Front page image punnery is top shelf.Long may it continue as trademark Yellow Fever-style humour.Cracks me up!
Agreed. Always enjoy trying to work out the connection on some of the 'odder' ones.
I did log in this morning and see the Jordan calls it a day and obv i read too many woman;s mags cause immediately though oh no she's left that kickboxer in a dress
tbf I used up all the Katie Price ones when the All Whites played Jordan last year.
There's a front page?
correct. Lift your game LG. I had to go through pages and pages of Google images to fine a good one of her.
In my defence she's not really a great actress, but agreed, my game needs lifting more than Evan Bergers.
Next I'll be expected to recognize David Spade.
Probably be a good call for the Dompost to follow suit. Im sick of sad ladies and grumpy criminals (otherway round?) in the papers. YFs is better. Also like how its always up to date. Good work!
I'm going to tell my editor that we should have piss take photos to go in our paper alongside stories. Hmmm, mining in the Coromandel...
Todays Reddy related pun works on so many levels

Quite like the Winston one.
For those of you that never visit our front page we have a bit of an ongoing giggle with the images we attach to news items.
I thought they were worth a thread...just for laughs.
In the news today, Hard News has ignored the obvious Jordan pun and gone for a much less racy flag option.
I have gone for some pretty boring sheep and cow alternatives for my Taranaki football stories and Greenie has gotten desperate and used the McCain fries logo for the story about re-signing big John.
So here's your chance...are we funny...are we lame? You be the judge.

You think Micheal Jordan is racy? Learn something new every day...
I love the images, the cheesier the better.
As cheesy as is absolutely possible.
I'm probably not the best judge of humour, but I like them. I enjoyed the flag joke, but then I like geography and maps and flags and stuff. Like I said, I'm not the best judge of anything really.

News/Feverish = Funny
Smithy = Lame

The participation certificate for Waikato FC was clever, by the way.
I actually quite liked the recent poll punnery. News items can be funny too sometimes.
With punnery??
Love it, cheesy puns are my favourite.
They are great; I was kinda thinking about starting a thread on it ...
I have always liked them and some of those articles are an excellent read. Yes, you do have a sense of humour and yes, it is appreciated.
I don't get the latest one though. Some random blonde woman. Is she meant to be a Dane (blonde hair and blue eyes (from memory)) while it talks about Reid - or am I missing it entirely.
pretty sure its Tara REID. geddit?
correct. Lift your game LG. I had to go through pages and pages of Google images to fine a good one of her.
Needless to say, 2ndBest, the pic made my day.
Always a fan, keep it up.

Has anyone ever seen 'British Balls' magazine from Australia? It is usually found at backpacker hostels and is to update Brits on news from back home. It is truly great at photo and news item punnery.
One that I recall is a story about Ozzy Osbourne - the accompanying photo was of WWE's The Undertaker!
Some good football ones too but I can't remember any. If anyone is over in Oz, try and get a hold of a copy, they are great. I think they are weekly too.
love the YF poll picture
The John McCain pics in story related to Jon McKain always cracks me up! Very clever

It's good, love what you guys did with Greenacre, Personal Favourite.
Love it, far more amusing than just sticking the images from the actual articles on there.

from me. Don't always get them right off the bat but that's half the fun.

If only you were that much fun to flat with.
I was wondering how long until we saw a pic of Winston Peters haha
