Welcome to the world of “sexy dogs”, where owners adorn their pooches with heels, boots, tiaras, and of course the key component: pantyhose.
Some call the sexy dog craze “sick” and “idiotic” while others praise it as “hilarious” and “creative.” Take a look and judge for yourself.
These photos like most pantyhosed dog pics can be found on Sina Weibo often referred to as “China’s Twitter.”

Hey all you beer lovers out there! I want to tell you about the best beer I’ve ever had. It’s a coffee stout made with elephant droppings!
Now, I know what you must be thinking; “Coffee and beer, ewww!” But really, this beer is insanely delicious.
It’s called Un, Kono Kuro which is a pun on the Japanese word for crap (unko). The name has two meanings phonetically: “Yeah, This Is Black” or “Sh!t Black.” In English it’d be like saying “Blackish, It Is” (say that really fast a few times).
■ This Is Really Sh#t Beer!

Tourism chiefs in Siberia persuaded snowboarders to brave the region’s notoriously bitter winter weather in hotpants and bikini tops.
It was for a promotional film designed to encourage skiers and snowboarders to the region’s Sheregesh resort.
Siberia is on a drive to draw more tourists away from Moscow to visit the country’s frozen east, where temperatures dip to minus 30 degrees Celsius in winter.
They also hope to entice adventurous winter sports enthusiasts away from more traditional resorts in the Alps.
“We are quite remote but we’re up and coming,” said a tourist board spokesman.
“We can’t guarantee a show like this every day but we’re pretty relaxed out here in Siberia.
“And we have the best snowboarding powder anywhere in Europe.”
Locals also plan to open a Yeti theme park this year to cash in on frequent sightings of the mythical beast in the area.
Sheregesh deputy mayor Igor Idimeshev, 48, said: “Now, if the girls can tempt out some ski-ing Yetis, then we really will be in business.”

When it comes to unusual spirits, it’s hard to top Clear Creek Douglas Fir Eau de Vie. Inspired by the rare Alsatian distillate Eau de Vie de Bourgeons de Sapin, this unique tree spirit is crafted by infusing hand-picked Douglas Fir buds into clear brandy, which gets re-distilled and re-infused before being strained and bottled. Said to smell and taste like the woods, you’ll find notes of juniper, wood, vanilla, and Christmas tree in each sip. In other words, it’s as close as you can get to drinking Pine-Sol without making a call to poison control — and we mean that in the best way possible.

In the past, female writers such as Charlotte Bronte had to adopt male pen names in order to get their books published. But the tables were turned for former war hero Bill Spence after he wrote a series of romance novels.
The grandfather from Ampleforth, North Yorkshire, was told his books would need to be printed under a feminine moniker if he wanted them to sell – and so his pseudonym Jessica Blair was born.
Bill, 89, has so far written 22 romance novels under the female pen name since his first was published in 1993, with his latest, Silence of the Snow, due out this week.
Meet Jessica Blair: The author of 22 romantic novels is actually Bill Spence
And far from feeling his masculinity had been questioned, Bill said he was delighted when a publisher suggested his books carry the name of a woman.

A species of sea slug grows a new PENIS after every sex session, scientists have discovered.
Chromodoris reticulata gets rid of the organ straight after mating – but has a new one in 24 hours.
And the critter, which inhabits warm waters in Southeast Asia, can repeat the feat at least three times.
Animals that discard body parts aren’t unusual in the natural world. Geckos are known to shed their tails.
But boffins say the bizarre sex life of the sea slug is unprecedented.
“No other animal is known to repeatedly copulate using such ‘disposable penes’,” Japanese biologists wrote in the Royal Society journal Biology Letters.
The scientists found that the human thumb-sized slug has both male and female sexual organs and can use both at the same time.
During sex they both take sperm from each other and then store it for later fertilisation.
After each sex session the slugs discard their penises – a thread-like organ that it projects from its side.
Scientists say the slug grows a new penis from coiled-up tissue at the base of its genitalia.
Ayami Sekizawa, who led the study, said: “We think this spiral is effectively a penis-in-waiting that will uncoil rapidly after penis disposal and grow into a new penis.”

When asked to pick your poison what do you choose? In a recent survey, people in Japan were asked to select their favorite alcoholic beverage. The results, as we’ll see after the break, were quite surprising.
(The following survey was conducted by Japanese website Shunkan News, and was taken by a total of 20,048 people. Respondents who answered, “I don’t drink alcohol” or those who were underage have been omitted from the results.)
Japan’s favorite drinks:
Beer: 34.9%
Wine: 12.6%
Nihonshu (Japanese Rice Wine): 10.5%
Shochu: 17.7%
Plum Liquor: 13.6%
Makgeolli (Korean Rice Wine): 0.9%
Whiskey/High Ball: 4.3%
Other Alcohol: 5.5%

No matter how much you love someone, once you start living with them minor irritations are bound to come to the surface. The object of your affections – that perfect specimen of a human being whose every movement used to be cute, sexy or endearing in some way – suddenly becomes just another person with flaws of their own. Perhaps they slurp their coffee too loudly. Maybe they have a habit of leaving hair in the plug-hole or not changing the toilet roll when the old one is finished. These minor issues are the kind of thing that we only come to notice after the initial “honeymoon” dating period when we were always dressed to impress and only have to keep our bad habits in check for the duration of a single evening at a time.
In a recent story about marital relations, Japanese website News Post Seven heard from both relationships experts and a number of married women who were distinctly irked by their husbands’ bad habits. While issues such as of a general lack of help with the housework or cooking frequently cropped up as the cause of arguments and unhappiness, one of the most common complaints made was of husbands making as mess while peeing. Told to take a seat while draining his spuds, however, one Japanese man was seemingly morally offended by the mere suggestion, stating that to pee standing up is “a matter of honour”.

Train passengers were held up for more than an hour after a railway signalman got stuck in an outside toilet.
He left his post to answer a call of nature but was left flushed with embarrassment when the lock jammed.
The driver of a Hereford to London train heard the man’s cries for help after he was forced to stop because he could not make radio contact.
Colleagues eventually managed to set the signalman free by forcing the door open with a crowbar, reports the Daily Telegraph.
The 3.13pm service was delayed during the rescue near Worcester Foregate Street station.
Rail bosses gave the reason as “signalling problems” but rail enthusiasts became privy to the truth through an internet forum.
One user joked: “Where are all the relief staff when you need ’em…?”
Network Rail apologised for the incident and blamed the rail system’s ageing buildings.
A spokesman added: “Much of the railway network is still controlled from Victorian signal boxes, which often have outside loos.”

The residents of a Japanese town have asked for a replica of Michelangelo’s David to be fitted with underpants.
The 16ft statue was erected in a park in Okuizumo where it towered over people visiting nearby sports facilities.
But it is also close to a children’s play area, which prompted residents to object to the Renaissance statue’s nudity.
“It’s frightening the children and worrying the adults with its nakedness,” said an official in the small mountainside town.
“Several people have asked us to cover it up with underpants.”
The statue, along with a replica of the ‘topless’ Venus de Milo, was presented to the town by a local businessman.
Local officials said they hoped that residents would in time come to appreciate the value of the sculptures, reports the Yomiuri Shimbun.
Town official Yoji Morinaga said: “They are statues of unclothed humans, and such pieces of art work are very rare in our area.
“It’s the first time we have had anything like this in our town. Perhaps people were perplexed.”
