Funny stuff. What I find surprising is that these error pages are on the web site of Bloomberg news, a fairly serious and straight laced operation.

Don't worry, it shows just as much respect for good taste as the rest of their recent redesign.

Interestingly, it seems the 404 varies with the url: http://www.bloomberg.com/a http://www.bloomberg.com/news/a/ http://www.bloomberg.com/v

The first and last of those are likely Apache returning errors. Its definitely not expected behavior.

My guess is that it's a web developer who really wanted to do something amusing and was only allowed to do it on the error pages.

It's @joshuatopolsky http://bit.ly/1vfVRV3
