What did you do today? Did you get up out of bed? Did you kiss your partner goodbye? Did you shout at a jerk who held you up in traffic on the way to work? Whatever you’ve been up to, ask yourself this; how many of these things did you do because you wanted to, because you decided to? Let the mindblowing ensue.

The most obvious place to look for evidence of free will is of course the brain, because you’re not gonna find it in your ass are you? How would you define the concept of free will? Is it the ability to act independently of external forces? Let’s play Devil’s Advocate for a moment and say that free will does exist, and that even within the maelstrom of events, people and circumstances your brain has to cope with, that somehow it still manages to generate and process independent thought.If free will doesn’t exist, then why do we humans have consciousness at all if we’re nothing but slaves to our biological makeup?

The first legend on our list is one which has been used time and time again by every slasher movie ever. Every town has that one restaurant suspected of putting dog meat in the stew, and then you find out the owner’s wife has disappeared and you all have a good laugh about how he probably murdered her and dumped her in the pot too.In the early 2000’s one of the most unsettling urban legends was the story of an HIV-positive man who would leave needles of his infected blood on the seats in a movie theatre.When you settle down for a nice night’s sleep on the crisp linens of a hotel bed, you know it’s possible that your mattress may not be entirely fresh. Anyone who works in heavy industry will take extra care tomorrow after hearing the tragic story of 54 year old Alan Catterall. Are you a 90’s kid? Don’t worry, I’m not about to make you take some crappy Buzzfeed quiz about it, but if you are then you might remember those gruesome horror story chain letters that went around via email at the time. There’s an old Halloween tale of a grisly prank gone wrong that you may have heard before.

It’s intense and cryptic. Ever since we learnt how to draw, to carve, to daub and to write, mankind has used unknown, strange, unexplained, and mysterious symbols and logos for various purposes both good and evil. We investigate science’s current findings into ancient mysteries here.

The Jolly Roger is of course heavily associated with Pirates, with the combination of a white skull and crossbones on a black background used to indicate that the ship approaching you was full of men who wanted to steal your doubloons, drink your rum, and caress you ever so gently with their shiny hooked hands. The symbol of the three hares depicts three hares chasing each other in a circle, with each one having two ears, but with the three hares arranged so that only three individual ears need to be shown. Now hold on a minute, surely we’re stretching the limits of the word “ancient” here aren’t we? The Pinecone symbol is associated with many of Earth’s oldest and supposedly most enlightened civilizations, as pinecones themselves are meant to represent the Third Eye and the human Pineal Gland. Since its appropriation by a certain group of zero-chill Germans in the 20th Century, the Swastika has come to represent evil, death, intolerance and bigotry.
