Biloxi, Mississippi – A man was arrested today in Biloxi, Mississippi on the charge that he did willfully, and with intended malice, THINK FOR HIMSELF, an act that led him to question authority and the truth of the Bible. This malicious activity had been going on for some months already before it was discovered, and he might have gotten away for it if he had not asked his wife if she would consent to anal sex. She rightly reported him to the police straightaway. A secondary charge of “attempted buttsecks” (sic) was added to his list of charges. He has been preemptively charged without trial and will be executed by means of the Cruciatus Curse, followed by the Avada Kedavra.
Chicago, IL – An illegal drug smuggling ring was busted today as the result of a new experiment in smuggling. It seems that Columbian cocaine was being snuck into a secret facility in Canada, where it was being pressed into what appeared to be mozzarella cheese. The smugglers were busted when a new employee, unaware of the plot, opened one of the drug packages and used it to make pizzas. Everyone who ate at Papa Greasy's Pizza Shack in the last week will probably not be passing any drug tests anytime soon, and will no doubt be returning for a pizza “fix.” Temporary drug rehab clinics have already been set up in the area.
Portland, OR – After reporting a sighting of the famed Flying Spaghetti Monster, devout Pastafarian Lars A. Merci started throwing whole jalapeños at passers-by, screaming “The end is near! His Noodly Appendages will eat us all and wash us down with a tall glass of ice cold milk! Repent! Repent!” Mr. Merci was arrested for breaching the peace and for assault with peppers.
Halifax, Canada – George Bernard Squaw, CEO of the tiny online merchant “E-Z De-Pimplers,” which sells only pimple-popping mechanisms, was convicted yesterday for embezzling $4.32 Canadian over the course of two years. Mr. Squaw, who acted as his own lawyer, was also charged with contempt of court for trying to argue his case using only charades.
Osceola, IA – A woman was arrested earlier in the week on charges of attempted murder on karaoke night at the local casino when she started to sing “Bear Necessities” so badly that several people in the audience had to be taken to the hospital with internal hemorrhaging. A judge downgraded the charges to “reckless endangerment” and sentenced her to take a threemonth vow of silence. She is also banned from singing ever again.
