Local News Anchor Actually Thinks An iPhone App Can Read Dogs' Minds

The female anchor in this story is SO excited about the new iPhone app her co-anchor just reported on that can "read dog's minds." She thinks they should make them for humans too! Watch her co-anchor's face when he realizes she thinks it's real:

I can read her co-anchor's mind. He's thinking "I can't believe I used to think I was in love with her."

Oops your co-anchor's an idiot. But he doesn't seem too surprised about it.

It'd be great if he just gave her a little pat on the head.

Also, by wishing for a human-version of this app, is she saying she can't read facial expressions?

WHY CAN'T YOU READ HUMAN FACIAL CUES?

That's one of the "You may be a serial killer if . . ." signs, isn't it?

"Maybe iPhone can come up with one of that."

Forget the obvious grammatical error, she is breaking really important news here: iPhones have become SELF-AWARE! I just threw mine off the balcony. This plus swine flu hitting DC equals the biggest freak out day ever! Jesus bring me home.

You can hear in her tone that AS SHE'S SAYING THIS she realizes how ridiculous she sounds.

Her own shame is greater than any we could bestow upon her.

I took it like she's so bored with the inane fake-dumb chatter she's paid to spew that she's just coming off like she's being serious. But that's just me.

That guy's expression is great. I use that one all the time. Nothing says "You're being an idiot and it's hilarious" like a slight tilt of the head and a smirk.

So, instead of reporting on the recession or the spread of swine flu you report on a i-Phone app. Well played local news, well played.
