Once upon a time in Germany, a 74 year old man and a 35 year old woman were in a crowded grocery store. Due to the high volume of patrons, there were not enough grocery carts to go around. Both the old man and the woman spotted a cart that was not in use. They both grabbed it. The old man was able to wrench it away from the woman.
Unbeknownst to him, the woman was shopping with her 24 year old brother. Enraged that his sister was robbed of a cart that was rightfully hers, the brother proceeded to punch the old man in the face, and make off with the cart in question.
That is when things began to spiral out of control.
The old man, not content to simply wait for another cart, or call the police because he just got punched in the face, instead followed the siblings to the cheese counter. Grabbing a large salami, the old man proceeded to crank the younger man over the head with it. The sister, startled and fearing for her safety, grabbed a four pound block of parmesean cheese and proceeded to use the sharp end to stab at the assailant. The old man, undeterred by the cheese being waved in his direction, pushed the girl into the cheese counter on which she cracked her head.
The police soon arrived to break up the brawl. Two of those involved were taken the hospital for treatment.
The shopping cart was unharmed.
So couchers, what's the weirdest weapon you've ever seen wielded?
Thanks to The Telegraph for the
story.

I don't use weapons. I always use my bare knuckles, like real men do.
Same as Reckless, bare knuckles.
I'm surprise no one was charged.
I don't know but since the man was 74, I would have never punched him... maybe it's because I"m a girl, but I don't think I would even if I were male.
Oh, so we risk our lives for a cart now? tsk tsk.
I'm a lover, not a fighter!
Sickle, double edged sword, wave dagger, shuriken (throwing stars), crossbow, etc... all part of my martial arts training. Nothing much.
Crazy Germans. Hahahaha.
There's nothing like being beaten with a phallic symbol to make one feel special.
I read an article about a woman who used her month old baby to beat her boyfriend. Fucked up, eh? The baby died, I think.
The Germans seem to have a propensity for engaging in violence when it comes to taking things from other people.
Not coincidentally, while living in that very country, I had to use a stale McChicken sandwich just outside of a McDonald's to defend myself from a drunk fraulein. Apparently, I was the last order since it was around 3AM and she got nichts. So she tried to steal my fast food. I turned one of the two sandwiches I had into a projectile and became, I'm sure, the first and only person ever to lay out another with a McChicken sandwich.
I'm an eater, not a fighter.
My weapon of choice would and will always be an ice cream scoop. Just think about it. How painful would it be to dig someone's heart out with one of those bitches?! =p
*Ahem* I mean, I'm a lover not a fighter!
@LauraG0929@xanga - screw the heart! go for the eyes to prolong the pain!
That was intense.
Gangsta.
What a waste of food. Foodies, take note.
i wish i saw that in real life.
The old guy wouldn't just surrender the cart to the lady? What happened to common courtesy? And wow, that a young guy would punch an old man... What happened to respect for elders?
That said, that's a very fit old man.
I fucking love Germans.
I have a crowbar under my car seat that has been used only once, and that was only because it was me against three assholes from school. Fortunately, it only took two swings before they got the message.
As for the weirdest weapon, my brother has this barbarian thing in his car that is largely made out of a baseball bat with a lead core and several rusty nails. Before you judge us, let me just say this: we used to live in Detroit.
I've been known to scream pretty well...kidding
hahaha Oh man..
Food fight.
Never been in a fight, I have too much class for that nonsense. The story was funny, too bad everyone got hurt.
Wow
LOLOLOL.
this brings food fights to a whole new level
