Opel Corsa: Neo-surrealism

Posted on 27 March by Vernon

A graffiti hand representing shattered materialism reaching out to the ‘real’ hand with bizarre wristlet/fingerling which says “I want to fly” while small car cowers muttering “f.gg.”

Thanks Frank. You can see the original here. If you can’t see the PSD, please check out our marked up red image in our gallery.

Lena was 2010′s Eurovision winner. She even painted her toenails for you; she did it just the other day. By Euro

  What does that mean?

I don’t think it looks that bad. Her hand is just pointing behind her. … I guess the pinky is a little awkward.

My first thought was the dislocated right arm. Following the curves of her torso is kind of creepy, too. Ultra-skinny on top with George Wendt’s beer gut in the middle. “Middle” is a term that only applies to the vertical axis.

Maybe she is supposed to be swinging to the side. If so, her hair and midsection are swinging in opposite directions. Maybe that’s an up-side to having a detachable stomach.

I mean, sure, her smallest finger IS growing out of her wrist. That looks like the least of her problems in this image.

  Clearly she is a women who goes both ways.

  Have a look at a slightly different picture. http://off-the-record.de/wp-content/uploads/2011/03/Opellena.jpg
  Maybe you want to rephrase the “swinging to the side” part.
  Midair twist?

Ok ill be the idiot who asks it… What does Fgg mean?

  - Hunh?
    
    And that helps how?
- a person
  
  I don’t know if there is any joke other than repeating what is on the plate. Maybe that the front of the car looks like a face?
  
  For the curious, the F is for Frankfurt am Main, the GG is random (though it may mean something to Opel). Opel is based in Ruesselsheim, a suburb of FFM, and they don’t get their own city/district code.

  F.gg – Car language for Fuck. They don’t enunciate very clearly – too much carbon monoxide.

It’s clear the paint is lead and her hand is magnetic and she can’t fight the attraction. So not a PSD.

Wtf is Lena…?
- Euro
  
  Lena was 2010′s Eurovision winner. She even painted her toenails for you; she did it just the other day.

  Whoever she is, she can’t park straight (even when the white lines are adjusted to make the space 30% wider than the neighbouring one)

And wtf is Opel…?
- Jim Bob
  
  I’m hoping you’re being ironic but I’m guessing you are an American, Martin.
  - pootpoot
    
    Even an American should know that Opel and Vauxhall are owned by GM.
    - Jim Bob
      
      God point – but it seems that Herr Groening is actually German and given that Opel is also originally one of Germany’s oldest car manufacturers, it seems he was being ironic (I don’t get it though).

The collar of that shirt could double as a parachute.
Or maybe her neck really is roughly the size of a pencil.

I’m able to duplicate the look of the hand, so no PSD. Now if you want to talk about the perspective of the ‘city’, that’s another thing.
- J-Town
  
  I hope you are refering to the sun’s position and the incorrect angle of the shadow of the car. Maybe her magic hand/finger is bending the sunlight in her direction…

Her hair. The city. the different widths between parking lines and spaces. Multiple Depths of field

Siiiiigh! Sometimes I come back to see if PhotoshopDisasters is getting better. It seems not

The fun of this site was 50% the disasters, and 50% the funny titles and original comments (I mean, the ones written by PSD’s admin). When this site changed hands, the written stuff became quite poor (as in “stuff written to appear witty and instead resolving in simple banalities”). It’s a pity.

Please don’t answer “you don’t have to visit this website if you don’t like it” I actually didn’t come here for some months, and will let some more months go by before I check again, in the hope that a wittier writer is involved.
- Commie
  
  Siiiigh! Like some kind of demented comet you’re come whinging back after months to drop an egg and hurtle back to into Pissy Space. You know what, we really don’t care about your opinion. Make us care by improving the text. Write something better – add something to the community rather than just moaning and running off.
  
  The text could be better – but it pretty much covers all the action. Do better.
  
  All your smilies are dumber than anything you’re bitching about. Seriously.
  - Gabriela
    
    You lose a lot of your cedibility when you try to invalidate one’s opinion by personally offending them. Daniele has a point, a good one, and a opinion which I share. Just because you don’t share the same opinion you don’t have to offend her. That comment on her smiles is just nonsense. This blog is getting worse, and it’s not all Vernon’s fault. The commenters were funny in the past, not rude like Commie and many others I see here.
  - No
    
    At least she used perfect grammar.
- Starlitskyy
  
  Its a mildly amusing website that posts 4 or 5 pictures a week. I only recently discovered it, so I guess I missed its “glory days,” but I’m constantly mystified by all the people who seem so personally offended by the authors. Is this site really that important to your life?

Hell and bother. My girlfriend can do that…

Not a disaster, just weird looking reality.
