Headline of the Year candidate

This headline is unintentionally hilarious as it states the obvious "strip search finds crack between buttocks"

Fantastic. Are you sure it was unintentional?

 

I'm assuming it was unintentional

 

Why would you assume that?
Any worthwhile headline writer would go with that.

 

I saw this one on fail blog the other day and you have to assume it was not intended to look as it does:

 

Um, not in a million years. It's the one you laugh with your desk buddies about, to get it out of your system. Then you write a usable hed.

 

I think it depends on what kind of publication you're at. If you're the New York Post or a college paper, then definitely. I could see where a stodgier place would never run it (NYT), and I imagine it wouldn't fly in some areas of the country.

 

Reason No. 3,450,987 why newspapers are failing.
Lack of a sense of humor when it's perfectly appropriate.

 

How is alluding to asscrack acceptable among grownups? I would realllly worry about you as a slot person. If I were in position to hire you, I wouldn't.

 

What is the cutoff age?

 

An infielder, depending on the field the throw's from.

Oh, age. Never mind.

 

Never assume; it makes an ass out of u and me.
