More toilets please! *clap* *clap*

There are lots of crazy news to read these days. But when it comes to absurd
things (things, normal people won’t do, usually!) then it makes me think what
could have moved person XY to do such a silly thing. In this news the
person has died shitting between platform and train and fell into the track.

Even escalators are evil!

machines can be nasty during operation. in this case, an escalator in the New

How patient are Apple Store workers?

Today I found this funny video on youTube where a guy is testing the Apple
Store workers’ patience to the maximum. The 3 Minutes video show 4 different
