Two Japanese Cats Keep Trying to Sneak In to this Museum – Every. Single. Day.

They say that art knows no bounds. It doesn’t matter where you’re from, or who you are. Art lovers can come from all walks of life, but the one thing most of take for granted is that all art lovers are humans. Well, get ready to shatter that illusion because these art enthusiasts are cats. The adorable one on the left is Ken Chan. The cute orange-y little girl is Gosaku, sometimes called Go-Chan

Their mission for years has been to visit the Hiroshima Onomichi City Museum of Art. However, since they are cats, they are unable to purchase tickets and are therefore prohibited from viewing the art. Also, being cats, they probably shouldn’t be near priceless and irreplaceable works, especially the textiles.

Still, this sort of narrow-minded thinking by management has not stopped Ken Chan and Go-Chan from trying to get a paw in the door for years.

Go-Chan is not as naughty, but every once in a while, she will try the door. Certainly, at Ken Chan’s urging.

The security guard, however, has a job to do and that is to keep two silly cats from pussyfooting around his museum.

Everyday is a stuggle for Ken Chan and Go-Chan.

Especially for Ken Chan, who loooooovvvvves the art. Please let me see the art.

Oh, Go-Chan. You too, again?

When will they ever learn?

Such willful little things to never give up on their dreams. Ken-chan and Go Chan, we hope you find a door left open accidentally soon. We’re cheering for you!

Illustrated Chart of Every Brewery in the U.S.A. is Every Beer Lover’s Dream

Over 5,000 breweries are marked—virtually every beer producer in the country. Pop Chart Lab used data from the Brewers Association, as well as extensive online research to create this unique graphic for beer lovers.

The map can be further enlarged on the Pop Chart Lab website. At a glance, you are able to tell the number of breweries per 100,000 people. The darkest sections show the locations where more than 6 breweries per 100,000 people exist. The lightest sections indicate less than 0.5 breweries per 100,000 people.

The website also allows visitors to enlarge the East Coast, West Coast and Midwest portions of the country to see more of the brewtiful details. Looks like beer drinking is almost an occupation for folks in New England and the Pacific Northwest…

This Hidden Shrine of Danny DeVito Inside a College Bathroom is Raising So Many Questions

Danny DeVito is a pretty famous guy. He’s played some memorable roles in films like Matilda and Get Shorty, as well as his extended run on TV’s It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia. But he’s not exactly the kind of actor you’d think would have a shrine dedicated to him, right?

Wrong. Apparently, students at New York’s SUNY Purchase College have done just that… or they created a cult following for their leader, Danny DeVito. Who knows.

Here’s what we know: recently, someone discovered a secret shrine in one of the college’s bathrooms, hidden behind a paper towel dispenser.

Not only is it wonderfully creepy and/or charming (depending on who you ask), it’s filled with treasures left behind for the It’s Always Sunny in Philiadelphia star. Plastic spoons, cigarettes, liquor bottles, and a graffiti picture of Squidward, to name a few, were laid at the feet of a cardboard cut out of DeVito.

Once the Administration caught wind, they tweeted:

But soon after it went viral and students began clawing to give thanks and service to the shrine, the school sealed it up.

Many students, as well as other twitter enthusiasts, took to reviving it in various ways to show the love and support every fallen shrine deserves.

Danny had a good laugh as well and sent an important message about garbage:

But questions still remain…Who did this? Why the obsession with DeVito? And how in the world did they find a removable paper towel dispenser? Alas, we may never know the truth, and I hope it doesn’t keep you up at night wondering as well…
