Idiot Criminal of the Day
About
two years ago, 55-year-old Meloney Selleneit of Centerville, Utah told
her husband, 53-year-old Michael Selleneit, that their neighbor had been
sexually assaulting her. Not because he'd ever touched her or even SAID
anything to her. She said she was a victim of, quote, "telepathic
rape." He was just doing it with his mind. Her husband actually BELIEVED
her and was ALSO convinced the neighbor was using crack cocaine to
control his wife's mind. So Meloney bought Michael a gun, he couldn't
buy one himself, because he was a convicted felon and he SHOT their
41-year-old neighbor, Tony Pierce, twice. Fortunately, Pierce
survived. Since, in case you hadn't caught on, he didn't do ANYTHING,
except get caught up in his neighbor's crazy delusions. Now the
Selleneits are finally on trial. Meloney has pleaded guilty to attempted
criminal solicitation and possession of a dangerous weapon by a
restricted person. Michael pleaded guilty to attempted manslaughter and
use of a firearm by a restricted person. He has been sentenced to
anywhere from two to 30 years in prison. And she'll be sentenced next
month. Both of them tried to plead insanity, but were denied.

There
are a lot of bad parents out there. Then there are CRIMINALLY bad
parents. On Monday, a 22-year-old guy and his 18-year-old friend were
playing guitars outside a youth center in Akron, Ohio when an
11-year-old KID started an argument with them. Then the boy's mother,
31-year-old Deanna Hillyer, pulled up in her car along with her
15-year-old son and instead of being the adult, SHE started arguing with
them too. Then she watched as her 15-year-old picked up his brother's
bike and SWUNG it at the two men, hitting one of them in the HEAD with
it. And while the two boys kicked him on the ground, their mom hit the
18-year-old across the face with a tire pressure gauge. Someone
eventually ran in and broke up the fight, but not before the older of
the two men suffered some serious injuries to his head. And it turns out
it all started when the 11-year-old asked the two men for a CIGARETTE
and they refused. It's not clear if the mother KNEW that, but we
wouldn't be surprised. Deanna was also arrested in 2010 for child
endangerment, then again in 2011 after one of her other kids fell
through a second story WINDOW. Deanna and her two sons are now facing
charges for assault and disorderly conduct. Both victims are back home
recovering.
A Major Pasta Company CEO Says He Doesn't Want Gays Eating His Spaghetti
I'm
not sure anyone has brand loyalty when it comes to spaghetti noodles,
don't you just buy whatever's on sale at the grocery store? But at least
now you have a reason NOT to buy one brand. Guido Barilla is the CEO of
the Italian company Barilla, which is a pretty big pasta brand
worldwide. And on Wednesday, he was on an Italian radio show and said,
quote, "We won't include gays in our ads, because we like the
traditional family. If gays don't like it, they can always eat another
brand of pasta." Right, because if there's one thing gay people want,
it's processed carbs. Anyway, yesterday he tried to backpedal and
figured it might be better to come off vaguely misogynist rather than
full-on homophobic. Quote, "I apologize if my words generated
misunderstandings or controversy, in the interview I just wanted to
underline the centrality of the woman's role in the family.
A Guy Re-Growing a New Nose on His Forehead
A
common plastic surgery technique that doctors use involves taking tissue
from one part of the body, and transferring it into place. But this
might be a first. A new photo is circulating around of a man in China
who lost his nose and is re-growing one on his forehead and it's
absolutely FANTASTIC.

An Office Is Evacuated Because of an Envelope With White Powder, But Someone Was Just Trying to Pay a Bill With Crack
Yesterday
morning, a guy in Deltona, Florida walked into a water department
office, handed an employee an envelope, and walked out. And when the
employee opened the envelope, she found WHITE POWDER inside. So the
employees called the cops, who evacuated the entire building and brought
in a Hazmat team to figure out what the white powder
was. Anthrax? Poison? Something else lethal? No, it turned out to be
CRACK. Apparently the guy who'd delivered it didn't have cash to pay his
water bill, so he tried to pay for it in crack cocaine. The sheriff's
department is tracking him down.

A Man Intentionally Overdoses On Viagra to Impress His Girlfriend and Ends Up With His Junk Amputated
We've got a cautionary tale about overdosing on drugs. And even though it happened in Colombia, somehow it's not about overdosing on cocaine. Or really strong coffee. Earlier this month, a 66-year-old farmer from Gigante, Colombia wanted to impress his new girlfriend, so he intentionally OD'd on VIAGRA. Unfortunately for him, the Viagra worked too well and his ENGORGEMENT wouldn't go down. After a few days, it started to HURT, and he ended up going to the hospital. The doctors found it was INFLAMED, FRACTURED, and had GANGRENE, so they had to AMPUTATE his penis to keep the inflammation and gangrene from spreading. The doctors say he's now, quote, "recovering well", but you'd have to imagine there's a cap on how good you can feel after having your junk amputated.

On Friday, a screening of the new Hugh Jackman movie "Prisoners" was interrupted at a theater near Portland, Oregon when someone thought a person had pulled a GUN. Thankfully, they were wrong. It started when a man in his 70s, who hasn't been identified, decided to go to the bathroom. But instead of leaving the theater, he unzipped and relieved himself on a 14-year-old KID. And yes, police say the man HAD been drinking. At that point, the kid's parents FLIPPED OUT on the guy. And during the fight, someone thought they heard something about a weapon. Now, it's not clear what the person THOUGHT they heard, but they yelled out that someone had a GUN, and the whole theater started panicking. Then nearby businesses were put on lockdown. Eventually, police got there and DIDN'T find any weapons. And in the end, the elderly man was just banned from the theater. So far, the family of the kid has decided NOT to press charges.
A Mom Catches Her Daughter and Friends Lying to Hang Out With Older Guys So She's Selling Their One Direction Concert Tickets on eBay
There's a mother in Queensland, Australia whose daughter is at that terrifying age where she's obsessed with guys, whether they're the older guys at her school or 90-pound British guys in a boy band. Apparently, earlier this month, the mom caught her daughter and friends LYING about sleepovers so they could go hang out at an older guy's house. Her daughter's exact age wasn't released, but I'm guessing somewhere between 13 and 17. So now the mom is getting her revenge through rational, reasoned parenting and discipline. Just kidding. She's punishing her daughter and friends by SELLING the ONE DIRECTION tickets she bought for them on eBay. In the eBay listing, she wrote, quote, "You can thank my daughter's self-righteous and lippy attitude for their sale. See sweety? And you thought I was bluffing. "You all LIED to us about sleepovers so you could hang like little trollops at an older guy's house. I find it highly amusing you girls think you invented this stuff. Tricks like this on OUR parents is how half of you were conceived." Unfortunately, once this eBay auction started getting attention, some people made ridiculous bids, like $35,000 for four tickets. So the auction has been temporarily pulled down.

Wait, there's only 10 different types of smells!? See what they are here:
You
probably know that your taste buds only pick up five flavors, salty,
sour, bitter, sweet, and savory and everything you eat, drink, or
randomly lick falls into those categories. Turns out the same thing
happens with smell. Scientists at Bates College in Maine have found that
there are really only 10 SMELLS in the world, and everything you smell
falls into one of those categories.
The 10 smells are:
Fragrant, like flowers
Woody
Lemon and citrus
Other fruit
Chemical
Mint
Sweet
Pungent
Popcorn
Decayed
Yes,
for some reason popcorn gets its own. And decayed sums up pretty much
everything BAD, from a rotting corpse to the rotting smell of the room
after everyone ate at Chipotle.
The Top 10 Things We All Do, But Would Never Admit
There's
a lot of stuff that goes on when you're alone that you'd NEVER talk
about. And how do we know you do it? Because everyone ELSE does it
too. There was a discussion online yesterday about the things we ALL do,
but would never admit. Here are the top 10...
1. Practicing conversations in your head in advance.
2.
Being a hypocritical driver. Like, when someone else slows down because
they're lost, you yell at them, but if YOU slow down because you're
lost, you don't know why everyone yells at you.
3. Picking your nose.
4. Winning arguments in your head long after the argument ended.
5. Caring way too much about what other people think about you.
6. Getting into debates and arguments when you really don't have much knowledge on the subject.
7. Admiring the size and volume of what you just left in the toilet.
8. Picturing an entire relationship in your head when you first start dating someone.
9. Occasionally having a racist thought, even though you KNOW you're not racist.
10. Using the bathroom at home and not washing your hands.

No means no. Even when that "no" is in response to the question, "Can I please perform an exorcism to remove the demon that may or may not be possessing you?" On Monday night, 54-year-old David Benes of Tampa, Florida wanted to perform an EXORCISM on his 80-year-old girlfriend. Yes, that's right, his EIGHTY-YEAR-OLD girlfriend. They've been together three years and we're not sure how they met. She didn't want him to perform the exorcism, it's not clear if she even believed she NEEDED an exorcism, but he went ahead with it anyway. But things got too rough, and she ended up calling 911. When the cops got there, they found bruises and scratches on her arms. David was arrested on several charges, including battery on a person over 65 and false imprisonment. Oh, and he was drunk at the time.

Well, at least no one can blame this crime on PLAYING "Grand Theft Auto Five". You can only blame it on WANTING to play "Grand Theft Auto Five". On Monday night, 19-year-old Kirolos Sayed, 20-year-old Matthew Kirshen, and 19-year-old Frank Santanastoso from Staten Island, New York wanted to get a copy of "Grand Theft Auto Five", but didn't want to wait in a 500-person line at the mall. So they POSED AS COPS to jump the line. Kirolos and Matthew flashed fake badges at mall security, and Frank showed off a tattoo of a police badge. They convinced the guards they were cops and got into the mall right before midnight. They bought a copy of the game, ran out, and hopped in their car, which they'd rigged up with lights and sirens. They peeled out of the mall parking lot and blew a few stop signs before a REAL cop pulled them over. All three of them were arrested for impersonating a police officer.
Jim Carrey Headed For “Breakdown”?
Friends fear Jim Carrey is “headed for a devastating breakdown,” claims the National Enquirer.
“Jim has suffered from severe depression in the past, and you have to worry those fearful days are coming back again,” a so-called “close source” tells the tabloid.
The Enquirer insider adds, “When you talk to him, he’s not as animated as he used to be. He seems at a low point — like a ship without a rudder.”
According to the outlet, Carrey’s “most heartbreaking problem is that he still pines for the love of his life, former Playboy playmate Jenny McCarthy.”
Another Enquirer insider explains, “There’s no shortage of young beauties who will throw themselves at Jim, but he’s been searching for real love, and there’s no one to replace Jenny.”
Carrey’s “disastrous love life” and career “doldrums” mean the actor could be in serious trouble, suggests the magazine, which cites “concerned sources” as saying that his problems “could push him over the edge.”
One source tells the Enquirer, “He’s in a fragile emotional state. Pals fear for his future.”
Uh-huh.
The tabloid seems to love nothing more than predicting meltdowns and breakdowns for various Hollywood stars — Christina Applegate, Halle Berry, Katie Holmes, Jennifer Lawrence — getting it wrong over and over again.
And that’s what’s happened yet again here.
The story is “not true,” a close Carrey pal tells Gossip Cop, adding, “He’s never been happier.”

A Man Offers Free Football Tickets If You Take His Stepdaughter on a Date and She's Not Bad
I don't think this counts as a stepdad PIMPING out his stepdaughter, if anything it seems like more of a DOWRY? A man in Gainesville, Florida is giving away two tickets to a big college football game on Saturday between the University of Florida and the University of Tennessee. So the tickets are FREE, but there's a catch. The person who gets the tickets has to take this guy's stepdaughter to the game on a DATE. The guy's Craigslist ad says, quote, "Your cost will be a modest dinner, drinks, and delightful conversation with her before or after the game." So his stepdaughter must be horrible, right? Nope. From the photos he put up, she certainly doesn't LOOK like she'd need help getting a date. She's not a supermodel, but it doesn't seem like a BRIBE is required to help her meet guys. Her stepdad is reviewing people who submitted to the ad. He's looking for, quote, "an attractive, professional, single, well-educated gentleman with a good sense of humor, [ages] 25 to 33." He's also hoping the person is a Tennessee fan

Have you ever rented a moving truck that wasn't big enough, and had to make two trips? You probably kicked yourself for not paying extra for the bigger one, but not as hard as THESE idiots are kicking themselves. On Friday, three burglars in Winter Park, Florida decided to rob a woman's house while she wasn't home. And they managed to pack $10,000 worth of stuff into the U-Haul they rented. But they wanted MORE, so they left, unloaded the truck, and then went back for a second load. But by that time, a neighbor had realized what was going on and called the woman who lived there. So when they showed up with the empty U-Haul and realized she was HOME, they took off. But the woman followed them in her car, called 911, and now they're facing charges for burglary, criminal mischief, and grand theft.
Your Purse Is Swimming with Horrifying Bacteria Because You Take Off Your Underwear and Put It Inside
We've seen several studies about how your purse is just a CESSPOOL of HORRIBLE BACTERIA like E. coli and coliforms. And a new study confirmed it and posed a new theory WHY. They think one of the big reasons women's purses get filled with bacteria is that women take off their USED underwear and jam it in their purse. Like if they brought sexier underwear to put on when they were out in case a date went really well. Putting used tissues in there can also lead to problems. The study also found one-third of women never clean their purses.
A Guy Buys the New "Grand Theft Auto" Game, Then Gets Robbed, Stabbed, and Hit with a Brick on His Way Home
The
"Grand Theft Auto" video games are notorious for their over-the-top
violence. Which is why this is tragic, but also ironic. A 23-year-old
guy in London camped out in front of a store Monday night, so he'd be
one of the first people to get the new "Grand Theft Auto 5" game. And
this sounds like something that would happen in the GAME, but while he
was walking home around one in the morning, someone hit him with a
brick, STABBED him, and took all his stuff, including the video game. He
survived, and he's in stable condition. Police are still looking for
suspects.

A Man Shoots and Kills Another Man for Complimenting His Girlfriend's Bathing Suit Photo on Facebook
In June, a 21-year-old woman named Sharda Perkins from Oklahoma City posted a photo of herself in a bathing suit on Facebook. It's a one-piece, but one where the sides are cut out, so it's pretty revealing. And in July, a 48-year-old named Edmond Tyree left a comment on the photo, just saying, "DAMN." He misspelled it d-a-m-m, which is what people do on Facebook. It's not clear how Edmond knew Sharda. Five days later, Sharda's boyfriend, 20-year-old Antwion Martin, tracked Edmond down, and SHOT AND KILLED HIM, all because he left that Facebook comment. The police were able to piece together what happened, and arrested Martin for first-degree murder and shooting with intent to kill. David Prater is the district attorney for Oklahoma County. He says, quote, "This is a perfect example of some of the ridiculous reasons people kill for."

A Judge Orders a Fighting Couple to Split Their Apartment Right Down the Middle
A
judge in Seville, Spain just ordered a fighting couple to draw a line
down the middle of their apartment and each stay on their own side. The
couple is DONE with each other, but can't afford a divorce or for one of
them to move out and get another place. So they're going to live
side-by-side in their apartment. The couple has two daughters, it's not
clear which side they're going to live on. The apartment is 2,700 square
feet, so at least they'll all have a decent amount of space. And no,
we're not sure how they could afford a 2,700-square-foot apartment but
not a divorce.

Google's
gotten a lot of attention for using SELF-DRIVING CARS to take photos
for their mapping. But if anyone was worried about self-driving cars
causing accidents, remember this: Human drivers are probably WORSE. Last
week, Google had an actual HUMAN driving around in one of their mapping
cars, taking photos in Bogor, Indonesia. Big mistake. Apparently the
guy slammed into a minivan, then drove off once he saw there was real
damage. I'm not sure how he thought he could make an inconspicuous
getaway in a car with a giant camera rig on top, but he did. And as he
was fleeing the scene, he slammed into ANOTHER minivan, then bounced off
and slammed into a THIRD car. Finally, at that point, he gave up. He
was arrested and there's been no word from Google. By the way, the cops
say the repairs to the first van he hit would've only cost him 200,000
Indonesia Rupiah, the equivalent of $17.50.

A Woman Was Texting While Driving, and Drove Straight Into a Lake
On
Tuesday afternoon, a 25-year-old woman from Temple Hills, Maryland was
texting while driving. And while she was distracted, her Hyundai went
off the road, hit a TREE and sent her CAREENING about 50 feet straight
into a LAKE. The car started SINKING, but the woman managed to crawl out
the window and swim back to shore. The car came to rest in a part of
the lake that's only about five feet deep, so it didn't sink all the
way. But it's clearly DESTROYED, after sitting there, soaking in the
lake. The woman was taken to the hospital, but didn't have any
noticeable injuries. Charges against her are pending. The photos from
the scene look like they're straight out of a movie. And since no one
DIED, and this woman was driving and texting like an idiot, we can all
laugh without feeling guilty.
A Dad Didn't Approve of His Daughter's Cut-Off Jean Shorts, So He Wore a Pair of His Own to Embarrass Her
Being a
good parent sometimes means sacrificing your own dignity, and doing
something over-the-top just to prove a point. Like this. Last month, a
guy near Provo, Utah named Scott Mackintosh was going out to dinner with
his family. And he wasn't thrilled about how short his teenage
daughter's jean shorts were. But she refused to change so HE decided to.
Scott went up to his bedroom, took some scissors to an old pair of
jeans, and cut them WAY shorter than any middle-aged man can get away
with. Then he grabbed a "Best Dad Ever" t-shirt he'd gotten for Father's
Day and threw that on too. First, they hit up a restaurant, and the
daughter pretended his outfit didn't bother her. So after dinner, Scott
decided to keep the night going and take his family miniature golfing.
But she STILL acted like she wasn't embarrassed. So after golf, he took
them out for milkshakes. And FINALLY his daughter got angry and refused
to go inside with him. But the TRUE embarrassment for her was still to
come. Because the photos were posted online, and got THOUSANDS of
comments. Scott talked to the local news last week, and said his
daughter IS covering up a little more than she had been. And to teach
her about self-respect, he says he'd dress up like an idiot every day of
his life.
