Confession time. I've seen this picture floating around for a really, really long time and I just now noticed it's an eggplant. I thought it was just some bottle that got caught in a vice or whatever and twisted off, like one of those cheap twistoff drinks for kids.

From Hell, just outside Trondheim, Norway. They have a blues festival called Blues In Hell. And yes, they have had black metal shows there, although sadly no festivals.



Do they also have flying pigs there? Looks like just the place.

It's a double pun. "Smäll" in Swedish (pronounced "smell") means bang, or collision.

It looks to be a snippet from Google Maps, street level, where the focus is really tight.

You can see the car in the reflection of the storefront.

On a long enough time line, eventually someone is going to spot their wife/husband/child's car in front of a strip club/liquor store/dildo factory. Google is just trying to cover their rear end in advance.

The really funny thing is that they're covering up a thing which is legally mandated to be visible. In driving about on the public roads, you've automatically consented to people seeing and reading your number plates. You're not allowed to hide them, and get in big trouble if you do. That the algorithm is berserk and decides that things like signs, pine trees, and other such sundries are number plates, and blurs them, just makes it funnier.

The first thing I noticed (after the name on the sign) was the ©2012 Google watermark. Didn't notice the car reflection until after you pointed it out, and then saw the blur.

The gas station I worked at sold candles from this company and we got these in off the truck once. Corporate actually came to get them personally because they weren't appropriate for the store.

Note: This gas station called themselves a family company just because they didn't sell rolling papers.

I live in Michigan, in the US, and a half hour North of me is another town named Hell. It's a tiny rear end town with like, less than 300 residents, but they really play up the name game. They have a wedding chapel so you can be a match made in Hell, for example, and they regularly hold a marathon there where you can run through Hell. They had a huge party on June 6th, 2006.

There's a road leading into Hell, Michigan called Darwin.

When it was really cold and snowy this previous winter I saw them do a news report about the cold from Hell just so they can go "Hurr, Hell has frozen over! :haw:"

Old, but oh my loving god the reviews on this are hilarious.

Received this knife as a gift for my 18th birthday. Wish I'd have known what it was because as soon as I touched it, I grew a mustache and became a Navy Seal. Mom fainted and my dad laughed and handed me a beer. I was born a girl.

As soon as I found out how much my husband spent on this, I left him. Bad move. It represented him at the divorce hearing. I now pay $10,000 a month in alimony.

forgot the knife in the front pocket of my Swiss Army shorts and when my wife washed them it completely disassembled our washing machine

As horrifying as that is they had a couple of really good follow-up ones (despite appearances there is no gore on :nms: elements in this unless you have vertigo)

Like the previous video, a series of negligent actions leads towards a disaster but the person gets a last-minute save because a single safety measure was properly taken. There's a similar one I can't find with someone who gets his shirt pinned to a saw feed conveyor and laments about, among other things, how the emergency cutoff has been in need of repairs for weeks. Then someone hits the emergency cutoff, stopping it at the last second, saying they fixed it that morning.
