I Don’t Know What’s Worse

That this crazy old guy went around trying to pass himself off as a doctor, or that women actually fell for it.

MIAMI (Reuters) – A 76-year-old man claiming to be a doctor went door-to-door in a Florida neighborhood offering free breast exams, and was charged with sexually assaulting two women who accepted the offer, police said on Thursday.

One woman became suspicious after the man asked her to remove all her clothes and began conducting a purported genital exam without donning rubber gloves, investigators said.

Why the guy is a sick idiot, the women were equally as stupid for falling for it.

Pawning Your Goods To Pay For Gas

This is what we’ve come to: pawning off all the things we own just so we can fill up our car. Does anybody else see a problem with this?

There Are Better Ways To Kill Yourself

Nail guns are not one of them as apparently even when you shoot yourself with twelve nails, you still might live (linking to a KTVZ copy of the story, as the KGW version requires you to register and makes its a pain to use the BugMeNot extension in Firefox).

$250,000 for a 600 sq. ft. shack

Sadly, somebody will end up buying it. This home is for sale by owner on the corner of 6th and Olney in Bend:

What you can’t see very well in the picture is that the asking price is $250,000. The home, at the most, is 600 square-feet, on a stupidly busy road, and is probably the cheapest thing for sale in Bend’s city limits. It will undoubtedly be bulldozed and a three story townhome put in its place. I think this guy needs a t-shirt.

Soda Pop Jet Pack

Nothing like the Japanese to do something this crazy and stupid so the rest of the world can laugh. Didn’t they try this on Mythbusters? I only caught about two minutes of that episode. Anyway, link via b3ta
