this isnt really a news article, its a wikipedia article i found through another site. i had no idea anything like this existed, and its fucking retarded. i sleep every single night of the year with a fan going, regardless of the temperature, and have never had any kind of issue, nor have even heard of this until about 5 minutes ago.

I think you'd appreciate this books I got a while back called "Final Exit". It's pretty much a compilation of odd ways people die.

i have heard of the book, but havent read it. i am extremely interested in odd deaths.

Then this book ios most certainly for you.

one of my favorite books is "The Book of Execution" which outlines just about every single judicial execution method known to man. it doesnt get into vigilante stuff, just "court" issued. its more or less ancient stuff, but it does get into recent methods ie. gas chamber, lethal injection etc.

I'm going to have to look into that one. It' will go nicely on my bookshelf next to my copies of "The History of Torture" and "Encyclopedia of Plagues and Pestilence".

In other news, I got my raccoon jawbones in the mail yesterday and there's nothing weird about that at all.

My brother is stationed in south korea haha thank god he's leavin in like two months. Damn retards and Asia supposedly has the most intelligent people. bwahahahahahaha

Koreans are fucking retarded. If you want further proof look up figures on how something like 60% of South Koreans under the age of 30 think that Kim Jong Il and his welfare state would make a better ally than the US, aka the fucking country whose troop presence allows them to own electric fans.
