This may have been posted here already.

Be sure to see the random stupidity generator, and test pane.

YouTube desperately needs one.

Maybe they can add superfluous and unnecessary use of the word "Official" in thread titles to their Bayesian filter....

This thread is off to the usual stellar MacNN start.

I say it was photoshopped. The reflections are all wrong and there's evidence near the edges of the screen that it was cut and pasted together. It's not even a good photoshop.

Tiresias: this is actually a pretty interesting idea. I don't see why programatically they couldn't filter for stupidity based on their provided definition. I can't wait to download a Firefox extension that filters stupid content on web pages

You can do that just as easily by putting "forums.macnn.com 127.0.0.1" in your hosts file.
