Cat and Roommate Feud Over Emoji Decor

· Leave a Comment

A cheeky accent piece here or there is one thing. But Pudge’s roommate Jeff has taken Emoji mania too far in his latest refresh of their shared apartment.

“Jeff always works on a theme,” says Rebecca Solomon, a mutual friend. “Last year it was dinosaurs, the year before that it was Depression-era painters. The Emoji thing is a little odd.”

And Pudge is not happy about it. Emoji pillows, Emoji pattern curtains, Emoji rugs, Emoji drink coasters. “He’s fed up,” says Arthur Calloway, a source close to the situation. “He’s threatened to withhold rent or move out if Jeff doesn’t class it up before the end of the year. How is he supposed to host a holiday mixer when it looks like a sext vomited all over the couch?”

This story is developing.

Experts: Area Cat Enjoying Armchair Incorrectly

· Leave a Comment

According to furniture experts, local cat Zippy has not been using her new chair correctly. 

The cat reportedly acquired the new chair during a Black Friday sale on Wayfair.com last month. Though’s she’s enjoying her purchase, furniture researchers from the University of Vermont who have examined photos of Zippy using the chair, as well as eyewitness accounts, say she’s not enjoying it properly.

“In general, there’s a ‘right’ way to sit on a chair,” explained Alden Crocker, chair of living room set research at the school’s Ethan Allen School of Furniture Studies. “A good rule of thumb is that the back of the chair is not usually for sitting.”

Despite Zippy’s unorthodox style, friends say that as long as she is happy with her purchase, that’s all that matter.

Cat’s New Bed & Breakfast Is the Purrfect Weekend Getaway

Acclaimed restaurateur and Food Network host Mr. Min has unveiled his latest upscale establishment, but it’s not the steakhouse or sushi bar he’s so often associated with.

The Caboodle Inn is a cozy home away from home in Poughkeepsie, NY, where the hand-roasted coffee and on-premises free-range eggs are rivaled only by the thread count of the master bedroom’s sheets.

“We pride ourselves on creating a luxury experience that feels homespun and casual,” says Francis Eckland, the friendly property manager whom we met multiple times during our stay. “We want you to leave your cares at the door, but we’re not in the hotel business, which can sometimes feel sterile. Mr. Min is very particular about ambiance, and food, of course.”

The charm here is overflowing. From the rustic fireplaces to the steel-cut oats, we recommend The Caboodle Inn highly – if you can stomach the price.
