This was in the paper around 10 days back but I just read about it on “Traveler’s Random Mental Wanderings & Contemplations”
A man was taken to the Psychiatric Hospital after coastguards plucked him out of the sea where he had been, reportedly, looking for mermaid. Coastguards reported to the scene, near the Messilah Beach, following reports of a man walking into the sea with his clothes on in what passersby thought was a suicide attempt. After the man was located and rescued, he told officers that he was simply looking for a mermaid he believes to be in the area. After failing to convince the adamant man out of his plans, the officers offered to help him go to another beach and search for mermaids there. Their ploy worked and they instead escorted the man to the mental facility.
Pretty strange and funny. Anyway check out “Traveler’s Random Mental Wanderings & Contemplations”, I just started reading it awhile ago and so far I find the guy really entertaining to read. [Link]

Oh give the man a break, he’s just trying to get a tear drop for the fountain of youth.

ppl’s problems aren’t funny.
very true. its quite dickish to think of it as funny!
This had come on Kuwait Times https://news.kuwaittimes.net/2012/05/29/mermaid-hunter-at-messilah-beach/
Conversation between Mermaid hunter and security personal on way to loony bin…
Aarghh Shiver me timbers..she is out there I tell ya.. she is… deep in the cold oil filled sea.. waiting to offer her riches to you… You may end up smelling fish and eating sea weed but hey at least you get to do it with a mermaid.
Well you wouldn’t really do it… Fish tend to lay eggs first while the male comes along and inseminates them after they have been laid. At best you’d get the third base with a mermaid.
Well the Parliament is going out the door for the eighth time – hang it up Kuwait! Every other GCC nation runs fine without one.
Totally crazy people are awesome. I wish we had more of them here in Kuwait instead of the boring crazy religious or insane political ppl etc. There’s more to life than organized lameness.
Yeah I’m sure they enjoy it too!
/sarcasm
There’s more to life than acting like people who are mentally ill exist for your entertainment.
Some of them do actually. I know some mentally handicapped people that are enjoying their lives.
The term crazy is relative, they just perceive the world differently and sometimes wonderfully better than we ever could.
i once saw a woman coming out of the water with a shiny black cloak thing on. Scared the shit out of at first but then I realized it was one of those islamic swimsuits.
@ Tweet that is funny.. maybe I can write a mash up Horror/Comedy based on your experience and name it She wore a Black Burkini!!
TweeZ. Burkinis my friend Burkinis..
Shit I’d be scared too if I saw something like that emerge from the water. I would high tail it out of there thinking it was the an invasion of the Sea Banashee’s
Come to think of it sounds like a nice title to a sci-fi/horror novel..
“Ladies In Black! they came from the SEA!!”
@ Nerdcore thanks for the Bio lesson.. lol
Doesnt matter though Strip Show/Mermaid show either scenario you let go and you are done.
Only diff is in scenario 1 is that the worse that can happen is you end up with a huge ass stain and you need a clean up.In the 2nd cenario worse case scenario is that you end up paying child support.
What if Mermaids are real!!! and the guy was saying the truth..
Everybody stopped watching movies??? 😮
