    BeautifulPeople dupes media with Shrek virus publicity stunt !!!

    BeautifulPeople.com, the dating website which claims to only accept members who pass an attractiveness rating, is claiming in the media that it has been hit by a computer virus.According to a press release issued by the website, it was hit by a virus called "Shrek" that made it possible for "30,000 'ugly' people to invade the site." The story has been widely reported by the likes of The Guardian, The Telegraph, Fox News, The Daily Mail and many other media outlets.



    Greg Hodge, MD of BeautifulPeople, had to say in the press release:

    "We got suspicious when tens of thousands of new members were accepted over a six-week period, many of whom were no oil painting."

    "We responded immediately, repairing the damage from the 'Shrek Virus' and putting every new member back into the rating module for a legitimate and democratic vote. The result is that we have lost over 30,000 recent members.

    "We have sincere regret for the unfortunate people who were wrongly admitted to the site and who believed, albeit for a short while, that they were beautiful. It must be a bitter pill to swallow, but better to have had a slice of heaven then never to have tasted it at all."

    I don't need to know everything, I just need to know where to find it, when I need it.

    Oh my, just imagine how busy those "beautiful people" must have been voting off 30,000 new members! The poor sods, I hope they didn't develop bags under their eyes from all the eye strain.
    Life isn't about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain!

    WTF if they're so beautiful why would they need a dating website maybe they should just buy a mirror
    Once you've got past my charm, good looks, intelligence and my sense of humour,
    I think it's my modesty that stands out.

    Ted : Unfortunately, the mirrors will automatically break in to pieces...it is allergic to irrational minded people.
