    Are you familiar with the term ‘tongue in cheek’? Or ‘hyperbole’? Cuz - I’m just sayin- I really doubt that even the yellow-est of rags would expect people to believe that we’re only a “bite my shiny metal ass” away from triggering a T2 style ‘Judgement Day’… I’d say it’s simply far more likely they were simply being facetious.

    Now if it was NewsMax, on the other hand…

            … I’m sorry, but what in the actual incoherence is that even supposed to mean?

              Fair. I dont know exactly either anymore tbh. I shouldnt write english in the morning before my first coffee. Sorry.

              But theses kind of jokes just seem to be the style on theregister. I dont like them. I wont click or comment on theregister articles anymore. Better for everyone.
