Gilbert's Weird News from the Dark Side 1/10/2014

I've been busy with the holidays and I haven’t done a tales from the Dark Side for a while. There was and is, all kinds of crazy going on in the world; good and bad, and luckily for me, I never run out of material, for example:

Why can’t Santa and Jesus be other than Caucasian?

Why hate the poor?

What is Space X up to? I love these people.

                                                                 Weird News

And now from my favorite source of Weird News, The Huff Post, we have a man claiming that Big Foot ate his pizza.

Not for anything, but I have this problem too; it's called teenage grandsons.


Another story featured on Huff Post concerns a woman's choice of weapon storage

I don't know about you, but...a purse would be my choice of holster. Let's hope she doesn't carry when visiting her Gynecologist.  

And last, but not least, let's end the Weird News with this little gem. Always check the background of the person who is babysitting your child.

The punishment wasn't severe enough for the callous stupidity of this young lady.


Hope you enjoyed this post, my little zombie snacks, and I'll see what I can find for next week.

If only it really worked and I could hop over to Napa California whenever I needed another bottle of wine:)

Yes, my little zombie snacks; it's that time of the week again. I have more weird news thanks to Huff post and a few other sites. Hope you enjoy the latest in weird.


This came from the Upworthy site by Adam Mordecai. How to get the politicians to admit that our climate is changing and not for the good? You'll love this solution:

Funny review of our tax code

Hmm? This next video is funny, but troubling! When we restrict the least among us the chance to vote, then we deny ourselves to claim that this is a country of equality.

Tales from the Dark Side, August 2, 2013

                                                                      

Okay my little zombie snacks. What is it with men and politics. Is there some kind of sleaze virus 

attacking men's brains when they enter the realm of politics?


                                                       Except for Michele Bachmann
                       

                                                                       and Sarah Palin,

                                                                           

 Who are just plain strange, you don't hear that much crazy news coming from the ladies.

But the men, are going a bit nuts. Here are two of the wacko politicians who've

made the front page within the last few months. You can't make this shit up!


Listed under scumbag extraordinaire, we have the ever popular Anthon Weiner: I love John Oliver's take on this whole mess.

http://youtu.be/DK8hgba0fw0


Not to be left in the dust, we have a second runner-up with Mayor Bob Filner.

http://youtu.be/AWEgpCwNGis


In the "Oh my GOD! There really is a Sharknado" department, we have this breaking news from Huff Post.
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/08/02/shark-found-pub-door-nantucket-sea-dog_n_3694596.html?utm_hp_ref=weird-news

Really, a street lamp? Whose in charge of this department?

http://now.msn.com/letter-sent-to-streetlight-by-meridian-energy-power-company



From the "Ouch" department that women understand only too well, and man can only imagine (think really big kidney stones) we have this breaking news report.

Sometimes, there is great stuff in the news. I love science and enjoy watching anything that features Neil degrasse Tyson.

So enjoy this video!! If you want to watch intelligent people handing out good science information, watch this.

News from the Dark Side, July 26th

                                                                    

What is it with male politicians and their junk? Why do they need to show it; text it; or wind up on National News because they can’t keep it safely tucked away. Just saying…I’m not gonna trust a man to handle a city, state or country if he can’t even keep his junk tucked away….Okay, I’m done ranting. Now for the weird stuff:

 

Love John Oliver's take on Candidate Weiner
