Saturday Overnight Open Thread (7/22/23)

City slickers and Anthropomorphism. This story had me cheering for the bloody Dingoes.

Two tourists who snapped selfies with dingoes have been fined more than $1,500 each for taking the “extremely dangerous decision” to interact with the native wild dogs following a recent spate of ferocious attacks, Australian authorities said.

In a statement Friday, Queensland Department of Environment and Science compliance manager Mike Devery said the two women were lucky not to be attacked in the separate incidents on the popular tourist island of K’gari, formerly known as Fraser Island.

A NEW map has revealed the shocking locations of the United States' most dangerous beaches, with one hotspot suffering a record number of shark bites.

The map offered viewers a glance at where the most unprovoked attacks occurred throughout 2022, where Florida beaches took the top spot with the most reported anywhere in the world.

If there are any Morons in McKinney, Texas. Hope you are alive and well.

“One hundred in Terrell. Right now in Terrell and in Dallas, your heat index is 107,” he said, going down the list of cities.

But then he got to McKinney.

“Everyone in McKinney is dead. The heat index right now in McKinney is 107,105. It’s hot in McKinney!” he then said, playing along with the typo.

Traveling to Europe in 2024? Plan on spending more money.

Currently, Americans only need a valid passport to visit to countries in the European Union (EU), but that’s soon going to change. Beginning early next year, people from approximately 60 countries around the world—including the U.S. and Canada—will need a new type of travel authorization to enter the EU. Here’s what to know.

Will Americans need a visa to travel to Europe?
Starting in early 2024, Americans will need to apply for and receive travel authorization via the European Travel Information and Authorization System (ETIAS) in order to visit one of the 30 countries that are members of the EU.

While it will be a new part of the travel and immigration process, it’s technically not a visa. A fee will be involved, but the process will be online and faster than getting a visa.

They seem like a cute couple. And a pair of Genius Award Winners.

Meet Anastazia Cretcher and Alexander Dillman.

Cretcher, 19, and Dillman, 26, were arrested after lifeguards reported seeing them having sex “in front of families and other beach goers” Monday afternoon in Daytona Beach, cops say.

One lifeguard reported that Cretcher and Dillman had “intercourse for approximately 15 minutes” near his watch tower. The other lifeguard said that he “observed the male erect penis penetration the females’s vagina,” according to an arrest affidavit.

Cretcher and Dillman left the beach after being contacted by one of the lifeguards. The pair was busted after a sheriff’s deputy encountered them at the top of a nearby stairwell “in complete nudity.”

While Cretcher denied having sex on the sand, she reportedly said the pair “left the beach to find somewhere more private.”
