:O
That looks like an attempt at an actual Spoof story but it's real life. Real life and Spoof are now starting to blur not a good thing. Thx for that link, made my morning.

NOTE: I once got BANNED for including an embedded link in a forum post. See ya Mark. However, if you're still around tomorrow .. this would make an excellent second game here .. posting the funniest REAL NEWS story. You won this one with the grey haired bag ladies but I'm sure there's more like that one out there, stuff stranger than Spoof even.

When I first saw this headline I thought it said Paris Hilton Syndrome.

'aris Syndrome' strikes Japanese

Ah, the French, c'est formidable!


Many of the visitors come with a deeply romantic vision of Paris - the cobbled streets, as seen in the film Amelie, the beauty of French women or the high culture and art at the Louvre.

The reality can come as a shock.

Woman Accused Of Trying To Kill Husband With Wasps

All good entries in this one but can you imagine the local St. Louis TV KSDK anchor person trying to keep a straight face telling the story about the .. wasps.
Wouldn't have been so funny if the man hadn't been allergic to em but he WAS!!!




Good find Moose and Squirell.
I would die laughing just hear'n the intro by an anchor on our local DC station talking about the Wasps getting out of their cone homicide.

It must be a pain in the arse to roll them back up and reseal the packaging.
