I hope no one believed this joke news item. By the time you read the part of the story quoted below you just had to believe it was pure fiction.

"According to Wal-Mart, America’s largest retailer, the company admits that more than 5,000 shoppers will be killed at their stores this holiday season."

I'd kill three for a new Amiga. Classic that is.

The question of whether anyone believed it isn't the issue. The fact that you posted it as news is.

This wasn't posted as news, it's in the other operating systems section. It's satire on the ridiculous consumerism of American culture.

You posted it in exactly the same manner as you post all your other irrelevant bullshït "news" items. Nowhere did you indicate that this was any kind of a joke.

Anyone that read a few paragraphs of it would soon realize what it is. Lighten up and relax, I don't want Amiga.org to be a humorless void. It's not posted in the news section it's in other operating systems. I also posted several MorphOS news items around the same time.

If your goal isn't to comment the link you are posting in some way, why am I reading this instead of dailycurrant.com?
