after being published, the artist should've felt like this..

(Although we already have some very nice posters and a big fake wall-swatch, if you know what I mean...)

that's pretty much what I was getting at. I opened the paper and saw that and almost spit my energy drink all over the train in disgust.

yeah but why post that image in this thread in the first place? why not in another thread to point out how awful it is? i always perceived the genius thread to be for cool or funny stuff, not racist garbage. i'm not trying to pick on you, but i just had to say something, that's all.

Dorothy Wood · #**4815** 02-19-2009, 03:37 PM

I would like someone to explain why that comic is supposed to be funny or clever?

because that chimp thing that happened was really really sad for the people involved...making light of it and being racist at the same time seems really weird. they're saying it's not racist, but then what is it?

I don't know if you've noticed but half the stuff posted here is in mockery of other's "genius" ideas.

Relax man.

saz · #**4817** 02-19-2009, 05:42 PM

yeah, but i would think that you would know better.

I really don't see why you're upset over a simple cartoon that was posted by me onto a message board with a small community when all I'm doing is mocking a dipsht artist who doesn't know how to get his point across and he did it for millions of readers to see. Also, am I known as a racist here? No so for real, ease up.

Dorothy- ever hear of the phrase, "a monkey can do it"? That's what he was trying to get at. It's clearly the wrong time and place for it.

LongDuckDong · #**4819** 02-19-2009, 07:12 PM

So a pic of a monkey being shot is insultful, but 'faggoty white uniforms' is ok?

You're a fucking idiot.

That's all for now. Later, gang!

You're a fucking idiot for not understanding mockery.

I didn't draw the damn thing.

ericlee · #**4821** 02-19-2009, 07:27 PM

White uniforms, eh?

LongDuckDong · #**4822** 02-19-2009, 07:28 PM

Easy! That wasn't aimed at you. It was aimed at that sazi idiot. Jeez!

Oops. Sorry.

Sazi's not an idiot though. He cool.

LongDuckDong · #**4824** 02-19-2009, 07:35 PM

Monkey business.

Helvete · #**4825** 02-19-2009, 07:36 PM

SHUT UP AND LOOK AT THIS! Look!

Dorothy Wood · #**4826** 02-19-2009, 07:47 PM

homo.

as for the "a monkey could do it", chimps aren't monkeys. so I still don't get it.

I would like the artist to explain!

LongDuckDong · #**4827** 02-20-2009, 01:16 AM

Dorothy, post your boobs!

this is worth a thread

it's not "a monkey could do it"

the term is "a monkey at a typewriter" and all the different twists on that saying- a thousand monkeys at a typewriter, a million monkeys and blah blah blah

it's called the infinite monkey theorem it has been linked to William Shakespeare and even mentioned in a review for AIFST (see what I did there?)

Regardless, it is also a direct reference to the monkey being shot in Connecticut the other day, we all know that yada yada

but the one thing it is NOT is racist, as it is comparing the writers of the stimulus package, ie Congress, not President Obama, who signed the stimulus package.

the other thing to point out is how many times Bush was shown to look like a monkey, but if Al Sharpton complains about this comic in the Post it's now racist against Obama?

it was never about Obama in the first place.

Thanks, you've went more in depth with it. I was thinking of the stimulus package could have been written by a monkey and also knew it was a connection with Travis being shot.

After seeing it, I knew the shit was going to hit the fan.
