Florida man, 76, jailed for performing botched CASTRATION on a man he met on eunuch fetish website | Daily Mail Online

So remember guys, if you ever want to be castrated, call someone other than FloridaMan.

This was a big news story a couple of weeks ago while we were on vacation in New Hampshire. Glad to see it has a happy ending.

I'm just going to not click on that link - title's enough, thanks

SI

Provided there was a good seal, I think we can put this right next to abstinence as 100% guarantees that pregnancy won't occur.

I skimmed it and I think he died more from the mixture of the glue with drugs that they used to get high, then decided what the hell let's use the same mixture as a makeshift condom. I don't think it was solely due to a blockage caused by the glue which is what the title suggests.

Yeah, the story is actually about a reaction to the adhesive, but it’s a hell of a headline!

Reminded me of this:

Of all the ways to die, dying in an elevator that shoots up 30 stories was not even on my radar.

That suuuuuucks

Medical mystery: Woman gives birth to children, discovers her twin is actually the biological mother

Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you... SCIENCE.

The puppy was quoted, saying, "They're our guys! They're Americans! They're Delta Force!"

Woman Accused of Starting Fawn Fire Was Boiling Bear Urine to Drink

At least she was boiling it. Cold would be disgusting.

Sadly, my first thought at that article is "thank goodness it wasn't PG&E."

Often the story does not live up to the headline, but there was more than enough other weird stuff in that story to live up to the initial billing.

Also, my wife, when hearing just the headline: "How do you get enough urine to do that? Do you go up to hibernating bears and put their paw in warm water?"

SI

This is more of a YouTube video than a story, but it will eventually be put into story form, so why not just skip right to song? This has taken social media by storm today, it seems.

This is awesome.

We all should take some drunken time here and there to find ourselves.

:D

In case anyone didn't know, the war on heavy metal from the 1980s is still being fought.

Parents Want High School Principal Removed For Listening To IRON MAIDEN; Students Rally Behind Her - Loaded Radio

Wouldn't this basically be like parents trying to get a principal in the 90s fired because she said she liked Elvis and they didn't like how he swung his hips?

SI

Was Iron Maiden one of the bands whose records the adults of the 80's were spinning backwards searching for devil worship?

Meanwhile, Indonesia's president is an over the top metal head.

Maiden got shit for The Number of the Beast, but the ironic part is they are one of the most educated metal bands in the world. They regularly write about history and literature. I wrote my junior and senior high school English papers on Rime of the Ancient Mariner and Charge of the Light Brigade (The Trooper), both of which inspired Maiden songs. And Bruce Dickinson is basically a modern day Renaissance man. He's not only a metal singer and literature/history buff, but he's a pilot who flies the band's plane on their tours.

and to demonstrate this we’d like to exclude someone who we don’t like :rolleyes:

Had to look it up. That is pretty cool.

This has gone national, as I expected. Note that the principal is also the town mayor.

It never ceases to amaze me that so many people allow these things to happen and not one person in an authority position says, "Uh guys, perhaps this isn't going to look all that great once the inevitable pics and videos hit social media."

Kentucky school's Man Pageant, lap dances lead to disciplinary action

I read that and thought it really wasn't that different from stuff we used to do in high school. I thought it was pretty damn tame, and the KY parents that were up in arms about it should probably focus more on their kids getting some sort of sorely lacking sex education, rather than what kids do during a pep rally.

Seriously? That is beyond inappropriate in a school setting. I'm not sure what any of that has to do with a pep rally to begin with - or why you would link it to sex education...?

I'm with Ksyrup. I know stuff happens off-campus, but I can't imagine a scenario where this is an appropriate in-school activity. It's simply shocking that nobody had the sense to nix this.

I really think it's a nothingburger and the mortality police need to give teenage students a break, and let them have a bit of breathing room.

Not in school, and especially not WITH teachers. That's insane. And was back in the 80s too.

Also... LOL at mortality police.

:lol:

UCSB is building a 4500 person dorm with no windows in bedrooms because a 97 year old donor demands it.

Architect Resigns in Protest over UCSB Mega-Dorm

This is what you do when you're crazy and rich, right?

I woke up yesterday, wondering if this sort of design drives people to suicide or helps innovation. Here's $200M to put this to the test. Who cares if the peasants die: it's science!

EDIT: I wonder if there's also some odd legacy chasing mixed in. Like maybe he's banking on overpopulation and if this sort of "high density" housing takes off, in 500 years, they'll still have "Munger cities", which would far outlast any silly single building he could donate like a library or whatever.

It's pretty obvious he wants the kids to be ready for the zombie apocalypse.

Some people just deserves the death penalty (and her boyfriend too). She must be "mentally ill" but better to just get these people out of the gene pool. I really really hope those kids find much better foster parents to live with.

So they are building a prison on campus?

Pretty sure prison cells have to have natural light.

I guess it was his time.

Mmmmm, Roger Waters spit on a fan and then he wrote The Wall.

I wonder what album this will lead to.
