    "The guy goes into the hospital, okay? His wife's just had a baby and he can't wait to see them both. So he meets the doctor and he says, 'Oh, Doc, I've been so worried. How are they?' And the doctor smiles and says, 'They're fine. Just fine. Your wife's delivered a healthy baby boy and they're both in tip-top form. You're one lucky guy.' So the guy rushes into the maternity ward with his flowers. But it's empty. His wife's bed is empty. 'Doc?' He says and turns around and the doctor and all the nurses wave their arms and scream in his face. 'April fool! Your wife's dead and the baby's a spastic!!'" (he executes an asylum orderly with a gunshot to the head) "Get it? Oh what a senseless waste of human life!"

    X is an online community centered on the creation of hosted web pages featuring an absurd juxtaposition of a single image or a simple slideshow, which may be animated or tiled along with optional large zooming text and a looping sound file.

    This case is a perfect example of how much pro players are in need of sleep. X's eldest daughter, Rosie, would snore very loudly. One night, in desperation, X tried earplugs to block out the noise but rammed them home so tightly that he damaged his inner ear. The next day, he felt nauseous and dizzy as he faced Guillermo Coria and was clobbered in the first round of the Cincinnati Masters. Somewhat embarrassed, he did not admit to his mistake until several months later.

    Y is an event whose reports on the press conferences and player quotes are known for the fact that the statements are reported exactly as they were stated, irrespective of any errors in the speech of the players. This the organisers say preserves the human-ness.
