ParticipantOK, I usually don't make social topics, especially since they usually tend to get me in trouble (think: GameFaqs) but I just thought this was just too funny not to post…
So in yahoo, there's currently a news item with the title:
Jeremy Renner unscathed in bloody Thai bar brawl
And the story contains:
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) – "Mission: Impossible" star Jeremy Renner emerged unscathed from a bar fight in Thailand, his spokesman said on Thursday, but a hotel manager in his party was attacked with an ax.
A spokeswoman for Renner, 40, who also played the lead in Oscar-winning Iraq war movie "The Hurt Locker", denied media reports that the actor was hurt in the bloody incident in the Thai resort of Phuket early on Wednesday.
"Jeremy Renner was indeed in a bar in Phuket Thailand as a vicious attack on a patron took place but was not injured or involved. He exited as the fight took place," Renner's publicist said in a statement.
Which lead to a comment by:
Clayton Y
Very deceiving headline…when you read it, you think that he was involved in the fight. The guy just ducked out when the fight started! lol
and another comment by:
Cliff
"Entire Cast of 'Hurt Locker' Uninjured in Deadly Car Bombing"
The entire cast and crew of "Hurt Locker" managed to escape injury in a deadly car bombing in Baghdad, Iraq, early this morning, a spokesman for Jeremy Renner said. According to sources, none of the cast was in Iraq at the time of the explosion, although Yahoo received unconfirmed reports that Anthony Mackie was watching CNN later and burned his mouth on a breakfast burrito when he heard the news.
Which was hilarious… I could not stop laughing out loud… oh, and this one was funny too:
thor the mighty
Wise choice to exit before the violence… he obviously thought Phuket I'm out of here!
XD. I guess what really hit the funny bone for me was the fact that the yahoo news stories do this crap so often: They will use a title that is very alluring but very deceptive, just to get suckers to read their article. Then the media world wonders why people don't want to pay for their news anymore and print papers are dying…

ModeratorMy brother has been to Thailand when he was single (in the Air Force). He said you need to check the equipment if you're with a lovely looking lady. Some of them look hot but may have umm…extra equipment.
But on the bright side Thai women might want to hear about your DoaE hacking skillz!

ParticipantOK I'm a little confused now… when you say "Thai women" what equipment are you referring to? Because so far, my personal experience has been that… it takes a lot of balls to be interested in ROM hacking DOAE! heyooo!

ModeratorIn other words, some hot looking Thai women in Thailand are really men. Check the parts before bringing one home lol.

ParticipantThe best part about crappy yahoo news stories that -should not- be news is the comments:
CA man suspected of poisoning wife's Rice Krispies
Comments:
Cereal Killer
We'll all be safer once he Chex into prison.
I get accused of trying to poison my family every time I cook!
He could serve life, while the prison guards serve him LIFE…concurrently!
another cereal killer gets a spoonful of justice…..
The dude was unclear on serial killer concept
She should have switched the bowls when he left the room for a moment.
"Police grew suspicious of her husband when he said he was going to smoke a cigarette, then disappeared. He was arrested about two miles away and charged with impersonating a magician".
Mrs. Porras was unharmed, but the rice krispies were pronounced dead on arrival.
When she asked her husband "what's in the cereal" He replied: "Nutt N' Honey"
The police became suspicious when he sugar coated his story.
Two Scoops of arsenic in every box!
Your headline said he poisoned the cereal. Was the attempt to kill the cereal successfull?
What a friggin genius. He puts it in the least fragrant cereal on the planet.
Best part of waking up is poison in your cup!
Now his $1million bail will be coming out of his pay Chex.
Maybe he suspected his wife was after his Lucky Charms?!
I hear Captain Crunch is lead investigator.
Reminds me of a story an old man told me years ago. He and his wife were married for 60 years and she nagged him every day – his quote to me "I should have killed her long ago, I'd be out by now."
If I were married to you, I'd put poison in your coffee.
– – – Lady Astor (to Winston Churchill)
If you were my wife, I'd drink it.
– – – Winston Churchill, in reply
Insanity defense…Coo Coo for Cocoa Puffs
He doesn't have a chance in prison, they eat pieces of crap like him for breakfast ;)
Ever notice how the cereal box on Trix depicts a rabbit and the cereal itself looks like colored rabbit droppings……Trix are for kids, because adults know better.

ParticipantNew funny story:
New Type of Alien Planet Is a Steamy 'Waterworld'
The first sentence of the story made me laugh:
Scientists have discovered a new type of alien planet — a steamy waterworld that is larger than Earth but smaller than Uranus.
Wow, Uranus is really big! You must do a lot of drinking and clubbing near college campuses heh?
I also liked this comment:
Ever notice that all the scientific instruments searching for intelligent life are pointed away from earth
I know, I have nothing better to do. :p

ParticipantHmm… not sure what was supposed to be funny about that article… Olive Garden? Did I miss something? :?:
March 20, 2012 at 1:00 pm #41766Lord Yuan Shu
KeymasterJust the tone of the article and the what-rock-have-you-been-hiding-under aspect of it. But it is an old lady way up in ND so it's forgivable.
