A Paper By Maggie Simpson and Edna Krabappel Was Accepted By Two Journals

Posted by samzenpus on from the simpsons-already-did-it dept.

An anonymous reader writes "A scientific study by Maggie Simpson, Edna Krabappel, and Kim Jong Fun has been accepted by two journals. Of course, none of these fictional characters actually wrote the paper, titled "Fuzzy, Homogeneous Configurations." Rather, it's a nonsensical text, submitted by engineer Alex Smolyanitsky in an effort to expose scientific journals — the Journal of Computational Intelligence and Electronic Systems and the Aperito Journal of NanoScience Technology."

      Gee golly, I'm watching in real time as samzenpus removes the various idle markings.
      At the time of this post, this story appears no where on /recent (on idle or not), has an idle tag, but is not on the idle site any longer.
      This is not a story worthy of the front page, it was not firehosed to the front page, get it the fuck off of the front page and stop gaming the fucking system.
