Here is a roundup of some of our favorite strange Internet stories that have surfaced this past week.
Nautical Names
Sure, some people have unique middle names, maybe a title that has been passed down through generations or something special to the family. However, a Massachusetts couple is changing their middle names to something a bit more strange: Seamonster.

It Takes a Tornado
A Tennessee town had the unfortunate experience of being hit with a twister. But there is a silver lining in the dark skies – the aftermath revealed a cache of stolen items by the already-imprisoned Jerrod Christian. Neighbors started noticing their once-lost possessions being sprawled about the town, all leading back to his place.

A Nude Awakening
In a tale straight out of the frat house, a New Mexico couple woke up to find a completely naked man on their couch in a deep sleep. Apparently, Freddy Shelby broke in, grabbed a Sprite from the fridge and made the place his own. Believe it or not, there was no mention of alcohol being a part of the event.
