This Week in WTF, August 30, 2013

– Proving once again that the lives of obscenely rich New Yorkers are a complete mystery to me, people are paying $1,500 per square foot for basement storage space in a fancy high-rise under construction. Considering the $300,000 price tag for a 200 square foot space is less than 1% of the cost of some of the building’s units, it’s a relative bargain. Of course, if Bane ever takes over Manhattan, I don’t want to be anywhere near this building.

This happened:

At least one million cockroaches have escaped a farm in China where they were being bred for use in traditional medicine, a report said.

Commence heebie-jeebies.

– That Video Music Awards thing. Now let us never speak of it again.
