And now, an actual headline from the AP:

Despite warnings, tornadoes kill 55

Watch it there, AP, you have a dangling modifier! Or did they really try to talk the tornadoes out of killing 55 people? Hmm... Egads I have a morbid sense of humor. I should be saddened that 55 people died but instead I'm ridiculing the headline. *sigh*

*giggles* That's along the lines of:

Cow Kills Farmer With Axe
and
Include Children When Cooking

etc.

"Tornadoes promised reduced sentence if they turn themselves in."


'Sokay, man. It's not like you're mocking death. You're just mocking bad grammar. You can do that, and still be sad about the loss.
