    Someone fucked up the speech bubble gag. It looks like the quote is speaking the picture of Philomena rather than vise versa

    Would people be interested in an instance just for Cunkposting? I feel like this format has great potential.

      Can the format be changed though because I find the speech bubble placement weird.

      Picture should be below the text and the bubble going up to text box.

      Right now it makes it look like the textbox is talking and saying “cunk”?? It’s backwards.

      Unless it’s intentional and I’m missing some inside joke or something.

        On a serious note, no harm done. While 80 000 is quite a lot, who’s hurt? The user who is looking with incorrect term? No, he found what he’s looking for. The joker? No, she got the laughs. The organisation? No, it’s not paid work.

        Everyone wins. Weird, but not at all harmful.

          Slightly confused by your last point, about the org itself, could you expand?

          The Organisation? No, it’s not paid work.

          This seems to imply to me that the organisation could never be “hurt” because it’s volunteer run, which I doubt is what you were saying.

            I certainly can. I was referring to waste of time and question of efficiency.

            Nothing they had written was incorrect, on a site the size of Wikipedia, adding more true but functionally useless pages is only ever a (very minor) benefit. If there were only 1000 pages, sure, it’d be clutter. But it is already the case that to find anything you have to search for it, meaning it is a net positive to create those pages.

      Not all British comedy translates across borders, but she’s absolutely hilarious.

      I will admit I was hesitant to even start watching Cunk on Earth because I wasn’t in the mood for British, but boy was I glad I did.

      Y’all can’t hide. We’re out there on YouTube watching old episodes of screenwipe. We’re coming for your panel shows. There’s nothing you can do about it.

      She’s the type of British that North Americans like. North Americans appreciate the witty British wordplay, but can’t stand the “righto, cheerio, pip pip, beans on toast” business.

    Wouldn’t they be more like chemical weapons factories?
