Newsletter of COOL STUFF #2
Hello y’all and welcome back to the Newsletter of COOL STUFF. It’s been a fun week on the internet so I just wanted to talk about some interesting shit I found.
You’ve earned my click
I found a story about an Alabama man who thought he’d been shot by an intruder. It turns out it was his wife’s boyfriend, secretly living in their house
First of all what the FUCK. I know many news article tweets have so much unnecessary clickbait usually, but this one I read the entire thing and I have so fucking many questions.
How big is the house?
Yes, I know that you don’t go to every part of your house every day of the week. However, I feel like you have to visit some part of your property eventually so that you can literally sniff this out. I would like to see the Zillow link, please.
2. “There were bottles of urine in the room, which indicated he had been in there for a little while.”
Again HOW BIG IS THE HOUSE? Also guessing that he wasn’t going to risk being seen by going to the bathroom… does that mean that he DIDN’T SHOWER that often either?
Alright, that’s enough from me on this case. I’m going to be checking every inch of my living space for a long time after this.

The Milk Crate Olympics
SO. People are stacking milk crates like a pyramid and trying to see if they can walk all the way on it without falling. Not many are succeeding. I’m thinking about this a lot because the falls look painful as all hell.

Some succeed and some fail spectacularly.

It also begs the question of where they’re getting all these crates from. I’ve never seen that many milk crates together in my life. How were you able to find 49 crates with ease?
Anyway, here is the crate king as far as I’m concerned.

My favorite trend
People have been making fun of Regular Show’s wacky pacing. The 11-minute show is hilarious and known for the most mundane plot points turning into epic moments of What the FUCK. Here are some of my favorites so far lol.

Video of the week!
One of my favorite videos of all time is this 52-minute video analyzing the Pirates of the Caribbean movie and how the first one is genius. Trust me you’ll definitely enjoy this video essay.
