Reader Playing Kungfu Bunnies

I really thought I was going insane this morning when I started reading my feeds, Google Reader grabs the next 20 items ahead of time as you know. So it just happened to grab the next 20 which included Boing Boing’s post. At the time they seemed to think it was a good idea to embed flash. Now it’s gone of course. But scared me because I thought I was being taken over by some odd bunny virus.

I use flashblock but apparently this didn’t prove effective in this case since I had allowed it on “google.com”. Flash needs an option to not auto play stuff. The bunnies were cute after I found a way to annihilate them, so plug.

    Hey! That’s so weird, at *no* time was any flash embedded in the post. Just a jpeg screengrab, and a link to the flash site. What RSS reader are you using, and can you think of any other conditions that would have caused this? Email us!

    Honest, there was *never* a flash embed in that post, I’m certain of it. Auto-loading loud crap is the worst possible web sin.

    oh, I see — google’s. I have no explanation for this, but I swear there was no flash embed EVER in this post.

    Weird, Google must have picked it up and auto embedded it.. Like they do with mp3 enclosures.
