Mercury I love you guys and I love big insane ideas but this ruined my lunch break. You effectively took away letters and cartoons? And you left out the best parts of the internet (namely, pictures of nudity and blood)! Cute idea but I AM TEH SAD.
The last two pictures are giving a 401 error to users outside your building. (You need to change the admin.portlandmercury.com to a http://www.portlandmercury.com and they’ll work.)
Mercury Fail.
Great job, really enjoyed not being able to read my favorite sections, the error messages, effectively all of the annoying shit of the internet rolled into one stupid printed issue. Props. Keep up the good work. Fuckers.
Uh-oh, guys! Newspapers have discovered where we’ve all been hiding for the past 5 years.
So much work put into this for so little return. le sigh!
ugh, here we have yet another example of how far your head’s are up your asses, Mercury staff. I’m sure you thought it was real cute to put the error message over the comics section, and I’m sure you were prepared for some pissed off readers because of that as well. But, do us all a favor and stop trying to be cute. Deliver the news that you know how to deliver, but with only a touch of your esoteric hipster humor from now on. Seriously, it makes me want to fucking puke at how hard you guys try to be cool. Fucking give it a motherfucking rest, and put down the Pabst!
