Alright, finally got through the whole thread. Here's some (hopefully) new stuff;

In the vein of "list of unusual deaths" we have http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...d_mysteriously

Some really cool ones on there, notably DB Cooper but his article has been posted in here before. Hundreds of names there, most of which have their own article. Jimmy Hoffa, the trio who escaped from Alcatraz in '62 are notably well known but they're all pretty interesting.

Titor is an obv troll, nothing he said came true.

With the caveat 'everything that could happen does happens in a universe made up of infinite planes of parrallel existence' the truth could still be out there...lol

This one blows my mind:

Holy sh*t... Russians suck.

been to tybee 3 times. awesome, awesome place.

get the locals drunk/stoned enough, they'll tell you that they haven't been in the ocean in 15 years because they think there's radiation. true story. after buying a guy a beer so he'd let me ride his bicycle around the parking lot (don't ask), i asked if him and his girl wanted to go down to the beach to smoke a joint. he said, 'maaan, i haven't been to the beach in years.'

keep in mind, we were no more than 100 yards off the beach at a outside tiki bar.

when we got down there, i got my feet in the water smoking the joint, and went to pass to him, and he wouldn't go into the water. like, literally wouldn't walk 5 feet to me to grab the joint until i came up 5 feet into the sand to pass it to him.

when i asked, he explained...'dude there's a nuke in the water out there, and i ain't getting radiation poisoning'..

i hotboxed the **** out of it next round and politely broke off.

actually, i feel it's the opposite of that.

if you knew if you killed a man, that they had some sort of system to ensure that you absolutely would die too 30 minutes after killing them, would you kill them?

just because it's effective doesn't mean it's a good idea. by that logic everyone should walk around with c4 strapped to their chest just in case. i guess i'm thinking of false positives, or just potential for epic disaster.

i also wouldn't single out russia as i'm pretty sure several countries have something equally terrifying laying in wait.

Saw part of a documentary on this guy. He's like one of those cliche hollywood teachers but for real, and his little 5th graders made me feel pretty stupid.

I watched a documentary of Jim Jones in a psych class. It was a real kool-aid moment. The pictures of people all over each other was sick.

this was awesome.
