Suggested Alternative Headline Fun

Octobaby

London’s Evening Standard gives this story the following headline: Toddler with eight limbs branded ‘reincarnation of Hindu god’ to undergo life-saving operation.

I’m not a good person so I now submit to you the following alternative headlines:

  • Eight Is Enough
  • A Hello To Arms
  • She’s Got Legs! She Doesn’t Know How To Use Them
  • Arachkid
  • Butterlegs
  • Paymore Shoe Source
  • Talk To The Hands

See you in hell.

Now that she’s had successful surgery, I feel like playing will only cost me a pit stop in purgatory, instead of a straight shot to hell. So…

I was all “Tsk, tsk” and “Tut, tut” while reading this thread, and then I got to Meg’s comment and snickered aloud. Thanks a lot, Meg. SEE YOU IN HECK.

Oh Tammy I know you’re a big bastard like the rest of us, you just have to hide it when you’re around Sam — you’re not fooling me!

Meg 11.07.07 at 11:17 pm

Tammy, I’m so sorry I brought you down with me. Blame Glark. I do. Though, I’m sure he’s been waiting quite a while to find a lower body image shocking enough to steal the focus from his own hooves and tail.

This has made my day. I’m sorry, but I’m just in a “mood” today…so with that I leave:

“New Hybrid Will Double Outsourcing”

I was going to deny this, but then I vividly recalled a couple of cruel, terribly inappropriate jokes of which I should be extremely ashamed (made under duress when we were visiting St. Catharines: that city has that effect on me). You win, Glark… this time!
