People think of the United States as an advanced Western country, so they go :eyepop: when it turns out quite a few Americans believe Dungeons & Dragons is satanic or that God created the Earth 6,000 years ago. It's massive culture shock for a non-American Westerner.

Enough of this derail, however.

There's an apartheid-era assassin on trial at the moment with the unfortunate surname of De Kock. I can't tell if the media is having a field day with the headlines or if it's honest-to-goodness obliviousness - also, I am 12. I doesn't help that one of South Africa's cricket players shares the surname. See if you can guess who's being referenced in these headlines.

De Kock emerges from 'dark spaces'

Calls for probe into De Kock's whereabouts

Where in the world is De Kock - reports

De Kock is fine - lawyer

Amla: De Kock will come good

De Kock treated like a king in prison - inmates

Ministry stays mum on De Kock

And finally:

De Kock a valuable SA asset

It's presumably a common surname in South Africa, so I'm not sure most of them did it on purpose.

I don't think that BBC wrote the headline; if so, it would be something like "Texas 'university' students in 'dildo' protest over 'gun' law". Never before has a news organization been so in love with quotation marks.

And there would have been a pun in there.

Yeah this one was really annoying cause most of the original news articles make her out to be some sort of evil child hating witch who just wants money when in reality she's on good terms with the kid and her family still and it was a legal necessity for her to name him in order to try to cover her bills. And yet she still didn't get it and now she's known nationwide as a bitch because the media decided it was an easy story to distort for clicks.

The ridiculous part is that anyone in a developed country would have to sue their own nephew over medical bills, regardless of the logic behind it. I thought you guys now had Obamacare or whatever.

Here's a strange editorial I just found, about parrots and from an 1877 issue of the New York Times. This guy is really mad about parrots. And parrot schools. And barbers. And Mr. W. B. Cooper.

That's amazing, reads like an SA frontpage article. Some people back then had a good sense of humor.

I'd believe those fucken polls. More than a few people I've talked to are completely convinced ghosts are real.

The frustrating thing is their "evidence" is so flimsy it's laughable. It's not like they're full on "I talked to a ghost and it told me about things from my future, and they came true!" It's always "I was half asleep in bed and I think it was sort of dark in the corner of my room, therefore ghosts are 100% real." Like, it's dumb enough you're even putting stock in the concept of ghosts, but even then your evidence is a loving shadow? At night? WHILE YOU WERE HALF ASLEEP?!?

Man, I was at 7-11, and this guy coughed weird and it sort of sounded like a growl, therefore he must've actually been Bigfoot. Yep, samskwatches are real now guys. They really like Big Bite Hotdogs and grape Slurpees.

Kids have overactive imaginations, some people never grow out of it. You almost want to be jealous of them.
