Paris and Lara share a cell with rude speeder

Bubba the Kid still at large

Last week the BOFH got BOFHed. You were shocked, disbelieving and expectant:

Does Lex Luthor defeat Superman? What about the Joker, does he overcome Batman? Will the Silver Surfer beat the Fantastic Four? Has civilisation failed this Friday morning casting us all back to barbarism?

NO!

What is going on?

Jamie Mitchell


Ok, I have been an avid reader of BOFH since 2000, I have digged up the early material from University before he started working for the man, and I can without irony and in complete and utter sincernes say I'm looking forward to the revenge...!

But this HAS to me the mother of all revenges put togheter BOFH&PFY style.... They have been played before, but not this hard - someone has to make an example!

BOFH rides again!

This affront to the natural order cannot be tolerated. We need the BOFH&PFY to strike back and strike back hard.... for all those of us that have to put up with users, bosses, sales depts, HR and payroll for real.

This is the Bastard Operator from Hell. I find your lack of faith disturbing. There will be retribution. The world will be set right, or at least massively in his favor anyway. I'm concerned about you though... Is your faith so weak that you must whine about it not being fair, about it not being possible, or can you not see the bigger plan. The BOFH will rise from this (and someone else most likely will wind up with the oscilliscope shoved up their nether regions). Relax.

This revenge is going to b a MASSACRE! I can't wait!

I'll have to paint my monitor red so my wife won't notice the blood :)

For those of you on various edges of your seats, the thrilling conclusion is here.


Manchester police recently arrested a much-ogled videogames icon, along with her owner. But don't worry, she's safe and as good as new:

Actually, it was returned to its owner yesterday.

Northwest Tonight, the local BBC evening news show (usually presented by Gordon "Krypton Factor" Burns) covered the incident and the replica went to a beauty salon for a manicure...the end of the mannikin's fingers got damaged in the kerfuffle.

With Ms Croft's safety established, you turned to the arrest itself with disapproval:

Who says the Police don't have a sense of humour. They realise they made a mistake and departed with a wry grin on their lips.

What's that, they didn't. Rather than lose face they arrest him on trumped up 'firearms charge'. Still, he should count himself lucky; looking at the photos nobody is going to think he is brazilian!!

How can he be bailed for an offense he hasn't committed, which is the result of police stupidity regarding a plastic gun attached to a mannequin.

You can't prosecute someone for firearms offenses for having a plastic gun, or a cap gun so why has this guy been bailed? He should have been released without charge, with an apology.

Karl Lattimer

You can certainly get shot dead for having a plastic gun. It's not really something we'd like to test...


Given that nobody realised the "gunman" wasn't moving, and was EXTREMELY shapely, and perhaps in a particularly familiar pose, I suppose they did the right thing. Up until they entered the house. Holding the guy, then charging him, has nothing to do with anyone protecting themselves. It's wrongful arrest, and should result in police officers losing their jobs.

However, they don't get that punishment even for killing innocents, so I guess that's out of the question.

Wow, this kind of thing makes me glad that I live in the U.S. ... Hold on, somebody is knocking on my door .....

But, apparently not all police departments are as jumpy:

Ah I had the same problem - I had my full sized Lara in an upstairs window looking down on the front garden and eventually had a visit from 2 nice young chaps from the Herts Constabulary asking me nicely to point her gun the other way. They were worried that she would scare away too many drugged up ASBO kids trying to steal my car. Mind you, this way I can shoot them without them being warned. These things work better in the countryside.
