I'm so happy The Escapist got rid of Jim Sterling, Son so we could get high quality Russian National Enquirer level reporting here.

I know y'all need clicks for da' ads but seriously, not coming back here again if this is the future of Escapist news bits.
Agreed. I did the right thing and reported the original post. Its clearly spam.

Update: Likely a hoax. Yeah no shit, I could have told you that just from reading the headline. How did this ever get posted here in the first place? What next, news updates on people who use Ouija boards to communicate with their deceased pets on the other side?

So, when can I expect an article about those cropcircles I found in my potted basil? Also, the unicorn under my bed is still waiting for your call. It really wants to give you an interview.

Jesus, Escapist... Get your shit together.

If you have better articles, we'd love to see them :) By all means, send one in. Is the unicorn available for an interview by yourself? No?


OT: Fat kid. It's sweat. Electricity doesn't make fleshy things magnetic. Still funny though.

Shame that it's a hoax. Then again, if that was really happening, I would be really worried for the kid. He might of been slowly dying of something more scientifically painful.

Have a little fun man.

Escapist posts these kinds of articles all the time. We know it would most likely be fake, but hell, it's fun to talk about.

I'm right there with ya. It's nice to see something silly once in a while. It's a nice break from all the hot button articles.

Yeah, these kinds of hoaxes about people developing magnetic powers are common.

Lol. Really? A warning for a little sarcastic criticism? Nice.
For a low content post more likely.

If anything, the original story should get a warning. Even after 3 days this fat fuck is still on front page, while the news about Philae landing on a comet never was. It makes me sick every time I open up the Escapist.

It's still on front page because people are still commenting on this story. Like I'm doing right now.

Once the thread dies, you will see the other stories crop up.

I mean, no need to get real nasty about it :/

Why is it whenever I see stories like this it is always a fat boy?
Because they are the stickiest?

Yeah, no, defiantly because they are the stickiest.
