I love it when police brag about catching someone with a bag of the worst weed you have ever seen and a blunderbuss.
An OPP post on Facebook showing two small guns, a bag of weed that was probably left on the floor of a forest for at least a year, and what appear to be cheques (wtf?!) and stolen credit cards.

Like, do the writers even listen to Metallica?
[Verse 1] Messenger of fear in sight Dark deception kills the light Hybrid children watch the sea Pray for Father, roaming free [Chorus] Fearless wretch, insanity He watches, lurking beneath the sea Great Old One, forbidden site He searches, hunter of the shadows is rising Immortal In madness, you dwell [Verse 2] Crawling chaos, underground Cult has summoned twisted sound Out from ruins once possessed Fallen city, living death

Or Sudan Guys:
In an interview with The Guardian, the silver fox revealed that the majority of the profits from his Nespresso commercials (like this meet-cute offering) go toward the Satellite Sentinel Project, an organization he founded that tracks Sudanese dictator Omar al-Bashir and his army by satellite in order to warn innocent Sudanese people of impending attacks. That's right, no extra cars or private jets — he's using a paycheck to keep a watchful eye on war criminals. (Do we even need to say swoon here?)

No One Man Should Have All That Chowder In 1996, James Cameron was shooting part of Titanic in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, when someone dumped PCP into the cast and crew's clam chowder on the last night of shooting. Over 50 people ended up in hospital. The case went cold for decades — until now. Julian Abraham has the scoop on who spiked the chowder, and why.
