I'm not even mad, that's amazing

The World Pie-Eating Championships in England were threatened with postponement after a dog assigned to guard the pies, which were being stored in the refrigerator of a former champion, instead ate the pies when the fridge door did not close fully.

This actually happened. Although I'm a little surprised the dog didn't go for the whole wheel of cheese instead.

"Fortunately," the contest still went off without a hitch. Although if you think we have issues with PC watchdogs in America, get a load of this:

Past competitions used to be judged on the number of pies eaten by competitors in a three minute period but after falling victim to the "healthy eating lobby", the format was changed last year.

Seriously?

In "updates we will have in the future" news, Root Beer Taste Test #3 is tentatively scheduled for Saturday evening.
