So this definatly fits the descrition of weird and WTF?http://perezhilton.com/2010-06-24-sch...
I mean really? At 5 and 6! They haven't even reached puberty. I really cannot understand the mentality of certain people sometimes. How does this happen! It is ridiculous.
Hahahah Jamie the video was so funny! "Check out what happens to my abs in the sunlight!"
This is a book that has a page made out of the guys blood. Ewwwww. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newst...
Ahhh, I'd get queasy reading that page.... But a smart way to make the news xD.

OMG! That is my favorite football play EVER!!
I think that Amazon can sell it but it should not be easy to access.
Mod
Thats cool! It was not a book made for the public but more for a select few.
I felt ill after reading that. So glad they pulled that.
I do not understand why somebody would even write a book like that, but there are probably other books similar to this one.
It's hard when you're able to self-publish e-books on their site like that... not easy to police, and things that wouldn't get through any publishing house can get through there.
As I've been saying in the banned books thread... why do you think books need to be policed? I think banning books will eventually result into more problems than not banning them, whatever the content.
Okay, policed was a bad word. But I doubt any publisher would decide to put this book under their name. That's all I mean.
Mod
I also believe that you have a right to police your own reading materials and that parents have the obligation to do this for their children.
I don't see either of these actually banning books. They may include some banning, especially on the part of parents, but for the most part it is just disengaging themselves from questionable information and materials.
Tami, I like that! "Disengaging themselves from questionable information and materials." What a great way of putting it.

Companies do have a right to sell what they want but consumers influence companies greatly and if a company does not sell what consumers want, consumers get angry and boycott them.
yeah, I fully support Amazon's right to sell whatever they want. But I also believe you can write a book about whatever you want. And if this was published via-Amazon's self publishing tool... then yeah, they have a right to deny it for sure.Tahleen, I would agree that no major publisher would. But there are publishers out there that would definitely print this kind of stuff. It's been printed by other places for years.
I don't get it. Wasn't it Amazon that a couple of years ago was practically making it impossible to find books written by gay authors or that included gay themes??? Apparently they took down Ellen Degeneres book from their featured section, or whatever, and if you put it in their search it brought up some christian books with it or something?? I'm probably not getting this story right, but I definitely remember something about this...So they'll "police" the content when it's something normal and legal, but when it's illegal pedophile stuff it's all open access/here you go... crazy.
lol I LOVE that website Mandee. Are iPhones really that bad??
I don't know, Kelly, I don't have one, but I freaking LOVE that website too!! Sometimes I laugh so hard I start crying.
That website is amazing. It's perfect when you need to laugh!
I just saw an infomercial for Pajama Jeans. Its definitely weird, strange, funny, bizarre, huh? and WTF? So is anyone going to buy a pair? haha :)
bahaha that's hilarious. They look super tight on the people in the video, not at all like pajamas. Definitely a weird product!
Mod
I read it and it was hilarious there have only been a few other times I've ever laughed so hard.
That poor dog! You do have to be careful with dogs. My puppy will try to eat anything she can get her mouth on.I found this the other day. This guy makes little carvings on the tips of pencils:
Minature Art on Pencil Tips
Jen, I stumbled upon that just the other day.....sooo crazy! The ones that have interlinking pieces are the coolest.

I love title of this thread! It's awesome!!Here are some weird laws I have heard or read about. And there are others that made laugh or right out giggle. :)
1) In California, a law created in 1925 makes it illegal to wiggle while dancing.
(I'm from Cali and I didn't know this!!! I so should have been arrested by now. )
2) In Miami, it is forbidden to imitate an animal.
3) In Memphis, Tennessee, a woman is not to drive a car unless a man warns approaching motorists or pedestrians by walking in front of the car that is being driven.
(OMG it this true??!! That would cause so much traffic in CA then there already is.)
4) In Georgia, it is against the law to slap a man on the back or front.
(So where do you slap him when he's a jerk????)
5) In Providence, Rhode Island, it is against the law to jump off a bridge.
(Do you still put an arrest warrant on their death certificate??)
6) In Georgia, it's against the law to spread a false rumor.
( If only it were enforced during high school!!)
Mod
(So where do you slap him when he's a jerk????)
Upside the head? :)
In Utah, it used to be illegal to spit on the sidewalk. Not sure it is still on the books though.
It's also illegal to drive faster than a Seagull in Utah.
OMG!! LOL!!! Really? These are such weird laws, I can't help but laugh. :)

"Today while sitting in my college English class, I texted my boyfriend and told him that I was bored. Not even 5 minutes later he came bursting in the door yelling 'Troll in the dungeon!!...just thought you oughta know' and then collapsed on the floor just like in Harry Potter. Not only was the teacher laughing so hard he let us go early but I think I found the one."
First, this is hilarious. Second, how come fun things like this never happened in any of my classes?
I saw that on Pinterest too, made me laugh out loud. I could totally see that happening at my school.
Funny Pet Faces"
These faces are sooo cute. Love the dogs. The cat with the yellow eyes was a bit weird for me.
