13 News Items We Can Only Assume Were The Result Of A Glitch In The Matrix

Ah, the 21st century, a time of technological advancement, political upheaval, and, of course, a plethora of ridiculous stories that make us all wonder what on Earth is going on. From Marjorie Taylor Greene's unconstitutional voter suppression to Chad Johnson's frugal living scheme, it's clear that the world is full of surprises.

We can't help but be amazed at the sheer absurdity of some of the stories we hear. Take Texas, for example, where the punishment for vaping hemp is harsher than for possessing marijuana.

And then there's the UK's environment secretary, who suggests that people should eat turnips instead of tomatoes during shortages.
