Terrified Turks stoned an Austrian tourist this week, after they decided his facial piercings, cloak and dyed red hair meant he was a Satanist. Sascha Michael Mariacher, 28, was rescued by police from the angry mob, though “can’t understand why the people were so scared of him,” a local cop revealed (Telegraph).
Meanwhile, in Lincoln (Middle England) a horrified householder called British cops after opening his front door to a ski-mask wearing stranger waving a switched-on chain saw in his face. It later transpired that the masked stranger had been on his way to a fancy dress party dressed as Eminem but had got the wrong address. (Guardian)

London Blokes Prefer More Makeup
A new survey by toothbrush company Oral B has discovered that 78% of British men wish their girlfriends would spend more time doing their makeup.
According to the survey, women now spend just 23 minutes putting on their “face” compared to 90 minutes a decade ago. Though while London blokes want their ladies to wear more makeup or at least put it on more carefully, Northern men still thinking their ladies wear too much makeup (Standard).
In worse news for Northerners, the survey also revealed that “86% of Leeds men have poor oral hygiene,” while “77% of people say their partner's bad breath resulted in their worst kiss ever.”

“The only way to prevent people from trading for what they want is to have watchers on every block: Snitches in every home, children ratting out their parents, and parents sending their children to jail. Is this the kind of country we want to live in? Czarist Russia?” (Rock River Times)

Prince William & America Love Oakey
Paul Oakenfold’s single Starry Eyed Surprise climbed to 54 on America’s hot 100 singles chart last week as British tabloid’s revealed that the track is a favourite with Prince William (the relatively well behaved royal who looks like his mummy Diana).
According to the News of the World, the young prince was recently partying at C list celebrity haunt Attica, and ordered the DJ to spin both Kylie Minogue’s Can’t Get You Out of My Head and Starry Eyed Surprise, “then proceeded to dance on the sofas with his Toff mates.”
Prince William should be able to avoid tabloid reporters and riff raff altogether shortly, as soon as his private discoteque Club C opens in Piccadilly.
