Say What? Wrestling Fake?

In the 2013 Money in the Bank ladder match, Randy Orton’s spinal injury might have been the only unscripted moment of the whole event. But if you’ve been reading Dolphins1925’s Reddit threads, then that’s no surprise. The Redditor has accurately predicted the outcomes of the last 38 WWE matches. Obviously, the WWE’s organization has sprung a leak, but the organization doesn’t seem to be taking it too seriously, saying in a statement: “We may have a modern day Nostradamus on our hands. We might have to monitor these posts in advance of our next pay-per-view to see how good he or she really is.” H/T TomoNews Funnies

The invention could free up thousands of police officers around the world for more important duties, such as donut inspections and marathon sitting. H/T Next Media Animation

Obama Pushes FBI Wiretaps

According to reports, President Barack Obama is close to backing surveillance laws that would make it easier for the FBI to ‘wiretap’ and eavesdrop on the Internet. The FBI says it needs the law to monitor the communications of tech-savvy criminals. But opponents cite this as yet another overreach by the Obama administration, which has shown itself all too willing to trample the Constitution and Bill of Rights. More from TomoNews Funnies.

The Barbies Are Coming

Valeria Lukyanova, the real-life Barbie from Ukraine, now has a twin, Olga “Dominica” Oleynik, who tries to mirror Lukyanova’s cosmetically enhanced appearance in every way.

Movement Afoot to Split Spain

Catalans in the northeastern quadrant of Spain are pushing to secede, believing they are shouldering too much of the burden for propping up the financially beleaguered nation. Secession movements are gaining ground elsewhere — not just in the United States, but also in Scotland, which has a vote scheduled next year on whether to leave Great Britain and become an independent nation.
