It's Not Funny But I Still Laughed

I saw this morning on my local news about some workmen who'd tied a Muslim colleague to some railings and forced him to eat bacon. I know it's dreadful, but I couldn't help but laugh and marvel at the creativity of British bullies. Well done those men.

Without doubt Britian has the worlds finest bullies.

Yikes!

This all we need - a thread on creative bullying. Almost a bizarre as the Spanish Inquisition torturing with cushions with all the stuffing pushed into the corner to make it particularly painful.

From the the story I heard about how my friend's 13 year old brother was murdered in Australia it aint just us. :(

I had a friend who got smacked across the face with a bear trap when he was mistaken for someone else. He had to get plastic surgery to fix his face. Besides that though we laugh about it now. Honestly...who carries a Bear trap in their trunk as a weapon?!

Canadians?

Slightly off topic this. In the town I came from when blokes got married they were tied to a trailer. They got plastered with the usual stuff like flour, eggs, grease round the ballbag, that type of thing and then towed around the town in a noisy cavalcade.

This one guy I knew who worked for a building firm got a carrot inserted up his arse although his persecutors (obviously concerned with health and safety) put a condom over it first.

I've laughed when reading bizarre stories in the press. I remember a couple: a family who were all killed when Christmas lights covering the exterior of their house caught fire. Also, a man tinkering with a boiler in a factory died when the boiler exploded and scalded him to death. Sorry, folks.

The first one can raise a smile because it involves twinkly lights but I'm afraid the latter...er, no - that's seriously grim. Not a great way to go. :(

Some funny/unusual/painful football injuries on the Arse(nal) website:

Yes, I agree. I think it took place in a pickled onion factory, which makes it a bit more amusing.
