Some day, I'm going to start a news aggregator that creates honest headlines. Here's how it will work: for every degree of separation between the original story and the submission, subtract about 80% of the hyperbole.

"I have a weird entry in my referrer logs" -> "Maybe Arrington is building an aggregator, like last time" -> "Maybe Arrington is going to destroy Hacker News! Like last time he made a tech news aggregator."

Edit: though this HN story appears to have been submitted by the story's original author.

No sarcasm at all, either. ;-)

The next title would be:
