The Gävle Goat becoming an arson victim almost every year has regrettably spread around the idea of burning Swedish-style Christmas goats, which means that in Iceland IKEA's goat was placed under heavy surveillance this year just like all the previous ones. Alas, one possibility was overlooked...

...the goat torched itself.

Most likely the Christmas lights they had covered it with caused the fire. :D The current plan is apparently to build a new, bigger one.

That is the funniest thing I've heard all day (and horrible Google-translate of Icelandic only added to the humor :P )

So I was just out for lunch, and I was sitting down near a young lady who was chatting on the phone in a bright, chirpy voice. I didn't really pay attention to what she was saying, only noticing when she said, "Okay, see you in a bit - love you!" then hung up. She instructed her phone to call somebody else, then in an entirely different, serious voice, said, "The target is in position." Then hung up.

I don't know what to think, except that the pasta I had was delicious.

Ah, the joys of listening to snippets of other people's conversations. Who needs context?

What happens when you're obviously not organized or logical enough and what you need for a recipe is not in the kitchen ? You began to do some archeology in your boxes -__- (Why isn't it in the kitchen ?)

Sounds like a police sting operation. Or she was just being silly or trying to confuse people listening in.

And if you'd just been two seconds faster you would have posted that at 10:33:01. Wouldn't that be something magical. Double rainbow all the way.
