Bug found in Google search systems, impossible search term with porn as result

"What does "-4^(1/4)" mean and why is it connected to porn?" is what a user of Google asked on Quora, a question & answer website. The Google user searched for "-4^(1/4)", and suprisingly, porn showed up as a result with safesearch off. When safesearch is on, it shows no results. Jeremy Hoffman, Google software engineer, replied to this question last friday.

Arachnophobia, fear of spiders and other arachnids such as scorpions. Some people seems to actually suffer from this. Like a 66-year-old Australian woman who tried to kill a spider in her bathroom one week ago, to no avail. She ended up accidentally blowing up her own bathroom!

Used heroin needle found in bread loaf

Just imagine. You're making youself (or someone else) a sandwich. You grab a loaf of bread you bought at the supermarket. You get ready to cut a slice or two off, when suddenly... A bloody heroin needle pops up. That's exactly what happened to a Manchester mother while making her 10-year-old son a sandwich.

Man robbed in motel room by men in women's lingerie

Another thing you don't see often. Well, you hear about it, maybe read about it, or see them on the internet. But it seems that nowadays crossdressers are also robbing people. Two men dressed in women's lingerie robbed a man in a motel room last friday. The man thought he was meeting up with two lovely ladies, but always expect the unexpected.

Wanted: Dead or Alive

Well it seems that Quentin Tarantino's new western movie, Django Unchained, is leaving quite an impact on people around the world. Even though it sounds like a great movie, I haven't seen it yet. However 28-year old Anthony Swinburn probably did. He has been on the run from the police for more than two months now, and is bragging about it in a very special way.

Good Vibes, Bad Vibes

Most people are amazed if they hear weird stories about recent events. But they can feel a certain way. One can think: 'What the hell?' in a positive way or a negative way. I guess it depends on the situation. Some examples:

Introduction

Hello and welcome to my new blog!

I'm starting this blog because 1, I used to have a blog about UFO's back in 2011, but I was pretty busy at the time so I stopped updating it. But now I have found some interest again, and some more time! And also because 2, I have an interest in remarkable, odd, weird, and bizarre stuff happening recently from all over the world.

I am not really talking about paranormal and/or conspiracy stuff, but more in the likes of stuff with a hidden (and sometimes obvious) sense of humour. I had this idea for a while now, but an article I read recently made me actually do it. The article itself can be found here. It descibes how a man in Florida found himself naked on a family's rooftop at 7 p.m. and after jumping from the roof, he starts to take a television off the wall and rubs the family's clothing on his face, empties the vacuum cleaner with his mouth and after almost being shot 3 times he starts to masturbate furiously on the ground.

Me personally found the article not only incredibly hilarious but also simply amusing to read. That why I want to share news like this with you people, this being my first post!
