Although I completely disagree on Darwin's theories, I think both the first and the last options fit this situation fine.

Obviously this woman was mental, so my opinion is that she needs therapy. None of the poll options seem appropriate.

Put the full rubbish address within the first URL-tag and whatever text you'd like to appear, instead of the address, between the two tags.
Like this:

Code: Select all

[url=http://full.rubbish.address]Full rubbish story[/url]

Those bears are so cute.

I was relieved that the famous Knut did not have anything to do with this attack. I have a lot of respect for that bear.

If you're linking to the Daily Mail, does it really matter?! :P

I like the comments/responses to that story, read like they'd been generated by a perl script.

Well I know there are people who think they can pull off to the side of a country road, walk onto a grass field, and start petting a bunch of cows. Its not long before they realize the cows are not pets.

Another vote for #1, Darwin.

Well I'm a city boy at heart but I now live in the country and must say I've never heard of any cow attacks, unprovoked or otherwise. What kind of threat is posed by a cow if you pet it?

Im not saying they attacked, that doesn't mean they actually like it though.
