    Tildes is a very serious site, where we discuss very serious matters like eulogies, ai overviews and gog. Tags culled from the highest voted topics from the last seven days, if anyone was beady-eyed.

    But one of my favourite tags happens to be offbeat! Taking its original inspiration from Sir Nils Olav III, this thread is looking for any far-fetched offbeat stories lurking in the newspapers. It may not deserve its own post, but it deserves a wider audience!

    Just a heads-up that gift links only last a month with The New York Times, so definitely worth keeping the archive link around.
