Friday Q&A

Questionable Retribution

Greetings, crickets and trolls. Welcome to another edition of the Friday Q&A. It was a pretty boring week without the inane blather of Edward Boner to pass the time. Looks like that shit-for-brains has finally found a way to take revenge on me. Reading his bungled attempts at sentence construction had become my favorite way to pass a lazy afternoon. Now that he's gone, I have a lot of extra time on my hands. At least I'll be able to answer plenty of your idiotic questions. And by "plenty," of course, I mean "three."

Q: What happened to the Picture Maker?


A: A couple days ago, the Picture Maker widget started fucking up. I thought it was a fluke at first, but after some brief observation, I have determined that the problems are the result of sabotage by hackers or perhaps a large unicorn. At any rate, I have removed that application until all the bugs can be sorted out. Keep reading for further updates.

Q: Is Boner really retired?

A: It sure looks like it. What a sad day for the Picture Clinic! Boner was always my biggest reader, sometimes checking the site for updates as many as forty times a day. But what's become of him now? He might be trying to learn the English language, or perhaps even Photoshop. Whatever it is, I truly hope he enjoys himself, and that his dick gets caught in a bear trap shortly before maggots eat his eyeballs.

Q: Do you have any more info on Manipster?

A:
I sure do. Regular Clinic readers will recall I recently brought you the story of Manipster, a site which tries to display the results of Fark PS contests. Unfortunately, it has its share of problems and a fundamental lack of purpose. For example, this week I discovered that the site doesn't even give an accurate vote total. Any score shown on Manipster is bound to be off by at least 20%. At first I thought the site was just slow to update, but now I can see that even the oldest contest displayed is affected. So in other words, the site is utterly useless. I mean, why give the option of sorting by votes if the tally isn't right?

That's all for this time, gentle reader. Keep watching this blog for further updates. I'm working on contacting the author of Manipster, and will be bringing you an exclusive interview in an upcoming post. Until then, you can pass the time by leaving some comments for Boner at Fark the Vote. I'm sure he'd love to hear from you, even if he's too much of a pathetic bitch to respond.

Stay tuned for more leisure suggestions from the Doctor!
