In my mailbox...My arrest warrant from the Dutch police.

I found the Cunt Coloring Book from the 1970's. Yes, scanned in as PDF. Yes, a few pages were already colored in, mostly psychedelic colors though.

And yes, it's exactly what it sounds like, a bunch of hand drawn lady parts to be colored in.

I find this segment to be particularly insightful:

The technical plans for the Death Star.

A copy of Man after Man:

This is such a weird book. It has leech people, underwater people, blind psychic baby people, meat mountain people, etc.

"Countries where suicide is outlawed.pdf"

This feels pretty niche...

I have the working draft of this year's List of Items for the Official University of Chicago Official Scavenger Hunt, the world's largest -and probably weirdest- annual scavenger hunt.

A key to mushrooms that grow on other mushrooms

The Death report for Kurt Cobain. Mostly from morbid curiosity and a love for Nirvana. I don’t do that for everyone or anything like that. That’s the weirdest one. 😅

Let's see, The CIA's Simple Sabotage Field Manual, some paper on MKultra, some paper about The Hum, Some scientific paper on the longevity of recordable optical media, and a paper about crows.

Depends on your weird.

I write, so there's a ton of stuff on decomposition, forensics, and related subject matter that are weird by some standards.

I've got stuff on niche mythology too, for the same reason. Along with that is stuff on modern paganism, syncretic religions, and related subjects. Again, weird by some standards.

But I tend to think the morbid stuff is what would catch most people by surprise.

My mom's death certificate. That's weird.

I just cleaned up my downloads so I no longer have it, but a couple weeks ago it was a copy of Maid: The Role-Playing Game

Mine is this report by the central bank where they tested the insurance sector at-large for resillience to financial shocks. ^(Although after reading some books by nassim nicholas taleb, I realize that testing using the worst imaginable shocks isn't sufficient as black swan events are by their nature unpredictable)

Pdf version of doom from hackernews not so long ago.

CIA sabotage handbook.

Guidelines for a Space Propulsion Device Based on Heim’s Quantum Theory

I thought it sounded interesting, but the mathematics was beyond me.

A mock dictionary of Portuguese gay slang and vocabulary. It's pretty fun.

The Airplane Flying Handbook, I guess.

The Bible 2.0

An older text, reinterpreted by Meaty McMeat.

Hmm, it probably depends what you think is weird, but I have one in their on the feasibility of extracting ammonia from biomass. There's also one on early steam turbines by a fellow named Geoff Horseman, which is a fun name.

Edit: Oh, I also have a professional critique of my dating profile photos. That's weird in a different way, since I actually got that done, and it unexpectedly came as a PDF.

Probably Grontar: The Frutang, circa 2003.

I think if i dig through my records I can find a federal subpoena from 2016. A LEO had to formally come to my door to confirm I received it but the prosecutor sent it to me via email.

Hercolobus Or Red Planet, by V. M. Rabolou... it's 'interesting'.
