Asim April 16, 2012

I am sure you are familiar with the concept of taxes; this is how countries usually run. I am also certain that you are aware of the everyday taxes that we as a society are supposed to pay. Now I can assure you that you will either laugh it out or be really, REALLY surprised when you read what sort of taxes are imposed in certain places. I follow the law, I pay the taxes, but this is actually pushing it. I am sure you probably have no idea what I am talking about, so why not just go through the list and you will probably thank God you live in areas where these don’t apply and for once feel happy about the taxes that you actually have to pay; I know I did.

Let’s face it folks, each and every single one of us is scared of accidents. I, for one, haven’t experienced any major accident my entire life and I thank God for that. You might not be aware but the world experiences different accidents every single day and I am not talking about your everyday road accidents. I am talking about something on a much bigger scale, something that gives the word ‘weird’ a new definition. This article talks about the weirdest and the most bizarre accidents from around the world over the course of history. You do not expect these sort of things to happen every day or even once in a blue moon and that makes this article a very interesting one indeed.

Ten Sex Demons That You Never Knew Existed

Asim April 14, 2012

You have seen some movies where the humans come into some sort of sexual contact with supernatural beings. Well, it’s in the movies for some reasons. Throughout the time there have been several myths regarding these particular concepts and there have been many stories as well. People have talked about certain incidents that led us to believe in their possible existence. Over time, these supernatural beings became known as ‘sex demons’. While now is a different story, during ancient times being unexpectedly pregnant or getting an abortion resulted in anger from the people whom one was close to. One theory is that in order to cover for those incidents people made up these sex demons. Ten of the most popular ones are listed below in this article.

Ten Weird Toys for Kids

Do you remember those simple times when the smallest of toys brightened up every day of your life, like it’s your birthday? Those were the days weren’t they? Today of course toys are not good enough for children and they require nothing less than an iPhone or some high-tech gadget to give the faintest of smiles. But let’s not get into that shall we? This particular article talks about ten most weird and inappropriate toys were your children to have. If you buy them these toys, at least I will judge you. I wonder why they went under production anyway. Most of the toys discussed are either scary or something the children can’t and shouldn’t appreciate. Nonetheless the list is quite interesting so read through and enjoy.

10 Most Bizarre-Looking Hat Designs

I am sure that you have all seen women wearing all kinds of hats and those who haven’t can take a glance at the movie called “Sex and the City” and can treat their eyes with hats of all shapes and sizes worn by none other than our very own Sarah Jessica Parker who plays the role of Carrie Bradshaw in the movie. Hats make a very classy style statement and I am sure we all remember Princess Diana used to wear one very often, and if there ever was an elegant lady, she was it. On the other hand though, there are some people or rather designers who take pride in designing hats that really (and I mean really) make a statement. And they do not even care whether the statement is a fashion statement or a fashion disaster. I have searched and searched to come with some of the weirdest design of hats that women from all over the world choose to wear, not only to support the designer, No! They wear it as an actual accessory and feel quite proud of themselves. Feast your eyes as you read on to find just how weird people can be!

Ten Weird Side Effects to Common Medicine

Did you ever happen to read the side effects of the most common household medicine? There’s a whole list on the literature that’s provided with the medicine. If you happen to read it I can honestly say that you might even stop eating that particular medicine. But listing those side effects haven’t got anything to do with them actually happening really, they are only listed for legal purposes, you know, just in case they actually do happen. I once read the side effects to a common headache tablet. I will not get into a lot of details here but one of the side effects to eating that tablet was ‘headache’. Ironic isn’t it? This article describes the ten really weird side effects that you are probably seeing for the first time.

God, dying would have been so much better if we could have chosen the exact way we were to die but since that cannot happen let’s get back to the topic.

Whipping - Most Brutal Torture Practices Still Used

Earlier we did a post regarding the most brutal tortures of all time that were used by the ancient civilization. You will not believe how lucky we to have been born in this era. But even still there are punishments that have made it through those ancient times and are still practiced in a lot of countries. I wonder why, in those countries, people would commit crimes or why such methods of capital punishment still exist. Even though the following methods are not as brutal as the ones discussed in the earlier post, these will still send shivers down your spine and you will thank God a million times to be seeing them on your computer screens instead of actually experiencing them.
