Headline is a creative way to bring humor and discussion into your home or place of business. The box will generate (although nobody need know that) headlines randomly from several source components and then display the result in public chat. The headlines can vary from the profound, to the absurd, to the outright bizarre. The elements used to assemble headlines are based on current or recent events, and in most cases can be related to.

Primarily designed for humor, headline can also help to stimulate discussion on current affairs. Although aimed at verbose humor, many headline combinations are also distilled with more subtle elements. This aids in keeping content fresh and non-repetative. Part of the fun of this gadget is the uncanny way that many of the headlines match up with reality, or reality as it might be perceived by some. The headline generator is accessed by typing !headline in public chat. In total, more than 2,000,000 headline combinations can be generated, covering hundreds of diverse topics.

The database is web-based and is updated with new content to keep up to date with current affairs.

All headlines can be considered PG, but may contain blunt terminology as in real life. Not all headlines will appeal to all humors. Examples of headlines can be found below.
