Hamster Demands Butter and Salt for Corn
An Indonesian hamster named Wiko has staged a non-violent protest that’s quickly garnered worldwide support. The #OccupyCorn movement expresses outrage that Wiko be served plain old corn, without any of the fixins that make it so delicious — chief among them, butter and salt.
“Maybe the fat cats on Wall Street can afford butter and salt, but where does that leave Wiko?” asked a protester at a rally in Jakarta.
Sources close to the situation say that Wiko refuses to eat the corn until his demands are met.

“I always make this case because I feel like my mom was part of a generation of people who [had] incredible gifts. There was no sweetening of vocals. There was no Pro Tools then. So I feel like people like her really shone because they were just so incredibly gifted and one of a kind. She was very revered for that reason and very well-respected. My mom was a special, cool lady.” — Maya Rudolph
