Awesome headline.

You will find that every branch of the Armed Forces, and even individual units, have Twitter, Facebook.. all that shiat.

There is a big push in the military towards the "social media" markets.

Bows before subby!

Techhell		2010-09-06 12:57:16 PM

I want to hate you, Subby, for such a terrible, terrible headline. However the g/f and I agree - this headline is so bad it has moved into the Awesome category.

Fark Me with a Chainsaw		2010-09-06 01:02:27 PM

One of my favorite headlines of all time.....OF ALL TIME!!!

TheMaskedArmadillo		2010-09-06 01:03:35 PM

Golf clap - Well done subby!

obz		2010-09-06 01:05:16 PM

Je suis vraiment obtenir un coup de pied de certaines de ces réponses....

jaspyrnyte		2010-09-06 01:07:53 PM

Awesome, subby, just awesome

dumpstertize		2010-09-06 01:09:45 PM

excellent headline!

Macinfarker		2010-09-06 01:22:06 PM

i wonder how long subby waited to use that one?

Bravo anyways :-)

badspella		2010-09-06 01:22:34 PM

+2 subby. 1 for generally being clever, 1 for boldly going where the cliché has gone too many times, badly, before.

eightballart		2010-09-06 01:23:42 PM

I LOL'd it, subby. :)

Masterdog		2010-09-06 01:24:43 PM

Macinfarker: i wonder how long subby waited to use that one?

Bravo anyways :-)

Actually about five seconds. I suddenly thought of the pun, then didn't try very hard to find some way to shoehorn it into a headline.

cannibalparrot		2010-09-06 01:25:30 PM

HO. LEE. HELL.

I lol'd.

Well played, subs.

millia		2010-09-06 01:28:09 PM

Cue the brilliant guys.
While I'm here, years ago, there was a time when Drew had all these alternate sample fark mastheads. I still want to see the 'France surrenders' one again... Anybody?

BrynnMacFlynn		2010-09-06 01:28:34 PM

GODAMNNIT SUBBY.

Descartes		2010-09-06 01:29:56 PM

Awesome subby.... awesome.

Cybernetic		2010-09-06 01:37:42 PM

I'll bet this headline makes Drew's favorites for the week.

HOTY candidate? Maybe.

/Well done, subby.

Very nice work! Take the rest of the day off with your Yank friends.

charliebear		2010-09-06 01:45:10 PM

A+ subby

Clete Orris		2010-09-06 01:58:44 PM

subby, you magnificent bastard!

myspamhere		2010-09-06 02:01:49 PM

So much headline win!

PartTimeBuddha		2010-09-06 02:03:26 PM

I was broken-hearted, until Subby came along.

SockMonkeyHolocaust		2010-09-06 02:14:26 PM

The Vietcong would have had one but they were too busy ejecting imperialists from their country to cobble an internet connection together from old shoes thrown away by ARVN.

Junzi Nicuzn		2010-09-06 02:17:24 PM

Splendid use of a pun and a cliché. +1

PartTimeBuddha		2010-09-06 02:18:17 PM

"Last night a subby saved my life."

TheRetropolitan		2010-09-06 02:23:20 PM

Oh, that's a beautiful headline.

SnatchTease		2010-09-06 02:31:13 PM

I LOL'd

/+1 Subby

Ninja Wicked		2010-09-06 03:02:22 PM

Nice job Subby, a France surrenders headline that's actually funny. Bravo!

Euell Gibbons		2010-09-06 03:16:16 PM

Ow. You need a better translator.

Or a translator.

_{/I the love?}

wagnerism		2010-09-06 05:03:10 PM

regarding the headline...

groan.

ZipSplat		2010-09-06 05:28:50 PM

AKO is still a miserable pile of shiat.

gamempire		2010-09-06 05:43:00 PM

SockMonkeyHolocaust: The Vietcong would have had one but they were too busy ejecting imperialists from their country to cobble an internet connection together from old shoes thrown away by ARVN.

And here I thought they made their series of tubes out of mud and put them in their network of tunnels...

Also, +1 to subby for giving me a good chuckle.

timecrash2001		2010-09-06 05:49:42 PM

HA!

At the very least, headline of the week.

theurge14		2010-09-06 05:56:22 PM

Nice one.

obz		2010-09-06 06:23:12 PM

Cykeo: /I the love?

No, it's "I love you"

Toshiro Mifune's Letter Opener		2010-09-06 06:36:32 PM

You made Arnold laugh, subby.

Well done.

kevinatilusa		2010-09-06 07:08:04 PM

Today marks the beginning of #OperationNewDawn in Iraq.

Sounds almost like we're entering the Twilight of our time in Iraq.

redsquid		2010-09-06 08:02:24 PM

Subby made me laugh! Hooray!

m1ke		2010-09-06 08:09:50 PM

It's funny because the French are a bunch of surrender monkeys and retweeting is a horrible word.

/huh?

EvilElecBlanket		2010-09-06 08:20:33 PM

Subby, I had an awesome weekend...but not as awesome as that headline.
