Awesome Lego Photos

By photographer Mike Stimpson. He’s recreated many iconic images with Lego. Very nice, and some are even kind of creepy!

Passive Aggressive Anger Release

Passive aggressive people must have it bad sometimes. They get all pissed off and angry, they want to be violent, and yet they are forced to look you in the face, smile as genuinely as possible, and say shit like, “You’re awesome!”

So for these people, these poor sad people who think that every negative emotion cannot be shared with the person who caused it, I think this passive aggressive anger release vending machine is perfect*. They should be installed in every place of business and in many malls and airports. Let the sound of smashing begin!

Thanks to And I’ll Burn for the link!

*Note: this device would be useful in situations where punching the person -your boss, the guy with the gun, the judge, the children- would be a Very Bad Idea, too.

Geostationary Banana

OK, why can we put a giant banana up floating around the Texas skies but we can’t put another man on the moon?

Planetary Maps On Acid

Very Peter Max-esque. And for some reason, I kept thinking of the old packaging from Clairol Herbal Essence shampoo (ca. 1976) when I looked at these. Dunno why.

Women in Art

Nice morphing of images of women’s faces through the ages of art. Too bad they didn’t start with cave paintings…

If This Isn’t Politicized Art, I Don’t Know What Is.

A man has set himself up in a room with a paintball gun and a webcam perpetually pointed at him for a month, and has told anyone who wishes that they can shoot him simply by pressing a button on the website.  Wafaa Bilal’s “Domestic Tension” is his latest art project, and it features the exact scenario described above.  What’s more terrifying is that already some 40,000 shots have been fired at him.

I Drew This

As I’m sure many of you know, my browsing habits really only involve three things: reddit, ookee, and a series of webcomics. So it’s always a pleasure when I can bring all three together and post onto Ookee a comic I found at reddit that is (and this shouldn’t surprise you) political in nature and generally well-written and drawn. Enjoy.
