Russia. Post office. Package. Strange ticking noise. If you’re guessing the next word or phrase in this sequence is “bomb squad,” you win.

Fortunately, the package turned out to contain a vibrator. The sex toy, police said, somehow got turned on by accident. The incident took place at Petrozavodsk in the republic of Karelia.

Vibrators make ticking noises? We thought it was more of a hum or buzzing sound, you know? There was no mention of a brand name or whether the package ever reached its intended destination.
