Oh my goodness. A friend gave me a link to this article. and it just gets better and better as it goes on.

first: the title. obviously a gem: Mysterious dwarfish alien brutally murdered in Russia's remote village.
[one question: is there a specific remote village that this is obviously referring to?? this is THE remote village of russia. sweet.]

next, a picture of alioshenka:


the article is all about the murder of this alien. this story has it all: murder, conspiracy, aliens, bad smells... fantastic!

one great quote about alioshenka and his smell:
"the smell was pretty agreeable yet somewhat nauseous at the same time."

I am not really sure what that means.

Anyway, i would summarize for you all, but it is better to just go the the article... fantastic!

enjoy!

This may possibly be the worst thing ever

For the love of God, what are these girls wearing? Gofugyourself often has some really special clothes, but I honestly think this takes the cake.

a whole website dedicated to useless animals.

What's better? They link to even more useless websites. Like pandafix, a site all about pandas.
