Three Naked College Bros, Hungry for Beef, Break Into Burger Shack

A typical night in Southwest Florida: three butt-ass naked college guys broke into a burger shack looking for raw meat. They stole 60 burgers, three pounds of bacon, three red peppers, and a paddleboard from Doc's Beach House around 3 a.m. The bros (and all their meat) remain at large.

Doc's Beach House waitress Nancy Sansevieri called these unidentified bros "knuckleheads," which is fair. "Dumb, dumber, and dumbest," she continued. Security cameras caught them in the act. (Police released some of the footage, but the only dude really visible is the one who was wearing tighty-whities. Shame.)

Doc's general manager at least has a sense of humor about the robbery. "When I saw the security footage, I said how is this guy not wearing any clothes? Then I said, 'Wait, it's not just one. There's three naked.' That's what makes this funny." Yep.

Man Gets Run Over by His Own Pickup Truck During Road Rage

Joseph H. Carl was driving home from a bar in Gainesville, Fla. Tuesday when he rear-ended a car that was stopped at a red light. Drunk and enraged, he got out of his pickup truck and began banging on the windows of the vehicle he'd just hit. If only he'd remembered to put it in park first.

The driver in front of him, justifiably terrified, sped off, freeing Carl's car to begin rolling, the Gainesville Sun reports. He extended his arms in an attempt to stave off the inevitable, but it was too late, and the truck ran him over.

Carl smelled strongly of alcohol when the police arrived, and refused treatment from paramedics. There was a cold, opened Miller High Life and several other empty beer cans inside the truck, but the man insisted to cops that he didn't drink and drive. When they asked about the empties, he reportedly told them "he was only drinking while he drove home."

The 48-year-old refused a breathalyzer test but failed field sobriety tests, and was arrested for DUI. Eventually, he was taken to University of Florida Health Shands Hospital for treatment of fractures on his foot and hand. There, he blew a .22 blood-alcohol level, three times Florida's legal limit.

Southwest Kicks Dad and Kids Off Flight After Tweeting Complaint

Duff Watson claims that he and his two daughters were forced off their Southwest Airlines flight from Denver to Minneapolis after he tweeted a complaint about the agent at the gate. Only after all three had exited the plane and the agent watched Watson delete the tweet were they allowed back on the plane. The agent apparently told him that his tweet constituted a security threat.

Watson, an A-List Southwest Member, is allowed to board flights early. But apparently, the gate agent refused to allow his children to board early with him.

"I am not trying to game the system," Watson told ABC News. "I'm not going to leave my kids alone to board. That doesn't make sense."

The agent then allegedly told Watson that he and his children would have to wait until the rest of the A-list members boarded before they could walk onto the plane.

"We waited, which was fine," Watson said. "I thought she was very rude and wanted to complain to customer service, so I asked her: 'Can I get your last name?'"

That's when he tweeted the supposed tweet in question. (Watson's Twitter has since been made private.)

"Something to the effect of, 'Wow, rudest agent in Denver. Kimberly S, gate C39, not happy @SWA,'" Watson told the CBS affiliate in Minneapolis.

After sending the tweet, Watson and his kids finally boarded the plane, where the ordeal apparently escalated: An announcement was made on the plane that Watson exit the aircraft. After leaving the plane with his daughters, he claims to have been approached again by the same gate agent.

"She [the agent] said I was a safety threat," Watson told ABC News. "I was shocked. There was no use of profanity, there were no threats made. How was I a safety threat?"

The gate agent allegedly threatened to call the police unless Watson deleted the tweet, and watched as Watson removed the offending tweet from his timeline and then ordered them back on the plane.

Southwest has apparently apologized to Watson for the incident. From WCCO:

Southwest Airlines sent a statement which confirmed that a customer was removed for a short time and continued on to Minneapolis. They also said the incident is under review.

In an email to Watson, Southwest apologized for the incident. Because of confidentiality concerns, they could not disclose any disciplinary actions taken.

Watson says he's not satisfied with their response. All three received $50 vouchers, but Watson says he won't fly Southwest Airlines again.

"I'm not going to fly them again," Watson told ABC News. "I wish I didn't back down, I wish I didn't delete the tweet. But under that quid pro quo situation, I did it."

4-Year-Old Banned From Donut Shop for Asking Woman If She's Pregnant

A curious kid has reportedly been banned from a Monroe, Conn., donut shop because he asked another customer whether she was pregnant. She was not. She was just in a donut shop.

Four-year-old Justin Otero's mother, Rebecca Denham, told WFSB she was "mortified" at Justin's question and apologized immediately on her son's behalf.

"My response was 'Oh my goodness, I'm so embarrassed, I'm so sorry,'" Denham said.

The woman took it all in stride and accepted the apology, but the managers of the Doughnut Inn don't forgive so easily. When Denham and Justin showed up the next morning, they were told the little boy wasn't welcome.

"She said, 'he's not allowed in here,' and I looked around, and said, 'him?' and she said 'yeah, he's rude'," Denham told WFSB.

Denham says she tried to explain the situation to Justin and feels he "sort of" understands what happened. For now, she says they'll be "taking their business elsewhere," as if Doughnut Inn gave them a choice.

The manager and owner of the donut shop declined to comment.

Chemtrails Don't Exist and Shasta County Is Ground Zero for Stupid

The makers of Reynolds Wrap are thrilled to announce the latest loony chapter in the long running battle against chemtrails, with residents of Shasta County, California DEMANDING that their county stop the federal government from spraying them with non-existent chemicals. L'horreur!

If you haven't heard, the "chemtrail" conspiracy theory insists that the condensation trails (contrails) left behind by the moist exhaust of high-flying aircraft are really jets of chemicals sprayed out to make you sick or change the weather. It's a well-documented strain of crazy and patently untrue.

Well, it's the middle of the summer and they're at it again. Last week, more than 400 people set an attendance record at the County Board of Supervisors meeting in Shasta County, California to bring attention to and demand action on the scourge of chemtrail spraying. Supervisor Les Baugh announced the topic as "a discussion to receive input and discuss matters regarding geoengineering chemtrails, consider providing direction to staff, and consider taking other appropriate action as necessary."

In other words, Shasta County decided to let the crazies talk craziness. According to mtshastanews.com, the Board actually agreed to investigate the "chemtrails" by the end of the meeting.

In a unanimous decision during their regular meeting July 15, Supervisors David Kehoe, Leonard Moty, Pam Giancomini, Bill Schappel and Chair Les Baugh agreed to determine if the county's current monitoring program is up to detecting the presence of aluminum oxide nan-oparticles in the air, water and soil.

Schappel rejected a suggestion from county staff to rely on federal studies on the issue, stating, "Any federal information will be skewed. We need a local study, then take the results to the feds and say, what about this?"

Here is the hour-long meeting in its entirety, with the main discussion led by the man who makes a lot of money off of gullible people by running a website called "Geoengineering Watch."

[YT]O4WhYKP83zo[/YT]

Mr. Baugh entertained most of the questions. Around the 13 minute and 20 second mark, he asks the guy who runs Geoengineering Watch "why does the spraying create a drought in California and flooding in the Midwest?"

The guy answered:

When you aerosolize the storm track, and the science backs up what I'm saying word-for-word, you diminish and disperse the rain. This is not seeding to create rain, it's seeding to create artificial cloud cover. And because there's too many condensation nuclei it tends to disperse that moisture exactly as we've seen over California again and again.

He went on to say that the top scientist for the California Energy Commission agreed with him, as do M.I.T. and Scientific American.

The problem is, he's talking out of his ass. The science does not back up what he's saying, because there is no truth behind the assertion that airplanes from California to Tennessee to North Carolina to France and beyond are spraying chemicals to alter the weather or make people sick. It's just not true. Two months ago I covered most of the chemtrail conspiracy theorists' assertions in a post called "Why I Write About (and Debunk) the Chemtrail Conspiracy Theory."

Lately, they've been using one ridiculous argument that I haven't mentioned in any of my previous posts. They point out that a man filed a patent back in the 1990s to spray chemicals into the atmosphere to stem global warming, claiming that this is proof positive that airplanes are leaving behind immense trails of chemicals. No, it's not. Using chemmie logic, there is also a patent for a time machine, so that proves my theory that Doctor Who is a documentary.

Shasta County, California isn't the only place infected by the asinine conspiracies. Earlier this month, an Arizona State Senator held a meeting in Lake Havasu City to address citizens' concerns about condensation trails. Raw Story reports that officials in Tennessee are also having to deal with a "rising tide of idiots" asking about chemtrails.

If you're waiting with bated breath for their next outburst of lunacy, it's going to be a while. They're too preoccupied with the conspiracies surrounding MH17 to spray out any new nonsense.

Just blows my mind that there can be that many stupid people who think this is a real thing

Stalker Sends "I'm Watching You" Text From Under Teen Girl's Bed

Here's a horror film come to life: a stalker broke into a 16-year-old girl's house and sent her an "I'm watching you" text from under her bed. The stalker — Kyle Ravenscroft, 18 —also texted the girl he was going to kill himself so that she'd find him hanging outside her window.

According to police reports, Ravenscroft broke into the girl's home in Chester, England while her mother was home. After getting threatening texts from him, the girl went to sleep in her mother's room. Ravenscroft then hid under the girl's bed. She found him the next morning after experiencing the eerie sensation that someone was, indeed, watching her.

From the Daily Mail:

Prosecutor Rob Youd told the court she checked under the bed after having the feeling that someone was watching her. ... She then noticed that all her shoe boxes, normally neatly lined-up under her bed, had been moved. She crouched down and saw him hiding under it.

She said, "What are you doing under my bed?" and he said he had been asleep.

Ravenscroft fled after the girl's mother came into the room, but not before stealing the girl's phone. He eventually surrendered to police after jumping out of a first floor window in his own home.

The judge sentenced him to a fine, community service, and probation. A restraining order now prevents him from contacting the girl.

That psycho got off pretty easy. Won't be too long before he kills a hooker or something crazy

Man Goes to Hospital for Circumcision, Wakes Up Without a Penis

A medical malpractice suit filed in Birmingham, Ala. claims that doctors at an area hospital amputated a man's penis without his consent while he was unconscious for a circumcision.

The suit names the hospital, Alabama Urology Centers, and two doctors as defendants, and alleges that the cock-chopping happened last month.

From AL.com:

"When the plaintiff ... awoke from his aforesaid surgical procedure, his penis was amputated," according to the lawsuit. The plaintiffs "never gave consent for the complete or partial amputation of (his) penis."

The man claims he was never given a specific reason why his penis was amputated, only that doctors apparently made the decision after complications with the procedure. He reportedly "suffered additional/extended pain and suffering during his recovery," — which, yep, makes sense — and his wife alleges loss of consortium.

San Francisco Pervert Professor Allegedly Filmed Students in Bathroom

The San Francisco Examiner reports that a San Francisco State University professor was charged with 15 misdemeanor counts of invasion of privacy after secretly filming students in his home bathroom.

Assistant District Attorney Alex Bastian told the Examiner that 38-year-old accounting professor Mark Landis was arrested on Wednesday. He is alleged to have secretly filmed multiple current and former San Francisco State students while they used the bathroom, after inviting them to his home for a party. Landis was found out when a student noticed a suspicious tissue box:

The investigation into Landis began last November, according to court records. Prior to the investigation, a student reportedly at Landis' San Francisco home for a party went to use the bathroom. Once inside, he noticed a tissue box that seemed to have a flashing light coming from underneath it. He looked under the box and found a camera. The student reportedly took the memory card from the camera.

Argh, and think of how much time he spent devising that genius tissue box plot just to have it thwarted by some student. The student then examined the memory card—whoops!—and found a bunch of footage of guests unknowingly being filmed in the bathroom.

Landis resigned on July 17, and is currently out of custody on a $100,000 bail. The Examiner reports that he'll return to court on July 29.

Gays Possessed by "Fart Demons": Pastor

http://www.queerty.com/pastor-claim...emons-that-can-drive-pigs-to-suicide-20140723

Just when we thought we’d heard it all, this guy opened his mouth.

Bert Farias (pictured), founder of Holy Fire Ministries, claims to know the “raw, naked truth” about why people are gay: They are possessed by “fart demons.” Yes, fart demons.

Oh, but it gets better.

Farias also claims that in choosing to be gay, a person chooses to engage in “unclean demonic practices.” Once that happens, they become possessed by “putrid-smelling” demons so stinky they can drive pigs to suicide.

In an interview with Charisma magazine, Farias begged gay people to “not get upset with me” as he explained his groundbreaking new theory.

“[You] will see that I am actually trying to help you,” he assured them.

He continued: “Homosexuality is actually a demon spirit. It is such a putrid smelling demon that other demons don’t even like to hang around it.”

That has to be satire. That is just too stupid to even belong in this thread.

Reminds me of this.
http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2013/03...ra-in-boys-locker-room-expected-to-post-bond/

A 17-year-old boy accused of hiding a camera in the boys’ locker room at Crystal Lake Central High School was released on bail on Friday.

Luke Patrick Gildea, of Crystal Lake, has been charged as an adult with two felony counts of unauthorized video recording. CBS 2′s Susanna Song reports a McHenry County judge set his bond at $15,000 Friday morning, and he posted the required 10 percent bail to go free a couple hours later.

Neither Gildea nor this father spoke to reporters as they left the courthouse. Gildea covered his face with the hood of his sweatshirt.

Earlier, his father said Gildea is a good kid, but would not discuss the case.

This bit explains it:

And how exactly does Farias know all this?

One of God’s prophets personally phoned to let him know.

“A genuine prophet of God told me that the Lord allowed him to smell this demon spirit, and he got sick to his stomach,” he said.

The man is clearly sick in the head.
