	<description><![CDATA[Playgrounds across the country are reporting a large rise in nonce appearances after the collapse of once popular social network Bebo forced sexual deviants to look elsewhere for children to groom.<br /><br />With rumours still abound that the Bebo collapse may be temporary, perverts have insisted that any resurrection needs to be quick because those swings are starting to look very promising indeed.<br /><br />Registered sex offender Travis Millwood told us, “This is a very sad day for those of us with a niche interest in pretending to be a young girl whilst trying to talk another young girl into meeting us in a secluded area.”<br /><br />“Some of my happiest memories in the last few years are based around that website. Sure, it’s also where I got caught by the police and incarcerated for a couple of years, but I tend to remember the good times.”<br /><br />Bebo closed<br /><br />Not all perverts are so forgiving of the one-time popular social network favoured by young children.<br /><br />One angry paedophile told us, “Bebo say they’re coming back, then they say they’re gone for good – now, I’m a patient man generally, but I’ve got some thirteen year-olds to groom and I’m on a clock here.”<br /><br />“So they either pull their fingers out or I’ll be straight onto Google maps looking for my nearest playground.”<br /><br />Another said, “Look, this is no tragedy because Bebo has been far too mainstream since 2008 anyway.”<br /><br />“Do you know how many times I’ve wasted a couple of weeks grooming someone who turned out to be another nonce?”<br /><br />“On the brightside, I did get to meet Gary Glitter.”<br /><br /> <a href="http://newsthump.com/?flattrss_redirect&id=33041&md5=48f7839e056ce84bfd809e445211049b" title="Flattr" target="_blank"><img src="http://newsthump.com/wp-content/plugins/flattr/img/flattr-badge-large.png" alt="flattr this!"/></a><br /><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/0F-nMBeuqWDD3hYago9NPlfduSw/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/0F-nMBeuqWDD3hYago9NPlfduSw/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br /><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/0F-nMBeuqWDD3hYago9NPlfduSw/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/0F-nMBeuqWDD3hYago9NPlfduSw/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Newsarse/~4/MS2CzYBe_Rs" height="1" width="1"/> ]]></description>

  <source url="http%3A%2F%2Fhow-tomakemoneyonline.com"><![CDATA[Police Swoop On Major E-Marketing Sites]]></source>
	<description><![CDATA[In dawn raids across two continents US and UK police today moved to break up what they believe may be one of the biggest international drug cartels to have been discovered this century. Although dozens of people are thought to be helping police with their enquiries this morning, preliminary reports are indicating that no drugs have been recovered.<br /><br />Inspector bean, the UK officer responsible for instigating the operation in the first place, told reporters that “It all began when I was having a conversation with my young nephew over pizza one evening. Many of his friends have had difficulty finding work since they left college, and he told me that a large number of them are now turning to <a href="http://how-tomakemoneyonline.com/?cid=65">e-marketing</a> to make a living, using websites like <a href="http://how-tomakemoneyonline.com">How To Make Money Online</a>. He was quite open about this, and I was shocked to hear that the sale of ecstasy has become so widespread over the neterwebs. Many of these youngsters are apparently earning large sums of money through these operations, so I knew it must be big, and they even seem to be openly recruiting new members into these gangs through something called <a href="http://how-tomakemoneyonline.com/?cid=66">affiliate marketing</a>. ”<br /><br />Over the sound of loud groans from both reporters and the reddening faces of higher ranking officers, who had undoubtedly all come to grab the glory for something they knew nothing about, one sniggering reporter asked Inspector bean whether he had ever heard of something called e-mail. At this point the Inspector seemed to become very animated and excitable, but told the press conference that he could not say much because he did not want to jeopardise an upcoming investigation into a global drug smuggling investigation thought to involve sending packets of ecstasy through the post.<br /> ]]></description>

  <source url="http%3A%2F%2F"><![CDATA[Disney to purchase LHC]]></source>
	<description><![CDATA[Anaheim, CA.  The Disney Corporation announced today that it is to purchase the Large Hadron Collider from the CERN research institute, in an effort to create the worlds fastest theme park ride. The sale of the LHC, a 17 mile long underground particle accelerator, came about after the scientists working on it came to the conclusion that their research was pretty pointless and that most people walked away, or fell asleep when it was explained to them what the scientists were trying to do with it. According to one insider at CERN, the LHC which was originally designed to examine different theories of particle physics and to try and confirm the existence of the Higgs Boson particle, ended its days being used to ‘Shoot all sorts of crap at each other. One day we fired a couple of water coolers from our canteen at each other, that was pretty cool. Another time we drove our cars around it like some sub-terranean NASCAR race’. A spokesman for the Disney Corporation said they hadn’t yet finalised the format of the attraction, but with the ride expected to attain speeds 99.9999991% of the speed of light, the queues for it should be minimal. ]]></description>

  <source url="http%3A%2F%2F"><![CDATA[Shark strike]]></source>
	<description><![CDATA[Cape Town S.A.  In an unprecedented display of carcharadon solidarity, the worlds entire population of great white sharks announced today they are withholding their co-operation with the Discovery channel in their<br />endless quest to fill the schedules with shark documentaries. Derdum Finn, an 18 footer from Seal Island and spokesperson for the sharks said ‘For many years now we have graciously assisted numerous film crews trying to obtain stunning footage of us as we go about our daily lives, often hamming it up to the camera to try and give them the most exiting shots, such as pretending to attack them in their flimsy little dive cages, popping our heads up unexpectedly alongside their boats, swimming along with an oxygen cylinder sticking out of the corner of our mouths like some foil wrapped  cigar and worst of all, leaping theatrically out of the water in order to grab some stupid, imitation rubber seal. In reality there is no way we’d attack a seal like that, have you ever tried belly flopping into the water from 15 ft in the air? It fucking hurts I can tell you, my sides were the colour of a slapped arse for a week when I did it’. The impasse arose following the filming of<br />‘Shark men’ for some reason starring Paul Walker of the popular ‘Fast and furious’ franchise, where a number of sharks were harpooned,  dragged aboard a hydraulic platform, raised out of the water, only for them to be prodded, poked and generally humiliated. It was the latter behaviour, which led a number of sharks to comment that ‘Fast and Furious was a piece of shit’ and ‘I would rather have been gang raped in the multiplex toilets’. Mr Finn went on to state that he was hoping other over exploited, under remunerated species such as Meerkats and Wildebeest would join their cause.

	<description><![CDATA[<strong>As the US Marines responsible for urinating on dead Taliban fighters were identified, observers have insisted that the abuse of enemy combatants should be limited to trying to kill them at every single opportunity.</strong><br /><br />The world was shocked by the images of marines ‘disrespecting’ the dead bodies of Taliban fighters, with some experts claiming that you should be nice to them as soon as you’ve successfully finished being horrendously nasty to them.<br />Television owners Simon Williams said, “I’m not sure I understand, if you offered me the choice of being pissed upon or shot at, I know which I’d prefer.”<br />“On a scale of mean things you can do to Taliban soldiers, I’d say that urinating on their lifeless bodies is somewhere near the bottom – just behind prank calling and whoopie cushions.”<br />US Marines<br />Military strategists have insisted that the outrage over the incident is fully warranted.<br />As one explained to us, “There will be some lily-livered liberals who will tell you that firing a high-velocity trajectory into the face of a living human being is far worse than urinating on a sack decomposing meat – but I would say those people are idiots.”<br />“And then I would shoot them in the face.”<br /> <a href="http://newsthump.com/?flattrss_redirect&id=32685&md5=83f1b0dae797e3472606f2f0f8013f2a" title="Flattr" target="_blank"><img src="http://newsthump.com/wp-content/plugins/flattr/img/flattr-badge-large.png" alt="flattr this!"/></a><br /><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/zypFcvNtOf0tM2hCmHy-77lzj44/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/zypFcvNtOf0tM2hCmHy-77lzj44/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br /><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/zypFcvNtOf0tM2hCmHy-77lzj44/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/zypFcvNtOf0tM2hCmHy-77lzj44/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Newsarse/~4/4Dj8a8mkhJo" height="1" width="1"/> ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[Today passed without mishap says everyone.<br /><br />Doom mongers and fuckwits everywhere were confounded today when nothing out of the ordinary happened. No one was struck by a passing Albertross after having a black cat cross their path, no one had the bum stolen after walking under a ladder and no one had to listen to Justin Bieber after breaking a mirror.<br /><br />Perennial knobjockey Shaun Tyler said "I walked under a ladder whilst a black cat crossed my path at the same time saying bloody Mary three times and humming the German National Anthem, the old one, you know with the verses about conquering everyone, and nothing bad happened to me today. mind you, last year on Friday the Thirteenth, I stunned my toe. That's pretty unlucky."<br /><br />Elsewhere, Polar Bears felt lucky that their habitat was being destroyed and nothing more serious happened today. The unlawfully held inhabitants of Guantanamo were thanking their lucky stars that they were only being violently forcefed, ritually humiliated and tortured on a daily basis and not that they had walked under a ladder as well.<br /><br />Meanwhile screaming cockwits were busily avoiding cats and ladders. Doris Offal, 89 from Chalfont said "I was walking down the Finchley Road, when a black cat ran across my path from under a ladder, I was so frightened that I ran across the road and straight under a bus, the 46 I think, to Holborn." ]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[<strong>Samsung claims to have put an end to expensive replacement televisions, by offering consumers equally expensive television upgrades instead.</strong><br /><br />The device is viewed by the manufacturing giants as a ground-breaking leap in being able to corale consumers into purchasing from the same company throughout the lifespan of advances in televisual technology.<br />A Samsung spokesperson conceded the chances of a television never becoming obsolete were about as likely as Jedward becoming astronauts.<br />“We are more aware than most that technological advances, by their very nature, make their predecessors seem like prehistoric artifacts – our sales strategy absolutely relies upon it.”<br />“But you wouldn’t fall for Vauxhall telling you, ‘look, buy our car because as technology advances we’ll change the chassis and the engine for you – all for the low, low cost of a new Vauxhall’.”<br />“But with a telly, you might just fall for it.”<br />Upgradeable television<br />Samsung hope the innovation will reassure shoppers that worrying about expensive new televisions will be a thing of the past.<br />“Why spend all the time researching the Internet for your choice of television, when all you need to do is give us a call with your credit card?”<br />“We’ll send round a qualified engineer – at an industry standard hourly rate – to plug something ridiculously expensive into the side of your television, and hey presto – you didn’t even need to buy a new wall bracket.”<br />“It’s the future.”<br /> <a href="http://newsthump.com/?flattrss_redirect&id=32622&md5=122fbe627bc348960fd6956b92e04130" title="Flattr" target="_blank"><img src="http://newsthump.com/wp-content/plugins/flattr/img/flattr-badge-large.png" alt="flattr this!"/></a><br /><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/VWijczLIV57qKj235PolNnQ1Db8/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/VWijczLIV57qKj235PolNnQ1Db8/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br /><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/VWijczLIV57qKj235PolNnQ1Db8/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/VWijczLIV57qKj235PolNnQ1Db8/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/Newsarse/~4/_fdnoBJjRlc" height="1" width="1"/> ]]></description>

  <source url="http%3A%2F%2F"><![CDATA[Afghanistan to be relocated]]></source>
	<description><![CDATA[Washington, D.C.  In a move that military analysts are calling the greatest re-think of U.S military doctrine in the last one hundred years, the Pentagon announced today that it is to re-locate Afghanistan to the continental United States. Said a Pentagon spokesman ‘ It has become clear to our  policy formulators that  fighting a ‘War on terror’ halfway around the globe is putting a huge strain on our military, not only in terms of logistics  but also its deleterious effect on troop morale. Also with so many countries in the region ending in ‘Stan’, half our shit doesn’t end up where it’s supposed to anyway. Therefore we have decided to bring things a little closer to home by relocating the entire Afghani population, their towns, cities, roads and infrastructure here to the U.S. We have located an under utilised area of land on the Wyoming/Montana/Idaho border that closely mimics the terrain of Afghanistan and which nobody seems to use much. Each Afghani adult will receive a relocation allowance of a goat and a cable t.v package’. A  Pentagon source later stressed that premium movies would not be included. The idea is thought to be popular with local residents, who hope it will bring a much needed boost to the local economy, with the names IEDs4U and Burkas2GO already being registered with Idaho Chamber of Commerce. The Pentagon also believes that with troops fighting on their own doorstep it will be possible for them to spend  weekdays ‘In theatre’ whilst going home to their families at the weekend,<br />one minute on patrol, their nerves stretched drum tight expecting to get picked off by a Taliban sniper or being turned into a red pulp by a roadside bomb, the next on a Greyhound bus, off to see their loved ones ‘We don’t foresee any issues  with that’ said a spokesman. The news has also been well received by U.S personnel in Afghanistan, a USMC spokesman been quoted as saying ‘ Yeah, yeah, get some, get some, run Charlie, run’<br /> ]]></description>

  <source url="http%3A%2F%2F"><![CDATA[New 2012 50p's Aimed at Women]]></source>
	<description><![CDATA[The childishly cutesy pictures on the new 50ps are targeting getting the unfit and sportless into exercise. <br /><br />Janet Tyler said "I saw this drawing on the back of a 50p and thought "aww he looks nice", even though it looks like he's breaking his on a fence. It's something called the "high jump" or something. This happens at the "Olympics". I have seen adverts for it, but I thought that the rings were to do with that car company Audi."<br /><br />Designer Shaun Tyler (no relation) said "Women haven't got a clue when it comes to sport, take offside for example. If they can't understand it from three blokes shouting slightly different things at them in the pub and then sighing and using a pint glass and salt and pepper pots to demonstrate, while she sits looking bored and patronised, then we need to find a different way. My design of using the shapes on playstation buttons and no words seems to us to be accessible, understandable and came from months of meetings down the pub." <br /><br />After laughing derisively and saying "Oh love" patronisingly, the design and PR team for 2012 have decided on four designs: the high jump, offside, lbw and how to run a marathon without pissing yourself.<br /><br />Sir Barty Stewartson, Head of Olympic PR, "We drew up a shortlist, then selected the final four designs. We did have five, but couldn't come up with a design that explains how to throw overarm without endangering others that would fit on the back of a 50p." ]]></description>

  <source url="http%3A%2F%2F"><![CDATA[GUN LOBBY RALLIES AROUND SANTORUM!]]></source>
	<description><![CDATA[“You’ll have to pry my cold dead hands off my sweater vest,” NRA President Rick O’Shay said today as he fondled a moth-eaten woolen object that looked to be tartan plaid. “It’s been in the closet too long and we’re just glad that Santorum had the balls to pull it out. You know, this is one sweater that really stands for the right to bare arms, something we’re all for. It’s a shame that no one was willing to come out wearing one until Santorum.  He’s sure demonstrated his leadership abilities with his clothing selection. What more can you ask from a presidential candidate?<br /><br />“A few weeks ago, when Newt Gingrich was shooting off his mouth, we thought that we’d found the guy for us, but then he started shooting from the hip and we began to wonder, how’s he going to hit anything that way?<br /><br />“We took a look at Ron Paul. For a while there, we thought he was a straight shooter, but sometimes he goes off half-cocked and no one’s going to vote for a guy who’s got only half a cock.<br /><br />“Don’t even get me started on Romney. You ask me, he’s a loose canon. Every time he turns around, he shoots himself in the foot. About a quarter of our constituency seems to like that because he can’t seem to miss but it’s got nothing to do with marksmanship. His problem is he aims to please.<br /><br />“When you get right down to it, all of our candidates, except Santorum are stuffed shirts. That’s the reason he’s the only one who can wear a sweater vest.” ]]></description>

  <source url="http%3A%2F%2F"><![CDATA[LOBBYIST DEMANDS CANDIDATES PLEDGE TO RESTORE FEUDALISM!]]></source>
	<description><![CDATA[<br /><br />After repeated demands for him to detail the ultimate objective of his campaign to require candidates for public office to swear an oath never to collect taxes, Grubby Ouldquest, the super-lobbyist that some have called “king-maker” finally admitted today that his real mission was to restore feudalism.<br /><br />Holding a copy of the U.S. Constitution, Ouldquest pointed to the Preamble. “Look at this,” he said excitedly. “The purpose of our government is to ‘promote the general welfare.’ Welfare! This is nothing but a utilitarian SOCIALIST document and it ought to be just tossed in the trash heap of history where it belongs.”<br /><br />When asked what he’d like to see replace the present government, Ouldquest didn’t miss a beat. “Feudalism,” he said, scrounging from that very same historical trash bin. “With feudalism, you didn’t need a government. Everything was private. <br /><br />“What about roads and bridges?” a skeptic hollered from the back of the audience.<br /><br />“Back in the good old days, you didn’t need roads,” Ouldquest replied, scowling. “You wanted to go somewhere, you just trampled over peasants’ fields. And if you came to a river, you waded, swam or hired a boatman — just like the way you get to Hell. And sure there were some bridges, but they were private too.  It was pay as you go and that kept the peasants in their place.”<br /><br />“What about armies, police, fire departments. Shouldn’t those be government functions?” someone challenged.<br /><br />Smiling, Ouldquest delivered a ready response. “A thousand years ago, if you wanted soldiers, you hung a ‘help wanted’ sign on the parapet of your castle. When your private army wasn’t off trying to rob the guy in the neighboring castle, or starting fires, it was available to put them out. And since peasants had no rights to free speech or to a free press, you could use the same guys to keep them in line. It all worked out fine.”<br /><br />“But they had taxes back then, didn’t they?”  a reporter asked. “I mean, what was Robin Hood all about if it wasn’t interfering with the Sheriff of Nottingham’s tax collection activities? “<br /><br />“Look” Ouldquest sniffed, “you must not have been paying attention. Robin Hood was a socialist. He was preventing the guys with the castles from collecting money from the peasants, money they needed to hire their private armies. It’s the guys in the castles, the job providers, I’m worried about, not the peasants whose fields are getting trampled.  You start worrying about peasants, that’s when you get into crap like promoting the general welfare. “  <br /><br /><br /> ]]></description>
