Man Changes His Name To “Captain Awesome” and Uses Smiley Face With Arrows As Signature

Posted by | Random, WTF?! | No Comments

via Comcast. An Oregan man recently changed his name from Douglas Allen Smith Jr. to “Captain Awesome” last month after being inspired by a character from the NBC television show, Chuck.

The former Mr. Smith says he faced a Lane County judge who questioned his seriousness. The judge that granted the request made him swear he wasn’t changing his name for fraudulent reasons.

Awesome says that judge also allowed him to sign his name as a right arrow, a smiley face and a left arrow.

He says his bank, however, has refused to accept the signature because it could be forged too easily.

Posted by | Only In Japan | No Comments

Someone managed to record their strange toilet experience in Japan. Here’s what she has to say about it.

Around Tokyo in the Shinjuku area I came across this bar with the weirdest toilet I’ve ever seen. A giant sumo wrestler’s head was the least expected thing, let alone when it started singing and moving towards me … the guys told me about the male toilet (urinary in the shape of giant lips that moved side to side) but unfortunately didn’t record it!

It always baffles me how cats can balance like this… this is crazy!

“I took this in the middle of the night on Ed and Frans balcony,” says Flickr user Crazy Ivory.
