For the Love of Fark

I am a big reader of Fark - a news aggregate web site that posts news articles and then has forums where you discuss the article in question. What's funny about Fark is 1) the headline and 2) the comments.

Here is todays sample: There is an article in some Florida newspaper about how the Obama Transition team wants to get an update from NASA and here is the headline they posted:
"Barack Obama's transition team is all "NASA, what's up?" NASA is then like "GTFO" So Obama's team is all, "WTF?" NASA: "I told you GTFO, you don't know shiat"

GTFO = get the f*** out

As usually happens with Fark, the link to the article gets overwhelmed with views and crashes. They call it "link is farked". So I go to the forum to see what the article is about and there is a lot of confusion because some people read the article and some couldn't - leading this guy to comment:

"This thread makes me pee out of my butt."

And another comment:

"I can't RTFA article; it's like getting slapped in the face by a dick made of words.A big, throbbing, verbose dong."

RTFA = read the f-ing article

So people post their pithy comments and I chuckle at the word choice people use.

I guess it is one of those "you had to be there".

Well anyway, I enjoy it and that's all that matters.

Go Fark!
