We're Sorry World (WARNING: Graphics intensive, slow load)
This thread was started by bemildred in LBN and was locked by moderator as "not lbn". There was no redirection to another forum, and I couldn't find it in search, so I'm reposting on behalf of bemildred.

It's nice to have a voice, isn't it?

It started the day after the US presidential election with one student posting a picture of himself on the internet holding up a sign reading: "Sorry world (we tried) - half of America".

Within just a few days, the website www.sorryeverybody.com, set up by James Zetlen, had 27 million hits, he said.

The site features more than 2,200 pictures of contrite Americans holding up placards expressing their sorrow at the victory of George W. Bush. There are 1,000 more pictures waiting to be posted.

"It was mind-boggling the amount of emotion the website has triggered," said the 20-year-old neuroscience student at the University of Southern California.

I added these pics to bemildred's post.
