A man in Brooklyn, NY was put into a mental institution after he broke open walls in multiple apartments looking for a cat. Doctors were not buying that he was literally trying to save a cat that went exploring in the walls.
talula does the hula
A young girl was so embarassed by her name that she told her friends to call her “K”. The name? “Talula Does the Hula.” She was made a ward of the court so she could have her name changed.
Other insane names listed on FoxNews.com that were prevented from being legal: Fish and Chips, Yeah Detroit, Keenan Got Lucy and Sex Fruit. Somehow these two names made it through: Number 16 Bus Shelter and Violence.
Suddenly I realize how lucky I am that I’m not named after a bus stop.
banksy finally unmasked?
Say it isn’t so! I’m rather fond of the statement of Banksy’s anonymity, believing that the art means more than the fame. There have been false positives before, I hope this is one as well.
nothing below the panty line, that’s a foul
In Pennsylvania a woman was getting dressed after surgery for a herniated discand found a temporary rose tattoo south of her panty line. Apparently this doc is a pretty jovial fellow and he often puts fake tattoos on anesthetized patients to cheer them up after surgery. You have to wonder why the surgeon decided that a rose tattoo in the bikini area of an unconscious patient was appropriate. Sounds like a creep to me.
put a cork in it, or else
A German woman became so upset that a visiting friend talked to her for 30 hours straight that she called the police. She initially called an ambulance, which would not take her friend. The cops gave her friend a ride home but she was not charged with anything.

I could offend a great number of people with this one.
unidentified stationary object
In South Wales a man called the emergency line to report an unidentified stationary object in the sky. The verdict? It was the moon. For real.
i call this impatient (but fun!)
A man flying first class into Guyana from New York was so enraged seeing business class get off the plane before he did that he pulled open an emergency exit and slid down the slide. Yeah, he totally got arrested.
promoting teen sex
Sometimes I am outrageously surprised by the conclusions people draw from the things they see. Case in point: A woman in Portsmouth decided that a Hallmark card referring to wine as “liquid clothes remover” was promoting teenage sex. I don’t know where the teenage part comes in because the front of the card is two people toasting wine glasses. For as long as I can remember all photos of semi full wine glasses has represented to me is middle aged folks swilling on pretension. It’s not like it was the cast of The Hills drinking Grey Goose martinis or the cast of Gossip Girl downing mojitos. See for yourself.
