The Hawaii Chair



I DARE YOU not to laugh at "Surfing the internet"

Don't judge an old computer game by its cover

I mean really, you misspelled "mega" ?

(And before you ask, yes this is taken from an online auction. They'd have been better off taking everything out of the box and putting it in a plastic bag.)

Potential smooch purchase in aisle four

Now I'm a fan of the Green Bay Packers (an American Football team, in case you're wondering) and these folks are obviously excited about supporting the team as they head towards the Superbowl.

But look, right at this particular moment in time, you can pinpoint a smooch transaction about to go down.

Does that lady NEED this shirt?

A grey marl, creased t-shirt?

Clearly too big for her?

Tsk tsk.

Meme vs Smerchandise

I think we're all familiar with the "internet meme" aren't we?

A form of the running joke that evolves over the telling.

Unfortunately there is over-emphasis placed on milking these often funny moments as fars they will go.

Often until someone tries to profit from them.

That's when it gets smooch.

Here's an example.

Photobucket

Here we have a supermarket cleaning sign that somebody has doctored to make a "300" joke. It doesn't make me laugh, but I can see the humour, imagination and the effort made here. Commendable.

However....someone else had to take it too far.

Photobucket

Because this is a joke you need to wear?
Because this is a joke with legs?
Because this is a joke that gets funnier with every telling?

None of the above.

It's because someone thought there was money to be made.

They've taken all the spontaneity out of it.

And haven't they done the shoddiest, most slap-dash attempt at designing it?

Why is the top of the triangle touching the T in "Caution"?

Just look at the people!

Photobucket

I mean, come on. The guy with the magic marker had better sketching skills, especially when it comes to the depiction of human beings.

The one on the shirt looks like an amputee being assaulted by Gumby.

But anyway.

Smooch. As. Hell.

Cease and desist from this sort of activity. Let the people have their jokes and let the joke die.

It very, very, very nearly works.

What The Smoochest isn't



Practically the precise opposite.

More 'wonderful' old dating videos




THAT. IS. FINE.

A KISS cover band named Smooch



True Story.

CJ Juan of the Jam Factory just passed this on to me.

Too good to be true, but it is.

That makeup is less than convincing.

One of them states "KISS is one of the most underrated bands of all time" If anything, surely the opposite position is the one closer to reality.

Also, surely one of the benefits of being a KISS cover band is that if you really put the effort in, you could do a lot better live performance than the current KISS live show.
(With its stacks and stacks of Marshalls ...oh it's just a 2D backdrop ...that does explain why the sound is so tinny and pitiful).

But anyway.

SMOOCH Anytown.

Who was made for loving you?

Not a soul.

Just looking like a Roman, picking up the paper...



My favourite bit is where the girl picks the baby out of the sink, straight onto her shoulder.

If anyone is in some sort of friend circle where this is acceptable attire for an afternoon's meal, they need to get out of that situation quick-smart, or turn up next time with a Walther.

Tiddy Bear



On the plus side, there are plenty of close ups of tiddys.
On the minus side, EVERYTHING ELSE.

p.s. The swivel design is PATENT PENDING, so don't go appropriating it!

Calculating figure



Apparently this lil fella is worth quite the sum of money.

Thanks to Happyjack for the find.
