Bestiality Brothels


There are bestiality brothels in Germany, and PETA goes crazy over what goes on here in the USA.

Spot The Pig


Vermont State Police were not amused by the addition of a pig to the state seal decals made by prisoners for the sides of cruisers. The image really is spot on though.

Horrible Norman Lear Show



This little clip proves that even geniuses can fail. The show lasted two whole episodes.

Did anyone catch this when it first aired?

Info here.

Pit Bull Treadmill

If your pit bulls aren't mean enough, some time on this should change that.

Bacon Triglyph

Brandon Shimoda was into bacon before it had become the all-pervasive pop-culture meme that it is today. In fact, he might be the guy who started the meme. Back in 2002 and 2003 he hosted the "Bacon Show" -- an art show devoted to bacon. He ran it out of his Albany apartment, greeting visitors dressed in a pink pig costume. The crowning glory of the show was his "Bacon Triglyph" -- three pieces of bacon encased in polyester resin, preserving them for all eternity.

Cattle Rustlers


I wonder if Florida still has a law on the books specifying hanging for cattle rustling.

Canadian Super Shape

Either this is how men sit in Canada, or the pants are so slippery that he's sliding off the seat.

The Art of John Wayne Gacy

WU readers are surely familiar with John Wayne Gacy, if only because his middle name is Wayne. Convicted of at least 33 murders. He liked to dress as Pogo the Clown at charity events. Executed in 1994. And (what I didn't know) is that he took up art while in prison. He liked to paint Disney characters, clowns, and skulls.

According to Wikipedia: "Exhibitions of Gacy's artwork have been held since the 1980s and continue to be held. Gacy dismissed criticism that he was permitted to keep money from the sale of his paintings, claiming his artwork was intended 'to bring joy into people's lives'."
