Blueberry heir loses libel suit against drunken lothario

I Have to Agree 

He looks like he's being fisted by a large ape.

Will you get sued, now?

CDA decision may be wrong 

IANAL, but, IIRC, section 230 of the CDA only protects the operators of an unmoderated site, or one in which posts are never deleted. Once posts are deleted by the operator without a court order or some other compulsion, you become responsible for content on your site. Of course, apart from the comment about looking like he was being fisted by a large ape, the CDA is not actually relevant in this case.

Can we write a story in a less professional way? 

Seriously, why does this story only have a "More by this author" link? I want to vote for the opposite!

Fisted - Ape 

Yep, thats certainly the expression of a man being fisted by an ape. The question is was it a lowland gorilla or a highland gorilla, inquiring minds need to know !

Anonymous Coward

Yep... 

...DEFINITELY has the expression of Mighty Joe Young's glove puppet...

It's a whole new world 

Thank you for introducing me to the world of Anthony DiMeo III - a great new way to waste a Friday morning.

Is it just me, or just he look and write remarkably like Aleksey "Impossible is Nothing" Vayner?

I disagree totally 

That face says "buggered with a rhino horn" without a shadow of doubt.

IT Angle 

Not sure the IT angle one on this one. Is it the Website, or the expression he has on his face of being fisted by a gorilla? The reason I ask is I've seen many a time this look, usually after the consultants hand a project over to the poor buggers who have run it...

The IT angle is 

To do with laws about posting things on websites and stuff.

Where is the iPhone angle though?

Seriously....

One expression 

Surely if you're only going to have one expression it'd be a better one than that.

He looks like he's about to start drooling. Reminded me of Zoolander.

Also is it actually possible to be shorter than Sly Stallone.

I don't think the model credentials hold up...

Ape Complaint? 

Apparently there was a complaint from the gorilla in question here. The picture seems to have disappeared from the website.

I collect gorilla fisting rapture pictures as a hobby. I am soooooo disappointed.

Will somebody please... 

...*PLEASE* think of the gorillas!

Well the article did say that the booze ran out almost immediately.
