Just when you thought nothing good would ever be in the news again, OJ Simpson comes back and robs a sports memorabilia collector at gunpoint in Las Vegas and the world goes back to normal. Thank you OJ.
My favorite quote so far is, “I’m O.J. Simpson. How am I going to think that I’m going […]

20% of Americans can’t find the US on a world map

20% of Americans can’t find the US on a world map and Miss South Carolina knows why.

Mr. Xishun shakes hands with Mr. Ping Ping

The world’s tallest man, recently married, met with the world’s shortest man in Inner Mongolia the other day. Priceless photo ops ensued. This might be one of my favorite events in history.

Steve Irwin dies and the reptiles of the world go fucking nuts! Check out this python that ate a pregnant sheep! Awesome.

the headbutt heard ’round the world

Everyone’s talking about Zinedine Zidane’s World Cup Final headbutt of Marco Materazzi. I have no opinion of the World Cup, of violence in sports, of international politics, or of France. I can only say that this is the single greatest headbutt I have ever seen…
