Boar Hunts, iPhone 5s, And Other Stories We Didn’t Post

So much news passes before our collective eyes every day that we couldn’t possibly cover it all. Mostly because much of it isn’t worth covering! But here are a some borderline tidbits we passed on, just in case.

Inside the iPhone 5 Factory, or Not

Could this really be a picture of a Wintek factory worker inspecting iPhone 5 screens? Well, sure it could. But it more likely isn’t, on account of the total lack of evidence.

Amazon Instant Video Reaches 100,000th Title You Don’t Care About

I’m sorry; that was rude. It’s just that I much prefer it when Amazon mentions specific TV shows and movies that they’ve added as opposed to some BIG NUMBER that includes so much terrible awful unwatchable things. Quality v quantity, etc. [Amazon]

Terrible No Good Palm Memorial Video

Self-explanatory. Please don’t try to watch the whole thing. Maybe instead read this? [BoingBoing]

Left Behind is our daily collection of chaff things we didn’t think was quite good enough to post on its own, and why.
