Here’s one for the drug side-effects irony files. It’s a class of drugs to prevent osteoperosis, but in rare cases, they can cause another condition called bone necrosis.

It Sucks To Be A Clown
So, let’s take a poll. How many of you agree with 250 British children in your disdain for clowns?

They Can’t Vandalize If They’re In Their Happy Place
If you thought the story about British police putting up signs asking citizens to not commit crimes was funny, here’s another good one.
