What a pitiless job: trying to make your boss ‘down with the kids’ to lazy journalists.

Who would give this sort of crap a moments notice?

Guardian: “love this. Is there a press pack available?”

Good to know that #BetteridgesLawOfHeadlines is still operational.

Finally: Leering guy sitting alone in Macdonald’s, wearing a sheepskin jacket and shades is guaranteed to get the police to turn up, if that was the audience he was going for.

Yesterday some nowhere man posted a meme on Facebook posing the question “Is Paul McCartney a better drummer than Ringo Starr?”

Normally I ignore trolls but this time I took the bait and cited @ianbetteridge’s Law of Headlines (the answer to any headline posed as a question is “no”).

Today Sir Paul’s social media team (or maybe Sir Paul himself, but I doubt it) loved the post. Ringo is a great drummer, and I can die happy.

@daringfireball I feel like this should be a corollary to #BetteridgesLawOfHeadlines. If the question is "is so-and-so playing 11-dimensional chess?" the answer is almost certainly "no." If they look like they're flailing they're probably just flailing.

@peterjelinek Hier greift eh das nicht modifizierte #BetteridgesLawOfHeadlines.

@ianbetteridge Now there’s a suggestion for a second #BetteridgesLawOfHeadlines

“Any headline that contains the word could can be read muttering the word unlikely”
