Marjoe Gortner - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quote:

When Gortner was three, his father Vernon Gortner, a third generation minister, noticed his son's talent for mimicry and overall fearlessness of strangers and public settings. His parents claimed he had received a vision from God during a bath but was later confirmed by Marjoe that this was a lie his parents forced him to repeat. They enforced this by moc-drowning him since they would not beat him due to his public appearances and scars being left over.

Dyatlov Pass incident - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Quote:

Investigators at the time determined that the hikers tore open their tent from within, departing barefoot in heavy snow. Though the corpses showed no signs of struggle, two victims had fractured skulls, two had broken ribs, and one was missing her tongue.[1] According to sources, four of the victims' clothing contained high levels of radiation.

Great article. It was actually one of the inspirations for this thread (and it's the third post), but it certainly deserves another mention.

THEINCREDIBLEdork · 06-27-2010, 04:13 PM

I disagree. The article has already been posted. Only severe punishment can deter this kind of behavior. I've already neg repped him and reported him to the admins, but I think a temp ban is in order.

I'm a newbie here and I don't honestly have time to search every thread I wish to post in. I'll do my best tho.

edit: I should point out that 80% of the content in the "/fill in the blank/ of the day" is simply reposted from either Reddit, Digg, or StumbleUpon, so don't flatter yourself with a false sense of originality.

Neg rep is appropriate.

Baller. That's all there is to it. Dude lived an incredibly interesting life. I always thought the term "Casanova" was always based off of a play or something.

TIL that there are "body farms" where thousands of dead bodies are placed in different situations around a ranch in order to study their decomposition.

Man, that's pretty depressing. I can't help but wonder how long it would have taken the Native Americans and similar cultures that were invaded to develop the kind of technological innovations that the Europeans ~~brought~~ forced upon the rest of the world.

I read something about this a while ago. Thought it was hilarious how Stephanie Myers probably just pulled some numbers out of a fucking hat and usurped people who had thought a lot harder about, and done more with their fictional characters than she had. What a bitch.

I noticed that between 2007 and 2008, bruce wayne lost a pretty good portion of his wealth. You think he was invested in Bear Sterns, or was this due to ra'as al ghul's ninjas buring wayne manor down?

	The basis of our governments being the opinion of the people, the very first object should be to keep that right; and were it left to me to decide whether we should have a government without newspapers, or newspapers without a government, I should not hesitate a moment to prefer the latter. But I should mean that every man should receive those papers and be capable of reading them.
