Middlesex Facebook middle school sex booking, past Pat Pat Pass pissed, and Jehovah's Witnesses in your doorway: Headlines of the Week 6/7 to 6/13 Posted by Drew at 2009-06-15 1:55:52 PM (23 comments) | Permalink
My favorite headline this week (and there were several good ones):
Pats pass on past Pat Pat Pass. Past Pat Pass passed pissed
Any other week and the cleverness of the Middlesex one would have taken it, but the former is an absolute gem. Kudos to everybody who made this week's list.
Awww, no love for "British foreign secretary David Milliband considered resigning, possibly because his brother Steve told him to take the money and run" ?

That was a well-crafted headline; I couldn't stop laughing.
Unfreakable:Pats pass on past Pat Pat Pass. Past Pat Pass passed pissed
Brilliant, true. I felt too shy to comment in the original thread that grammatically, "past pissed" would have been preferable to "passed pissed". "Past" meaning a reference to a temporal past, "passed" meaning a reference to a Cartesian past.

Fark headlines are often written more like news headlines... words like "has" and "it" can be dropped, making a headline a bit nonsensical at first glance. Reading it as if "pissed" is a fine line, that has been crossed, makes it work. Or if you think of being "pissed" as a stage that one can pass.
/of course, I was drunk and I'm poor at grammar, anyway
