Twitter user Nic pointed out the completely absurd names given to the adoptable cats at Austin Pets Alive, an animal shelter located in Austin, Texas. Whoever's job it is to name foster kittens probably had a grand ol' time with this little project. Either that or they give absolutely zero f*cks.
And if you're in the area and interested in adopting a cat, check out their website!
We all know that stereotypes aren't always true, but come on, sometimes you just can't resist 'em. These memes focus on the perpetually made-fun-of southern states - home of sweet tea, twangy accents and second-amendment enthusiasts. You know we love y'all, but the memes were just too good to pass up!
Whooo, boy! The Tenaha Police Department in Texas posted a photo of a recent drug bust - and the internet is going crazy over it. The photo, regarded by most as a meager and piddling seizure, features seventy big ones fanned out, an empty pill bottle and even a water bottle. Naturally, the very eager photo has been meme'd to oblivion by eager content creators. While some of the memes make the seizure seem even more sparse, others just get plain absurd with it, photoshopping salt lamps and Yu-Gi-Oh cards. It seems like the attention has even prompted the police department to disable their Facebook account. Enjoy the fruits of their labor.
Comedian Roy Wood Jr. recently tweeted a story about a prank-gone-wrong that he tried to play on J. Prince, the CEO of Houston-based Rap-A-Lot-Records. Hilarity ensued.
Ayesha Curry is already getting roasted and toasted for her Houston restaurant, International Smoke, that's set to open in July. Rockets fans are apparently still salty over Houston's NBA loss to the Golden State Warriors in Game 7 - which is where Ayesha's husband Steph plays. So salty, in fact, that they've been intentionally leaving terrible Yelp reviews for the her new restaurant, which hasn't even opened yet. The reviews may be mean and uncalled for, but they're certainly provided us with some hearty laughs!
Texas Lieutenant Governor Dan Patrick faced a lot of backlash after he suggested that Friday's school shooting at Santa Fe High School may have been caused by the school having "too many entrances and exits," and not by the shooter's access to firearms. This is what people on Twitter had to say about it...
While we are completely over hurricanes right now, we want to give a shot out to one special hurricane hero. Photographer Scott Olson managed to snap a shot of this VERY pissed off feline swimming in the floods caused by Hurricane Harvey. The viral image has spawned many memes since being posted a week ago on Getty Images. Here are some of our favorites.
Televangelist Joel Osteen is getting destroyed on Twitter for his reluctance to aid displaced Houston residents during Hurricane Harvey. The pastor's massive megachurch can hold over 17,000 people - making it the perfect place to seek refuge during a deadly storm. Osteen falsely claimed the church was inaccessible on Monday, but has since changed his tune. Many people attribute the change of heart to public shaming - and are unabashedly calling the pastor out.
