Well, Steve, we've got some real backup near the old beaver dam. A log has fallen in the water and we're rerouting people around it but things are a mess, minnows jumping out of the water all over the place. Please stay safe out there, everyone.

Reporter: Tom, we're unsure exactly WHAT prompted this Brow... sorry, 'urban' bear to go on a rampage. Witnesses at the scene say he was recently seen consuming 'honey', a recreational drug popularized in bear culture. The question we're all asking here is, where are the bear community leaders to decry this senseless violence?

Hey emfive, this is Alec. I am glad you like the mummy eating the bowl of shitty pasta with a can of 'parm.' I made that image for you way back when. I’m glad you enjoy it.

The Mainstream Media posted:

Hackers have reportedly been creating Internet content that purports to be products of "mainstream" media, but which is in fact artificially produced. The content — photographs and commentary, along with suggestions about how members of the media operate — have been appearing on a popular fringe web "forum" site. Web forums are a form of chat room that are increasingly being abandoned for more modern social media like Twitter, Facebook, and My Space. Evidence of the activity allegedly began to surface earlier today (9 Mar 2015).

The falsified media reports are, so far, confined to a particular topical portion of the website — a "thread', in hacker parlance. Newcomers to the website, possibly lured by "phishing attacks" or the even more insidious "spearfishing" technique, may find the artificial "news" hard to distinguish from actual reporting, and this has some experts worried.

Ironically, the forum frequently has been the scene of extensive, weeks-long debates concerning the quality of modern social media and the dark side of its adoption — problems, indeed, like this one. Generally, highly defensive long-term participants in these debates have decried the suggestions that improvements should be made with newer technology like digital "cash" schemes as "ridiculous" or "insane".

It is unclear what jurisdiction might have sway over the forum, known as "Something Awful", as its location is unclear. Some forum members claim the website is operated from a small building in rural Missouri, but most experts agree that story is unlikely.

Minor crisis today as migrating geese stopping over on the small island just north of the old pipe were heard to refer to the "lamestream media". On further investigation, they were found to be referring to a stream 500 miles south.
