What I found amusing about this one is that the guys mom didn't seem too upset about it either.

Well, we do like our porn lol

I heard this one on the news, I'm sure this will lead to talking dumpsters that alert "residents" of a truck picking up garbage lol.

"At first glance, it looks like any other neighborhood, with kids riding their bikes, and a church on the corner."

"No one knows who's passing them out, but many suspect the two strip clubs across the street."

Yeah, just like any other neighborhood... With two strip clubs! :lol:

I prefer florida man when it comes to the weird stuff that happens somewhere. There is just so much of it coming out of florida.

Just the titles of all the weird stuff will get you to see it.
