In personal brand news: Seahawks running back Marshawn Lynch is trademarking his famous “I’m just here so I won’t get fined” phrase he repeatedly uttered to members of the media during this year’s Super Bowl.

The Burien law that had originally given police the ability to remove people with offensive body odor in public spaces was later revised to allow them to remove people who are behaving disruptively in a public space.

There are a lot of service animals walking around out there, accompanying their owners in businesses and on airplanes, and according to Komo News, some of those claims are dubious. “Claiming your pet is a service animal is technically a violation of federal and state law, but there’s no enforcement. There is also a broad misunderstanding of what does and does not constitute a service animal. Complaints to the state office of human rights are increasing, and experts say confusion is causing those with real service animals to be unnecessarily doubted.”

A fifth-grader at Highland Park Elementary brought a marijuana-laced candy bar to school and offered it to some of his classmates, though Kiro 7 News reports none of the students ate the candy. The student, who obtained the candy bar from a family member, was suspended. Properly labeling edibles–which often look just like regular candy or baked goods–to keep them out of children’s hands is a hot issue. Kiro notes that in Colorado, “emergency room visits for kids who eat edibles have soared” since the state legalized marijuana. Colorado currently has stricter regulations on edibles packaging than Washington does.
