Needless to say the internet is an endless source of weirdness, and thank God for that. How else would we be able to keep up with this kind of news?

Guy Dunks Head into Bucket of Urine for $450

If you know how to work the system, you can become a rich man pretty easily these days. Want a free iPhone? Just show off that teeny weeny of yours on a Danish porn site. What about an overpriced reptile? Down a few dozen roaches, avoid death, and BAM-- that $850 snake is yours. But for most of us, the whole “working the system” thing isn’t in the cards, because we’re dumb.

Woman Keeps Getting Naked at Ice Park

Jeremy Taylor — Mon, 10 Sep 2012 11:00:28 +0000

Usually when people wanna see some exposed skin, they satisfy their craving by heading to a nude beach to rudely leer from behind sunglasses, or they visit their favorite porn site, weepy and alone in their basement on Saturday night. (Both hypotheticals, of course.) A nude beach and the internet are two places where you’d be surprised if you didn’t run into a naked person.

The Carjacker from Another Dimension

Adam West — Thu, 02 Jun 2011 16:12:26 +0000

I love weird news stories, you know the kind of stories where people aren't exactly the sharpest tool in the shed. I ran across this one while perusing newspapers from around this great nation of ours, and it made me chuckle. Dateline: Portsmouth, New Hampshire. A convicted felon is being held on $25,000 cash bail for allegedly carjacking a woman, along with other charges including receiving stolen property, driving while intoxicated, and disobeying a police officer. During his arraignment, Douglas Ellison said he was from the '5th dimension'.

Man Gets Skull Tattooed Over His Face [VIDEO]

Amory Gritta — Tue, 22 Feb 2011 12:00:24 +0000

While I don't believe having your face tattooed is actually a prerequisite for having the nickname "Mad Dog", I assume it can't hurt your odds of keeping the nickname for years to come.

The 27-year-old pictured here is "Mad Dog" Deon and yes, that is a real tattoo of a skull covering his face. That is not Sharpie you see there but actual ink that has been permanently etched into his skin.

Man Calls 911 To Ask Questions About His Marijuana Plant [AUDIO]

Amory Gritta — Tue, 08 Feb 2011 12:00:38 +0000

We've all heard about the misuse of 911 over the past year... people calling with non-emergency issues and tying up the lines that should be open in the case of an actual emergency.

This may, however, be the first time that you've heard someone call in and rat themselves out.

Robert J. Michelson was curious about how much trouble he could get into for growing one solitary marijuana plant. So instead of going online like most of us might do when we had a question about the legality of a matter we are already involved in, he called 911 to ask the dispatcher that very question.

Despite numerous attempts by the dispatcher to disengage from the call for a non-emergency matter, Michelson pressed onward to get the answer to his question. Shortly thereafter, police arrived at Michelson's home and found both him and the marijuana plant in question, whereupon Michelson was arrested. The plant, however, was not charged in the matter.
