4442 - Code?


If anyone watches the Colbert late show you see screens like this all the time. A screen in screen picture of someone, usually Fox not News saying something stupid.


I would look at the screen and think that the dots and dashes around the main picture look like morse code. I wondered if Colbert and crew were sending hidden messages that only they knew about.

Well, no they aren't. I took this picture and decoded it. It's just random dots and dashes. So unless they sneak a real message in every once in a while there's nothing to them. Here's this picture decoded.

Well, if it's Faux News it doesn't need to make sense, does it?

OMG!! That's Sitruarelian! It's the signal to the aliens to come take over our planet! They're going for the bloggers and commenters first! We have to all go hide!

Oh, wait a minute, I forgot it'll take them 100 years to get here...
