wtf



Somehow a 20-something Asian male disguised himself as an old caucasian male and boarded a plane from Hong Kong to Canada with only an Aeroplan card. The passenger's intention was to seek refugee status in Canada.

Yard On

I was behind this truck the other day.  It took me a minute, but I got it...  Just in case you can't read the writing on the truck:  "I've got a yard on for you!"  Bad humor at its best.

Watch out for that tree!

Just in case you were wondering how windy it has been in the midwest...  I found this tree limb with a diameter of more than 15" on top of Jason's car.

 Didn't see that coming!

I need volunteers! To look at my knives.

An old friend found this posted on a bulletin board.  Funny yet scary at the same time.  Would you volunteer?  (Thanks, Sara!)

This story is messed up in so many levels... A South Korean couple's 3-month old baby died after they had neglected her for 12 hour periods while nurturing their virtual child.

The husband and wife had been on the run since their baby, born prematurely, died five months ago of severe dehydration and malnutrition, police said. They were arrested this week near their home south of the capital Seoul and charged today with child abuse and neglect.

Police say the couple left their infant alone in their apartment and rushed back from the Internet cafe just once a day to feed her.

Advertising First: Banner Ads Attached to Flies

This 6'7" tall and 25 feet wide rubber band ball took Joel Waul five years to create.  The ball weighs more than 9,400 pounds and is made of 720,000 rubber bands.  I think Pee Wee would be proud.  Link

I've Discovered Something Amazing!



"I've discovered something amazing!" I hope it's the recycle bin. [via Nerd Salad]


Ten days after receiving a seasonal flu shot, Desiree Jennings came down with a rare neurological movement disorder called 'dystonia' [wiki]. Jennings primarily walks backwards or runs because walking forwards makes her body spasm into uncontrollable movements. [via Pig Jockey]


Leave it to the Japanese to come up with a big-boobed-spikey-nippled bee villain. Genius!

Any ideas on what this show is called? Betcha any money 'boobs' is in the title.
