Unfortunate Lounge thread title juxtapositions....

[ForrestGump]

Often notice these, and they can be real highlights of a DU experience.

For example, the one that prompted this post goes like this:

I can't remember the last time plcdude Thu Feb-01-07 02:47 PM
"The Test indicated that semen found in the goat belonged to a man." matcom Thu Feb-01-07 02:45 PM

It's not really a classic, as these things go, but it'll do in the absence of anything else.


Here're some more from the current crop...not too much out there right now, kind of all quiet on the juxtaposition front, but you never know when a classic one will come together. I think my favorite of those I've found in the last few minutes is the "bi" one:

See any out there?

From GD or any other forum, for that matter...heck, maybe it'd give some of us a reason to head over to GD again.




EDIT: these juxtapositions can yield some true insight in to real social issues, too, in this case the often ridiculous results of legal proceedings:
