toy gun robberyI know what you’re thinking. “Did he fire six squirts or only five?” Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a Super Soaker XXP, the most powerful water gun in the world, and would make your hair more moist that SpongeBob SquarePants getting a Shiatzu massage, you’ve got to ask yourself a question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

VIENNA, Austria (Ananova.com) — A struggling Austrian toyshop owner was arrested after he tried to rob a bank with one of his toy guns.

The 44-year-old, from Vienna, stormed into a local bank with a stocking over his head and a gun in his hand, and demanded clerks empty their tills.

The security guard realized the gun was a water pistol, walked over to him and asked him to hand the toy to him. The gunman opened fired, and the guard was rushed to the hospital with third-degree pruned fingers.

The toy shop owner, who was not identified, said his business closed up shop and he was desperate. Man, times have been tough on Santa since the elves got a union.

Police are calling it the saddest crime in the world since a starving orphan in England tried to hold up a bakery with his last crumpet.
