Hugh Jackman speaks of Wolverine leak heartbreak

speaking of crimes...

the fact that Hugh Jackman was able to talk about the quality of the downloaded film implies that he downloaded it.

if he is not the owner of the film's copyright, then he has been stealing.

if he /is/ the owner and downloaded from a torrent, then by doing so, he has also been uploading to other downloaders.

Doner kebabs: Death wrapped in pitta bread

women's daily requirements?

I wonder why are these numbers measured relative to women's daily requirements - whenever I think of someone going for a kebab, it's usually someone male.

Or maybe it's for shock value? Why not recalculate the numbers with children's daily requirements instead! Or a kitten's - that would make the numbers even bigger!

charge for a donation?

This guy should look up the definition of "donation". You can't give someone something and then say years later that you want payment for it.

It's even worse than the "this is my ball and I'm going home with it" thing - it's like "this ball, which I gave to you years ago, was originally mine, and I'm going home with it".

I think the girl could've arranged to have the divorce papers given to him at a less life-saving time, but that's no reason to be a big baby about it.
