- mattverso, on 10/11/2007, -4/+86Some people are just stupendously stupid.
- igyigyigy, on 10/11/2007, -16/+5Amen to that. :)
- z00k, on 10/11/2007, -18/+6So... Anyone want to help get this story to a few other publishing agencies? ... Well, if you feel "Helpful"
http://www.pmwatch.org/pmw/contact/media.asp - bluezinc, on 10/11/2007, -2/+290Company to man: "Oh yeah? Well now you're gay"
Man: "Aww dammit..." - BassMastr, on 10/11/2007, -26/+5"Some people are just stupendously stupid."
Speaking of which...since you wanted me to prove your point even further.
When I first read the title I thought a guy had some bad house guests and was complaining about them in his blog so then his friends put him on the site yada yada yada... - Cwo655321, on 10/11/2007, -8/+19I just submitted wordpress to every gay dating site out there
- DivisibleByZero, on 10/11/2007, -2/+58Like all the assclowns who post peoples' contact info on digg...
- dogs, on 10/11/2007, -7/+15Wow, digg effect in action!

Now to go watch Countdown, and PS i am an Olberman fan, I just hope the humor here isn't lost on the digg community... - DWNamu, on 10/11/2007, -43/+2REALIZE... with a Z! Is there a particular country that influences this? Realise shows up wrong on the digg spell checker, I don't get it.
- TheTaoOfBill, on 10/11/2007, -6/+46"Now to go watch Countdown, and PS i am an Olberman fan, I just hope the humor here isn't lost on the digg community..."
The humor is lost when you have to explain yourself - drinkGreen, on 10/11/2007, -7/+2Corporate Ownage
- RexKwando, on 10/11/2007, -8/+3Brilliant!!
- DivisibleByZero, on 10/11/2007, -21/+54@dwnamu
Realise = British version. Realize = USA, and therefore superior.
But don't be such an arse about it. It's not so bloody bad to spell things differently on the other side of the pond. Complaining about it just shows your true colours. Keep it up and you'll be on a lift straight to hell. If you're still not happy about it, you'll have to wait your turn to complain. The queue forms to the left. Just relax and smoke a fag while you wait. - cheesegrater22, on 10/11/2007, -20/+20For the curious, other things that make the USA superior:
Poverty, violations of the Geneva convention, poor education, Creationism, gun crime and Fox News. - johnhp, on 10/11/2007, -10/+10What, is this some sports game where we'll all tell each other how our home team is the best?
Don't be stupid. No country is generally superior. Superiority of countries can only be applied to specific concepts. For instance, health care in Canada is superior to health care in the U.S. But take another issue, like development of technology, and the U.S. is superior.
Just because %51 percent of the U.S. are retards doesn't mean the other %49 aren't just as smart or anti-Bush as you and the people you know. - mdhauke, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1must have been Ziosys
- surfacewound, on 10/11/2007, -1/+4"REALIZE... with a Z! Is there a particular country that influences this? Realise shows up wrong on the digg spell checker, I don't get it."
I know right? What about "colour?" If so the internets must be breaking. RUN TO THE HILLS! - LogicBomB, on 10/11/2007, -1/+2If the internet could be considered a country, would "teh" then mean the same as "the"?
Just saying... - airquotes, on 10/11/2007, -1/+0Now when people use webmail such as gmail hotmail; or yahoo mail, you cant get their IP because the message headeers only show the mail server, right? So the reason he could reverse DNS them is because they were using their own mail server within their companies subnet?
- lynchtp, on 10/11/2007, -8/+0Probably should add Damien and Mulley as well as Sky Handling to the article if you want it to show up when people search for it....
- has2k1, on 10/11/2007, -2/+154As sad and as unethical it is, I admit I laughed out loud at the title. I deserve to be buried.
- silverchrysalis, on 10/11/2007, -8/+67no, you don't. i laughed so hard a snot bubble was born.
- Crispin, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3It's certainly a more creative response than a cease and desist letter.
- busch30pack, on 10/11/2007, -1/+321At least they didn't sign him up for an AOL account.
- bushawa, on 10/11/2007, -6/+41I do not think I have laughed that hard in a long time!
- amnesiac096, on 10/11/2007, -49/+2He could just cancel an AOL account and get 3 or more months for free...I know AOL sucks, but it would be free. So all-in-all, he would come ahead.
- Nimphious, on 10/11/2007, -5/+28@amnesiac
...no. Since when has being associated or even offered an AOL service, free or not, considered being "ahead"? - seanc6610, on 10/11/2007, -4/+12AOL = Free. AOL no longer charges for their "service" (they should be paying their users for still sticking around).
- amnesiac096, on 10/11/2007, -10/+6@ Nimphious and everyone else,
it was a joke about the past AOL, if you didn't get it, then oh well. learn to not criticize ***** so quickly. why are ppl so anal about ***** - blahblahgirl, on 10/11/2007, -1/+3@amnesiac096
because your jokes arn't funny - amnesiac096, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1@blahblahgirl
ouch, very hurtful. thanks for being honest tho. i'll make sure to work on my jokes, so next time i don't get dugg down.
- IShouldBeWorkin, on 10/11/2007, -9/+2at least this guy seems to be getting rousing support from the internet masses, you'd be suprised how much taht can help.
just dont go posting sky's phone number and calling them thieves or we'll have another digg mob harrasment case on our hands - fuzzmeister, on 10/11/2007, -7/+1Wow, that's mature and everything.
- TheLoneWolf071, on 10/11/2007, -14/+2lol?
- thewebguy, on 10/11/2007, -14/+3WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
- lardigg, on 10/11/2007, -6/+7Just goes to show that t'Internet is NOT anonymous and that every action has its consequences. Wondering outloud if Sky Handling have an "Acceptable Internet Usage Policy"
- TPsmindkill, on 10/11/2007, -7/+1That proved his point.
- masterkenobi, on 10/11/2007, -8/+22Lol did you guys notice the Google ads at the top of the Digg page for this article? :D
- tomato3017, on 10/11/2007, -14/+98No because we don't use internet explorer, we use firefox with adblock plus....keeping the net ad free for me for 2 years.
- ed67, on 10/11/2007, -17/+31Who still uses IE anyway? I can't remember the last time I used it, happily going on with my life using Ubuntu and Firefox........
- jeffeb3, on 10/11/2007, -8/+33hmmm... Are there any filters that remove all the ads but the snorg t-Shirt girls?
- randomlande, on 10/11/2007, -6/+7lol! "black gay men dating"
- TheTaoOfBill, on 10/11/2007, -5/+62"Who still uses IE anyway?"
75% of internet users - masterkenobi, on 10/11/2007, -6/+11FYI I use Firefox, but didn't have the AdBlock Plus extension installed. But thanks for the tip! (no more Snorg t-shirt girls *sniff*)
- tapo, on 10/11/2007, -13/+10I don't use AdBlock plus. If I don't see the ads, Digg doesn't get money. If Digg doesn't get money, Digg dies.
And I cry a little. - captinherb, on 10/11/2007, -6/+32@tapo:
>>"If I don't see the ads, Digg doesn't get money. "
No, if you don't click ads, Digg doesn't get money. Blocking ads you're not going to click anyways help keep the tubes clear - cheesegrater22, on 10/11/2007, -8/+6@thetaoofbill
"Who still uses IE anyway?"
75% of virus users - Adma1, on 10/11/2007, -6/+4I use a mix of IE and Firefox, depending on what kind of mood I'm in, usually if I'm going to be doing anything else whilst browsing, I find firefox has such a huge memory footprint that IE is better for me. However if what I'm on the computer to do is browse, it's a tossup.
/raises shield - fuzzmeister, on 10/11/2007, -2/+19Considering I make my income from AdSense, I feel obligated not to block other people's ads.
- PureLegend, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Amen to that, ed67!
- nicktripp, on 10/11/2007, -0/+6@captinherb
"No, if you don't click ads, Digg doesn't get money."
Actually, most ad programs work on a combination of views + clicks. So yes, using AdBlock does take away revenue from many of the sites you visit regularly. Believe it or not, all of this "stuff" isn't free.
It baffles me that people want everything on the net for free with no ads. I mean, I understand the want, but I don't understand how anyone thinks that's reasonable.
- Error601, on 10/11/2007, -2/+6More like passive-aggressive employee he yelled at did it.
- bigboehmboy, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1Yeah honestly, it could be anyone in the company and was probably a prank by a co-worker. what would a boss acheive by doing this? You think it would get him to stop his complaining in his blog?
- smurf22, on 10/11/2007, -3/+11it could only be worse if they signed him up for xm radio.
- kweee, on 10/11/2007, -1/+89I was expecting this to end:
"...Guy finds man of his dreams." - mdraper, on 10/11/2007, -2/+1This is hillarious! Go Get 'em!
- VocalFX, on 10/11/2007, -4/+0nice
- TheAkolyte, on 10/11/2007, -4/+28Wordpress, you digg it, we ***** on it.
- lardigg, on 10/11/2007, -7/+1Looks like site is suffering a mild Digg effect - but plz bear with it and Digg anyway... This will make alot of the main press and deserves to be covered. Keep digg'n this story in this David (or Damien) versus Goliath
- PaulP82, on 10/11/2007, -2/+3that is awesome.
- roadtripper, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5dugg because the headline alone made me laugh. story only made it more amusing.
- mulley, on 10/11/2007, -2/+3Heh. ticket raised with my webhost.
- mannymix03, on 10/11/2007, -10/+4i can't believe i'm going to make this comment, but......
I believe the server took it up the ass- 8270369, on 10/11/2007, -6/+2Yikes. So if a woman figured in the story you'd say "I believe the server took it up the *****"? Nice. Being gay is so funny. Let's all make jokes about ass ***** now. Because it's funny.
- qwertydvorak, on 10/11/2007, -0/+8@8270369: so what crawled up your ass to make you so cranky ?
/couldn't help myself - MewTwo, on 10/11/2007, -0/+4you have to be gay to take it up the ass? I don't think anybody actually seriously believes that. Then you must be SEXIST, automatically the server is male? Women aren't smart enough to be servers?
you bastard-
- jiminizer, on 10/11/2007, -0/+21i wonder whether this was done by the same person who did their website? http://www.skyhandlingpartner.ie/
i wouldnt expect the person who produced that (presumably in publisher) to even know what an IP address is..- clownshoez, on 10/11/2007, -1/+9thanks, that website made my browser crash.
- jiminizer, on 10/11/2007, -5/+0@ clownshoez
then take that as evidence enough as to the incompetence of their IT guy(s) - underdog5004, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8Yeah, FF almost crashed (beryl dimmed it to show that it was inactive) but it came back in about 20 seconds or so...
EDIT - Ooooh, cool marquee! - wildsnake, on 10/11/2007, -8/+1Are you using Firefox, if so that's why it crashed. Try Safari
- ummmmm, on 10/11/2007, -1/+8http://duggmirror.com/business_finance/Guy_blogs_about_bad_company_company_adds_him_to_gay_dating_sites/

- mulley, on 10/11/2007, -2/+9Moving to a more powerful server as we speak. Thanks to my webhost,
- riverguardian, on 10/11/2007, -2/+5The context:
Day three of no bag. It seems they say my bag is in Cork yet nobody in Cork Airport says it is. In their infinite ***** wisdom, yesterday my bag was in Dublin when they told me it was flown to London. From Dublin they thought the best route to Cork is to ship if via Birmingham and then Birmingham to Cork. It never got to Birmingham. They don’t know where it is. *****. I’ve asked to speak to a supervisor and they’re giving me the run-around.
I got cross with the man on the phone. Not many people have seen me lose it. All of Cork Airport did when I called him on my phone. My phone that is about to die because the charger for it is in my ***** missing suitcase. They tried to pass the buck to Aer Lingus who I called to and were amazingly helpful. Thanks Piaras from Aer Lingus Cork. At least he was able to figure ***** out. It seems like it never went to Birmingham as it never was put into some special status that bags without traveling owners have. He thinks it is still in Dublin, the ***** in Sky Handling Partners don’t know where it is. I don’t appreciate being constantly lied to by Sky Handling Partners and SAS are going to get the full brunt of my anger in the morning. What quality control?

- darksyde, on 10/11/2007, -1/+5These companies have to learn one way or another that poor service just isn't acceptable, and that continued poor service will cost them money. And by these companies, I'm generalizing and referring to any company that thinks they can ***** on their customers.
- landmonster, on 10/11/2007, -1/+1And the ***** pissy weather we have.
- Ulrezaj, on 10/11/2007, -0/+11All I have to say after reading through the comments on his blog is that the Irish know how to swear way better than we do.
- cheesegrits, on 10/11/2007, -3/+9If you had to live in Ireland, you would learn to swear pretty well also. Especially when you saw your paycheck.
- mulley, on 10/11/2007, -2/+8and wait til we get drunk... or is it wait til we get sober...
- uscnir, on 10/11/2007, -3/+1Some of the words are considered quite obscene outside of Ireland and by women but Irish men use them in a very versatile way. We can use the same 'swearword' as a term of complete contempt and as a term of endearment!

"The Sky Handling Partner Quality Department aims at improving the overall quality of service delivered to our Customers.
Our internal capability to monitor our operations and the services we deliver on a daily basis is an essential tool to identify potential improvements and to implement recovery plans."
Does anyone else find this kind of ironic, or is it just the normal corporate BS? - Ricapar, on 10/11/2007, -4/+1Hey, at least they didn't drop him a lawsuit.

Dugg! - rebump, on 10/11/2007, -2/+7Reading the comments on that site is like listening to a South Park episode (one with Pip). Did those Irish lads post all these whilst swilling Guiness at the local pub? No need to read their comments, summarized below:
"***** them up more"
"rozzers" (media?)
"twatting twatters"
"so ***** them. and do it hard"
"clueless *****"
"totally and utterly ***** disgraceful"
"up *****'s creek"
"ditchbrained *****" (my favorite)
"are *****"
"dirty ***** bastards"
"anally rape...pineapple"
"wankers"
"some big doo doo"
"clever dick"
"gay dating sites"
"NAIL ‘EM TO THE ***** WALL I SAY THE BAG LOOSING *****"
"can of whoopass"
"larf"
"keep on blogging"
"bob"
"Take em down to China town"
"is a pussy"
"some *****...wankers"
"prick"
"sickhead"
"big, smelly cheesy schlong"
"assholes...crude"
"Go postal on their asses"
On second thought...go read their comments!!!- st0nes, on 10/11/2007, -0/+3rozzers = police
- hereticmessiah, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1Actually, it's more that Irish people aren't as offended by colourful language as people from other countries tend to be.

Long story short, I sodomized a four year old boy to death and then stuffed his lungs full of coke for use as a pinata at a gay orgy I hosted at the Sea Org (haha, sea orgy at Sea Org).
