  2. Does that mean it catches fire and possibly explodes when the driver crashes?

    I had to read the wedding chapel bit several times to be sure it's about buying an actual chapel and not having a wedding there for 12 million USD. :D

    This week’s weirdest ways to spend money
    Pampered pets are getting all the attention. Last week, we wrote about all the money that’s pouring into pet-tech land. This week, we’re featuring some of the weirdest ways we’ve recently found to spend cash on our furry friends:

    • dog PACER Minipacer Treadmill, $531.43.Dogs need to get their steps in, too. Enter: the treadmill for dogs.
    • Hot Doll, $217. It’s not just cats that get frisky, so here’s, uh, a doggie sex toy. If your dog Sparky is a little too “friendly” with guests, this could be exactly what you’re looking for.
    • Neuticles, ~$310. These are fake dog testicles for furry little friends who are feeling emasculated after getting fixed. Wow. That escalated quickly. Anyway… yeah, let’s just stop there.

  9. If the underwear were to have the likeness of Trump's face on the inside at the back, I imagine it would be a bestseller.
