oh no ... oh my christ.. it had to happen..

I got to the paragraph entitled "Do-it-yourself rhinoplasty" and then my composure just fell out the window. I'm desperately trying to manage an insane urge to cry out laughing because I'm sure without a doubt many many people will look at me including my manager... maybe I should just save all the articles and take them home on a disc or something ... :)

For anyone unfamiliar with somethingawful.com, it consists of a couple (a few?) people making acute observations about many things in life. Some of the classics include nearly every console game reviewed (they all inevitable score less than 0), what animals would say if they could talk, and the like.

This is the paragraph in question, taken from the review of a nintendo wrestling game, about the moves you can perform in-game.

Do-it-yourself Rhinoplasty: This not-particularly-smart move involves you smashing the opponent’s forehead, an extremely hard part of the human head, with your nose. While it’s true that after playing this game for a few minutes you would probably welcome having your nose smashed backwards into your brain, your little guy on the screen is not so lucky. Instead the opponent mysteriously falls to the power of your small cartilage-filled appendange of death while you sit there and wonder how each and every developer apparently managed to find a large enough needle to give himself a shot of heroin directly to the brain stem.
