Tech website Business Insider has become a must-read for tech aficionados and those who like to stay on top of the financial world – and has produced some excellent pieces of work in its short lifetime.

But this article is not one of those articles. And the reaction it’s prompted across the world has been utterly brilliant – even drawing comparisons to Holly Carpenter’s infamous Indo article about her New Year experience.

Written by Sam Shead, the piece details a trip to Ireland to check out Apple’s operations here; the headline full of promise, boasting “here’s what we found”.

So amazing, in fact, that it spawned an absolutely wonderful piss-take on Gawker that you really need to read once you’re done with the original.
