Weird News: The Ridiculous Thanksgiving Weekend Edition

Naked mariners, Honey Boo Boo, Bigamy Plot, Toilet Rat and more. Because 'weird' never takes a holiday.

By Todd Richissin

During this holiday weekend devoted to being thankful, we give thanks to Weird.

Not everything weird, of course. We could do without the naked person at the bus stop, the weirdly stupid robbers and maybe even the very weirdly popular Honey Boo Boo.

But a weekend without Weird is not like a weekend at all. And so, here you go: An extra helping of leftover Weird from the past few months from our Patches in Virginia and Washington, D.C.
