I kinda wanted to go in a bit of a different direction with news bits this week. So, here are some weird/stupid/offbeat/funny bits.

Weird

• Man who walked on the moon claims gov’t is covering up existance of aliens.
• Horrific/Scary-Weird: Manitoba teen dies after being buried under hot asphalt
• Boy bites dog.
• Some brides demand their bridesmaids get boob jobs
• AP declares US is winning Iraq War. In a similar move I declare today, July 27, to forever be international peanut-butter-and-pickle sandwich day. ¹

Offbeat

• Science!Dork-Offbeat: Even NASA f@#%s up sometimes.
• Helicopter parents are not just bad for their kids, they’re bad for the REST of us, too.
• Internet!Dork-Offbeat: Guys are jerks on the Internet. (Haven’t I babbled incoherently about this before?)

Stupid

• If bitten by a snake, jumper cables are not an effective treatment.
• Yahoo screwing customers who purchased DRM-ed music
• Old lady not allowed to photograph empty pool, because she possibly maybe might be a pedophile. Meanwhile, Internet user “IheartCP1235146452727f” is actually exploiting children.

Funny

• Man crashes car, is ejected and ends up on a roof, alcohol is BELIEVED to be a factor in the incident. XD
• 
• 
• Yes, lolcats are news.
• A British “heat wave” = a chilly day in Phoenix.
• Woman strips when Wal-Mart gets unreasonable.

I may not be able to post as much from now until I don’t know when, due to some personal issues. If you want more information², look here.

1. Ignore the biased conservative source, just focus on what the Associated Press is doing, please. Because, no, I am not a conservative. I am also not a peanut-butter-and-pickle-sandwicth lover. I just happen to be an idiot, thank you very much. [↩]
2. I don’t know why you would, but whatever. [↩]
