Asus / MSI: Laughing Stocks

Posted on 19 May by Vernon
According to the 80+ emails in my inbox, Engadget has a story about MSI and Asus both using the same Getty images stock photo.

The original picture shows an Apple iBook. The MSI version adds in a blurry new friend in the background, while the Asus version inexplicably adds make-up to the poor kid.

Cheese Heads: Finger Deforming Good!

Posted on 17 May by Vernon
You see, when a picture loves another picture very much, they get together and do something very special. Son, I’m going to use a word I’m sure you’ve heard before – they get Photoshopped together. And this is how a disaster comes into the world; it’s a beautiful thing.

Props to Rik Sansone!

Here’s a closer look in case your brain is telling you that it can’t be true.

Thanks to J Sousa!

IRS: Now Add The Image From Line 48

Posted on 13 May by Vernon
Scene: Gigantic meeting room at IRS headquarters. Sixty IRS directors and managers sit at a long table.

Secretary to the Treasury: Ladies, gentlemen, we all know why we’re here. I’m afraid this is going to be a long, difficult meeting. We’re going to art direct a photograph on our website.

Thanks to Lynn T! Original here.
