Let’s take a break from all the SEA Games news and dive in the world of weird news! Here’s our weekly roundup of all things weird.
Wild Pig
In Greece, a wild pig disrupted a live broadcast when it chased the news team out of nowhere. The anchorman got a surprise when a huge pig started to ram against him. The live broadcast had to be stopped as the pig continued to chase the poor reporter.
What made the pig so mad?
Instagram Suspension
Instagram is starting to suspend the accounts of porn stars and they’re not happy about it. 1,300 porn star Instagram accounts have been suspended, as they broke Instagram’s community guidelines on nudity and sexual content. The porn stars, however, said that they were being treated unfairly because other users post similar pictures but aren’t suspended from the social networking site.
Re-gifting
A mother is being called out after telling Reddit that she wanted to re-gift the iPads she confiscated from her kids. A commenter on her post said that instead of re-gifting the tablets she should just give them back, while another comment said that if her kids were being naughty, she should just scold them instead of taking away their gadgets.
Guess that mom really likes to recycle…
Bacon Out of Here
After letting her mother stay with her, a vegan woman was shocked when she found her mother cooking bacon at her house. The daughter then kicked her mother out of the house. We aren’t sure if mother and daughter are on speaking terms, but we’re betting they’re not.
Star Wars Instapots
Starwars fan rejoice! Williams Sonoma is selling Star Wars-themed Instapots that is a perfect addition to every wannabe jedi’s kitchen.
The Force is strong with these instapots.
Poop Thrower

Surgeons from India have removed a kidney weighing 7.4 kilograms. The 56-year-old patient is said to be suffering from autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. To date, the kidney removed from the man is the third heaviest kidney removed from a human.
Frozen Dog
We now have some news on the 18,000 year old #wolf or #dog puppy.
Genome analyses shows it’s a male. So we asked our Russian colleagues to name it…
Thus, the name of the puppy is Dogor!
Dogor is a Yakutian word for “friend”, which seems very suitable. pic.twitter.com/epIz8mEpVW
