Lost points for bad gunhandling

This would be a very sexy poster, but -10 points for the terrible gunhandling. I haven't even heard the Boondock Saints' music yet, but so far the imagery from their latest branding campaign has been very successful.

Mormons

This bizarre rant was pasted to the inside of a now-abandoned newpaper dispenser in downtown Seattle. I can't make heads or tails of it, but it's not the first rant in this flavor I've seen before. Someone in downtown is very passionately blogging a kind of madness, and doing so on paper, for the world to see.

Bored Tink

Spotted at a local toystore. Isn't that just the most jaded and bored Tinkerbell you could possibly imagine? This is Tinkerbell after Disney is done with her, middle-aged, burned-out, probably smoking cigarettes and ocassionally drinking too much. How did this pass quality control?

Dora

"Tonight, on a very special Dora the Explorer, Dora goes into the bath and explores... herself!"

Eggs

As I've mentioned in the past, I enjoy drawing pictures on the hard-boiled eggs so the kids can distinguish between them and the uncooked ones. This is yesterday's offering: the protagonist from Machinarium, and Dia de las Muerto from LittleBigWorld.

Very much agreed on the gun-handling thing. I've never used a gun, or been formally trained, but I know how to handle one, and whenever I see actors with their fingers in the trigger guard it winds me up no end!

I more or less gave up on Disney after The Little Mermaid, when they started resorting to bosoms to sell the pic...

Besides, after hearing Tinkerbell songs by the likes of S.J. Tucker and Seanan McGuire? I could give a rat what the folks in Hollyweird do to the on-screen Tink. These two ladies and their co-conspirators could write circles around the canon authorship...

Tinkerbell says, and I find I agree,
you have to break rules if you want to break free...

That Tinker Bell looks about right for the soul-dead CGI version they're doing recently:

Tink does not look bored in that pic, not to me anyway. She looks flirty. Dunno why. But not bored.

See my icon. :-)

Googling "Lady Paula Merry," apparent author of the newspaper rant, yields a cornucopia of schizophrenic tirades across several cities, including one in which she promises to have "regular frog position sex" with her caregiver. Almost up there with Time Cube...almost.

Yes, I knew that this sort of lunacy looked familiar. I'd seen it before on Usenet.

Certainly, Elf knows how *that* works.
