How to confuse an idiot.

[Perfect Balance]

I lol'ed.

 

[Loon]

There's a thread for this. And it didn't take long to figure it out.

HAR HAR THE VIDEO DOESN'T WORK.
Oh darn, I spoiled your fun.

I'd never seen anything like that before so I figured it was something new.

 

[Loon]

Never seen a picture?

 

[HACKr]

I hate you.

 

[Boz Mon]

Ha, I fell for it. I was trying to mess with my settings on firefox to see why it wouldnt play

 

[Perfect Balance]

Never seen a picture?

In that case there should only be about 5 or so threads in this section.

I thought it deserved it's own thread.

EDIT: ahA! it still works! 9 views and 8 replies. 'tis effective.

Still not as good as:-

"Put 3 shovels against a wall & tell him to take his pick"

I didn't fall for it, I knew there would be something fishy about it when the thread was titled "How to confuse an idiot". It was a bit obvious really.

Damn it thats annoying. I accidentally read this thread before pressing the video, or what i thought was a video. Thats nasty....

 

[MP]

Managed to get me to click twice on the 'play' button before I realised I was the idiot being confused.

Thankfully, the maker of this 'video' was clever enough to use a PNG instead of a JPG to prevent traitorous compression artefacts around the video controls. So no self-pwnage there, surprising actually.

 

[Muzaffar]

WTF? 👎
Looks quite cool really.... but yeah, this doesn't really deserve its own thread. Only Bret could get away with it.

 

[Legendary]

Yes, you wouldnt want to make the colours all funny. It looks like the real thing.

 

[tupacrulez]

lol the play button is a bit old. IIRC, they have a new embedded video play button.

 

[Alex.]

Me? Well I simply looked at it and thought, yeh that looks like a picture

No I clocked it a couple of times and referred to the title and got it within about 10 seconds of clicking on this thread.

 

[Bram Turismo]

I actually clicked on the play button, then I read PB's commentary again, then I laughed very hard

 

[superberkut]

Darn!

I should have learned soon enough that it was a trick...

How do you keep an idiot in suspense?

Tell you later.

 

[Neon_SRT]

Your tricks can't catch me...

Good ole' thread preview.

(Actually, I saw it before on another forum...where I fell for it. )

I thought I had posted it in the comedy corner. Thanks for moving it I guess.

I noticed that too, so I actually entered the thread expecting a picture.

Also, youtube videos are blocked here at work, if it was a video I would only see a blank square.

 

[Small_Fryz]

put him in a round room and tell him to sit in a corner....


BTW i clicked it once.. then it didnt work i knew haha. Nice job 👍

 

[mcsqueegy]

Almost had me there... then I realised as I was about to click it... very creative!
