Near Zurich, Switzerland, a study by researchers at the Hirslanden Clinic suggests men’s beards have more germs than dogs’ fur. They compared the bacterial load in colony-forming units (CFU) of human-pathogenic microorganisms in specimens taken from 18 bearded men and 30 furry dogs. The researchers also compared the extent of bacterial contamination of an MRI scanner used by both dogs and humans with two other MRI scanners used exclusively by humans. Turns out all the bearded mean showed high microbial counts, compared with only 23 out of 30 dogs. Seven of the men had so much beard bacteria they were at risk of getting sick, according to the BBC. The jointly used scanner also had significantly lower bacteria counts than the scanners used only by humans. “On the basis of these findings, dogs can be considered as clean, compared with bearded men,” study author Andreas Gutzeit told the BBC.

 

In Wyoming, Michigan, a 5-year-old boy wanted food from McDonald’s, but his grandmother was sleeping. So, he called 911 and asked the dispatcher, “Can you bring me McDonald’s?” the Associated Press reports. The dispatcher told him no and reached out to police. The police officer says on the way to check out the boy’s home he thought, “I’m driving past McDonald’s on my way there and I might as well get him something.” The officer says the first thing the boy said to him was, “My grandma’s gonna be so mad, can you please go away?”
