Woman claims Airbnb guest refused to leave her home
Woman claims Airbnb guest refused to leave her home
A woman was left raging after claiming a temporary tenant refused to leave her California home. In a furious explicit-filled rant reposted to the @2RawTooReal Twitter account, the woman alleged that her temporary house guest wouldn't leave – despite getting the police involved. In some states, renters can establish themselves as tenants if they booked a stay for 30 days or longer, according to GU. She explained that she posted an advertisement on the popular rental website to help with the mortgage while she was on holiday. The guest was supposed to be gone three days before she arrived home. In a follow-up video, she filmed the unidentified (and unwelcome) lodger who brutally hit back: "I ain't going nowhere. Deal with it." After the homeowner accused the stranger of being a "freeloader", she replied furiously: "Call the police because I ain't going nowhere. Don't touch that [bedroom] door, or I'm calling the police on you. They're gonna arrest you." The would-be tenant proceeded to make herself comfortable and even went as far as lighting a cigarette in the homeowner's dining area. "Are you smoking in my house?" the enraged woman said, before abruptly ending the video.

One person came up with their own innovative solution, writing: "This is the part where I cut off all the power, the cable, internet, etc. We are gonna live like it’s 1800. I would summon the worst vindictive version of myself to make it as uncomfortable AF for them to get them out of my house." Another joked: "Lmfaooo why is she so comfortable!?! Walking around with no shoes on, moving slowly etc." Meanwhile, a third person added: "This is one of the most insane things I've ever seen." Indy100 reached out to Airbnb for comment.

Woman ends up in hospital after mistaking superglue for eyedrops
Woman ends up in hospital after mistaking superglue for eyedrops
A woman has been hospitalised thanks to an unfortunate mix-up. In a viral clip posted to TikTok, 22-year-old Lyd (@icyylyd) urged her 112,000 followers to always "read the bottles" after she applied what she thought were eyedrops, only to discover she had doused herself in super glue. Lyd shared a montage of the horrifying incident, starting with a gruesome image of her eye glued shut. "They had me apply an ointment that breaks down and dissolves the glue," she wrote over a brief recording of her rubbing the cream on the affected eye. Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter She then showed herself being treated by medics on a hospital bed, explaining that the cream didn't work. This meant a doctor was forced to pick at the glue in an attempt to remove it. After several attempts, Lyd was taken into a private room where her eye was finally opened with a metal tool. She concluded by showing viewers her bloodshot eye after successfully being opened. "I'm in so much pain," she wrote while holding a compress against it. @icyylyd Not fun :))) read bottles before using! #fyp #superglueineye #foryoupage #foryou Inevitably, the TikTok soon spread across the platform, with a staggering 5.4 million views and thousands of comments from concerned users. "Oh my god girl … I hope you get better and I’m praying there’s no damage to your eye," one person wrote, to which Lyd responded: "Thankyou. In a lot of pain and vision is still not the best. They gave me antibiotic eye drops." Another added: "Superglue evil for designing their bottles the same as eyedrop bottles." Meanwhile, one medic claimed the mortifying incident is more common than people may think. They wrote: "Former ophthalmic tech here! This happens WAY more often than you’d think. Sometimes the only way is to trim the lashes down." Have your say in our news democracy. Click the upvote icon at the top of the page to help raise this article through the indy100 rankings.

TikToker freezes their dead cat so they could be 'together forever'
TikToker freezes their dead cat so they could be 'together forever'
A TikToker has gone viral for freeze-drying their dead cat so they could be "together forever". Soren High, 35, from Oregon was heartbroken when their 16-year-old feline Loki passed away from a traumatising accident. Soren, who goes by they/them pronouns, told Insider they instantly knew they wanted to have the cat preserved "the day I took her home." Soren shared each step of the $3,000 (£2,400) process, from packing up Loki with ice and flowers for shipping to learning how to maintenance of the cat. Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter One clip, which racked up millions of views showed Soren unboxing Loki. "My cat arrived in the mail today if you're ready to meet her," they said. @teapourn Remembering Lokicat the only way she deserved ❤️ having a pet preserved is a personal decision and one that many may never understand. When i got Lokicat as a kitten, I knew this was how i was going to deal with ber death. I knew i never wanted her to be gone, and that I wanted to always have her with me. Her death was sudden, even though she was 16. We never expected this would happen and especially by a dog we had been fostering. This situation broke us into a billion pieces. After finding a home for the dog, we had Loki preserved through @Animal Family Pet with help through donations and raising funds with memorial fabrics and pieces. Her preservation cost nearly $3k and it was worth every Penny. . . #petmemorial #petpreservation #taxidermy #petsoftiktok #freezedriedpets #fypシ #foryou #grief #loss #memorial Soren also shared how they had Loki's heart frozen. "She is actually fully intact, meaning she was never skinned, and all her bones are actually still inside," Soren explained in one of her clips. "Remembering Lokicat the only way she deserved. Having a pet preserved is a personal decision and one that many may never understand." Many of their 45,000 TikTokers believed the process to be taxidermy, before Soren corrected them. "Taxidermy is completely different and freeze drying has less impact on the body tissues, making the preservation much more ideal," they said. "There's very little chance that she wouldn’t look like herself through freeze-dry. Taxidermy can lead to some unsatisfactory outcomes if not taken absolutely seriously." @teapourn Replying to @☀️ taxidermy is completely different and freeze drying has less impact on the body tissues, msking the preservation much more ideal. Theres very little chance that she wouldn’t look like herself through freeze dry. Taxidermy can lead to some unsatisfactory outcomes if not taken absolutely seriously. #freezedriedpets #petmemorial #petpreservation #foryou #fypシ TikTokers, who have followed the intriguing process, flooded Soren's videos with heartfelt messages. "What a beautiful thing to do. Rest in peace Lokicat," one person wrote, while another added: "It feels like such a morbid topic and thing to do, but seeing Loki cat in your arms… I just can’t imagine how that must feel. Sending love." Meanwhile, a third user emotionally wrote: "Oh, I cried with you. She looks perfect." Have your say in our news democracy.

What does 'yellow car' mean on TikTok?
What does 'yellow car' mean on TikTok?
It seems the rest of the world has been left rather baffled by the classic British “yellow car” game after it has gone viral on TikTok. If you didn’t grow up in the UK, chances are you think nothing of it when you see a yellow car drive by you. But, for Brits who did, seeing a yellow car meant you were oftentimes giving or receiving a beating from someone else. What is the significance of yellow cars? In the game, which is typically played on long car journeys between young people, if you are the first to spot a yellow car, you have to shout “yellow car” and are then allowed to hit someone else near you. The punch to the arm is not intended to hurt the other person but is a fun game to pass the time and keep you on your toes. The rules of the game are that only yellow cars are allowed, so any vans or buses spotted don’t count. If you receive the hit, you are also not allowed to hit back thanks to the “no returns” rule. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter @your_sammy.wammy Its just rules my guy 🤷♀️#funny#fypシ #yellowcar#relatable In order to hit your partner back, you must be the first person to spot a yellow car and call it out. The origins of the game are unknown, but many people in their 20s and 30s and beyond will certainly remember the game from their childhood. @kehnim Tag them 😂 #yellowcar #yellow #car #uk #schoo #ukschool #uktiktok #godofwar #gaming #godofwarragnarok #friends #friendship The game has been going viral on TikTok, with people hilariously remembering the semi-violent childhood game. @_.dunnx._ It really is like this tho icl #yellow #car #yellowcar #punch #aggresive #be #aggresive In the comments, someone asked what “yellow car” means. The creator replied: “You punch someone when you see a yellow car and they can't punch you back (guessing you’re not from the UK?).” Others simply commented the classic line: “Yellow car, no returns.” Have your say in our news democracy.

Viral moose running on water video explained
Viral moose running on water video explained
A moose has been dubbed as "Jesus" and "Moses" (or "Mooses") after a resurfaced viral clip shows the animal running on water. In the video posted by Kristy Paniptchuk (@kristy_234) back in 2020, the video shows the scenery in Alaska as she cruised in a small boat up a river. She spotted the sizeable animal as it bolted across the river and managed to capture the moment as it make its way through the shallow waters at some speed. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The cow moose can then be seen crossing paths with the boats, determined to get to the other side of the water. Paniptchuk said at the time that the video is not fake and that the moose was moving across the shallow river that is just five meters deep in order to travel up stream, as per Metro.co.uk. @kristy_234 Cow moose #fyp #alaska To explain: The moose appears to seamlessly sprint through the water due to its shallow depths - it's so shallow in fact that the boat is believed to be a jet boat since a boat with propellers could cause damage if it hits the bottom. Since sharing the clip, the video has gone viral, as it received over 706,000 views, and plenty of comments from people who were fascinated by the video. One person joked: "Moses but a moose. Mooses" "Our lord and savior Jesus Moose," another person quipped. Someone else added: "Today I learned that I couldn't outrun a moose even if I wanted to." "I am so confused how is this possible," a fourth person commented. Have your say in our news democracy.

Ship captain brilliantly shuts down 'sexist' who questioned how a woman could do her job
What’s the best way to deal with ignorance? Get angry? Ignore it? Try and educate someone? Well, here’s a lesson in elegantly dispatching trolls, courtesy of Captain Kate McCue. McCue is a cruise ship captain with big social media followings on Instagram and TikTok. She’s the first American woman to captain a giant cruise vessel. But that hasn’t stopped people from sending her ignorant comments. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Like the anonymous troll who recently replied to McCue’s content by asking: "How can you be a captain? Your [sic] only a woman." McCue decided, for once, to dignify them with a response – with a twist. In a video posted to her TikTok she said: @captainkatemccue Reply to @seamus272 #yourewelcome #fyp #foryou #captain "Normally as I’m scrolling through comments and I see something like this, I totally ignore and move on with my life. But I think it’s about high time I address this because it’s 2020. And in this day and age, I am shocked that someone still doesn’t know the difference between ‘your’ and ‘you’re’. "A quick reference: ‘you’re’ as in ‘you are’, like ‘you are sexist’. ‘Your’ is something possessive, because it belongs to you, like ‘your ignorance’. But don’t worry, I’m here for you. If you need any more clarification, you can find me here. In my captain’s chair." The clip ends with a shot of McCue reclining in her captain’s seat. And the smart takedown is being praised by many. “Brilliant,” one viewer said, adding that they “did not expect” the way McCue cleverly chose to dissect the ignorance on display.

Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Theaz spoke about this in a TikTok that discussed why she herself had children if she sued her parents for having her without her permission.

She added: "if you are pregnant right now you need to go you need to hire a psychic medium and ask if they actually wanna be here." @isatandstared Replying to @JCNCLP Viewers who didn’t realise Theaz’s account was satire were confused, with one user commenting: ‘is this real?’ Others left comments such as: ‘you need help,’ ‘please tell me you’re joking,’ ‘now they’re teaching children to sue their parents for money so they don’t have to grow up and work?’ However, many were quick to catch on that Theaz was joking, and once they did, they appreciated the laugh. ‘Best laugh I’ve had all day,’ said one user.

The bizarre 'continental breakfast chair' video explained
The bizarre 'continental breakfast chair' video explained
There's a chair on TikTok that has gone viral, and left viewers pretty confused... In the videos, the uniquely-shaped chair can be seen as women in suits climb onto the structure and sit in a strange position that doesn't look the comfiest. The chair was created by artist Anna Uddenberg as part of art installation by Meredith Rosen Gallery in New York where it was on display from March to April 2023. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The Swedish, Berlin-based artist who often explores "the merging of the body and self with technology" was for this piece inspired by "anesthetic armature of our increasingly automated environment and distorts it into sexualized pseudo-functional sculptures," according to a press release. “Similar to a BDSM contractual agreement, the body is wilfully supported, entrapped, pampered and ultimately rendered useless, all while on view for public consumption." @breakfastbyanna "Continental Breakfast" installation by Anna Uddenberg (2023) #fypシ #fyp #art #viral When it comes to the name of the installation - "Continental Breakfast" - it "speaks specifically to the body as an asset to modify, control in order to relinquish autonomy to user-friendly technologies," The strange seat takes aesthetic influence from airline seats, hospital architecture and hotel design, since "the sculptures express a hyper-functionality inaccessible to human use." This kind of sculptural and performative practice is what Uddenberg is known for. One clip from TikTok has over 48.9m views which shows several images of the chair as well as women in suits maneuvering themselves into the seat too. One person wrote: "Is it just me or dose anyone knows what it's used for." "To this point I have never understood this video," another person said. Someone else added: "Please what’s really going on here." Well, we're glad a breakdown of Uddenberg's vision has cleared this confusion up. Have your say in our news democracy.
