People laughed when it was said that perhaps The Onion could save Journalism. Who's laughing now, eh!?
You could call this brilliant advertising: Those laughing now are most likely to be males between the ages of 12 and 34. :)

#42See, now I just want to make a virus that injects this into random webpages.
dysentery.js?
Re: The Onion releases fartscroll.js
#43The sounds are included directly in the JS, which is pretty neat: https://github.com/theonion/fartscroll.js/blob/master/fartsc...
Presumably they did that just to avoid external dependencies.
Talk about anal...

#44The best part of this entire thing may be that in "Issues", there is a pull request for "My Finger".

#45Earlier quoted context omitted.
And in ogg as well as mp3, to boot. Settling once and for all the great question which of these two codecs is more efficient at encoding flatulence.
Well - which is more efficient?
At least in terms of size, the mp3 strings are 23%~ lighter than the ogg strings.

#46Lets put this into a bookmarklet :P
Done: https://gist.github.com/fabriceleal/5547487.
Tested in hacker news (no jQuery) and wikipedia (has jQuery). For some reason, github doesn't like that I'm loading something from raw.github.com/...
Chrome console says:
Refused to load the script 'https://raw.github.com/theonion/fartscroll.js/master/fartscr... because it violates the following Content Security Policy directive: "script-src https://github.com https://a248.e.akamai.net https://jobs.github.com https://ssl.google-analytics.com https://secure.gaug.es https://gist.github.com.

#47Jokes aside, I make my browser make a click when an external object is loaded and when a page starts and finishes loading.
This audible enforcement is very helpful during development and to "hear" which sites are sneaking in external calls without bringing up firebug, etc.

I run Ghostery to stop sites from loading external media. If you're not opposed to plugins, even if you don't actually want to block the media, you can put it into disabled mode and it'll still tell you how many external calls were made (and, if you click on the icon, it brings up a list of the associated domains).
Granted, I'm running Chromium (presumably you're talking about Firefox), but the plugin does exist for both browsers.

would you share how you did this? is it a greasemonkey script or some sort of add-in?

#50Now all we are missing is a Chrome Extension that automatically injects this in every page and stays hidden. Perfect office prank :)
