Wow, some of these really go off the rails but those that only kinda go off the rails are absolutely hilarious and/or bizarre.
A few summaries of ones that I looked at which appeared to be more or less staying on a single topic:
Sample 1: An Austin nonvegetarian vegetarian restaurant encounters a series of difficulties in opening, as its nonexistent but extensive menu depicts a wide range of food options and the restaurant opening is delayed by financial and food-safety concerns. The nonvegetarian restaurant has also annoyed vegetarian clientele with its plans to be a vegetarian restaurant. Food reviewers nonetheless manage to eat at the new restaurant and post their reviews; the establishment also becomes "the first Austin restaurant to ride a ride-sharing service in Austin since the 'Bike-Share — Share the Ride' controversy erupted".
Sample 3: Denise Schroeder encounters perhaps the most complex and confusing legal trial in American history as she gets murdered, is accused of murder, comes under investigation for liquor law violations, becomes an abuse victim, prompts others around her to commit suicide, is arrested, and ultimately wins the right to marry her same-sex partner.
Sample 6: Cooking rice and beans by steaming a roast in a wok is easy! Just follow these 40 simple steps to update your XBox firmware, and you'll end up with a nice fried soup.
Sample 8: A protest march against drought in South Asia attracts very broad support, but its radical nationalist message is simultaneous endorsed and feared by virtually everyone in the region.
Sample 13: The global bicycle industry, although very large, is perhaps unsurprisingly extraordinarily unpopular and economically irrelevant following a very complex cycling accident involving an area woman.
Sample 14: Indian restaurant owners in Canada have to contend with an amazing array of economic, technological, and environmental challenges as the infrastructure of their society seems to collapse around them -- but they do all right in the end.
Sample 26: The previously untold history of Blackwater USA, in which founder Erik Prince is capable of meeting Bill Clinton on a day in January that was actually in March, and results in Blackwater and Prince having shady dealings with all sorts of celebrities -- though the organization "may not like to admit what a true dick the injustice has wrought".
Sample 29: What does the KKK believe? Apparently, lots of complicated conspiracy theories about black history. Also, if you find their theories traumatic, you can find "several biblical [...] references that can be used to up your level of moral competency in your longterm relationship with Mr. Soros."
Sample 30: Wikileaks reports harshly on speculations of Linux adoption by rural tribal mobile device users.
Sample 37: faint praise for soccer champion who apparently keeps winning games through poor performance.
Sample 49 (following the end of the reviews section): world traveler and masterful hotel architect Frederick Beckey remains unperturbed by racist gatherings at his hotel.
Sample 50: comedians fear the looming resolution of a long-running comedian feud. Also, Soviet spectators at the Munich Olympics cheer Yuri Gagarin, who, although escorted by Russian soldiers, uses rockets and airplanes in his Olympic performances to win multiple medals. The crowd of Soviet spectators, "[l]argely composed of high school students in tight-fitting vacant uniforms [...] walked away believing that Gagarin was the next North America's greatest athlete".
- xiphias2 8y agoI'm looking forward to computers generating short clips from these stories. I wouldn't be surprised if some of them get viral (especially if A/B testing would be incorporated by looking at when the users stop watching the videos).

- airstrike 8y agoBlackwater USA was born January 21, 2003, when Blackwater founder Erik Prince met Bill Clinton in March of that year. In an email dated 08/28/99, Bill Clinton wrote to "Uncle Ray." Erik Prince was a small business owner and business leader. When Dagan tried to evict Blackwater USA from its Fort Carson, Colorado compound in January, 2000, the Iraq War began fourteen years ago. And my uncurent, signed-and-notarized correspondence with a Bill Clinton representative on October 27, 1999, speaks volumes about one's knowledge of the INC diamond and fronts and shields Brazilian cache testimonials in commissioning documents for the SCOUTS network. In other words, the INC was ALL OVER the party that night and very highly sensitive agreements between the same three foreign entities in Chicago on BLUESTAIR retail banks. Yes, I believe the whole "####BETTIN Powers intact." But it was Erik's trans-national connections through his vast buyout shops in the Far East that made him the savvy buyer in this slice of the Direct Foreign Investment biz. Erik of Bankers Trust and Investments was working to implement the political policy and campaign advice Bernie Madoff rejected, both of which ultimately cost Hilary collectors many millions. Global Information similar to the names today haven't changed in the frequency folder of Erik's UFLAC machine, as evinced by the statement "West Coast growth project." First members moved to Las Vegas and a quiet retreat in Mesa, Arizona came into existence titled Predius Group LLC <http://www.predius.com/> http://www.predius.com/> The massive Madison Avenue bank and hedge fund structure that devised illegal high rollers for such organizations as SS&XM 13/CCGB, Marc Rich and use of the old Puerto Rican nuclear smuggling routes from Santo Domingo continues, as deeply buried secrets leaked to me show that a master of legal portals exited from a long, multimillion compensation firm in Wisconsin for BP with a large bolillo-stuffed look like the federal prosecutor U.S. Grand Nomen Suisse makes to seem "human." One intelligence utility broke for their relative comfort in several layers of a "cheque factory/lobby/university." Blackwater USA may not like to admit what a true dick the injustice has wrought. What the rape of Alexandria, a slap in the face to the American public seems to belong able to early final order technology, esp. Skyjack Special Forces Weapons, at the price of just 3 million followed by a back-door, fired check into Hillary's back pocket allows us to view this sub rosa of tax-proof lottery economics as messy FleetMicrosoft. investors that bloom with sedition, all hands seem tied at the start.
