Roller Coaster Ride From Hell
I'm one tough cookie when it comes to extreme roller coasters, but I'd definitely end up with my head in the nearest trash can after exiting this ride. I counted 100+ revolutions and these buckled-in nut jobs were clapping at the end! Where's the "performed on a closed course by (roller coaster riding) professionals" disclaimer?
"Fun House" Lives Up To Its Name
Or not. The following woman didn't know what she had coming when she entered this attraction at a local carnival. I always thought the name "fun house" was blatantly ironic (tell me, who's amused by looking at distorted reflections of themselves?), but now I know that's the case.

Instant Carnival Ride
These construction workers gotta get their jollies somewhere, and if it means fewer catcalls to womankind, I'm all for this alternative entertainment! I just wouldn't want to be the employer paying or insuring them. (Thanks, eBaums World!)
Oh Snap! Fashion Blooms in Indonesia
A model showcased a flowery design yesterday, during the Jember Fashion Carnival in Jember, Indonesia. More than 400 models will parade down the city's longest street, celebrating culture and alternative fashion. World unity is the theme of this year's festival.
Girl Crush du Jour: Kristen Stewart
In addition to being the vampire crush Bella in Twilight (you've heard of that movie, right?), Stewart played a troubled-but-sensitive carnival worker in Adventureland and as badass rock star icon Joan Jett in the upcoming The Runaways. I love her laid back style and that she doesn't seem to take her fame all that seriously.

Boo, I'm Osama bin Laden? Are Certain Costumes Off-Limits?
While it may be a bit until Halloween, all those "Spirit Stores" are popping up selling costumes already, and they made this story jump out at me. This week a senior British police officer found himself in hot water over his choice of costume for the local carnival parade. He's been advising the Afghan government on counter-terrorism, so I suppose he thought his costume was true to the theme: he showed up dressed as Osama bin Laden.
It's Not How You Feel on the Rides — Fairs Are Going Green!
Ah, state fair season! I can still feel the bruises on my forearms from scooping ice cream at mine when I was in high school. Though they're good old fashioned fun, fairs are kind of a suck on the planet.
