Thanks to Shortlist for discovering this video, about a dog that hates Julia Roberts (and an owner who hates shirts). It’s strange, the dog is a Husky (as is the owner, come to think of it), and thus has been bred to live on the frozen tundra, watching Eskimos reeking of seal fat drink reindeer blood to stay warm. And yet what is it that sends him into abject panic? A highly-Photoshopped picture of America’s sweetheart, Julia Roberts. Poor guy. To be fair to Julia Roberts, he probably just saw Eat Pray Love and was disgusted that someone could make such a triumphant hero’s journey out of an entitled woman’s attempt to cure her own emptiness through poverty tourism, but we both know that’s probably more Liz Gilbert’s fault. Or maybe he was just disgusted at the artificiality of it all. Dogs are kind of fickle, to be honest.
My cousin’s iguana craps the tub every time he hears Nia Vardalos. True story.
