Yahoo3 days ago
A recent video featuring a cheeky Golden Retriever is making rounds on Instagram, resonating with dog owners everywhere. Instagram user @laurencodyandcharlie shared the video on the social media platform, highlighting the dog's expertise over 'selective hearing.' Charlie, the Golden Retriever in question, proves how some pets can be playfully stubborn and respond only if the owner promises them a treat.
Golden Retriever is a 'selective hearing' expert in funny video
In a hilarious video, Golden Retriever Charlie rests comfortably on a grey sofa, quite uninterested as his owner repeatedly calls his name. The paw parent even changes the intonations in an effort to get his attention. However, Charlie won't budge. The on-screen caption sets the stage for the video, reading, 'selective hearing at its finest.' Accordingly, the Golden boy remains nonchalant with his eyes closed, showing no sign of acknowledgment.
All of that changes in an instant when his owner asks, 'You want a cookie?' Suddenly, everything changes as Charlie perks up, flashing his eyes wide and fully alert as he wags his tail while looking directly at the camera. The caption beneath the video sums up the Golden Retriever's antics: 'The selective hearing tho.'
The video resonated with viewers and quickly gained attention on Instagram. Viewers shared their amusement with Charlie, with several viewers eager to know the resolution. One directly asked, 'sooo did he get the cookie or not?!' Another user echoed the sentiment, writing, 'Did you gave him the cookie tho?' A third user quipped as he added, 'If Charlie didn't get a cookie, I'll be livid!' Some commentators under the hilarious video found Charlie 'cute,' while others shared their own experiences with their Golden Retrievers and their antics.
The comments prove that the video features a lighthearted moment many pet owners can relate to. Charlie's immediate reaction to being offered a cookie, after initially completely ignoring the owner, is a testament to the playful and enduring bond between pets and their owners. While viewers are left wondering whether he received his cookie, the video serves as a reminder of the everyday moments that make life with dogs unforgettable.

A classic Sunny takes on Cybertrucks and slap fights

[Editor's note: The A.V. Club will return to recap this season's finale on August 20.] It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia has gifted fans dozens of the dumbest schemes in the history of television. In fact, if you had to say what this show was about more than anything else, it would probably be five idiots doing damage control after their very bad ideas explode in their faces. Whether they're making Kitten Mittens, collecting Philly's trash, or solving the gas crisis, the Paddy's Pub Gang has a unique ability to take get-rich-quick schemes and set them on fire. And in 'Thought Leadership: A Corporate Conversation,' writers Charlie Day and Rob Mac use viral subjects like slap fighting and Tesla's Cybertruck to concoct a very funny episode that feels both classic Sunny and current. An alternate title for this week's episode could have been 'The Gang Has Watched Too Much Succession.' The HBO hit isn't directly name-checked, but that booming score sure sounds a lot like Nicholas Brittell's compositions on the multiple Emmy winner. They've actually been watching a bunch of clips of a corporate retreat in Idaho, leading to some fantastic misinterpretations of 'business speak,' including Mac saying nonsense like 'hammer down our brand identity and come out open commando' and Charlie thinking the sacrificial lamb was actual meat and also suggesting they use other animals than a 'scapegoat' like maybe a 'fall fish' or a 'scapefish' or a 'fall bird'—and then we're back to Dee. (Charlie Day is spectacular in this episode.) The YouTube rabbit hole of Idaho corporate training also allows people like Dennis and Mac to say phrases that mean just about nothing, like, 'First and foremost, the business must be protected at all times.' The current concern is a reporter in Paddy's Pub who Frank believes is there because they dumped 500 gallons of baby oil and 200 Paddy's Pub T-shirts into the Schuylkill River. How did that happen? Flashback time! 'Paddysgate' started several weeks ago when Frank found a jug out back, arguably the dumbest inciting event for one of his schemes to date. After arguing over how to musically use the jug, and a bit of clawing each other's faces, the Gang got their own individual jugs, but they were full of water. How do you get rid of water? Charlie insists it can't be used to clean the bar and it's probably not smart to start a fire, so they begin the slow process of drinking it and talk about the art of braising, evidence disposal, baby oil, and even the Cybertruck. And then there's the big question of 2025: 'What are your thoughts on slap fighting?' After a few days of slapping within the group, Mac has a business idea: 'professional slap fighting.' They stage these bouts in the bar, which attracts a crowd. But the gang has never come up with a good idea they couldn't destroy, often through their horniness. So Dennis gives an amazing speech about how slap fighting isn't erotic enough and turns it into a pitch about an unfulfilled future: 'We were promised women going wild.' Before you know it, Paddy's has moved from burly dudes to bikinis and baby oil, although most of the women don't go for the latter. And to entice a higher quality of contestant, they decide to give away a prize: a Cybertruck. But they become obsessed with Elon's dumb car and decide they want to keep it for themselves, forcing Dee to become a ringer in the competition. It might have worked if Charlie hadn't fallen back on some bad habits. He goes to find the Waitress (Day's wife, Mary Elizabeth Ellis), offering to 'oil' her so she can win the car. And there's a truly funny exchange in which she asks if he's stalking her again. 'No, that's not my thing,' he says. 'Flirting maybe.' It's a clever nod to a conversation around the show regarding Charlie's aggressive behavior, especially in early seasons, that also underlines his complete lack of self-awareness. As the Waitress is living in her car, she jumps at the chance to upgrade her domicile, slapping the shit out of Dee before discovering they're not actually giving away a Tesla. When she threatens to go to the police, Frank and company dispose of the evidence, but Charlie reveals that Frank's urgency is because he had crossed the 'girls gone wild' line and was staging an orgy in the basement. After the blame game is complete, the Gang comes up with a 'no comment'—only to discover that the sole customer in Paddy's Pub isn't a reporter. She's the sex worker for Frank's orgy. Stray observations • Never using Elon's actual name is wonderful—you know he would have loved being referred to as something other than 'The Space Nerd'—as is Dee's revelation that she thinks the Cybertruck is ugly. She is not wrong. • Playing 'In the Hall Of The Mountain King' while Dee slaps the sanity out of people is a season highlight. • Charlie has so many good lines this week, including 'They're too dry! And so they don't feel wild!' and 'How do you get the oil out of the baby?' • Mary Elizabeth Ellis has been in at least one episode of every season of It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia, and we still don't know her character's name. The Gang does! They revealed recently on their podcast that not only did she originally have a name they still know but explain why they will probably never reveal it. It's a good watch.

Princess Charlotte and Prince William had father-daughter outing at soccer game in Switzerland

The royal duo attended the final of the UEFA Women's EURO 2025 on Sunday. 1:20 Princess Charlotte enjoyed some quality father-daughter time with Prince William at a soccer game in Switzerland. On Sunday, the pair attended the UEFA Women's EURO 2025 final, where England's Lionesses triumphed over Spain in a thrilling penalty shootout. Prince William, in his role as patron of the Football Association, showed his support for the England women's soccer team by attending the high-stakes match at St. Jakob-Park in Basel. The official Instagram account for the Prince and Princess of Wales shared a sweet photo of Charlotte and William smiling together, with the caption, "Let's go, @lionesses! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿." Following the win, King Charles III celebrated the team's victory with a congratulatory message. He praised the Lionesses, their manager, and support staff for their triumph at the EUROS 2025. Reflecting on the iconic chant, "football's coming home," he expressed pride that the Lionesses had made those words a reality. "As you return home with the trophy you won at Wembley three years ago, it is a source of great pride that, through sporting skill and awesome teamwork, the Lionesses have made those words ring true. For this, you have my whole family's warmest appreciation and admiration," he wrote in a statement posted on X. "More than that, though, you have shown through your example over past weeks that there are no setbacks so tough that defeat cannot be transformed into victory, even as the final whistle looms." "Well done, Lionesses. The next task is to bring home the World Cup in 2027 if you possibly can!" the statement concluded. Charlotte's appearance at the soccer game follows a recent surprise outing with Prince George at Wimbledon, where they joined their parents, William and Princess Kate, to watch the final match. A photo shared by Wimbledon's official X account captured the royal family smiling together, with Kate and Charlotte in light summer dresses and William and George in matching suits and ties. July has been a busy month for the family, as they also celebrated George's 12th birthday.
