New Satire Site Makes Us All Laugh, Be Judgmental

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Thursday 24 March 2005

Missoula, Montana
New Satire Site Makes Us All Laugh, Be Judgmental
http://www.ultimatejudgment.com

They say the internet is making us all more stupid. UltimateJudgment.com, a new satirical website launched today, is a hilarious example. UltimateJudgment.com invites users to become part of a new moral majority by rating things, ideas and people as either "GOOD" or "EVIL". It's a weirdly compelling concept. Terrorists - Good or Evil? Reality TV - Good or Evil? Women - Good or Evil?

It's funny. Site Developer Dave Forward explains his lofty motivations: "Throughout human history, people have held differing opinions. It's confusing and complicated, and has caused arguments and even wars. During brainstorming sessions we soon discovered that every complex argument really comes to down to a simple choice between good and evil. If we can just establish what's Good and what's Evil by a fair and democratic vote, then there'll be no more room for of these differing opinions. We'll have the absolute and final democratic judgment."

The site offers more than the simple judging of pictures. It also allows users to view "evidence" photos for each side of the case. (The evidence that "Bert" is Evil is particularly entertaining - http://www.ultimatejudgment.com/bert/evidence . In true internet satire style, there's also plenty of opportunity for arguments between users. "We want to make the democratic process accessible to everyone," says Forward. "Not all of us can think - but we all have a right to judge."

"In this age of extreme terror, it's so important to remind people that every complex judgment just boils down to a simple choice between "Good" and "Evil". We believe that our current political process doesn't simplify things enough. We're giving people the ultimate moral satisfaction. With UltimateJudgment.com, the Day of Judgment has finally arrived!"

1. Why did you build this website?
http://www.ultimatejudgment.com/who.php

Why did you build this website?
We built UltimateJudgment.com because we think it's something the world really needs right now.

Throughout human history, people have disagreed and held differing opinions. It's confusing and complicated, and has caused arguments and even wars. Just look at the world today - it's full of people who believe totally different things, and so we get terrorist bombings and extremist groups and wars.

But at UltimateJudgment.com, we saw an opportunity for the power of democracy to solve all of that.

We thought - why make it all so complicated? The real questions are the simple ones: what's GOOD, and what's EVIL? If we can just get that sorted out, by a fair and democratic vote, then all our problems become simple. There'll be no more room for disagreement. There'll be no more excuse for all of these stupid differing opinions. Voting will give us an absolute and final answer.

If it turns out Christians are EVIL, we'll have a good reason to burn them all! If it turns out Muslims are EVIL, we'll burn them too! The same goes for Women, Kermit the Frog, Hitler! Start the fires, Beelzebub!




Some words from our competitors:
Bill Gates: "Well, that's it. I'm fucked."

Google: "Search engines were a stupid idea anyway. How can we compete with these guys?"

New York Times: "After 150 years of what we though was quality publishing, we realise we've never really done it right. Not like Knee-Jerk. Those guys really cut to the chase."

Pope John Paul II: "I've been trying to get the fuck-knuckles at the Vatican to put something like this together for years. Now we just look second-rate. Damn you, Knee-Jerk!"

George W. Bush: "I like it. I like lots"

2. Completely bogus
Homeowner associations weren't in the Top Ten -- how realistic is that, I ask you?
