Ha!

Jun Fan is either Bruce Lee or his instructor. I forget which. (Used to work with someone who was really into wing chun).

By coincidence, this comes up today:

You'd think the Mail would be grateful for tighter controls given that prime example of Hack Slack that Bairy pointed out.

My mum's got one of those in Yorkshire! It's a fantastic old thing. Far better than the new one we've got here.

My mate got them again.

The story is EastEnders star Samantha Janus to marry long-term love. I won't link it cos they'll correct it. And I can't be arsed to screenshot it.



The Sun also did it



She was actually married to Mauro Mantovani.


So there you go. If you want to get into the Mail, edit Wiki.

This could have gone into the Non-Story thread

India to launch world's cheapest laptop... for £7.25

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/ ... -7-25.html

The final paragraph reveals:



No speculation, it was a mistranslation of $100 to $10.

The thing is, to produce a laptop for £70 is in itself a remarkable and newsworthy achievement.

I have a very epic mail fail. Very very epic.

Here's the info thread: http://www.b3ta.com/links/Ive_just_goat ... Daily_Mail (safe for work)

Now if you don't know what Goatse is then you haven't been on the net long enough: it's a shock image of a man his rear end rather wide, like could have a baby out of it wide, yes it's really quite gross.

So as you can see by the thread, the Mail hotlinked an image directly from b3ta, again and I would imagine didn't give credit since they don't normally.

So the guy goatse'd them. It's gone now obviously, but there's a video in .3gp format which I think you need a decent video player (i.e. not windows media player) as proof, and he really honestly did goatse the Mail.

Awe-fucking-some!

Fucking 'ave that you thieving shitbags


For the curious, this is what the image was supposed to be, that the Mail linked to: http://www.b3ta.com/board/9124192 (also SFW, but don't scroll down)

Brilliant. works in Quick Time.
Would love to know how many clicked the link before the Fail took it down!
Made my day.

Trying to view all comments on here http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... pride.html

First try... "Error"

Second try... a massive error message.

But it works now

I tried to get into one story (about the cops arresting someone dressed up as a cowboy) only to find that the site insisted that I download Hebrew fonts before it would be permitted. I scent an anti-Palestinian plot.

Is it just me that gets an empty page (apart from the usual sidebar) on clicking on the Most Read link?

Yup it's screwed

There's a run on the £

They'll fix it eventually but it makes them look stupid for a bit as the ? could be quite apt for any figures used in the rag.

From the article about Wiki, not particularly epic, but reasonably ironic:

They seem to have given up totally on the entire comments function at the moment. Perhaps its collapsed under the weight of the rubbish they have to deal with. Or it could be a disgraceful left-wing fascist nuliebore stasi plot to prevent Big Dave, Jackie Weems and others from promulgating their moderate views.
