Qatar Officially Has Too Much Money
Topic: Stupidity

The small country of Qatar is notorious not for being in Latin America, as 80 percent of the world thinks, but for having more money than Jesus. Qatar is the number one provider of natural gas in the world, meaning that every time you turn on your stove, a sheik lights a cigarette with a Chinese orphan, just because they "burn so cleanly."

But today, a Qatari man just proved that his country bought everything, as he purchased the rights to obtain the phone number 666-6666 at auction for $2.75 million American dollars. For a goddamn phone number.

Okay, yes, it was for charity, but it's still a phone number. And besides, who do you think we're going to call now and beg for money? Not our parents or our attorney brother. Nope. This dude. Because he just paid 2.75 million bucks for a phone number. He can afford to send us a 20 spot.
