Do you ever click on a news story purely because of the headline? Well then I think you will appreciate this gem from the Subeditorial Antics Appreciation Society.
See, when you're scrolling through the front page of a news site, a headline like this just jumps out at you. Who knows what went down at that circus. Was it an especially terrifying clown like the pointy-toothed one out of Stephen King's It? Was there a Siegfried and Roy-esque mishap involving a tiger?
As it turned out the seating just collapsed. And let me gently suggest to his litigious parents that perhaps the now seven-year-old is actually suffering from persistent nightmares and headaches due to the birth defect of having been named Siar Tauri. Poor little chap sounds like a character from Stargate SG-1.
