    This is the story of a one-legged Japanese man committing suicide. I heard once (and I recognize that it could be made-up) that in Japan, it would be totally unheard of to commit suicide with shoes on.

  2. Patrick Lee says:

    Run for your lives! There’s a naked man on the loose beating people over the head with his other shoe…

  3. Matt says:

    WARNING: Removing shoe from bag may cause immediate vaporization and even death.

  4. Patrick Lee says:

    That’s a bag? I thought it was a pair of shorts. That’ll teach me to always click through to the larger photo…

    Holzschlag–

    I obviously have had way too much time on my hands this evening, as you must have had when taking that photograph.

  6. This is the story of a He-Cinderella. He was almost late for his curfew. So, when he was once in a hurry to go home from night out he left his shoes along the road and didn’t have much time to pick it up.

  7. Jonesy says:

    Brian looked down at the detritus littering the alleyway and thought to himself: “If only Doc Brown had gotten here on time. Perhaps, just perhaps he would’ve had enough garbage for his Flux Capacitor and made it far enough back in the future to set things right.” Perhaps. But he didn’t. And things remain the same.

  8. Ross’ eyesight has once again let him down, no wonder the people in the shop were giving me funny looks when I went in to buy a loaf of bread

  9. Lee says:

    “Cinderella 2007″ where ‘rella is now a modern-day business-suited-and-track-shoe-wearin’ dame. This is the scene where she runs from the castle as the clock strikes midnight, back to her Beemer before it turns back into a Yugo.

  10. Umair R. says:

    Captain Jack Sparrow, the Flying Dutchman is here. Be careful!!!

  11. Andrew says:

    Did you hear the story about the man who put Odor Eaters in his shoes, took three steps, and disappeared?

  12. Andrew says:

    There was an old man who lived in a shoe,
    Who met with a bag lady, you know, like you do,
    He took her to dinner, just broth without bread,
    She whipped him soundly (he like that sort of thing),
    before going off to bed.

  13. Peter says:

    After all the flooding subsided a strange story emerged…
    (its been a wet summer here in the UK!)

    …Police & the government were mystified as the the nature of the small red object found nearby, so just in case blamed O bin Q and his gang of Laden and put it down as another success in the fight against terrorism.

    Meanwhile, Trampy the Tramp and his band of vagrants sniggered in satisfaction at the waste of tax payers money, shook the hand of one Reginald Perrin and began planning where next they could strike before realising that they couldn’t because they dont have a job.

    Oh Man!, its been a long day!!!!!

  14. Umair R. says:

    This Is Intel Reporting…
    Captain Jack Sparrow, did I mention the Flying Dutchman’s wife is here. And also the kraken is back in the blue hemisphere.
    This time Flying Dutchman came in a fancy way with his wife, but kraken loves her, so he is in the way. Now you Captain, you have to reunite him and his wife, and also kill the kraken. Call Will and Elizabeth agian for help. So good luck!

  15. helaene says:

    matt definitely wins. ;)

  16. Umair R. says:

    Matt is definitely right, he should win!

  17. Joe says:

    The aliens forgot Michael’s shoe and accidentally dropped their probing device (not the red one).

  18. Klaus says:

    Matt is the king, absolutly.

  19. GarethFW says:

    The race was lost. Without the wind behind him, the bag simply couldn’t keep up.

  20. tsfreaks says:

    Sure wish you had edit or preview.

    Supposed to be an img tag and not an unclosed anchor tag. Hopefully you can fix it without too much trouble. Thanks and Sorry.

    SEATTLE, WA – A 41 year old man was arrested and taken to King County Jail for placing what police believe to be dog feces on Seattle’s sidewalks. Eye witnesses said “The man resisted arrest and was forced to the ground by three police officers”.

    The man was apparently trying to make a statement by placing small flags in the dog feces with an image resembling the President of the United States. The Seattle Police refused to comment on where the man got the bag full of feces. They’re not even sure if it is dog feces. It’s worth noting; Leaving dog poop is not a crime in most states.

    Ack. I’m making a mess of this page. The images aren’t showing up and my first post which was gone all day is now showing up again.

    I’m done screwing with it. I’d like to fix it so let me know what I can/should do.

    The story is of a shoe & a bag where the shoe asks the bag “what the diffrence between us?” the bag answers we are both same but the shoe insists that i am better then you i help humans walk, and we are not same, the bag responds “we are the same as long as we are lying here together on a footpath”
