- domr, on 10/12/2007, -0/+43If it were a real story, it'd be funny. And a little scary.
(But it's not.) - nixonrichard, on 10/12/2007, -1/+43I'm so tired of all these little girls preying on adults.
- krono6, on 10/12/2007, -2/+33I wonder if this will work with strippers.
- cormano, on 10/12/2007, -1/+28amazing that anyone took that article seriously.
- dbug, on 10/12/2007, -1/+27People still use myspace?
- shark72, on 10/12/2007, -0/+24"The bands that fell for this must be tools..."
That loud cracking sound you heard was the needle of the irony meter hitting the pin at near-light speed. - gfindlay, on 10/12/2007, -1/+20I love how the article cautions:
"If you think the record executive is a "nice person" then you aren't dealing with a real executive. It's common knowledge that all record executives are *****." lol - Skullpop, on 10/12/2007, -1/+17Awwh.... *****.
- jornk, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15That made me giggle like a little girl.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+15@sockpuppets:
You must be a complete moron. BBSpot is fake news, like the Onion. It even says it at the bottom of the page: "BBspot is a satirical news and comedy source and meant to be funny. If you are easily offended, gullible or don't have a sense of humor we suggest you go elsewhere." - cakestick, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13Hey look, somebody wrote gullible on the ceiling!
- gharding, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13It will if you promise them coke instead of record contracts!
- EbowUK, on 10/12/2007, -1/+11OMFG
I cannot believe the people that haven't grasped the story is a fake.
brb, off to add bonsaikitten.com as a "shocking cruel website" to the story queue and ***** myself laughing as people discuss how cruel it is.
Digg. Funniest place ever. - GalacticCmdr, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8People still believe stuff on BBSpot.
- noobalicious, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6Dude. Do it. I bet we could get that ***** on the front page and maybe Diggnation. I bet Kevin and Alex would have a ***** field day with the "retards who dugg this story". I'd digg it just for comedic value.
- Technopundit, on 10/12/2007, -2/+713 year old girls ARE terrorists.
- sockpuppets, on 10/12/2007, -2/+6No tool signed with Zoo Entertainment, it must be some other band.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Who else forgot for a second that all of BBSpot is fake? (raises hand)
So yea, this story is making it around the office now, cause I ain't gonna be able to stop it now...
Funny story, though. - weprin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4"Ashley was grounded so she couldn't talk to us on the phone for this report."
LOL! - econofast, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4These comments make me want to never ever ever read another comment on Digg. Ever again. Ever. I hope that none of you are registered to vote.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Digg link: http://digg.com/offbeat_news/How_can_anyone_do_this_to_kittens
:D - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4I think i saw something like that on dateline.
- EbowUK, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Ok, added it. SAVE THE KITTENS FROM THIS HORROR!
pmsl. - zzz@tkz, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3"She locked us in the basement" "It wasn't that bad"
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3How about your "Stay free in Toyko and have sex...as long as you're white! (w/ pics)" sunmission a few days ago?
Should everyone who dugg that story be put up against the wall too? - bmonet, on 10/12/2007, -3/+4The Who I'd like to meet from the myspace page is interesting.
"About me:
I am a very powerful executive at Sony Music and I can sign your band.
Who I'd like to meet:
Other bands, preferably with cute guys in them." - mjoj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Orly?
- cakestick, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4I, on the other hand, bow in envy to the bands that are too awesome to use Myspace _or_ proper grammar.
- biffsputnik, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I'm in... can't wait for the comments section to light up with outrage
- diggeredoo, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2hahahah the last paragraph rules
- TimRogers, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Oh! Where?
- thepolkapunk, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I wonder if this could work in real life...
- EbowUK, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Is "diggtard" an officially recognised term of endearment for the poor gullible Digg user?
Muhahahaha :) - chabuhi, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2This problem comes and goes with Digg on Opera it seems.
Link out to the category index and you can bury it there. - naiku, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Quote: I guess we should've realized she was a fake when she promised us free studio time and said she loved our music.
and she loved our music? Lol
Awesome Article. - ATLBeer, on 10/12/2007, -8/+9This just in... Swift Eats Babies!

- shampoovta, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2"Overclocked Jesus Performs Miracles Faster" Ha ha ha I'm book marking this site look at that headline, that was funny.
- HIPAA_Notic, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That was hilarious. . . not bonzai kitten hilarious. . .but hilarious
- kitkatsavvy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3I can't bury this story because I am using Opera, and everytime I try to click the "bury" button, it mysteriously keeps moving on me!! LOL I know i am reporting a slight bug with the bury button. I hope someone can fix it for Opera users - thanks...
- phR3d, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Funny!

- RandomSkratch, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2There's the pole... *points to broom*
- siszam, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This is the funniest 'article' I've read in a long time. Back in the day if my sister could've gotten away with it, she would have done it too.
- fire207, on 01/03/2009, -0/+0rofl shes like 16 now. She probably moved onto like actors. even if this is old it still made me rofl
