Pick of the Week last month or so

“I begged him to let me go through, he laughed at me and said NO again… I kept telling him and showing him again that the dogs were fully vaccinated and were 100 per cent vaccinated in order to enter the UK.. AND THEN, I screamed!!!”

“I am the name behind many of the most famous selfies you’ve seen, the great Ellen photograph of the Oscars, many of Kim Kardashian’s, if you look closely you can see me in the background directing it as if it were an orchestra.”

“According to search warrant affidavits obtained this week by NBC News that were recently unsealed in U.S. District Court in Chicago, the FBI’s search for the culprit led them to a man named Emilio Herrera, 30, last October. Investigators found that a single computer, owned by Herrera, linked to two email addresses accessed compromised accounts. The affidavit, however, did not list Herrera as a suspect.”

“Pornhub.com is hoping to thrust itself into the stratosphere by crowdfunding a porno that will be shot 68 miles above the Earth’s surface on a shuttle service like Virgin Galactic. … Eva Lovia and Johnny Sins are the stars enlisted to make one small boink for porn and one giant money shot for mankind. Lovia, 26, is particularly excited about the opportunity. ‘The bragging rights alone are worth it,’ she told The Huffington Post. ‘We don’t know if any astronauts have had sex in space, so we’d be the first to publicly admit it.’”

“Since the 2011 Navy Seal raid in which the al-Qaida chief was killed, there have been numerous unconfirmed reports that the documents included ‘a considerable quantity of pornographic videos’. … But while the US declassified a substantial number of documents and released detailed lists of Bin Laden’s reading preferences, details the pornography kept by the man who was the world’s most-hunted terrorist will remain hidden.”

“A Reuters report from 2011 described his collection as ‘fairly extensive’, and including recent-vintage video smut [but the office of the director of national intelligence] declined to specify the sort of porn Bin Laden preferred. While al-Qaida and other global jihadists project an image of religious asceticism, jihadist militants—comprising as they do men interacting under conditions of stress—often have pornographic material close to hand. According to Louise Shelley, a professor at George Mason University, porn smuggling routes operate in territory controlled by the Islamic State.”

“The ‘aroused’ and ‘overexcited’ man was spotted at the start of the World Naked Bike Ride (WNBR) event in Canterbury, Kent, on Sunday. He was ordered by stewards to put his jeans on before being spoken to by police, and was not allowed to take part in the event—aimed at raising awareness of the dangers faced by cyclists on the road.”

“The growing trend was widely believed to be in aid of raising money or awareness for a breast cancer charity, however it has transpired that it isn’t affiliated with any official organisation, and is in fact the work of talent scout for the adult entertainment industry, Danny Frost.”

“He posted a message on the official #HoldACokeWithYourBoobsChallenge Facebook page saying: ‘We started the challenge as a joke. We never thought it would take off, but it did. People started posting that it was for a breast cancer awareness charity, and we thought why not do something good with this, so we went with it.’”

“If this gets a few of those types of girls to do their check-ups and prevents them from losing their breast or dying from breast cancer by doing something fun and goofy, does it not make it worth it?”

“The Breast Cancer Research Foundation told Esquire that the organisation does not support the campaign or plan on accepting any donations from it.”

“The veteran actor, immortalised in films from Dracula to The Wicker Man, and via James Bond villainy to the Lord of the Rings trilogy, died at 8.30am on Sunday morning at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London.”
