If Housepets Were Libertarians

Most of the comics on LeftyCartoons.com flop for various reasons, but I rather like this one:

The Definitive Collection Of Awesomely Bad Wolverine Costumes

jewish_wolverine

Dork Shelf, a blog devoted to Toronto and nerd culture points to Nextround.net’s collection of photos of guys in so-bad-they’re-good Wolverine costumes. My favourite one is Jewish Wolverine, complete with adamantium menorah claws.

If you’re looking for costumed adventurers who really are “from the Tribe” (such as Kitty Pryde, mentioned recently in this blog entry), look no farther than Comic Book Religion’s catalogue of Jewish superheroes. The oddest one is “The Acidic Jew”, whose touch can dissolve anything.

The New Republican Party Logo

It’s a much more appropriate animal than the elephant, and as you can see in this article, quite intelligently designed:

Make Your Own “Air Force One” Flyover Photos!

The New York Daily News has a suggestion:

Not only was flying a Presidential jet for a photo-op Monday over downtown Manhattan in bad taste – it was unnecessary.

Anyone in the White House ever hear of Photoshop?

The article provides a handy photo of Air Force One on a white background:

…and they’ve invited the readers to flex their Photoshop muscles. I thought I’d quickly crank out a couple of doctored images in the hopes of inspiring someone to create a comedic photo-manipulation masterpiece.

Here’s a rather obvious one, featuring the Tourist Guy:

Here’s Air Force One at the Battle of Hoth:

More Assless Chaps Photos

I’ll admit it: I like typing out the phrase “assless chaps”. Here are a couple more photos of me showing off said assless chaps in the speaker’s room at Saturday’s Toronto Code Camp (which I wrote about in this post).

Here I am holding up the assless chaps prior to donning them:
