I thought you were linking to a Photoshop Phriday at Something Awful.
The blender was cool. Three armed Beyonce is pretty amusing too.
Wait, you mean she only has two arms? There goes my overactive fantasy life. Thanks a lot, Internet.
Jesse-
You've just made my day and shot any chance I have at getting anything done today.
Thanks
The cereal box was the worst. Absolute worst
Can this be viewed at work?
fuck yeahhh
Sage:
as far as I have seen so far, yes.
there's some womanage on some of the later pages. Just as a heads up.
Worse...women who appear to have been cannibalized.
This is obviously a sysemtetic incredulity in which a hyperreality is created in which bla bla bla postmodern doublespeak for "sometimes people misrepresent shit" bla bla bla meta narrative.
I don't see any problem with those pictures. They all look genuine to me.
After some extensive, err... research, it appears that Gemma Atkinson chick has a lesbian scene in an upcoming movie...
Photoshop me, baby!
Mentally bookmark this for the next time you hear a feminist insist that they have a sense of humor.
The photoshop site is pretty good, but seems to be nit picky on some of them. I mean, some of those were out of proportion or more like graphics than others.
While funny, this blog strikes me as a place for art students to post after they just failed a 2-week project for drawing a red circle with a pen and calling it art.
Re: the feministing page pointing to "Stuff White People Like"...
Is that blog (SWPL) supposed to be funny? Really? Ironic in a post-hipster sense? I just don't get it...

Q: How many feminists does it take to screw in a lightbulb?
A: That's not funny!

It's hit or miss. Well, mostly miss.
Like white people.
Epi - re:feminist joke
One of my all time favs!
There's also the classic:
What's the difference between a lightbulb and a pregnant woman?
You can unscrew the lightbulb.
RE: the blender photo.
The woman's right forearm is coming up at such an angle that her upper arm would have to extend down to her hips.
With an arm like that, she could throw a mean fastball. Of course, that's how she got the job pitching blenders.
NutraSweet, have you ever gone to feministing and started posting crazy shit like the "what do you say to a woman with two black eyes" joke or equivalent offensiveness? That would be hilarious.

It's like 99% of all the others, then.
LMNOP:
HAHAHAHAHAHAAA!

Epi,
I never post on blogs I have fundamental differences with. Unlike our fucking trolls, I have a sense of etiquette. I'm not above laughing at them, but it's their sandbox and I'm not going to shit in it.
You are a gentleman, NutraSweet. I am not, but it's too much effort for me to go shit in their sandbox. But it must be a blast to stir up that hornet's nest.
He hee. 🙂
Congrats, Bronwyn.
As someone who has created some Photoshop abominations in my time, all I can say is that I wish I was getting paid for it.
Sugarfree -
Thanks for the feministing link. That poor girl is so conflicted 😉
The cereal box was the worst. Absolute worst
You think so? Genteral Mills doesn't seem to.
In that link, Warren, her tummy looks orange.
*squints*
What, did they decide a fish-white belly on a dark-skinned woman was best fixed with an orange wash?
*squints some more*
(and thanks, LMNOP)
It's an undershirt. Yes. That's it... undershirt.
Solvent my ass. I know a still when I smell it.
