News Corps Blimey

Being sans-Fairfax, I borrowed a co-workers Herlad Sun for a bit of a read. And I am struck by the horrific puns in their headlines. The following are from today alone:

(An article about the Mt Merapi volcano)
Volcano's all fired up.

(A picture of an owl for no apparent reason)
Who's been up late? (What noise do owls make? Yeah, painful isn't it?)

(An article with Prince Harry is a rediculous hat)
I say, Harry, spiffing titfer.

(A V/Line train 'meeting' - possibly an accident, the photo is accompanied with one-sentence with no real information)
Getting carriage away.

(Article about hiding water pipes from public view, and display health warnings in stores.)
Bongs may take a hit.

(Photo of Howard pretending to plant a tree by shoveling dirt from the top onto the top of the soil)
Howard shows the digger spirit.

(Article showing lions lying around a house)
Lion around the house.

(Article about John Cleese's involvement in an anti-racism in soccer campaign.)
Ironing out the fawlts.

To the brainstormers who came up with those little wonders, why are you wasting your life? You do not bring joy to the world, you bring pain. Lots of horrible pain.
