Hell, you know what. You should turn that into an imgur image with the caption on the image. Add some official sounding sources on it that lead to nowhere in small text in a light color at the bottom. Make it like one of those "Fact" Twitters/Tumblrs, and see how far it goes.

Or better yet, make the source something that talks about false information on the web.

The reason this guy could do that, iirc, is that his body wouldn't scar over properly, and basically just close wounds internally.
Essentially, when he poked through himself, the hole inside of him wouldn't close, while his skin would heal over marginally. This allowed him to remember where to stab himself basically

Bicycle lane that's 1.95 meters long and 60 centimeters wide.
Because it doesn't have the right signs to be one you can probably attempt turning your car or motorbike there as it just counts as a bit of road.[/QUOTE]
This is fantastic. I wish the finnish local goverments would support cycling as much as the dutch ones.

Wait, I may have misunderstood this. Cars can't drive on the road that's on the right side, right?

They can, it's a normal road, only the reddish parts are for cycling. Drivers may get on the red to make room for oncoming cars but you're not supposed to drive on the red otherwise, although it's not technically illegal if there's no bicycle signal in the red like so.

This is nice and all but the Danish resistance fighters did some shit as well. Parading women who had had relationships with german soldiers through the streets for example.
Not that I'm judging them, but it kind idealises the whole situation. Reminds me of the myth that the king wore a Judenstern in solidarity, while in reality nothing like that happened.

They shaved french women who slept with german soldiers or collaborated with german soldiers after the allies took over France.
