Apparently veterans find the idea offensive because it detracts from their ability to woo hot young poon-tang: "Somebody else wearing a medal and they didn't earn it — that's defrauding people who've earned it," said George Sakato, 84, who received the medal for his acts of bravery during the Second World War.

...that in an effort to combat eating disorders, Israel is passing a law to make models adhere to a minimum BMI:

...that apparently if you're not smart enough, Americans won't kill you...
Well, now you do.
