they won’t interest you what the cap and
last night welcome to watchmojo.com and
this is the dispatch where we give you
three cool funny or weird news stories
from the previous week of human
existence Oh a might wanna this is our
last episode damn straight it is so

tell you how much I’m gonna enjoy
watching you make a complete ass of
yourself number three the hangover
hospital okay buddy no I am in so much
pain right now a greasy breakfast
Netflix binge a jumbo water bottle and a
handful of advils sure they’ll keep away
your standard hangover but what about
those head splitters an invention that
smells of Millennials hangover clinics
are popping up in Australia and the US
with names like Hangover Heaven if after
the after party is unbearable be
prepared to shell out upwards of two
hundred dollars to receive premium
intravenous treatments oxygen therapy
and a vitamin cocktail I needed the
treatment because I’m being married at
three o’clock
for horrible these methods are big jump
from standard hangover escapes like
eating and drinking water the night
before or you know not taking those
extra road beers with you 13 beers to go
Felicia critics of the service say that
these quick fixes will just encourage
the behaviors that create the problem
according to dr. George khoob of the
National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and
Alcoholism the best method is just to
avoid binge drinking entirely you’re
drunk Jules yeah I’m actually I’m not
drunk at all I don’t even drink I would
certainly cut down on hangovers as well
as viral vids like this yeah number two
castaway cannibal whoa whoa what would
be worse losing a friend to dehydration
will strand it out to sea or getting
accused of eating his emaciated corpse
just some things you gotta do don’t mean
you have to like it it’s the morbid
question faced by salvador alvarenga a
36 year old salvadorian man who spent 14
months adrift in 2012 after a storm
pushed a small fishing boat out to sea
just off the coast of Mexico nothing I
didn’t think I was going to die I always
thought I was going to make it out alive
I told myself I had to remain strong mr.
alvarenga and his fishing partner
Ezekiel Cordoba survived for some time
by drinking turtle blood and catching
fish but Cordoba ended up dying his body
being thrown overboard by mr. alvarenga
a book chronicling the castaways year
long struggle was launched last week and
only days later a lawsuit was filed by
the family of mr. Cordoba accusing
alvarenga of cannibalism and demanding a
million dollars in compensation as a man
accustomed to eating raw fish and turtle
meat this would certainly be mr. Alvarez
most expensive meal ever not that we’re
saying is true well exactly we’ll never
know number one DIY r2d2 oh
d2 it is it is you for those of you that
are skipping the monumental release of
alvin and the chipmunks road chip
survive proven and offering for
something called star wars the force
awakens instead I have it this is the
droid you’re looking for ah ah say hello
to our trudeau a fully functional flying
version of everyone’s favorite star wars
droid artoo-detoo the brainchild of
aerial cinematographer Don melara this
droid / drone hybrid stole the show at
the International drone Expo last week
and features an articulating head LED
lights and a speaker that emits r2 d2’s
trademark whistles and beeps according
to milara the droid represents a
childhood dream of his brought to life
thanks to modern technology and a
passion for aviation
we have to say though does look somewhat
smaller in stature compared to the real
thing scream better keep an eye on him
