Breaking news! There’s something strange happening in your area! We will report on it to the best of our abilities, but don’t be alarmed if there are a few typos we later have to correct. The important thing is that we will use crazy news headlines to grab your attention and go viral on Twitter. We will keep you updated on the story, but for now, that’s all. We now return to your regularly scheduled programming.
We all know there are always weird things happening worldwide, and many of them make the headlines. We’ve all come across the funny Florida man headlines, right? The oddest part is that the titles catch your attention even if the news isn’t particularly interesting. This might be because they have typos, focus on uncommon issues, or are unrescuable mental headlines.
For your entertainment, pandas, we’ve taken a trip through the feed of the ‘Crap Local News’ Twitter account. They share the most hilarious typo corrections and funniest news headlines. We were also lucky enough to interview Scotty Horsman, who hosts the ‘What a Weird Week’ podcast.
Don’t forget to upvote the pics you can’t believe are real. Feel free to share any hilarious headlines you’ve read in the comments below.

I get so tired of the slams against Christianity. People are so quick to assume that all Christians are jerks or ignorant. It just gets old. But what I do find fascinating is that you never hear broad-based slams against other religions even though every religion has just as many poorly behaved people in them. Why is Christianity the one with a bullseye on its back? Why is believing in Jesus Christ such a contentious topic versus other religions that worship a different version of deity?
This Twitter Account Urges People to Enjoy More Funny News Headlines
Watching or reading the news can be an upsetting experience. Sometimes, it feels like the only things being reported are tragedies and atrocities. Don’t get us wrong; it’s essential to be aware of current events, but every now and then, it’s refreshing to read ridiculous headlines and laugh out loud. And that’s what the Crap Local News Twitter account is all about.
The account mainly focuses on funny UK headlines, but they don’t discriminate. Their bio notes that they share local news stories from “beyond” as well. But one thing that their posts show is that headlines can have quite an impact on audiences. Some people might get swayed and influenced by the attention-grabbing titles without understanding the story’s context. It is important to note how much power a headline can hold.

Went bowling this weekend. My kid accidentally used a ball of the people who were using the same rack thing as us. The woman was a b****about it snd said something to my husband. Dhe immediately stomped over to bowl and slung her ball behind her. Instant karma. She recognized it too. She said that happened to her because she was being ugly to us. She apologized and kinda backed away nervously.

that's actually really close! polly's anxiety was soothed by being swaddled in blankets, but the blankets would fall off when she stood up & she would get really anxious again. so when halloween came & her owner/mom saw the costume, she thought it would be perfect for polly & it was!

The Interesting Impact of a Headline
When you enjoy these funny breaking news headlines, it might not feel like they can drastically sway your opinion. But these news titles are more powerful than we could imagine. We consulted an article titled The Current State of News Headlines by research associates Joshua Scacco and Ashley Muddiman. The report examined the implications of crazy Internet headlines and how people select which story to read based on the flashiest title.
One point that Scacco and Muddiman raise is that the type of titles a news source uses impacts how their readers rate their credibility. Traditional news has to compete with digital and entertainment-focused sources. Due to this, they also move away from using standard titles, and you might see more funny newspaper headlines. Ultimately, this might make you question the reliability of traditional media.

I walked out on my back porch one evening and found a web with a very large, strange spider in it. Didn't have bug spray so I grabbed some kid of cleaning foam and blasted the daylights out of it. It fell off the web, still moving. As I stomped on it I was yelling at the top of my lungs "Die, DIE, you *****!!!!!@@@@@!!!!!. I lived in townhouses at the time that were all connected. Nobody even poked their heads out to see what was going on. I guess it's fortunate that nobody called the police either but that in itself was worrisome when I thought about it later.

Load More Replies...How Can Traditional Media Compete With These Offbeat News Headlines?
It is understandable why even traditional news outlets would want to sensationalize their titles to get more clicks, but that’s how we end up with the worst newspaper headlines. They shouldn’t stray too far from their goals just to grab attention. Scacco and Muddiman note that some of the functions headlines can serve are “story summarization, interest generation, immediacy satisfaction, and attention direction.”
If the title has summarized the story, readers will click or continue to read if they’re interested in what happened. If a source wants to generate interest in a story, they should avoid using “flat headlines” and get creative. Using puns, wordplay, alliterations, or other literary devices can be a great way to build interest. A flashy headline can also be paired with photos or multimedia elements to attract viewers.

This Podcast Covers Strange News Stories
To learn more about odd news, we contacted Scotty Horsman, the host of the ‘What a Weird Week’ podcast. First, we wanted to know what inspired Scotty to start such an unusual show centered around weird news.
“Fame and fortune, of course,” he told Bored Panda jokingly. “But also, my podcast is basically a ripoff of the old and wonderfully weird ‘Ripley’s Believe or Not’ radio feature. Did I say ripoff? I meant an homage. Oops.” Whatever he wants to call it, it’s certainly entertaining! His show highlights the funny TV news headlines and newspaper stories that you can't believe were published. Some are about events like mystery moon crashes, grilled cheese sandwich art, and Mariah Carey being sued for song thievery.
Why Are People So Captivated by Strange News?
“It’s terrific when you hear a story that seems absolutely bonkers and find yourself thinking—I guess anything’s possible!” he told Bored Panda.
How Does He Decide What to Feature on the Podcast?
He has a few requirements for the news stories he shares with listeners—not too saucy, not too deep, and interesting enough to tell his wife about at the supper table. When it comes to where he finds these weird news stories to share, he told us that they come from many sources. “But if you only had Twitter and Reddit, you’d have enough content for decades,” he added.
What Are His Favorite Topics to Discuss on the Show?
“I love all the weird food stories,” he shared. “When a restaurant chain introduces a fried chicken wine, that’s making the show for sure! Imagine the team of marketers who sat around tweaking that idea.” Scotty added that this may not have happened yet, but he expects it any day now.

In fairness, we didn't believe the sister stole the book, and I assumed it was just misplaced. When my daughter got into bed that night, the book was under her pillow. Where she had placed it, so her sister wouldn't see it.

Today, whilst reading a story on the popular internet site, “Bored Panda,” a man thought the story was going to be funny but upon reaching the end discovered that it was not.

I completely agree. I absolutely can not be responsible for anything that I do if/ when I should become covered in spiders. All logic and humility goes out the window in that instance, lol 😆.

Where I live people often go through the bins for returnable bottles. These are usually people whose income is not enough to live on. That was my first thought when I read that headline, so I find the picture with those young men pointing at the poor guy and obviously enjoying themselves quite repulsive.

Exactly. Getting stuck like that could happen to anyone, except the people laughing have not been that poor to have to search trash bins, so they make fun of that guy

I am missing a recent German headline about the man who whacked a woman with a dead seagull, exposed himself and then tried to escape police by swimming across a lake.

I forgot to add that he kicked her dog and that the police came in legion, inculding a helicopter. Talking about escalation...

Supermarket car parks are full of scandal, I saw someone park in the parent and child bay, but it was just two adult women.
Living Example 3 years ago
Entitled pricks! I rarely go to the store because I use a cane and walking is pretty painful, but I always put the cart in the rack. It's like an unwritten social contract. I want all shopping carts on radio control so the employee whose turn it is to police the lot can repeatedly ram the customer's abandoned cart into their car. But really, have you notice that there are no cart return racks anywhere near the handicap spots? It does me no good to park close to the store if I have to walk half the length of the parking lot to return the cart. Thank You. Carry on.

I lost the clipping in a fire, but my absolute favorite story was in our local newspaper sometime in the late ‘90s. It told the story of a man taken to the ER after shooting himself in the foot. Not once. Three times, with 3 different guns, same foot. He said he’d been cleaning his .22 when it discharged into his foot. He said it “stung”. But, he kept on and started to clean his .38. It fired into the same foot. That one “kind of hurt”, so he took a bit of a break before starting to clean his .45. THAT one hurt badly enough he called 911. He swore to the responding officers that he thought they were unloaded. The final sentence in the article noted dryly that “Police said they believed that alcohol consumption may have played a part.” . . . Gee, I wonder whatever gave them that idea.
