Epic WTF

Not from this travesty of an article, but another travesty of an article

The mammal was found in the Marajo island of Brazil, about 50 feet from the ocean shore.

50ft from shore. In a mangrove swamp. Where the sea will often come hundred of meters, if not a few miles, inland...

Brazilian wildlife experts have been left baffled

They should probably consider a new career.

Also - mammal? Pff. Errybody know whale is a fish. IT SWIMS IN THE SEE. smh.

It was on the news here yesterday and it didn't strike me as amazing either...

Leaked Chinese database of 1.8 million women includes a field indicating whether they are "BreedReady"

Very odd data keeping stuff in general, but could the particularly weird breedready just be a literal translation thing?

Looking further down the thread, no. 1. They seem to know what they're doing and can read Chinese, 2. it seems that the fields were named in English by the programmer(s), not translated by the finders.

Just seen this. Not really sure what to say...

Looks like someone made a big chair out of left over decking in their garden, then realised it was uncomfortable and ugly as hell so they left it by the bin

They realised the aesthetics were no longer in keeping with current style.

Halloween electric chair?

Mate, that's a shocking pun...

Ohm furnishings.

I wish Velocio had a kill switch that he could use to take LFGSS down for 24 hours as soon as two puns are posted on the same page.

It wouldn't stop them...

It might shock some people into stopping.

Maybe he could charge for a pun negator add on? Attract some more positive opinions, zap them over to him and see watt he says.

On the plus side this discussion becomes polarised.

I can't seem to generate a pun, not one spark of an idea.
Was that a deck chair?

I don’t get the resistance to puns on here. So far-a-day has been made more bearable with humour: would you refuse us that?

Me neither.

amidoingitrite?

You are absolutely doing it right, yes.
