I’ve always loved headlines. Especially the ones that don’t
necessarily convey the intended idea. So I went trolling through some of the
internet news sites to see if I couldn’t stock up on ambiguousness…er, ambigution?
Ambiguitude?
Anyhow, I did manage to find a few headlines that I felt
might be open to question:
·
“Man walks out, home explodes” makes one wonder
what he had for lunch, does it not?
·
And then there’s “Ice-fishing house explodes.” -
Please say it was the propane tank…
·
“Manatee released after two years” - Did it not get a phone call and a court
appointed lawyer?
·
“McDonalds angles for more variety with Fish
McBites” - What’s next – Fries McStubbies?
Tiny cheeseburgers? (Never mind, they already have those.)
·
“Outrageous photos of Kim Kardashian see-through
skirt” – First, let me just say E-e-e-ew! And aren’t any photos of this talentless famous-for-being-famous troll
outrageous?
·
How about “Car Salesmen Confessions?” - How
do you respond - well, duh?
·
“When does your wife get social security?” – Do I
really want to know?
·
And the one we could absolutely have done
without – “Honey Boo-Boo’s parents reveal ‘random hookup’ romance.” - Please, for Gawd’s sake, don’t think about
this one. Just walk away…
