Pet intelligence wank
The Guardian: Cats outsmarted in psychologist's test.

You can imagine how well this goes with the readers. Besides the predictable flood of pet owner butthurt and anecdotes of clever / stupid cats / dogs / mice / owls, there are plenty of genuinely funny comments as well as a side wank on the validity of test methods and statistics, obligatory calls to talk about world hunger instead or discuss the intelligence of various nationalities, and, naturally, Hitler and his pets make a bonus appearance. I think one could play classical wank bingo in here, but some of the stories make it all worthwhile.

My dogs were similar! We got Mr. Bojangles, whose mother was a Golden Retriever, and still had Farley, who was, yes, a Golden. Bo was convinced Farley was his mother, much to Farley's irritation.

Farley got back at him by being tricksy when rawhide chews came into play, though. He'd pretend he needed to go out, and then when Bo, who loves the outdoors, would run to join him, he'd suddenly decide he didn't need to go out after all and get the remains of Bo's chewie. Bo could never figure it out, though he was pretty smart in other ways.
