OT: Weapons of Mass Destruction

Martin Milner · Post by **Martin Milner** » Fri Jul 04, 2003 4:35 am

With apologies to all my American buddies on today of all days, but you should try this before it's too late:

1) Go to Google.com

2) type in (but don't hit return): "weapons of mass destruction"

3) Hit the "I'm feeling lucky" button, instead of the normal "Google
search" button

4) read what appears to be a normal error message carefully.

Martin, I did as you instructed and got a good little chuckle

And there's no need to apologize to us Yanks - most of us do have a sense of humor and can laugh at ourselves.... and our government, too! Especially our government!!!

Martin,

Thanks for a great laugh

! Sometimes the best humor is that with a fair amount of truth and irony.

I saw that last night, when ChrisL told us about it. Looks like someone found a unique way to capitalize on Amazon's affiliate program!

That's great! if you follow the link "Detect Weapons" you get to see "Pieces of Intelligence: The Existential Poetry of Donald H. Rumsfeld" on amazon.com

Hilarious!

That's very funny. How did you learn about that?

That was pretty good! I've seen a similar one for Error 404, this page sucks and cannot be displayed, etc.
