This would have fit in great with Letterman’s Stupid Pet Tricks bit

My friend’s family has a cockatiel named Lucky. Whenever Lucky gets upset, he sings an Apple ringtone. It usually happens when they tie their shoes to get ready to leave the house. It’s adorable, and also pitch perfect.

Bag of Randomness for Tuesday, December 19, 2017

  • Here’s a Sneak Peek of Donald Trump in Disney’s Hall of Presidents
    • Disney should have given him a red tie, but at least they made sure to let it hang low. The GIF and video in the link do mimic his real-life movements well
  • No Spoilers – One of the worst parts of watching a movie like The Last Jedi by yourself is not having anyone to talk to about interpretations, theories, if it was good or not, just all that fun stuff you like to talk about right after a movie and everything is fresh in your mind and you get to experience initial reactions. Some movies are easier to watch alone than others.
  • I grew up with an oven in which one would open it from a standing position. For the past twelve or so years, I’ve lived in a house in which the oven is located closer to the floor. I would have thought by now I would learn when I open the oven door, I need to wait a few seconds for the rush of heat to escape before peaking or reaching into it. That was never an issue with the standing oven.
  • I also grew up without a dishwasher. I actually prefer to wash dishes by hand, it’s a bit therapeutic at times. However, WifeGeeding doesn’t think handwashing “sanitizes” as well as the dishwasher.
  • This tax bill calculator has been making the rounds in social media. You input some simple data and it compares your results against the current tax system, the new tax reform bill, and the old House and Old Senate versions.
  • New Jersey’s governor-elect poses next to cardboard cutout of Chris Christie on beach
  • Is this Idaho race the weirdest election result of 2017?
    • Two city council candidates were originally tied after their November election
    • During a coin toss, the incumbent called heads, but it fell tails
    • He sought a recount, and city officials found one more ballot for him
  • When it comes to television and movies, it’s funny how we are willing to dispell reality here and there but not there and there. You know what I mean.
  • Star Wars SPOILER thought
    • I like how R2 communicates with Luke. Him pulling the ole “Help me, Obi-Wan Kenobi. You’re my only hope” out of his bag of tricks was great.
    • I thought Kylo’s helmet was stupid and I’m glad he smashed it up.
