Ass chewing starts fight

A donkey at an Algerian market ate the money of a man who came to buy him, making the unfortunate buyer and the owner wonder who the animal belongs to, an Algerian newspaper reported.

Neither the district court nor the city court was able to make a ruling that would satisfy both parties, so the case was passed on to the Algerian Supreme Court.

All kidding aside, this was the punishment for thieves in times long past. Given the islamic rules related to relieving onesself, can you imagine what a pain in the a$$ it would be come time to take a $hit? I'd rather die.
