Firefighters battle the flame of the loins of an intimidatingly tall Indian woman by instructing her to assume the Salamba Sarvangasana pose, known to relieve tension.

And they say Indian women are reserved and conservative…

Indian firefighters have no idea as to how to react to strange phone calls from young ladies asking them to ‘extinguish the flame of their loins.’
[...]
… be it day or night, the content of the message remains the same: ‘Can you extinguish any sort of fire? What about the fire of passion inside of me? Come quickly, I am all on fire.’

Original story — from the one and only Pravda, sort of.

The guy in this picture probably looks pretty cool to perhaps 5% of the world.

He probably knows, and doesn’t care, that he looks like a cruel and pointless killer to perhaps another 5%.

But I wonder if he’s aware that, to everybody else, he just looks enormously silly.

I direct your attention to Strandbeest. Most specifically, to the animaris rhinoceros transport video, which would be worth watching even if only to hear the way this (maniac?) inventor speaks the name of the monster he created.

There are several other videos of his various creations, all in the same vein: huge marauding webs of yellow plastic tubes, walking around on beaches.

They move by themselves, powered by wind, after he sets them off. Personally, I think he’s plotting a hurricane-powered hostile takeover of Florida in time for the presidential elections.

I don’t know whether to be impressed or frightened by this man.
