One night, while having dinner with my wife and friends, they started laughing about a strange two legged cat at Youtube. There are multiple posts out there showing various four legged animals that are missing or born without legs and and one of those is shown herein. We started using the phrase "two legged cat" instead of "that's crazy" or that is beyond belief.
It got me thinking. What is the difference between "two legged cat" and "what the f*(@" abreviated as WTF. I've come to conclusion that the "cat or TLC" is a strange but true incident while the wtf refers to merely increduous and crazy crap that is probably false.
So how do you differentiate?
TLC is the strange but true things that go on our world. For example, the youngest mother on record gave birth at the age of 5 years, 7 months and 21 days. This is an amazing and sad case, but entirely true and documented with pictures in 1939. It is a terrible case also because the father was never identified and should have had the most severe punishment possible for having sex with a five year old. Other two legged cats might be where the most haunted town in England cancelled Halloween.
A most amusing TLC is found in Boise ID.The teenager probably will be on the list of Darwin Awardees and may fit the category perfectly because he will be hard pressed to reproduce. Lucky for us.
A teenager who tried to copy a scene from the hit file 'American Pie' by shagging an apple pie was rushed to the hospital with serious burns to his penis.
Dwight Emburger, 17, couldn't wait for the tasty pastry to cool down and after he slid in his pecker he was badly scalded by the hot filling.
A hospital spokesman in Boise, Idaho, said: "This demonstrates that producers should consider the effect their films have on young and impressionable people."
I think the hospital spokesman should have been more worried about horny young idiots, than about impressionable young people.
The WTF category has some of the most amusing items that are often portrayed as real when with little review they are found to be fake. For exampe, Iraqi militants reported they had captured a soldier and were going to behead him. The soldier turned out to be an action figure. A picture of the captured soldier and the action figure kit is shown below.
I find it amusing that AP thought this was a real story and did not confirm the news before running it.
A Foster's Beer ad was portrayed as real when a bungee jumper was bitten by a crockodile during a jump.
We find many WTF in our political arena but they are too many to cover in such a short space.
Enjoy your own WTF and TLC videos and pictures. They make the world a fun place to live. My definition may be off base but then WTF.
Sweetheart, you can't explain the difference between a two legged cat and a plain ole WTF. Either you get it or you don't and this is certainly one of those instances where "you had to be there."
