Cramped movie marquee makes for funny titles

Picture%201-43.jpg

Stefan Jones says: "One of the local (Beaverton, OR) movie theaters is a dowdy, badly located concrete box from the beginning of the multiplex era. "The Regal Cinemas chain shows some special interest films there, plus popular films nearing the end of their run. The marquee space is severly limited, resulting in sublime concatanations like the one shown in the picture." Link

I just saw this one on CNN.com

Nut-cracking gorilla surprises scientists
http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/africa/10/18/nutcracking.gorillas.ap/index.html

I bet the guy that found out this gorilla was a "nut cracker" was REALLY surprised!

Someone else share your favorite unintentionally funny headline.

There were these two sub-heads in that article -
Nut-cracking was spontaneous

And

Other gorillas seen using tools

But here are a couple of oldies but goldies.
