The guys in the first two images look the same, yet in one file name it's George Washington, in the other Thomas Jefferson. Was one a clone of the other?

They don't look the same to me. Though I will say that the Jefferson painting looks more like Jefferson than the Washington painting looks like Washington.

Do you agree that they look stupid?

No.

Then you're wrong, and have lost a great deal of credibility.

Jesus fucking a-hole christ on a popsicle stick. Someone beat him. Seedy, kill him or something.

Can't.  Neil's Prison Bitch status.

No.

You realize that they're supposed to look stupid, right?  That's the point.  They're kind of stupid, meant to be awesomely stupid, although really only the gorilla one comes particularly close, and its composition doesn't do it any favors.

the biggest problem with the pictures is that the presidents in especially 2 and 3 look odd. not in their appearance (though that may be questionable too), but how they fit with the rest of the picture. looks almost like they were copy/pasted in

Crazy weather last night, the city was lit in a weird yellow light and it rained and thundered like I've never seen before.

Peek & Cloppenburg will open their new Austrian flasghip store next week after a construction time of two years. The posters on the construction site claimed how proud they were to have their new store in the Vienna's historical Inner City, a UN World Heritage site . . . which is probably why their building looks like this:

Looks very looter proof.

Disorder, Immorality and Corruption Rampant in U.S.

Pyongyang, August 20 (KCNA) -- Cases sparking social furor are occurring in the United States.

Some days ago, a man was arrested while crossing a fence of the White House, with a knapsack containing explosives on his back, kicking off a row.

The president was inside the building at that time, a press report said.

Prior to the case, two unidentified planes flew in the sky above the Camp David on the outskirts of Washington one after another, prompting a U.S. forces plane to make an urgent sortie.

Besides, a vehicle suspected of carrying explosives was detected near the building of the Defense Department to totally cordon off roads leading to it and post envelops containing white powder were reportedly sent to schools in Washington, D.C., etc. These shocking cases are occurring in an unbroken chain, throwing people into greater uneasiness and horror.

A bill on allowing same sex marriage was made into a law in New York State recently, stunning the public. This brought together six states which legalized same sex marriage in the U.S.

All facts go to clearly prove that the U.S. is a corrupt and degenerated society.

FAGS ARE THE CAUSE

Lesbians are halal.

I recognize WAY too many of those.  

[Ideologue]

I guess I recognize about half.  And I found WALL-E.

I like how there are two Marvins.  Also, most excellent inclusion of the Good Bill and Ted Robots.  And the depth and breadth of the piece is impressive.

Calling foul on the Tin Man, though.  He's a true cyborg, according to L. Frank Baum.  Look it up if you don't believe me.  Might as well include Inspector Gadget.

The major omission is Data, or at least I don't see him.  I think the artist may have purposely eschewed non-kinematic entertainment, so the omission of Brainiac and the Growing Man and all the other comic robots might be deliberate. I'd also like to have seen a background row of screens for non-humanoid, mainframe-type robots like WOPR or Colossus or Skynet (yeah, the face of Skynet was retarded, but so was Ro-Man, and he's right there).

Anyway, it's still plenty awesome.  Tim, take note.  Do you see what makes this different?

[jimmy olsen]

Meh, it's an interesting piece, I wouldn't call it awesome though.

You can actually win a signed poster of this if you can name as many robots as possible:

Two Marvins makes sense, after all there's also two Cylons.

I like that the Silent Running bots are there, Nomad and the ones from Black Hole. The inclsion of Futurama bots seems a bit arbitrary.
