For our readers from the United States, we are approaching that loud and delicious holiday known as July 4th.

Dear readers,

The Princess Bride is one of the best films ever made – fight us! So while we’d never get involved in a land war in Asia, we will get involved in digging out these stories from our archives, fighting off the rodents of unusual size and climbing the cliffs of insanity while we’re at it!

The following nine stories are from our readers who share our fandom, even if it is just a “kissing book”!

The Projector Was Only Mostly Dead – With this many Princess Bride fans in one place, something inconceivable was bound to happen.

The Paint Is In Aisle Five; Prepare To Die – They have a left-handed six-fingered aisle!

As You Wish… – Another example of what happens when someone wants to hate the movie so badly.

Dear readers,

There are many customers on this site who are demanding, hilariously entitled, and generally just terrible people. And then you get those who ask for the impossible, those special cases who don’t know how the world works, but won’t let that get in the way of the customer being right!

We’ve dusted off fifteen stories from our archives that show it’s not impossible, to demand the impossible.

Hard Sell, Soft Drinks – Packaging may say differently, but this doesn’t exist…

Ink-conceivable – You’ll find this item in the ‘impossible products’ aisle next to the striped paint and the fat-free chocolate.

Definitely Not To Be – When what they’re actually looking for is a time machine.

Dear readers,

You get those tourists who try to learn a little about the culture they’re visiting, do some research, and be respectful of the place. And then you have those… that do the opposite of all those things!

We’ve scoured the globe, or our archives, for thirteen stories about terrible tourists who had absolutely no clue about where they going. Now please sit back, relax, and enjoy the journey!

Just Give Them A Watered Down Answer – When tourists are stupid enough to believe you can turn off Mother Nature, just nod and smile!

Mountainous Gaps Of Knowledge – This group is ignorant of both geography and geology.

Low IQ On The High Seas – How… how does she think boats work?!
