Everyone mocked pineapple on pizza, but now plenty of people like it.  What are the odds THIS catches on?   A pizza place in Australia just divided the internet with its newest offering . . . ORANGES on pizza.  (???)   The place is called Bubba Pizza.  They have around 15 locations in Melbourne.  (They apparently added it to their menu a few months ago, but the Internet just heard.)   Their "Ham and Orange" pizza is basically a Hawaiian.  They just subbed out pineapple, and subbed in orange slices.  Yes, they're peeled.  (They say an Aussie rules footballer named Cooper [...]

Three religious paintings were stolen . . . including one with the Ten Commandments that actually said, "Thou Shalt Not Steal."   The works also included one with the Lord's Prayer . . . and they were all in big heavy wooden frames . . . so it isn't just like someone unknowingly moved them.   It’s unclear how much the pieces [...]
