Apparently there is a “sphere of fire” that rest in sky, but British scientist have found little evidence for this, ancient stone tablets have claim that at the beginning of time “the earth made love to the sky to create a son of born of fire”.</p> <p>Scientist have suggested that the mythical phenomenon is “like rain but only warm and dry”. Records that date back to the summer 2011 suggest that a weather condition that resemble the myth had happened but only briefly, but the majority of the British public remains skeptical. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=27356#post-75712 Wed, 06 Jul 2011 16:10:18 +0000 writinginbsl 75712@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>5 * Enjoyed this.</p> <p>My son, whilst sitting in a car in 'Focus' car park one summer whilst wearing full Goth regalia (black lipstick, black nail varnish, black eyeliner,long black hair, clothes- I've forgotten what colour..oh yes, I remember now-black, was told by a passer by 'Goths die in hot cars'<br /> He converted back to normal manky teenager soon after. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=27356#post-75440 Tue, 05 Jul 2011 11:23:15 +0000 Basil_B 75440@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>The goths live to be overly morbid another day. </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=27356#post-75435 Tue, 05 Jul 2011 11:13:25 +0000 FraserWords 75435@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>I notice that as soon as Mr Oxbridge wrote a (very funny) piece about the summer, it started pissing down... </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=27356#post-75425 Tue, 05 Jul 2011 09:38:01 +0000 Smaug 75425@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>5* - I wrote a piece about goths, but you disney conformists probably wouldn't understand it.

Not only do we have Goths, but on the hottest summer day in every big American cities, you can see black kids wearing long pants and winter coats. OK if you are way too cool to wear shorts, but couldn't you leave the down jacket at home?

'Drought conditions aren't an issue, since they rarely wash, but they are ill-adapted to high temperatures because they are unable to take their duffel coats off and they can easily become disorientated due to their inability to see through their thick black hair.'</p> <p>Britain's Goth population peaked at around 90,000 in the 1970s. Since then, they have been driven out of town centres by more aggressive, faster-breeding species like Chavs, while their preferred habitats, disused Victorian rectories deep in the countryside, have been acquired and repainted by Londonders inspired by BBC 2's 'Escape to the Country'. Fears are growing that many will now spontaneously combust under the heat leaving only a pair of smoking 18 hole Dr Martens behind them.</p> <p>Goth-lovers have now established a sanctuary in Whitby Abbey and are seeking to lure distressed Goths there by means of artificial darkness and playing Southern Death Cult records around the clock. Some, however, believe that this is doomed to failure. 'This is how evolution works, sadly,' said Dr Richard Dawkins. 'A species that cannot adapt to change and does not even show any interest in breeding will die out, no matter what we do.'</p> <p>There are also growing concerns for the Goth's distant relative, the Emo. Only recognised as a separate species in 2004, Emos suffer from many of the same disadvantages as Goths, compounded by a propensity to commit suicide before they even reach sexual maturity. To minimise the chances of summer-induced cheerfulness becoming too much for them, all copies of My Chemical Romance CDs have been buried in a nuclear bunker.</p> <p>[hat tip to Basil B] </p> http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/topic.php?id=2708#post-7945 Fri, 16 Apr 2010 14:53:50 +0000 MightyBlair 7945@http://newsbiscuit.com/forum/ <p>The union representing clouds is to present a complaint to the Trading Standards Authority regarding the Volcanic Ash Cloud, over what it calls 'a gross monopolisation of the skies'. A spokescloud stated that 'It is alright for your Cumuloninbus Incus and your Stratuscumulus; the big boys can take care of themselves. But what of your Cirrus clouds, eh? What about your Cirrocumulus? It's an abuse of position. If we don't get some clarification we intend to cancel the summer'. </p>
