Some people like to watch fat men try to ramp over a dirty river in an inflatable tube – and fail. And then there’s some people who like to watch other people being murdered. Now, YouTube is the place to go for funny cat videos, but where can a man get some good old snuff? The answer, up until quite recently,was BestGore.com. That was, until it’s owner was arrested for “corrupting morals”.
Much like Genghis Khan did in the in the early 1100’s, the Candy Crush Saga game is taking over the world, one woman at a time. The game is a variation of the “match-three” game format, similar to Bejeweled, where players attempt to make connections between three candies of the same colour. Sound boring? Some women might disagree – they’re spending £400,000 a day on this game.
Goodbye, TopTV. Fare thee well, for you are no more. After suffering months and months of severe brand damage by asking, being denied, asking again, and being denied again for permission to flight porn channels, the owners of the TopTV brand, On Digital Media have decided to pack it in.
Slavery. Legally practiced for 11,000 years, abolished by the English in 1833 – the practice seems,on the surface at least, to be a thing of the past. But now, the publishing of the Global Slavery Index has revealed the existence of up to 30 million ‘modern slaves’ in 162 countries.
Aaah, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. For 40 years it has stood on the North Coast Harbour of Cleveland, Ohio – a shining beacon of Rock and Roll, celebrating the lives and achievements of the genre’s most influential figures. Every year it is obliged to induct a few more Rock heroes, and this year is no different. Here are the nominees for 2014.
Exactly one month ago we posted a story about someone in Northampton dressing up as Pennywise from Stephen King’s It. He was spotted prowling the grungy streets of Northampton at night, holding flowers or juggling balls. He has since become a global sensation, but opinion was mixed in the town. Some residents praised the man, but some called for his arrest. And, after a month of infamy – the clown has finally been nabbed.
This is an absolute deusy!
A Texas-based Spanish teacher, Cristy Nicole Deweese, has come under fire from the school board, after students discovered she had posed nude in some full-frontal photos for playboy.
US lives to see another day. Diepsloot suspect on the run. 13-year-olds can post publicly on Facebook now. Vanity Fair is gunning for Gwyneth Paltrow. Gummy Bears guy is dead. Another Brit sex slave story.

We have been sent in this picture taken today on the streets of Woodstock, showing a child in a pram, left in the care of a man who is passed out on the pavement.
Organisations like the WHO, the British regulator MHRA and other health-oriented NGOs are all putting in as much effort as they can to spread the bad news about e-cigarettes. They’ve even gone so far as to publish false information about e-cigarettes, backed up by fake surveys. So what gives?
The low-battery icon has become a symbolic image of how smartphones have developed. Yes, our cellphones have come in leaps and bounds since the humble beginnings of the Nokia 3310. But there is one department in which we have lacked going forward – battery life. This problem, though, is soon to be one of the past – as a company called Dark Energy is making it possible to not have to plug your phone in for a whole week.
Being South Africans, we’ve become quite accustomed to those coffee table books with pictures of the big five sprawled on the cover. Heck, most of us have seen at least some of the big five in person – no biggie. But never have we got a glimpse into the nocturnal lives of these magnificent animals.
We’re sad to present proof that the kinds of people who troll the comments section of News24 exist in real life. What we have here is a highly-educated, classicly trained, contemporaneously-trained New Yorker screaming at a street busker for being a “no talent, self-consumed, mediocre piece of shit.”
Beneath every good YouTube video is a solid base of profoundly moronic comments. One almost fees obliged to get involved and set the trolls straight, but this always ultimately leads to severe keyboard bashing, and the eventual trolling of the troll himself. That was until The YouTube Comments Choir burst onto the scene
Everybody needs their own “mood-room” or “creative space” where they can go to seek inspiration, find solitude, and get down to some serious creative work. For most students, it’s a small wooden desk with strands of two-minute-noodle dangling off the edges. For office-workers, it’s a slightly bigger wooden desk, but without any noodles. But where did Einstein, Steve Jobs and Rudyard Kipling do their work? Take a look.
What do Ryan Giggs, Gareth Bale, and Harry Wilson have in common? They’re all football genuises, they’re all from Wales, and none of them have ever played for England. Although, that might change very shortly.
Joburg has already had their taste of Rihanna, and now it’s Cape Town’s turn. And if you’ve been in Cape Town long enough, you’ll realise just how much impact a huge gig such as this will have on the roads around the stadium. With that in mind, here’s a few tips on how to get in and get out as smoothly as possible.
Will Ferrell has done it again in his new mini-series, “Spoils of Babylon”. Produced by Ferrell’s own Funny or Die label, it is a truly weird adaptation of a non-existent novel by Eric Jonrosh. Ferrell does play a major part in the series, but only as the voice of Jonrosh. He appears later, however, as the Shah of Iran. Quality.
Talk about going beyond the call of duty. Corporal Josh Hargis was with his special operations unit in Panjwal, Afghanistan, when a woman detonated a suicide bomb vest nearby, triggering the explosion of 13 other bombs. Four of Hargis’ men were killed, and 12 other soldiers were badly wounded, including Hargis himself.
Why did the Bieber go to China? To make a new music video, obviously. Earlier this month, there were a few photos going around of Justin being hauled up the Great Wall of China by his bodyguards, sitting on their shoulders like some sort of Roman Emperor. Now a video of the music video has been leaked online – cue the screaming.

Cats have been ousted as the most popular animal on social media for the minute, and have been replaced by a 6-month old pig named ‘Jamon’ from São Paulo, Brazil. The pigs owner is a bit of a funny one, often dressing his pig up as a turtle. (What?)
Has it been a year already? Geez. I’m sure we all remember trying to get our Wifi connections pitch-perfect to watch the most momentous skydive in history – only to be told a few minutes later that the jump was cancelled. But eventually, the magnanimous Felix Baumgartner did take the jump
There’s no question that Eminem has had a rough ride throughout his life – always at odds with how he coped with the atrocities of his early life, and how he managed his new life in the spotlight. He took a four-year hiatus after releasing Encore in 2004, and his two most recent albums Relapse and Recovery, were a bit hit and miss, with many fans claiming to have lost the real slim shady.
Gym-going okes are always trying to push themselves, hey. And the scientists behind the supplements that keep the okes going, are also always trying to push themselves. Now, we all remember the Jack3d controversy, but this one is something else. Recent tests have shown that a popular sports supplement in the U.S. contains meth. That’s right, meth.
What the hell is an Oarfish? While the term may escape laymen, the Oarfish has been well documented by marine biologists for years.It’s not anything too strange, it’s just strange-lookin’. Although, due to their mysterious beachings after storms,and thier tendency to linger on the surface of the sea when they are dying – they are a common source of sea-serpent tales. And boy, do we have a sea-serpent tale today.
Burberry chief poached by Apple. Saudis no longer world’s biggest oil suppliers. Hillary gets a ticket in London. Google smartwatch nearly ready. Anyone can DM you on Twitter. Brazil crime lords threaten ‘World Cup of terror 2014.’ Krejcir’s mate gets death threat SMS.
Would you believe it, another caddie, Innocent Dlamini has come forward, saying Schabir Shaik assulated him. This comes at the same time as Shaik claiming the caddies have been hired by people that want him back in jail. You couldn’t script this shit.
Joost van der Westhuizen has had his fair share of controversy. Well, maybe more than his fair share. Actually, no, this oke has been embroiled in more controversy than most men – and today it got just a little worse.
