Macklemore Song Causes Assault & 12 Other Times Music Has Gotten Someone Arrested

Great Song -- But Not On Repeat!

Last week, Samantha Malson was arrested for pushing and chocking her boyfriend Lars Hansen after a drunk Hansen refused to stop singing the song “Thrift Shop” by Macklemore. Sure, “Thrift Shop” is a great song, but hearing anything over and over again is going to be annoying.

Poor Lars is hardly the only person to suffer for a song. Read on, for more tales of music murder and mayhem. Keep reading »

You can use pasta sauce for a variety of things. You can put it on noodles. On chicken parm sandwiches. You can cover a piece of bread with it and call it Sauce Bread. And you can also rob a bank with pasta sauce as your weapon. That’s exactly what a woman in Clinton Township, Michigan, did last week. The woman, who is believed to be around 60 years old, placed a sack filled with the jar of sauce on the bank’s counter and claimed it was a bomb, before demanding that the bank teller give her money.

If You Commit A Crime, Distract The Victim With Your Boobs

Death By Breast
A woman killed her boyfriend with her boobs. Read More »

The boob tip of the day comes to us straight from a woman in San Francisco. When an argument over a parking spot in the Haight district escalated, the woman intentionally rammed her car into the man’s who would not let her have the parking spot. The woman, who was wearing a super, low-cut dress, drove away, leaving the man to deal with the accident. The victim remembered nothing. He didn’t know what kind of car she was driving, the license plate number or even what the woman looked like. He was, however, “able to give a detailed description of the suspect’s cleavage,” said the police. This is so good to know. When in doubt, use your boobs to detract from your bad behavior. I’m sure the victim will have plenty of fun picking boobs out of a police lineup. [Hypervocal[Cleavage photo from Shutterstock]

The 17 Dumbest Festivals Ever

Festivals are people gathering to have fun.  But which are the freakiest ones in the whole wide world?  We’ve rounded up 17 multiple-day extravaganzas that lure people to towns they normally wouldn’t visit if you paid them, to do things most normal people wouldn’t do.

From Japan’s Nakedness Festival, to the Redneck Games you see here, and way beyond — this weird festival photo gallery should not be missed.

Who knows, maybe this time next year we’ll see you attempting to rip the head off a goose or winning an alien pet costume contest.  Here’s hoping! Read more on TruTV…

The Gasoline Huffing Bears Of Russia Need Help

Gasoline huffing has become a serious problem for brown bears living on the Kronotsky Nature Reserve in Russia. The bear population has gotten into the kerosene and gasoline, which is used to power the reserve’s helicopters and generators, and have become addicted. The 1,200 pound creatures have taken to stealing fuel barrels, sniffing them until they get woozy and digging holes to pass out in.

Photographer Igor Shpilenok spent seven months documenting these bears and captured them in various stages gasoline use. According to Shpilenok, some of the bears have become so hard up to feed their addiction that they stalk departing helicopters so they can sniff the fumes at takeoff. That sounds like rock bottom to me. Maybe Jeff VanVonderen or Candy Finnigan can help. No bear deserves to live that way. [The Fixx[Photo credit: Igor Shpilenok]

Mariam, The Bearded Lady, Is Working It

Why are women supposed to be hairless? Read More »

After 20 years of trying to pluck, tweeze, laser and wax the facial hair that appeared after the birth of her son, 49-year-old Mariam finally decided to stop trying to hide her whiskers and let them grow. While unemployed and living alone, she decided to experiment with growing her beard.

“When I decided to let it grow it didn’t feel brave, it was more like a curiosity. I wanted to see what would happen to me. There was a big fear that everyone would turn away and nobody would talk to me anymore,” the bearded lady said during a recent appearance on the UK’s “This Morning.” Keep reading »

Dear Luo Dan,

I want to tell you that I’m feeling you wearing this deer head mask every day for the last four years. You started wearing it while you were making your art because it make you feel peaceful (no surprise that you’re a painter) and eventually, got used to wearing it and started to wear it all the time.

“The deer is a tame animal … Wearing its mask, I could find a long-missing inner peace. When I wear the mask, I feel I am a deer from within,” you said. Keep reading »

Manchester, home of the original goth Morrissey, is the first city to recognize alternative subcultures as motivation for hate crimes. Just last week the police force announced that it will now be illegal to harass or harm in any way goths, punks and emos. The police were inspired to protect these groups against hate crimes after 20-year-old goth girl Sophie Lancaster was attacked in a Manchester park in 2007 and died. Keep reading »

And Now We Have Breast Milk Jewelry

Strands from baby’s first haircut. The first tooth. Tiny footprints sunk into clay. Some parents even tuck away the dried stump of the umbilical cord or the stick pregnancy test as a touching memento marking the milestones of their kids. The latest? Breast milk jewelry, on sale at the handmade marketplace Etsy. Few issues polarize mothers more than breast-feeding, and all things related to breast-feeding, so wearing processed breast milk around the neck or in a bracelet has ignited some passions. Read more on Newser…
