For maximum
effect, turn off the audio and play the theme from Donnie
Darko instead:
Oh, just
for the record, I'm not really a furry
and the creepiest thing Jamie's ever seen is probably this.
It certainly freaked the hell out of me.
It's a tough
segue from anthropomorphic erotica and hydrocephalic music videos,
but today is Thanksgiving in Canada. I'm lucky and I know it,
so let me give thanks.
I'm thankful
that, in a world where most people hate their jobs, mine is
to hang out with my friends and daydream.
I'm thankful
the trailer for 300
looks so cool (even if King Leonidas' constant shouting did
make me think of the Will Ferrel character with voice immodulation
disorder), because it means the director might not screw up
Watchmen,
the greatest comic ever written.
I'm thankful
for you. It means a great deal to us that so many people visit
our site and (hopefully) enjoy our work.
Above all
else, I am thankful for my girls. Like I say, I'm lucky and
I know it.
Maybe it's
just the harmony of the holiday, but Jamie and I couldn't find
a single thing to disagree on for the debate. The closest we
came was "Would you rather receive unmerited praise
or be overlooked for legitimate accomplishments?" (Unsurprisingly,
we'd both take the praise.) Long story short, we thought it
would be fun to give you a chance to pick the topic for a change.
If you
have a subject you'd like us to debate, send it to to graham@wordsandpicturesonline.com,
ideally phrased in the form of a question. We'll pick our favourites,
give you credit and fight to the death.
What would an advertising
site be without the fine print? Here goes: Any reference to actual brands
on this site is for satirical purposes only and is in no way endorsed by their
parent companies
or the agencies that represent them. Neither is any harm intended towards
the aforementioned brands, companies and agencies. Quite the contrary
we may well come begging for a job one day.
And really, wouldn't you rather sue Adbusters?
