did the woman in the sumo suit wave at the man in the snickers suit and then assault her ex? or did she assault her ex for waving at the man in the snickers suit?
on second though what is with the weird costumes anyway?
is the ex ok?
sounds like the ex is now a former lesbian that now has a fondness for chocolate?
this article needs elaboration.
looks to me like the headline was effective.

|  | That's the way uh huh uh huh I like it.. | | Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Robbinsville, NJ | | | One of our local papers way back in the 80's ran a series of stories about a dismembered head found on a golf course (sick, I know), but for the next week or two it was known simply as "Head". It was a disturbing situation but people still laugh about the headlines from one of our local papers:
"Found, Head", "Head Had AIDS", etc etc.

| | | | Is there someone telling people to spread this headline around? This is the third forum I've seen with people lauding this mildly humorous headline as the best ever.
