The Vans Warped Tour was cancelled yesterday, after a show in London saw one of the artists leap into the crowd from 12 metres. A rapper from the US, George Watsky, thought it would be cool to leap off the lighting rig and into the waiting crowd below. It wasn’t.
Were we supposed to be taking Scientologists seriously? Hah. If you, like us, had thought that it was just a fad, then you might have to re-examine your prejudices. These guys are not kidding around.
Think about what you have to do today. Now, don’t do it. “How?” we hear you ask. It’s easy – just follow the instructions on this epic infographic. In fact, you might as well kick the procrastination off by reading the infographic.
The English just love doing this sort of thing. Every year around Cristmas, they gather around and try to get a certain song up to number 1 in the charts just in time for Christmas. Why? Well, because they’re bored and lonely and live on a cold, rainy Island where it gets dark at 3pm.
Here’s yet another reason not to become a politician. While some people use Bitcoins to buy things like socks and sushi online, Kawabatake Sanjuro invented a website called the Assissination Market, where you place a bid to have a government official killed in exchanged for Bitcoins.

We all feel a little bit uneasy about our private emails being stashed and archived in someones inbox forever. Surely when we invented digital mail, we could have thought ahead and prevented it? Anyway, we didn’t – but now someone has created a service that will help with this.
South Africa’s roads are treacherous, we all know that. From the potholed one-lane nightmare-roads in the Eastern Cape, to the isolated N2 of the Karoo, staying alive on the road is never more important than it is within our very own borders.
We’ve all had those flying dreams. You know, the ones where you can fly around endlessly – until you touch the ground and then can’t fly anymore. If you knew you were dreaming, that is, if you were “lucid dreaming”, you would be able to pick yourself up and fly again.
It’s tough being an archaeologist. You spend months out in the field trying to pick away the sands of time, often finding nothing.

In America these days, if you’re not knocking out random people on the sidewalk, you’re not cool. Aptly named ‘knockout’, the aim of the game is to identify a target – and then knock him or her out in a single punch. Which is bad enough as it is, but now several teens in New Jersey face jail-time after reportedly beating a homeless man to death.

You can’t host a bake sale in Dubai- you wont make any sales. Heck, even a motor show wont do – that stuff is child’s play. If you really want to get Dubai’s elite frothing at the mouth and reaching for their wallets – you better host an airshow.
In a civilised society, there are not many excuses people have to punch one another in the face. But I can think of a few.
