One thing I always find amusing about summer is the Lobster People. No, these are not people with weird deformities that cause them to resemble a delicious and...
Man's disgusting best friend
Where would the world be without dogs? They are man’s best friend, loyal companion and are great at cleaning up food dropped on the floor. I never truly...
