Well of course it did. A newspaper wouldn't just make up something like that.

Quick googling suggests no. Perhaps that's not a reputable scientific journal?

You'd think they'd know to bury that kind of juicy infaux. As it stands now, shrewder readers wouldn't get two sentences in before dismissing the whole thing as bollocks.

"Shrewd readers" isn't something that the Sunday Sport will ever have to worry about.

Hm... You might be onto something here. Maybe this funny picture of a British tabloid is not 100% factually true, after all.

I can't tell if this is shopped or if the Sunday Sport editors really thought their readers were in with a chance of proving Fermat's last theorum.

Anyway, here's more hard-hitting journalism for you. As far as I know the perp is still at large.

The best thing about Sunday Sport is how little of it is actually dedicated to sports.

I've been sitting here for 5 mins trying to think of a joke to make but I just realised the animators of Mass Effect already did it for me

Only ones I don't know for sure are two in the last pic: top row, far right, and bottom row, middle wait, that's from They Live. So just the blond mullet dude eludes me...

Pretty sure that's Keifer Sutherland's character from The Lost Boys.

I'd appreciate knowing the guy right beside him, middle guy in the top row.

'Startocaster' is more fun to say than I expected.
I figured it was the main Replicant from Blade Runner, but doing an image search, it doesn't really look as much like him as I thought. Don't think I ever saw lost boys so I wouldn't have guessed that.

It is Attack on Titan which is a Japanese Animation about a bunch of people who fling themselves around on compressed air and kill giant babies by jamming razors in their necks.
