shanmonster: (Sigh....)
My sleep schedule is all out of wack, but that's ok. I really don't mind getting to sleep at 7 am as long as I get 8 or so hours of sleep over the next twenty-four hours.

Want links? I've got your links right here.

Mayor Resigns, Claims Abduction By Satan Worshippers: I love America. It's easily as weird as Japan (thanks, [livejournal.com profile] warrenellis).

Steampunk: That's about right.

Doctors untangle the strange case of the giant hairball: Hoorah for bezoars!

Sunset Through Her Legs: Like an eclipse, only different.

German Man Invents 'Spray-On' Condom To Fit All Sizes: I can't help but wonder how this works without a reservoir tip.

'Muhammad' teddy teacher arrested: "A British schoolteacher has been arrested in Sudan accused of insulting Islam's Prophet, after she allowed her pupils to name a teddy bear Muhammad." Fundies do the damnedest things.

In Cold Flood: "In October 2007, an inebriated bride caused mayhem at a hotel in Hoffman Estates, Illinois, merely by attempting to stow her wedding dress after the ceremony and reception. The tipsy bride returned to her hotel at about 1 a.m. (the manager at the Hilton Garden Inn recalls her needing to be helped upstairs), went to her room, and hung up her dress." Find out why this resulted in a mass evacuation....

Velcro generation needs schooling to lace up: How sad is it that parents can't even be bothered to teach their kids something so useful as how to tie their shoes (thanks, [livejournal.com profile] gha5t)?

I Swallowed a Small Piece of Aluminum Foil: Sigh....

Man-sized sea scorpion claw found: Yup. A Starship Troopers-sized bug.

Mayor Resigns, Claims Abduction By Satan Worshippers

I'm just glad that this wasn't someplace in Kansas. It's always a relief when batshit crazy stuff happens that isn't in Kansas. Gives us a break from the headlines, you know?

Bah! No it isn't. :-P

And I just know this comment was for my benefit. It was, wasn't it? I knew it.

Die Sprühkammer

Like a car wash. With *jets of* latex. How do you spell mood-killer? Die Sprühkammer.

Found you via [livejournal.com profile] crasch. Blame him.

I worked at a shoe store 5 years ago and was astounded at the number of kids who, even at age 10, could not tie their shoes.

It was just so... I still shake my head about it.

"Man-sized sea scorpion claw found"

That's what I read, and I was hoping you meant "alive".

Ah well! -_-

The wedding dress flood isn't the only version of this I've seen.
I heard about someone at a furry convention hanging a costume on a sprinkler and causing it to activate in a similar manner. I don't know what other damage was caused by that incident, however.

Someday, someone's going to sue the hotel for not putting up signs to not hang stuff on the sprinklers. Because people who do boneheaded shit still think they oughta be able to sue someone.
