Woman refuses to stop singing and gets booted from flight

You’ve probably seen or read about nightmare flights where passengers are stuck in a plane for hours stranded on the runway. Well, if you ever find yourself in that situation, here’s a sure-fire way to get out of it.

A woman was escorted off an American Airlines flight traveling from Los Angeles to New York City for refusing to stop singing Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You.” The pilot made the emergency stop in Kansas City so the police could get rid of the tone deaf singer. It probably could have been worse. She could have been singing Celine Dion’s “My Heart Will Go On.”

A passenger on the flight secretly caught the whole thing on video,

This kitten losing his cool over some lizards is the most appalling-slash-precious video you will see today.

We don’t blame the little furball. That would be like you and I being confronted with a couple of fast-moving dinosaurs.

Do you know how many 168 MILLION is?

I mean I know you know the number, but do really understand it?

If taking one step covers say, three feet of ground, 168 million steps would be enough to walk all the way to the moon and back agai- wait, scratch that, I just did the math. It’d be enough to walk like- halfway to the mo- OH FORGET IT. What I’m saying is, holy crap this Mickey Mouse video by They Might Be Giants has been watched a lot of times.

If all your friends jumped off a bridge while watching this video would you watch it too?

DO IT.

Cmon, I’m just basically telling you that you have to watch this because a whole mob of people already watched it, and let’s be honest, when have mobs ever been wrong?

Just watch it, you know you want to.

Man attempting to microwave toilet paper causes fire in Arizona

May 13, 2013 9:29 AM | permalink

Can you microwave a wet roll of toilet paper? It’s the one question no one has been asking themselves for years.

Toilet paper is so cheap and plentiful you hardly give it a second thought, except for when you really need it. Which is probably why a man Tucson, AZ tried to save a wet roll of toilet paper by sticking it in the microwave. What came next was one embarrassing afternoon plus hundreds of dollars worth of smoke damage.

PHOTOS: Biggest bachelor party disasters

May 10, 2013 5:00 PM | permalink

Posted by Ritch

I’m a happily married man whose wife reads this blog, and I’m not ashamed to tell you that my bachelor party was a pretty wild affair!

Several of my close male friends and I gathered to play a round of golf and afterwards, we had some bracingly cold diet root beers while telling ribald jokes at my expense! We thought about getting steaks but passed because that’s a LOT of red meat. I will tell you, if that night was a movie, some of the salty language and situations we got ourselves into very well might have earned us a HARD PG-13 rating!

That being said, I wouldn’t even call it a bachelor party. I mean, where’s the fun to be had without our wives and girlfriends along anyway? And I didn’t want a lot of excessive drinking, or strippers. That stuff is gross, demeaning and a waste of money. Plus, if you drink a lot, I’m told you could wake up up with one WHOPPER of a headache! If that’s what being a party animal is all about this is one chicken who prefers his coop! Luckily, we were all in bed by midnight, (11 Central!) and a swell time was had by all.

I can tell you what didn’t happen…

Mom turns to WebMD after teenage son is shot

May 10, 2013 9:17 AM | permalink

The mother of a Houston teen might not be getting a “World’s Best Mom” mug this Sunday after she allegedly went to ol’ Dr. Internet instead of calling 911 after her 14-year-old son was shot by a family friend.

Cops say that Pete Jesse Rodriguez was allegedly chasing the 14-year-old with his gun and eventually shot him in the leg. It sounds like a pretty open and shut case for investigators because the house had a security camera that recorded the whole incident.

Yes, that house had a security camera. The home was run down with dogs running loose behind a rickety fence. It looked less like a house and more like a redneck meth lab. What were they afraid was going to be stolen, their jugs of moonshine? Anyway…
