Okay submitter, you got me. I giggled at your headline.

Spamzilla		2005-03-16 04:28:56 PM

it looks like Carrot Top in drag.

Rev.K		2005-03-16 05:42:18 PM

That headline is awesome.

I groaned, but it's awesome.

Golf claps for submitter.

danbo		2005-03-16 05:44:23 PM

*Groans* at submitter's puns.

/Still gives a golf clap though

...only to be hunted down and messily devoured by an angry, undead Dr. Atkins.

One wonders what inspired the first instance that created the record. Art project? Strange surplus of stale bread? Mycology?

Webgrunt		2005-03-16 05:45:46 PM

The team in the city of Chester assembled 7,000 slices of stale bread

I only count 1572 pieces of toast in that photo. Shenanigans! Shenanigans!

Durendal		2005-03-16 05:45:49 PM

Wow. That's a lot of loaves to be pinched.

Impudent Domain		2005-03-16 05:46:19 PM

Lets Have a toast!

Fark points for anyone old enough to remember where that came from.

Golf clap: sarcastically quiet applause, like when someone drops their plate in a cafeteria...

DeerNuts		2005-03-16 05:48:50 PM

Dame Edna. That's just perfect.

/golf clap

What did GoldenPalace.com bid for it?

Impudent Domain		2005-03-16 05:56:37 PM

No, its from a very old Mel Brooks/buck Henry tv show called "when things were rotten", it was very stupid and funny.

exarch		2005-03-16 05:57:06 PM

Maybe they did it because they kneaded the dough.

Driver		2005-03-16 05:58:36 PM

...if it pops too soon, press down again. Make Toast!
Yeah Toast!

Great mosaic, but why Napoleon Dynamite?

JadeSoleil		2005-03-16 06:03:01 PM

That picture is actually of the old record-holding mosaic in New Zealand, not the one this story is talking about.

rynosoft		2005-03-16 06:07:57 PM

Worst. Headline. Ever.

knitmeapony		2005-03-16 06:10:16 PM

Driver, you beat me to it.

Toast mosaics are the best thing since sliced bread... umm... come to think of it, it IS sliced bread.

majorhopper		2005-03-16 06:17:28 PM

Jesus asks, where's the fish?

That is a file photo meant to be used as an illustration, not an actual photo of the mosaic itself.

I wonder what the real thing looks like.

Whew, thanks, I thought I was going nuts.

/surprised no one rode me for counting the pieces of toast.

casey17		2005-03-16 06:36:44 PM

Hey - what happened to the fishes that was 'sposed to be there? And the wine?

/can't feed all those folk with bread alone...

Cool Hand Luke		2005-03-16 06:38:06 PM

WHY?

headline sucked. was that the best voting had to offer?

grayson		2005-03-16 06:49:54 PM

Anyone else find these world record publicity stunts to be a sad commentary on our society?

"Hey look, we made the biggest blueberry pancake in the world!"

Astronaut Bread		2005-03-16 06:50:27 PM

They should have done it in outer space.

gluedtomychair		2005-03-16 06:56:50 PM

All around the country
from coast to coast
people always ask me
what I like most
Well I dont wanna brag
and I dont wanna boast
but I always tell em I like toast

sniderman		2005-03-16 07:00:27 PM

Yeah! Toast!

Well done, submitter, well done indeed.

Correct. No pictures of the actual event the article is about.

<flame>Christ all-farking-mighty, can't these bloody news outlets afford to hire a photographer once in a while?</flame>

resnet_pimp		2005-03-16 07:21:08 PM

jesus could have done it with 5 loaves.

and some fish.

QuantumObserver		2005-03-16 07:39:28 PM

A mosaic, fine. But what always ticks me off is when they line up a bunch of smaller whatevers, and then call it the world's biggest whatever. Like laying poptarts out on a big table one by one and Presto...the world's biggest PopTart! What kind of diseased minds think of crap like that?
