Man accidentally eats pot brownies, cusses at his cat and becomes internet famous

An Omaha man has learned a valuable lesson this week: Don’t eat something you find in the back seat of your car.

According to the Omaha World-Herald, police were called to investigate some odd behavior of a 53-year-old man, who had been unloading groceries when he found some brownies his vehicle seemingly left behind by his adult children. He gobbled up four of the sweet treats, which unbeknownst to him were laced with marijuana.

Then things got weird. His family called for help. Paramedics arrived and found the man, doing among other odd things, calling the family cat a “bitch.”

The story has been picked up around the world.

And Thursday night, local newspaper finally landed an interview with “Pot Father.” Turns out the family cat, Kipper, is kind of nasty, which is what he says he was trying to tell officials when they arrived to help him; to watch out for the cat.

“She can be a b….,” pot dad tells the paper.

Kipper already has a parody Twitter account under @PotDadsCat. Because, of course. Oh, and so does @OmahaPotDad. Naturally. That’s what you get for taking a bad trip that somehow becomes news.
