I originally posted this thread because i thought I found authentic shrunken heads being sold online, but I read it again and found they were made from goat skin, but I figured if anyone found some other weird internet stuff they could post it here too.

Yeah I would find any listing for shrunken heads sketchy. There's no documentation saying that they even do that anymore, but I watched what's believed to be the only shrunken head ceremony caught on tape on National Geographic's website and it was pretty neat.

A flyer for this place was on our windshield yesterday. It strikes me as strange for some reason:

That link does not seem to be working, and I'm intrigued, so this is killing me.

It appears that the flyer has provided a dead link. Looks like I will not be able to have my moonbounce rental needs sated in the near future.

How do I explain this.... Uhhh I caught wind of this SCP stuff on 4chan a few weeks ago, and on that site is a list of different.... objects/living things that have abnormal properties.... I dunno how to explain it, its really interesting. And it seems alot of people put alot of effort into this.
The wiki seems to be set up, like some government orginization that handles paranormal things, and every page seems like its a file on each one of these "SCP's". SCP stands for Special Containment Procedure.
Here is an Example. :
Item #: SCP-058
Object Class: Keter
Special Containment Procedures: SCP-058 is to be kept in isolation in a 5 m by 5 m by 5 m containment chamber at all times. Walls are to be constructed of 3 m (10 ft) of reinforced heat-resistant steel, backed with a further 10 m (33 ft) of reinforced concrete. SCP-058 is to be fed a live cow every three days. Maintenance is to be conducted every sixty (60) minutes while SCP-058 is dormant and every fifteen (15) minutes when SCP-058 is active. Under no circumstances is SCP-058 to be allowed out of its containment area. SCP-058 is to be audio recorded at all times. No personnel are to listen to SCP-058 for more than thirty (30) minutes at a time. In case of escape, facility is to be considered compromised and detonation of on-site nuclear weaponry is to commence. To date, SCP-058 has been responsible for the death of at least one hundred and forty-nine (149) Class-D personnel and fourteen (14) Agents at its current site.
Description: SCP-058 resembles a bovine heart, with four (4) arthropod-like legs used primarily for movement, and four (4) tentacles of adjustable length, covered with razor sharp spines. It has a single sharp 'stinger' on its rear, where the hole for the superior vena cava would be in a typical organ. SCP-058's tentacles can be "whipped" to a distance of 3.2 m (10.5 ft) at speeds in excess of 320 km/h (200 mph). SCP-058 is extremely hostile and will use every opportunity afforded to it to inflict damage on its surroundings. SCP-058 has been shown to be highly resilient to trauma, and should be approached with caution even when apparently incapacitated.
SCP-058 is highly mobile and capable of rapid movement on both horizontal and vertical surfaces. It has been recorded reaching a speed of approximately 90 km/h (55 mph) in short bursts, covering distances up to 200 m (656 ft), and has the ability to accelerate from 0 to 90 km/h (55 mph) in less than two (2) seconds. It has been shown to use its tentacles for increased leverage and stability, as well as utilizing them to pull itself to other surfaces at high speeds.
SCP-058 'speaks' in a human voice, though no method of producing sound has been observed in its physiology. It speaks with vocal tone and accent of an elderly British male with a slight lisp and deep voice. SCP-058 talks constantly, regardless of conditions: even when attacking, SCP-058's voice and pace of speech are unchanged. The speech of SCP-058 is lacking any detectable correlation to events, persons, or exterior locations involved with SCP-058 (see Transcript of Interview 058-04).
Thats just one of over 1000, and I picked one at random, and thats not even half of the page.
