This website is awesome in a disturbing sort of way. Full of details about all types of celebrity death. I think I posted it on the Basement of Doom awhile back, so I guess nobody saw it.

EDIT: Go to the directory to look at the interesting stuff, I dunno what all that crap on the front page is.

The South Korean government plans to buy the first off the line and place them on the border between S Korea and N Korea in order to ease the relations between the two countries.  This should end well.

Using gasoline to re-ignite your wood stove is always ill-advised, all the more so if you're storing oxygen cylinders in the house.

They don't, so they're clearly not interested in what fark has to offer, so what's the point of posting it in this forum?

It's not that I care what you post here, but I find it quite odd and can't really wrap my brain around it.

I like the stuff in this forum but I have no idea what Fark is. Thank you Hydrobond for this thread.

What the hell is wrong with England???
Why does it take a petition from the community to force a blind man to stop driving?
And why do they spell 'curb' as 'kerb'?
