In the publishing world, there really are deadlines. If you don't have the
art in by the time the magazine prints, it's not getting printed. :-)
That said, I imagine a few of these at least were rejected and only made it
to the net after the real ones were published.
Good list, tho. Thanks!

Features some pretty geniune failure, really.
Like the can of insectacide covered in insects. Or, my personal
favourit, the huge scrolling billboard saying "Windows did not shut down
correctly"... (I've actually been in the London Underground and found
that every single one of their TV advert boards had the Windows 95 BSoD.
Which is doubly worrying, really...)

Most of these you can't actually tell what's supposed to be wrong. But
the few where you can tell... heh, I'm loving the guy with 13 fingers!

"Up for sale is a used coffin. It is in very good condition with no

A few others I find amusing, too...
Zero Punctuation - very funny video game reviews.
http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/zero-punctuation
Surprisingly, every game he liked that I played, I liked also,
and the ones he panned, I panned for the same reasons.
Just my kind of nasty humor, methinks:

Personally I love this unintentionally funny header: "Chick Accuses Some

This makes my brain spazz out. How does he talk so fast? For that
matter, how does he think this stuff up so fast? (I'm presuming he
writes it before hand, coz... *damn*, nobody thinks this fast, surely...)

That's his "thing." It *is* called "Zero Punctuation".

Of course. In one of the videos it even has a shot of the script somewhere.
"I started out posting videos on youtube, which is kind of like throwing
messages in bottles into a sea made entirely of messages in bottles. But
sometimes someone comes along in a boat made out of money and offers to let
you ride in his boat made out of money as long as you keep throwing messages
in bottles overboard."
