Like, say, people who enjoy fishing for carp and reel women.
Now, a German company has released their annual pin-up calendar for carp fishing enthusiasts featuring attractive women posing with the ugly fish. It’s called the Carponizer and is described as a “must have” for carp aficionados.

And we’re assured that no carp were harmed during the photo shoot.
“Of course, it was also important to ensure that the enchanting human models felt as comfortable as possible in both wet and dry scenes,” a spokesman told the Daily Star.
“The impressive result of the photo shoot was 12 formidable and unmissable images. The photo shoots are very long because every picture has to be perfect.”

It seemed like a good idea. In his quest to be a God, Deeraj Kharol got villagers to help bury him.
HALLOWEEN PREVIEW: PART ONE
An Indian man was voluntarily buried for eight hours in his quest to be reborn as a God.
But instead of becoming a deity, local villagers just thought he was stupid.
Deeraj Kharol — who had been living in a temple in Rajasthan for several years — announced last week he was going for it. He would bury himself alive, attain salvation and be resurrected as a God three days later.
At first, cheers rang throughout the village for his efforts with everyone chipping in to dig his hole. And last week, he was buried as crowds gathered and began worshipping.
But local cops didn’t see his hereafter hi-jinks as a good idea and dug him out despite the efforts of villagers to thwart them, The Times of India reports.

A SIDE OF HEAD WITH THAT TACO!
A Texas couple was busted at a Mexican restaurant after patrons spotted the man getting a side dish of oral sex in front of shocked diners.
According to The Smoking Gun, both the receiver and the giver, Jonathan Hightower, 32, and Lashanda Fisher, 29, have pleaded guilty to public lewdness.
The aghast manager of Baby Acapulco told police the pair “engaged in oral sex at a booth inside the business in front of customers.”
Tacos. Not exactly as shown.
One witness said: “[She] observed the female suspect giving oral sex to the male suspect. [Her] head was bobbing up and down towards the male suspect’s groin for about five minutes.”

HALLOWEEN: PART TWO
A shuttered Detroit funeral home offered up an October surprise for workers: A slew of bodies.
According to the Detroit News, 11 infants — including 10 fetuses — were discovered last week in the remains of the Cantrell Funeral Home. That brings the macabre total to 38 since April.
“My construction workers found the remains in the basement,” said Naveed Syed, who purchased the building with the intent on turning it into a community centre. “They were all in individual containers with the person’s name on the container.”
The funeral home was closed in April when decomposing bodies were discovered. The owner and undertaker claim they were unaware.
