STUDY: Dogs Also Look Silly Wearing Google Glass

A new study from the University of Waterloo in Canada has concluded that dogs looks even more ridiculous than people when wearing Google Glass.

“Wearable computer is clearly the future,” said lead researching Avery Bayard, citing the aforementioned Glass, as well as Samsung’s Galaxy Gear smartwatch. “But the manufacturers have work to do to make them attractive.”

According to their research, a majority of people thought that Google Glass just looked strange on those wearing it.  That number was even more pronounced for dogs.

“There are definitely advantages to these devices,” said Bayard, “but fashion isn’t one of them.”

Area Dog Unsure How to Proceed With Pineapple

A standoff between Nougat the dog and a pineapple has now dragged into a fifth hour, according to eyewitness reports. What began early this morning when Nougat decided to have some fresh fruit for breakfast, quickly developed into a full-fledged situation.

“Well, I think mostly the pineapple has confounded her,” said Allie Bruncle, a bystander. “I was there at the start, and she tried to bite it a few times, but learned quickly why that was a bad idea. Now she’s not sure what to do.”

There was nearly a break in the standoff earlier this morning.

“It seemed like she was going to give up around hour three,” said Tommy Anders, a firefighter who was called to the scene and put on standby. But Nougat rallied her strength and continued to stare down the spiky fruit.

“We’re not sure how this will end, but at this point, we’re preparing for the worst,” said Anders.
