Weird Item #1: Well folks your political correctness has officially gone too far. Tom & Jerry are under attack. The cartoon mouse and cat who have entertained people of all ages for decades are being censored due to a single complaint about the pair smoking a cigarette (in Oscar winning episode, by the way!). Thank you media watchdog Ofcom for overreacting with such speed and force. Other cartoons like Scooby Doo, The Jetsons, and The Flinstones will also have to cut out any objectionable content that might encourage smoking (though cartoon violence isn’t an issue?). Thanks for not letting a free America do something crazy – like think for themselves.
Weird Item #2: Snakes in a theater? A few fans decided to release rattlesnakes in a theater in Phoenix, Arizona. The movie that was playing? Yep, you got it, Snakes on a Plane. Reports vary on the incident, but one thing is certain – this stunt was even dumber than the movie, though not quite as dumb as our Weird News Item above.
