This Week in Weird: This Piece of Bacon Will Make You Look Twice

This Week in Weird: This Piece of Bacon Will Make You Look Twice

Aug 14, 2020   •   Ina Louise Manto

Time seems to be passing by as fast as a bullet train these days but we aren’t complaining. It’s finally our favorite day of the week! To jumpstart your weekend, we’ve rounded up some of the weirdest things we saw this week that would make you either smile or thank your lucky stars that it’s finally the weekend:

 

RIP Ostrich

Last week, animals went loose around the country: ostriches in QC, a pig in Cebu, and a cow walking along the highway in Iloilo City. How are they escaping easily? But one of the legendary ostriches of Quezon City met a tragic death from stress (allegedly) and was later on cooked into adobo.

 

Wait, what?

Seriously, how fast is 2020 going? One of our favorite meme kids, Mak, recently turned 15 and the internet is appalled by this shocking information. We all thought she was just 11 or something…? Just in case you’re not familiar with her, Mak grew popularity from her ASMR videos and sass. Thank you for the memes, Mak!

 

Harry Styles, this u?

There are plenty of ways people smuggle drugs: from cocaine being hidden in coffee beans to ingesting actual tablets. But these smugglers in Colombia found a creative way of doing it, which would make Harry Styles and his fans laugh. The former 1D member’s song “Watermelon Sugar” just fits perfectly in this narrative.

 

Is this the future of concerts?

Seeing your favorite artists live is still better than listening to their songs on end on Spotify. Concerts and tours were one of the first of the many events that immediately got canceled when the pandemic hit. But we might be able to experience them again sooner.

UK just had their first socially distanced concert in Gosforth Park, Newcastle where up to five people are allowed in each metal platform. Tbh, maybe seated festivals are really more fun. No more sticky feeling and sweat from trying to squeeze into the crowd!

 

Fried bacon

You probably thought that this is someone’s teeth and gums at first glance – but where’s the blood? It’s actually bacon! Now that’s a weird-looking piece of meat that looks like dentures.

 

LF: Male models

Is this how brands work? We appreciate the honesty, but they could’ve worded the rejection better. Also, their response to “not that great actually” just sends!

 

Meat or tree?

First glance: why would you put a piece of tortilla against a tree? That huge piece of meat looks like a tree or that huge stone Ki-Woo always carried in Parasite. Choose your fighter!

 

When kids watch too much TikToks

When you’re living in a Catholic household, one of the first things your parents probably taught you is how to do the sign of the cross properly. But with the age where TikTok is taking over kids’ entertainment, they can easily get confused with the dance steps. I mean, the popular TikTok dance does look like the sign of the cross. LOL!
