There are few things that make your stomach drop faster than seeing a police car siren in your rearview mirror. Those flashing lights almost always mean you’re in for a reaming, a possible court date, a hefty fine and maybe even weekends lost to traffic school. It’s the worst feeling ever. Unless the cop pulling you over is actually pranking you by giving you a 100 bucks for obeying the law.
Seeing dogs get confused by a magic trick was so darn cute the first time that magician Jose Ahonen decided to pull the same disappearing treat trick again with more adorable dogs. You can laugh as they hilariously react to the sorcery of seeing something vanish right underneath their nose and cry aww as you see their trusting eyes in the video below.
The driverless car hovers in our midst as the vehicle of tomorrow. What are the implications, however, when the driver’s attention doesn’t have to be focused on the road?

Steve Wozniak just sent this fun stunt caught on video a few years ago: Watch him deliver a Mac to Emma, a girl who freaks out when she realizes her idol is at the door carrying her new computer.

Whoever said that food and fashion don’t mix obviously haven’t seen these dainty and appetizing hats by MaorZabar Hats. Granted, the concept is strange and a bit far out, but the execution is just gorgeous.
Of course, it’ll take a playful personality (and possibly a large head) to be able to pull some of these hats off. But if you’re looking for one-of-a-kind fashion pieces that make a statement (mostly about your love of food), then these hats will do exactly that for you.
Sushi, fried eggs, salad, and pies – there’s a hat for each and every one of them.
They’re available for $266 each. Not cheap, but you have to admit, they are pretty amazing. You can check them out on Etsy.
