Some Guy Registered Beer as a Service Animal
Per the Americans with Disabilities Act, a "service animal" is a dog or a miniature horse that's trained to perform tasks for people with disabilities. That classification provides legal protections like allowing dogs into establishments that are otherwise unfriendly to pets.
It's not the same thing, however, as an "emotional support animal," an animal that helps a person's state of mind—sometimes by the suggestion of a doctor—and isn't included under the ADA. That classification has included creatures from ducks to alligators to the emotional support peacock someone tried to bring onto a United Airlines flight in 2018, a term with such flexibility that it has certainly caused a backlash for the entire category of assistive animals. Early last month, for example, a man in Arizona registered a beehive as a service animal to prove it was "too easy" to do so.
And of course, someone has gone and one-upped that: In late December, a Brooklyn resident named Floyd Hayes registered beer—yes, the beverage—as his "service animal," as first reported by Ale Street News. As with the beehive, this was done via the website USAServiceDogRegistration.com, where "Beer" (style unspecified) is now listed as an emotional support animal for Hayes' social anxiety disorder. "I travel from upstate to Brooklyn a lot, and on the bus they say its a federal crime to smoke or have an alcoholic beverage unless by prior written contest [sic], and I always wondered where you get that consent," Hayes told Brooklyn Paper.

Buckeyes are best
“Medical Stool Donor Needed. $100 [per week]. Yep, you read it right. I need your poo!”

I had wondered why the band Boy & Bear took so long before their latest album... turns out their frontman Dave was looking for just the right "poo roadie"!

Cop who arrested QB for bird poop mistaken as cocaine, resigns
Back in the summer of 2019, Georgia Southern quarterback Shai Werts was charged with possession of cocaine when there was a mysterious white substance found on the hood of his car. The substance was found to be bird poop and not the drug.
He was pulled over for a routine traffic stop, but the incident made big headlines when the deputy pulling him over mistook one unique white substance for another.
That same deputy is no longer with the Saluda County Sheriff's Office.

Newcastle fan is caught on TV exposing himself to celebrate extra-time FA Cup replay winner by Allan Saint-Maximin against Oxford... which was broadcast live on BBC One!
The unnamed supporter was seen walking forward before he raised his jacket, pulled down his pants and shook his manhood 'like a windmill'.
Footage went viral after Tuesday night's game as fans pointed out that the incident took place just behind a pitchside ad for the sex drug Viagra.
