Jason And Tony: A Guy Mows His Lawn With a Giant Tornado Behind Him

I guess when you finally decide to get your yard work done, you’re not going to let anything get in your way.

A guy named Theunis Wessels from Three Hills, Alberta, Canada was mowing his lawn on Friday as a tornado passed through the area. And his wife took a crazy picture of him mowing with the giant tornado looming behind him.

But he says it was fine . . . because he was keeping an eye on it

Jason And Tony: In the Wake of the RompHim, Lace Shorts For Men Now Exist

Maybe we should’ve seen this coming.

If you missed it somehow, over the past few weeks, people have been going crazy about rompers for men. They’re called “RompHims,” and the Kickstarter for them has raised nearly $360,000.

And now, we’ve got the first in what’s sure to be a long line of ridiculous new men’s fashion items trying to draft off the RompHim’s success.

A clothing company in L.A. called Hologram City just released new lace shorts for men. They come in pastel colors . . . they’re very see-through . . . and you can buy a matching lace button-down shirt to go with them.

If you’re interested in buying them, which you’re not, the shorts and shirt each sell for $49.

Jason and Tony: If You Could Only Eat One Food the Rest of Your Life, What Would It Be? Here Are the Top Ten Answers

I know a few people whose diet is already 95% pizza. So this isn’t that surprising. If you could only eat one food the rest of your life, what would it be? A new survey asked people, and pizza was the #1 answer.

Here are the top ten . . .

1. Pizza.

2. Steak.

3. Ice cream.

4. Spaghetti.

5. Bacon.

6. Fried chicken.

7. French fries.

8. Grilled cheese.

9. Chinese food. Which is kind of cheating, because it’s not really one food.

10. Macaroni and cheese.

Cheeseburgers just missed the top ten at #11 . . . nachos at 12 . . . pancakes at 16 . . . donuts at 19 . . . chocolate at 26 . . . and APPLES made the list at #33. That’s pretty much the only “healthy” thing in the top 50.

Jason And Tony: The Most Commonly Misspelled Words in Every State Are Both Hilarious and Frightening

Spelling is kind of a lost art . . . people either have everything automatically spell-checked, or just don’t care if they’re right or wrong. But still . . . wow.

Google just put together a map with the word that every state has the most trouble spelling . . . based on the number of searches for “how to spell” that word and all of its possible misspellings. Tennessee’s word is Chaos… Here are some of the highlights . . .

1. A few states have nothing to be ashamed of. Like, the most misspelled word in Connecticut and West Virginia is “supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.” I’m not sure it’s possible to spell that word right.

2. Other states that Googled a legitimately tricky word include Michigan, Washington, Alabama, and Maine . . . all of which had trouble spelling “pneumonia.” And New Hampshire, where people have trouble spelling “diarrhea.”

3. But now, the BAD ones. People in New Mexico somehow had the most trouble spelling “banana” . . . people in Ohio, New York, Minnesota, and California had trouble spelling “beautiful” . . . and people in New Jersey can’t spell “twelve.”

4. But the most embarrassing is a tie between South Dakota, where the most commonly misspelled word is “college” . . . and Wisconsin, where the most commonly misspelled word is “Wisconsin.”

Jason And Tony: Would You Buy $425 Jeans That Come Streaked With Fake Mud?

It appears that jeans are evolving . . . that’s jeans spelled J-E-A-N-S, not, like, our biological genes.

jeans-MXSTwo new types of jeans have just gone on sale and, well, judge for yourself . . .

The first ones just went on sale at Nordstrom.  They’re called the “Barracuda Straight Leg Jeans” and they come pre-streaked with lots of fake mud.

That way you can look like you’ve been, quote, “getting down and dirty” without, you know, doing anything.  And how much do they cost?  $425.  Wow.

The other new jeans come from a British chain called Topshop.  And even though they call them jeans, that’s a stretch . . . because they’re not made from denim and they’re completely see-thru.

The description says, quote, “These out-of-the-ordinary clear plastic jeans [are] guaranteed to get people talking.”  At least they “only” cost $100.  (As of late last night, they were no longer listed on Topshop’s website.)

Jason And Tony: A Guy Who Lost His Wallet 14 Years Ago Learns the People Who Found It Have Had an Annual Drinking Event in His Honor

A guy in London named Tim Burrows was at a music festival called the Reading Festival back in 2003 when he lost his wallet. It never turned up and, obviously, he’d moved on.

But earlier this week, Tim got a Facebook message from a random guy named Giles who wrote, quote, “Did you lose a wallet at Reading once?” Tim said he had.

festAnd Giles told him he and his friend found it, they stole the $13 out of it, and they used it to buy hard cider. Then they felt guilty about it, so they decided to hold a cider drinking contest in Tim’s honor called the Timothy Burrows Drinking Challenge.

And they’ve been holding that event every single year since. Apparently the rules are simple: Teams of five people have a gallon of hard cider and they have to chug it as quickly as possible.

Now that Giles is in touch with Tim, he offered to repay him the $13 they took. And there’s no word if Tim is going to attend the 14th annual event that’s named after him . . . but he never even knew about.
