You heard it here first

Some more lovely world news items from Ananova:

  • A Romanian man, whom doctors nicknamed “The Ostrich Man” swallowed five metal tablespoons in an apparent suicide attempt. He was also prepared to down two more, and some bottle caps.
  • Republican Senate nominee from Illinois Jack Ryan is in hot water over his ex-wife’s allegations that he forced her to go to sex clubs with him.
  • Employees at a morgue in India have been busted for allowing local traders to store fish (meant for consumption) in among their dead bodies.
  • A German doctor has invented titanium breast implants.
  • A restaurant in the Ukraine has started serving chocolate-covered pork fat as a delicacy.
  • This one I’m just gonna paste in the beginning of it:
      A slaughterhouse in China is giving pigs showers, saunas and massages before chopping them up.

      Light music is played as the pigs are pampered before being electrocuted.

    Shit, that’s so goddamned nice of them! What a bunch of fucking sweethearts! Presumably, these pigs are then cut up, their fat covered in chocolate, and shipped off to the Ukraine.
