And then, because life likes a twist, we go down a rabbit hole about a viral Facebook post claiming a Missouri museum spent fifty years accidentally displaying a dead bloke as a wax figure. Spoiler: it’s bollocks. But the real story it’s based on? That one's even stranger. Anyway, it’s Carl vs Reality again — me vs the nonsense of daily life, the internet, and my own decision-making after three pints.</p>","author_name":"Carl Guyton"}
