Russia has the best news

For sheer entertainment read Russian news services. I didn’t think that anything would top the politicians who was kidnapped by the opposition and tatooed (on his face, no less) with communist slogans. But some of the stories on this page come mighty close…

is that real or is that a fake news site? cause if it’s real i want one. a lot.

Russia is a massive place with thousands of inhabitants. You have to multiply all the crazy incidents that happen in countries like Britian by a certain number to get an idea of news in Russia. And then theres the fact that Russians are pretty crazy anyway, look at embracetrees.

:laughing: theres an article on a woman who drinks blood, and one called “theives posing as policemen steal truck full of butter”

:astonished:

and look at this toilet paper that had an article written on it:

:astonished: sometimes i think they make these things up…my grandmother always makes good “pilmeni”, but i dont think i would eat them again after reading this…

It appears to be real. I know that its a little hard to say sometimes but the frontpage looks real enough…

That this fooled any of you for more than 2.5 seconds is hilarious :stuck_out_tongue:
Invisibility cloak?
rofl

Yeah, like, totally great argument man…

Actualy reading that article convinced me it was real even more. I have watched programmes about this invisibility technology. Its not hard to understand, there is a camera on the mans chest, it sends the live video of whats infront of him to a projector behind him that projects it onto the special material on his coat. Thus making him appear invisible.

Okay Dr S, I’m willing to accept the likelihood of a hoax but for the sake of argument do you have any actual proof?

So you accept it may be a hoax after I explain why invisibility cloaks are possible? :confused:

Come on Dr S, nail the rabbit to the wall…

:astonished: gasp

yea the “invisibility cloak” is basically a projector shooting you with a picture of whats behind you. its really kinda stupid. you can do the same god damn thing at home with a white shirt a video camera and a projector.

I’m still waiting, Dr S…
