🎶 Things are sick and twisted from too much sun and Nazis. Sex, meth, and death fetishes, both of them have got these. Guaranteed not to bore ya, it's Germany or Florida 🎶

The carpentry accident was just a cover, he lost the finger to that squirrel he took in from the wild. Further proof that you can't ever trust a feral squirrel, no matter how long they've been domesticated.

> In over 80% of cases, the extra lid forms on the right eye, while less than a fifth see it appear on the left. The concensus amongst Biologists is that this is due to the anticlockwise circulation of the wind in areas rife with camel populations.
Wait so literally three lids, not three pairs of lids? Also, why would the circulation of the wind make a difference? Do the camels only walk in one direction their whole lives?

Reply to TIL At the 1904 World's Fair in St. Louis, Missouri, an angry mob burned down an arena and rioted following the last minute cancelation of a bullfight. Manuel Cervera Prieto was later murdered over lack of payment by fellow bullfighter Carleton Bass. by jamescookenotthatone
Same thing happened in Fantasia in 1940 only it was an angry mop, not mob.

Reply to TIL the Japanese United Red Army conducted an internal purge of its members in 1972, killing 12, including 1 member killed for asking for tissues. by JakeyZhang
To be fair on that last one, Hiroko Nagata, the group's leader had a son named "Myn-ose," and became incensed when one of her soldiers asked for a tissue and said "I need to blow my nose."

Reply to TIL The writer for "Die Hard with a Vengeance" was investigated by the FBI after they revealed that his story's plan of robbing the Federal Reserve through a breached subway wall would have worked by fortifier22
It all seemed a little far fetched until they got to the part where Bruce Willis used a dump truck full of gold bricks to surf a gigantic wave through an aqueduct and then the authorities couldn't deny how likely this was to actually happen and began their investigation.

Brother, crispy onion straws are a thing, and a beautiful one at that. Sometimes they're an add-on to your steak at a fancy steak house, or an add-on to your burger at a non-fancy Applebee's. Either way they're delish, like yummy fried air. And you weren't far off on your initial impression of me, I definitely love me some ranch and/or blue cheese.

We often give out best nuggets as life drains from us. "Jefferson lives;" "this is no time to be making enemies;" "either that wallpaper goes or I do;" "more weight;" "capital punishment, those without the capital get the punishment;" "hurry it up, you Hoosier bastard! I could hang a dozen men while you’re screwing around!” etc.
