Did ABC 2 News ever return? Did the fire get put out? Tune in next time to find out!

First there was the lemonade stand in Georgia that got busted last month, now this. So much for encouraging small business.

In a fascinating case of WTF, this news channel's weather report graphic began with a few frames depicting what can only be described as some sort of odd demon man. I mean, I've heard the weather term "hot as hell," but this is pushing it!

Worst office dance party ever. Also, while it's nice for Foxconn to imply "none of you will ever ever get laid off just because we're having robots do your jobs instead," does it really work that way? When you're moving "higher up the value chain," usually that implies more training or education. Are you really going to train over a million workers, Foxconn? Terrible working conditions suck, but so does getting laid off of a job that you were desperate enough to hang on to.

I guess the moral is that when you complain you're being treated like robots, consider whether or not you could be a robot and still be capable of doing your job.

If you're having trouble, the flight attendant's announcement was "The captain cannot take off when we have ice on the wings, and we don't want to die."

Passenger Ella Ryan, posted to Instagram her account of the chaotic travel delays, "This is what happens when you've been delayed almost 8 hours, everyone's at a lost including staff 'we don't want to die' absolute mayhem. All hell was breaking loose when a member of staff made this outrageous announcement."



She also revealed passengers were "continuously receiving inconsistent reasons for the delay" and were only given a £3.50 ($7.20) voucher. You'd think after 8 hours they'd get a full refund.



The discount airline Ryanair responded with only a statement of, "We will be speaking to the crew member involved and apologize for the regrettable comment she made in the heat of the moment".
