After a call for more interesting topics, i thought we could share some things that are just a bit... different. News articles, things that may have happened to you (ghost stories, weird people, anything... odd)... anything that's just unbelievably odd, stupid or funny. Please do share, we have to get these social threads going to keep the forum running

Why am I not surprised... -_- It doesn't matter that a life has been lost because of that rich uh, person....But now he has to make the family suffer even more. And why? Because his precious little car had some blood and dents? -_- Hardly on the same level as a life.

HELSINKI (Reuters) - A hospital patient in Finland found a mouse head among the steamed vegetables on his plate.

I like how they blame another country for their sick, disgusting, ways..

LONDON (Reuters) - Forty years after feminists threatened to burn their bras, British women have won another battle in the fight for equality.

A letter that a young girl in Japan sent into the sky in a balloon some 15 years ago has been found on a fish hauled from 1,000 metres (3,300 feet) below the Pacific.

Kristen DeGroat just wanted to sell her horse to another animal lover, but her ad ended up under "Good Things to Eat" in the classified sections of two newspapers. About a third of the 60 or so calls she received were from people interested in buying horse meat.

Now this one is freaking stupid. Since when was it illegal to sell alcohol to a 19 year old? Just because he doesn't have ID? That is dodgy.

I so should have known that, especially considering how many friends I have in finland

Those crazy fins... they never cease to amuse me. Their language is a pain though, I must say. Took me half an hour for me to translate the words "Healmonkey" correctly into finnish, just so I could call my finnish friend who played an assist class in a MMORPG it.

Because. Healing and buffing other characters is an incredibly useful skill.

Plus this was on Flyff, so assists were damn useful. Without a healer, your character is pretty much doomed when going against higher level monsters.
