A Woman Was Sent to a Psych Ward With $13,000 Medical Bills for Saying the President Follows Her on Twitter... and He Does
Somehow the story is even worse than that sounds.
Kam Brock, @Akilahbrock, was pulled over by New York police and her car impounded when officers suspected she was driving under the influence of marijuana (none was found in the vehicle). After getting upset with officers and undergoing a medical evaluation, doctors thought she was suffering from a mental disorder - thinking her claims of being followed by Barack Obama on Twitter were bunk.
The only problem is that Barack Obama DOES follow @AkilahBrock, and around 640,000 other people. And now Brock is faced with thousands in medical bills after being sent to a facility. She's now pursuing legal action as a result of these stupid, insane events.

Florida Man Beer: You Can Taste the Back of the Cop Car
Via Cigar City:
Cigar City Brewing in Tampa has decided to pay homage to the "world's worst superhero" with its new Florida Man Double IPA, currently available at its tasting room.
So far the response from customers has been positive, especially among those who like their beers "crazy hoppy," according to Cigar City Brewing marketing associate Russell Breslow. He says the beer has "a bright citrusy hop character" with notes of piney resin, apricot, peach, orange and lemon on a solid malt background.
The bottle pictures the same mugshot that's popularly recognized as the @_FloridaMan Twitter account profile picture. Cigar City did a little editing and substituted the marker streaks from the infamous mugshot with a pair of aviator-style sunglasses.

Warning: Beautiful smack talk in this video.
You know, sort of an "Odd Couple" thing. The Opossum is the slob, he's the uptight busybody. Together they can try and make dinners together, draw lines on the apartment floor, all the good stuff.
