    The Museum of Icelandic Sorcery & Witchcraft houses the only known intact pair of necropants, a beyond-disturbing item popularly used for purposes of traditional magic in seventeenth century Iceland. To make your own (and thus reap good fortune), strike a deal with a friend than whoever dies first will allow the other wear the lower half of their corpse as a pair of pants, day and night:

    If you want to make your own necropants (literally; nábrók) you have to get permission from a living man to use his skin after his death.

    After he has been buried you must dig up his body and flay the skin of the corpse in one piece from the waist down. As soon as you step into the pants they will stick to your own skin.

    A coin must be stolen from a poor widow and placed in the scrotum along with the magical sign, nábrókarstafur, written on a piece of paper. Consequently the coin will draw money into the scrotum so it will never be empty, as long as the original coin is not removed.

    To ensure salvation the owner has to convince someone else to overtake the pants and step into each leg as soon as he gets out of it. The necropants will thus keep the money-gathering nature for generations.

  • Russel Brand used to kinda just bother me because I assumed he was so full of himself. Over the past six months he has made me laugh and appreciate the eccentric value he has.. But then he won me over with some real talk.

    I had a similar experience when stumbling on a radio interview with rapper Riff Raff. His responses to being labelled as a joke white rapper/over all imbecile etc. were shockingly well spoken.

    Casting judgment based on ignorance, an age old tradition.

    Is it wrong that it took three times of watching this man talk before I saw the guy in the background? I was seriously confused by what I was supposed to look for...
