From the Department of Totally Fucking Awesome: A thief broke into my car. I used Craigslist, a dating site, MySpace and a fast food joint to track him down

See, aspiring thief, you just never know what you’re stepping into when you hit up a random car on a random street. However badass you think you may be, there is someone on the other side of the robbery. And in this particular case it was someone who escaped the Iranian Revolution as a child; who roamed the world alone for five years because her parents couldn’t get out; who watched from a dozen blocks away as the twin towers crumbled; who had just barely clawed her way out of that concentration camp known as late-stage cancer, if only because she was intent on raising her babies, come hell or high water. And all of this before she even turned 40. Can you see how that someone might be way more twisted than you?

Two-legged pig learns to walk. Nobody is going to believe me since I have no photographic proof, but when I was a kid we used to have a cat who did this – his name was Dexter, and his back legs were twisted around each other in such a way that he could not walk on them. So he would hoist his back end into the air and walk on his two front legs, which were very powerful. Man, I loved that cat.
