LJ News for the Lulz

The State of the Goat 2008 post is up at LJ, with gems like this:

2007: Something We Didn't Get Right
In our attempt to implement a zero tolerance policy towards content that supports child abuse, pedophilia, or sexual violence, we suspended about 500 journals in May of 2007 that should not have been taken down. We wish it hadn't happened at all, and we cannot say we're sorry enough. However, we did immediately realize our mistake, and all of the journals that did not break our TOS were restored as quickly as possible. We really screwed up, and when that happens, we've learned the best thing to do is just admit it and try to fix the problem to the best of our abilities.
Understatement of the year, you think?

*SNORTCACKLE!* Understatement of the millennium so far! I'm going to have to go over there just to see what kind of wank they're getting. Funny how they fail to mention that, after making that mistake at the end of May, they then proceeded to make it again in August.

I think they need to look up the word "immediately" in the dictionary. "However, we did immediately realize our mistake" doesn't really work with the the definition of immediate.

Heh, if they keep trying to use that word, we can Princess Bride them for it: "I do not think that means what you think it means."

The best is a Nebris in the post, and I'd love to see a Frank/Stalin deathmatch!

...Nebris does bear a bizarre resemblance to Rasputin, doesn't he? XD

If that's really him? More like an anthropomorphized tampon, IMO.
