I once booked tickets to a show in London, but found out it was London, Ontario. Not London England, which is already about as far away as anything can be from where I live without crossing water.
I contacted the organisers explaining I know the terms and conditions say no refunds unless the shows cancelled, but hear me out… I’m an idiot! Please please please give me my money back

They replied saying they had a good laugh and gave me a refund.

I feel like Nick Offerman would be a good choice to play him in a movie.

You’ve missed out the Scottish snow badger. Like the regular European badger but about a third larger and completely white to blend into their (now disappearing) snowy highland habitats.
They are the sole reason hard plastic shell ski boots were invented after it was found that snow badgers have no problem biting through the old leather ski boots we used to use.
They hibernate through the summer months and only come out to hunt during the winter so it’s very hard to get a photo of them.

He had previously ran to ask the Spartans for help on the battle but they wouldn’t leave until after some festival or something.
So, he then ran to the battle, fought, then ran back to Athens to tell everyone because a ship had slipped past the battle on its way to Athens and if it got back before their army the enemy would just say they won and sack Athens. The Guy is a machine.
His full adventure inspired the ultramarathon The spartathalon

I think it was the wordsmith Scroobius pip that wrote that lyric

That is how you spell pheonix and I don’t care what the Oxford English dictionary or anyone else says.

Oh man I freaking loved that game. Playing through pink Floyd dark side of the moon or NOFX the decline.
The being able to put any CD in to create levels was mind blowing at the time.
