The Most Memorable Troll Yet

Image
If you woke up this morning prepared to have your childhood ruined in one fell swoop, then boy, are you in luck!  Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory , a beloved children's book and film, has been hiding the most sordid of euphemisms this entire time. In the famed scene where Wonka shows the children and their guardians his latest invention, lickable wallpaper, the eccentric candymaker invites them to sample the wallpaper for themselves. As his guests proceed to lick the various flavors, he famously touts: "Lick an orange. It tastes like an orange. The strawberries taste like strawberries! The snozzberries taste like snozzberries!" We all giggle at the reference to "snozzberries," and as kids, we assumed it was an innocuous made-up word for some sort of awesome, delicious fruit. Turns out, the book's author, Roald Dahl, had a sick sense of humor and snozzberries have been dicks all along. Yes, snozzberries are dicks, and Charlie and his grandpa w...

How Love is Like A Rainbow

There's a decent part of me that still believes, eventually, everyone is able to find their pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

Courtesy Photo From law enforcement, to news stations, Casper's Finest Drivers , a Facebook group where members report the issues they see on the road and in parking lots, is helping raise awareness of troublesome drivers. Some have learned the hard way to behave while on the road, others just don't get it. KCWY News 13 in Casper is no stranger to being put on blast for employees  bad parking. They also have a history of failing to handle criticism in the most professional manner. Today, they have once again been caught failing to respect Handicapped Parking Only signs. KCWY's Dean Johnson has previously reported on this subject . The police department has openly encouraged reporting of illegal parking in the past, and encourages people to call the non-emergency number at 307-235-8278, or file a report online at https://casperpolice.org/file-a-online-police-report/
