Seeing as the article was written in 2001, I don't think they got there...

why was this picked? Especially seeing that it was published on December 11, 2001.
Wouldn't be so bad if it was even remotely amusing.

I used to thrill to the idea of the four horsemen. Thought it was cool the first couple of times I saw them referenced on Fark. By now, however, if I were to actually see them, I would probably be telling them to get a life as the brimstone hooves seared my bursting flesh and splintering bone.

Excuse me, could you please point the way to the rapture?

It may be coincidence, but the same thing happened to me on Tuesday.

This story is crap, we all know Pestilence has long been replaced by Pollution.

DeeDub		2002-11-14 05:41:40 AM

zzzzz

Veritas		2002-11-14 05:42:00 AM

I think reading that article actually lowered my IQ by 50 points.

Whatever happened to the fifth horseman, Kaos, who was also known as "Ronnie" ?

Ah. Here be Pratchett/Gaiman fans.

Cormee		2002-11-14 06:26:48 AM

*runs*

LilFoot		2002-11-14 06:37:39 AM

Or Archangel? Shouldn't he have shown up too?
Man that article stunk up my room...

"It's a Mr. Death, he's here about the reaping"

Sigh...if only WWN was 1/10000 as funny. Instead, it's ignorant x 9999999. Yet, they still rake in millions of dollars from the public that loves to read their crap. People watch soap operas too.

Spamzilla		2002-11-14 08:20:47 AM

crappety crap. Now I can't get that Metallica song outta my head.

cookiemonster		2002-11-14 08:21:04 AM

if all of france raised their arms in unison, the four horsemen might surrender.

IgnatiusJReilly		2002-11-14 08:34:40 AM

Whoooo!

I told those dumbasses to meet me in Paris, TEXAS! I had this big entrance planned.

They aren't the brightest guys but they are hell-on drinkers.

labberdasher		2002-11-14 08:47:01 AM

So what do we do? Slaughter war, starve famine, poison pestillence (okay ... pollution), and kill death?
...okay, I'm up.

[licks window too]

(hey Veritas - i didn't know that was so much fun!]

GurneyHalleck		2002-11-14 08:55:55 AM

Reads like a Simpsons episode.

What are you all talking about? The Weekly World News is the greatest newspaper in the world...

...FOR ME TO POOP ON!

Seriously...I don't know why FARK allows WWN articles ever to be posted. I hate that damn paper. That, and the Sun.

PonchtheJedi		2002-11-14 09:30:10 AM

Ah, Sheriam, a Good Omens fan, are ya?

Astr0train		2002-11-14 10:20:08 AM

So Ric Flair, Arn and Ole Anderson, and Barry Wyndham need directions??? I think not! Oh I did not read the article, I just felt like making a 4 "woooh!" Horsemen reference.

Gromit		2002-11-14 10:54:19 AM

Sheriam: sounds like something i once read in a book called good omens.

fun stuff :)

Gromit		2002-11-14 10:55:16 AM

D'oh! beat to the punch. :/

Frksamor		2002-11-14 12:16:30 PM

Someone stupider than the french. How pleasant

hoohoodilly		2002-11-14 03:32:07 PM

"I advised him to keep his sword sheathed and I gave him directions, but I'm not sure he got them right," the cop said.

Is it wise to call one of the four horsemen shiathead?
