oh, there are so many...

"Man, the terrorists win at everything"

"Delivery driver's grandmother dies for the third time" (the picture featured an actual delivery driver i worked with)

my favorite article, the headline was something like "Hundreds Killed in Nightclub Blaze," includes the line, "everyone just kept dancing and shouting, 'The roof! The roof! The roof is on fire! We don't need no water! Let the motherfucker burn!'"

Yeah, that one is stone cold. I remember a funny line about it being a tragedy with green and gold pumas scattered amongst the ashes.
