The dumbness of americans is a symptom of thier power.

The best times in my life have been in the states. The southern part of the USA is a wonderful place and full of culture and human beings.

I have never met such generous and honest people and I have been all over the world.

They have no sense of empathy but I love em.

[SoMuch4Gravity]

our dumbness allows us to sneak up on the enemy, and our passed out friends to draw on them with sharpies

Judge Orders Concord Man To Bury Mummified Baby

 

http://www.wmur.com/news/14157668/detail.html

 

Probate Judge Richard Hampe said the mummified baby known as "Baby John" passed down for generations through Charles Peavey's family must be buried because there is no DNA evidence proving kinship.

 

Until police confiscated Baby John last year, the mummy had been on display on a bureau in Peavey's home. Relatives and friends treated the desiccated infant as a family member, giving it cards during holidays and even a dried fish as a pet.

Forklift removes 900-pound man from home

 

http://www.9news.com/news/watercooler/article.aspx?storyid=77576

 

Firefighters cut a hole in the side of a house and used a forklift to extricate a 900-pound man from his second-floor bedroom after a visiting nurse became worried about his health.

 

Rescue workers brought in a forklift, high enough to raise a platform to a hole cut into the wall of the house. They covered the man with a blue tarp to shield him from onlookers and slid the platform onto a flatbed truck for a trip to Sparrow Hospital.

My brother brought a load of Hershey miniatures back from California in the summer and they leave an aftertaste in your mouth thats almost exactly the same as when you are a bit sick in your mouth and then you swallow it. Seriously. Steer clear kids, Cadburys is where it's at.

[Section_31]

You can get Hershey bars in Woolies, along with those orange nut things and the peanut butter cups.

 

Overly sweet if you ask me, perhaps they would have tasted better coming from a GI in WWII London - when the only alternative was bricks.

[G Richards]

Hershey's is not very tasty, but I find it is edible if part of a smore. Take a Graham cracker (no relation), put some Hershey's chocolate on there, toast marshmallows and put them on to the chocolate so it starts to melt. They are nice at camp fires. The trick with the marshmallows is to keep them far enough from the flame so as to not burn, but to be patient enough to create a shell on the outside and hot liquid on the inside.

yeah we got given some on Halloween when we were on holiday over there and we also bought some Hershey's Kisses back for my workmates. They all taste like sick. The first time I tasted them I thought they'd gone off but they hadn't.

 

Having said that some people in the office liked them and didn't get the sick taste at all - weird huh? For me they actually taste like sick!!!! Fuckin disgusting drops of disease ridden sheep shit - that's what they are.

Portland's finest :-

 

Police officer accidentally sprayed burning man with pepper spray - KOINLocal6.com

 

PORTLAND - A man poured gasoline on himself, then lit himself on fire Wednesday morning, Portland Police said.

 

Thursday, police added to the story: in an effort to save the man, an officer went to grab a fire extinguisher from the trunk of her patrol car, but she grabbed riot-control-grade pepper spray instead and sprayed the man with that.

 

Daniel Shaull, 26, of Kansas, the man who lit himself on fire, succumbed to his injures Wednesday evening.

 

"What she pulled out of the truck of her police car was not the fire extinguisher she thought she was retrieving but it was in fact a large can of pepper spray," Police chief Rosie Sizer said.

 

Sizer added that while the spray is water based and is not an accelerant, that she feels badly for the officer.

 

"I feel very badly about the circumstances but I do not feel nearly as badly as the officer involved and I think the public can understand was really heart sick about what happened in the first place and was heart sick that she couldn't change the outcome and when she found out that she had applied the wrong product was even more heart sick."

Last night Americans elected three men who have recently been indicted, the author of pornographic works about Bigfoot, and a dead pimp.

[TheHowieLama]

The pimp is pretty great tbh.

[cloggypop]

A pimp who was found dead by Ron Jeremy.

Disappointingly quiet night then.
