thinglets: Real v. Weird News

Call me weird if you want, but when I look at the "Weird" News section of a "news" website these days, things really aren't that different from the "real" news. In fact I sometimes wonder if perhaps the only difference between the two is that the "real" news is about weird people doing mildly out of character things, while the "weird" news is about "real" people doing things that are often completely "in character".

I'm not in the UK, but I do love telegraph.co.uk's "Weird News" page.
