Re: Real-Life Weirdness
I guess I shouldn't be too hard on you. In 2010, two leading parliament in the "we're-not-racist-we're-just-patriots" party called a known Swedish-Iranian stand-up comedian for "baboon", a bystander for "blatte*-lover" and then armed themselves with steel pipes because they were afraid of the stand-up comedian and his posse.
*blatte is not quite as bad as the n-word but it's not a good word. Not at all.

Re: Real-Life Weirdness
Knowing 2 people who have committed murder.
Luckily it stopped there, otherwise I would have been worried. |

Re: Real-Life Weirdness
While clearing out my farm shed/workshop I found a flamethrower that had been left behind by the previous owner.

Re: Real-Life Weirdness
That's OK flamethrowers aren't considered firearms. They're considered "fuel devises" and are regulated by the USDA. Check with your local laws.

Re: Real-Life Weirdness
A friend of mine has just moved into a new house and found a spear in the garage. (Our best guess is some sort of Victorian souvenir of Empire.)

Re: Real-Life Weirdness
You could easily know many more people that committed murder but just haven't been found out yet.

Re: Real-Life Weirdness
The horrible and tragic ethnic cleansing of the Yazidis certainly has potential in games involving the occult or military adventurism. There are certainly enough wild rumours and villains to build a story around!
