The largest mall in the world is 99% empty! Why?


The New South China Mall is located in Dongguan, China, is measured at 9,600,000 square ft, and has room for 2350 stores! However, the mall doesn’t actually have stores in all of these locations. In fact, there are only 47 stores in the mall, most of which are fast food chains! Store owners are reluctant to locate themselves into the mall!

The reason for this is because Dongguan is a suburb in China, and the mall’s location is only accessible by car and bus. The mall isn’t near any highways, and is considered a little inconvenient to get to for majority of the public! As a result, store owners don’t want to rent out space in the mall!

A kidnapper is suing the couple he kidnapped for handing him over to the police! Here’s the story


Now a convicted felon, Jesse Dimmick is a bit of a dim wit. After breaking into the home of the Rowley family during an intense car chase, he held the couple at knife point. The couple was later able to gain his trust by eating Cheetos, drinking Dr Pepper, and watching a Robin Williams movie. When he fell asleep, the Rowley couple turned him over to the police.

Dimmick claims that the Rowley family and him had an oral contract in which they said they wouldn’t turn him over to the police if he gave them an unspecified amount of money! Dimmick is suing them for $235,000! He says he needs this money to pay a hospital bill from a resulting gunshot wound.

The couple denies saying that they wouldn’t turn him over to the police, and the judge of this case is being pressured to throw out Dimmick’s claim because the Rowley family was under extreme stress levels when they may have made this deal. Learn more about this bizarre case by reading the source

Scientists are trying to recreate dinosaurs using chicken DNA!


Jack Horner had seven years of undergraduate study, was a marine, and a paleontology researcher for Princeton University. He then became a curator for the Montana State University’s Museum of the Rockies in Bozeman, Montana. He then talked his bosses into giving him a paleontologist position at the museum, even though he doesn’t have his college degree. Over the past several decades, paleontologists, including Horner, have discovered that modern birds are descendants of dinosaurs.

There are so many similarities that scientists now say that birds are dinosaurs. Researchers have found clues that at least some dinosaur characteristics can be reactivated. They don’t know how it works, exactly, but Horner is determined to figure it out.

He’s attempting to make a “chickenosaurus” and has some seed funding. He’s waiting for some breakthroughs in biology and genetics that will allow him to take chicken eggs and make his “chickenosaurus.” In essence, Horner is actually trying to reverse-evolve a dinosaur.

Picking your nose and eating your boogers is good for your immune system!


The medical community officially calls picking your nose “rhinotillexis,” and to do it compulsively is rhinotillexomania. The act of eating the boogers after picking the nose is called mucophagy. An Austrian doctor has gained some fame for advocating the health benefits of picking your nose and eating your boogers.

He especially advocates the health benefits for children. He says that people who do it are happy, healthier, and more in tune with their bodies. The idea behind it is that by consuming the dried germ corpses it helps the body to strengthen its immune system. The doctor wants to get the word out that the taboo of picking your nose and eating it needs to be dropped.

Society should actually embrace the notion. They should also encourage children to partake in the, er, pastime. The good doctor says we’ll have stronger immune systems and we’ll be better at fighting of sickness and disease. So, cheers to eating boogers.
