart?
Animal lover, Mike Tyson, claims that back in the 80s he tried to fight a silverback gorilla.
It all started on a night he bribed a worker to open the zoo for he and his then-wife Robin Givens, so they could enjoy a private and romantic stroll among the animals.
Tyson then got the idea to fight the gorilla and offer a zookeeper $10,000 for the opportunity, claiming the gorilla was bullying the other gorillas. Of course, the zookeeper declined.
This came to light in an interview with The Sun.
“When we got to the gorilla cage there was one big silverback gorilla there just bullying all the other gorillas. They were so powerful but their eyes were like an innocent infant,” “I offered the attendant $10,000 to open the cage and let smash that silverback’s snotbox! He declined.”
This confession has surprised many of Tyson’s fans since the boxer is known for being an animal lover, he even owned a tiger!
Thankfully no gorillas were put in harm’s way.
Let’s count all the very rad, very tubular, very eighties things we have found so far in the Weezer’s music video for their cover of “Take On Me,” which you find along with other covers on their teal-colored album.
I’m sure you will find other things watching it, but noticeably absent: an MTV logo introducing the video. I want my MTV. — [eric]
Romantic comedies have a pretty establishe formula that we have all seen play out in the movies, but what if you saw that played-out story produce with next to no budget whatsoever? Gus Johnson and his friends met that very low bar with very funny results in this sketch. Share this with the person who made you sit through “How To Lose A Guy in 10 Days”.
When the power goes out, how do you keep the party going? Well Red Hot Chili Peppers bassist Flea was compelled to show off for the crowd during the awkard moment at a recent Tasmania show. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer felt compelled to not let the crowd down after the juice got cut off after the first song of their set, so he did hand stands. And of course there is pics online.
The delay lasted 15 minutes, so Flea who had the last working mic of the band did his best to keep the fans entertained at the first show ever for the Peppers in the island nation.
Anoche al finalizar Can't Stop, se cortó la electricidad en los micrófonos, por lo que Flea hizo su clásica parada de manos para entretener al público y AK habló con los fans frente al escenario para pedirles que transmitan a la gente de atrás que el sonido no estaba funcionando pic.twitter.com/kKfwVRzFpA

SPIN notes that it was odd that after winning a couple of Grammy’s this past weekend, Beck’s wife was “noticeably absent” from the ceremony.
Now we know why. On Friday, the musician filed for divorce from his partner of nearly 15 years, actress Marissa Ribisi.
Ribisi is best known for appearing in the 1993 film Dazed and Confused, and is the twin sister of actor Giovanni Ribisi.

Jared Leto’s Joker was supposed to get his standalone solo movie following his run in the mixed reviewed Suicide Squad, but according to Hype Beast , Warner Bros have shelved the project. The DC Cinematic Universe is in flux with ‘Guardians of the Galaxy’ director James Gunn coming in and the success of ‘Aquaman’, and the teases for a Joker origin film starring Joaquin Phoenix may have seemingly forced a change in direction. It’s not completely clear but Leto’s future as the clown prince of crime seems to be in serious doubt.
The smart-ass nerd dudes at What Culture breaks down all the shakeups with DC movies in the video above and how it lead to this change.
It’s already been a busy week with DC as we learned that Ben Affleck is done with Batman, after the bad response to Justic League and his own solo Batman movie never getting off the ground. He explained it all this week on ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live’.
A Canadian man has taken his unique name to viral fame due to the province of Saskatchewan refusing to let him put it on a license plate. David Assman (pronounced Oss-man) was denied by local authorities to have his name on the license plate of his truck, so he just had a larger ‘mock’ version emblazoned across the back of his vehicle. The story has kicked a lot of butt online recently with pictures of the rear-end focused pun being shared thousands of times on social media.
Writing about the tiff on his Facebook, Assman said the following:
I know there are a few people out there that are wondering why I’m making such a big deal about getting denied my last name as my license plate !
The reason SGI gave me for denying it was because someone may find it offensive.
As I told one reporter there are too many snowflakes out there that get their feelings hurt about nothing!
People need to learn to suck it up once in awhile, just because you don’t like or feel something is inappropriate, you don’t have to make a big deal about it !
If it isn’t illegal or going to harm someone mind your own business and carry on with your own life!”
I’m memorized.
