« Misty Mountain Hop | Main | KITT » February 11, 2002SA v. FARKIf you're a FARKer or Something Awful reader, you probably know about The Photoshop Contest, which I was asked to judge. Over the weekend, I finally found time to judge and comment on the entries, and Something Awful has posted the results. If you're not a regular SA reader, you should just be prepared: it's not intended for kids, or the easily offended. I, however, think it is hilarious. However, if you are a kid, or easily offended, dispair not! For while I was at FARK this morning, I stole for you, and now present to you, The Best. Picture. EVER!
Comments
I just wanted to be comment number one. Uhm... yeah. :) love your site, wil. Posted by: woohoo at February 11, 2002 09:12 AMThe pictures don't come much better. Thanks a lot for the comments on my pic & giving me 3rd place. Do I win a bit-part in Nemesis? I'd be happy to play anyone who dies in a gory and pointless way. :P Seriously tho, I'm part English, Irish & Scottish, so drink's foremost on my mind 99% of the time. Hence where the idea for the picture came from. Keep on farking, regards, Just want to say thanks for stealing that picture... it's THE BEST!!!! Posted by: Jennifer at February 11, 2002 09:21 AMWhatchoo talkin' about, Wil! Posted by: John at February 11, 2002 09:32 AMGreat judging job overall, I really enjoyed reading that, even if SA isn't usually my kinda thing. Hafta say, though, the comment ofr the furry picture seemed a bit uncharacteristically harsh. I mean, as much as some furries go to excessive lengths to say "It's not all about fucking animals!" it's pretty apparenty even in a cursory look that it's actually... well... NOT. And there's plenty of other stuff to make fun of about, especially conssidering the subject of the entry; the vast archive of over-sized..parts... porn that even GOOD furry artists produce (The ... VERY ... human anatomy on most of this stuff should really sserve to illustrate that plenty of furries aren't in it for the bestiality ;)) and the even vaster array of crappy porn that the not-so-good artists produce. Hell, a show like that to show them how to do it right might be a good idea, really. ;) Posted by: Matrian at February 11, 2002 09:37 AMI nearly spit my drink out when that picture loaded up. I wonder, do you think Gary Coleman was keeping David Hasselhoff occupied while Todd Bridges and Dana Plato were preparing to grab the hubcaps from KITT? Sure wish I could connect to SA right now... Posted by: Jon at February 11, 2002 09:39 AMsa-weet! have fun hanging out with the kids. not like you need to be told twice. Posted by: hedgiewan at February 11, 2002 09:41 AMSA are gonna blow you out the water fatboy! Posted by: mr box at February 11, 2002 09:42 AMWil. Let us not forgot the shrinking of Mr.Coleman. Please note: http://djexocet.com/fark1102.jpg Posted by: Exocet at February 11, 2002 09:45 AMSmoking is bad for anything..plant,vegetable or Crockett's hangin in there, but Tubbs has really gone to hell. "You lazy bastards, give me a hand with this fucking ladder." "All eyes were on David Hasselhof. And then Pamela Anderson walked out of the hotel." "Larry knew a cool hat would be his only chance at ever getting a date in this town." Posted by: Fred Fowler at February 11, 2002 09:47 AMThe sad part is, as soon as I saw the pic, I think I actually had a flashback to Gary Coleman's guest spot on "Buck Rogers". Maybe it's the Glen Larson factor. Then again, I'm enough of a geek that when I saw Patricia McPherson in TNG's "Angel One" I went "Yay! It's Bonnie from 'Kight Rider!'" 'cause ya know, Bonnie rocked, but April was just all about hair and the wet look lipstick and there was just *no* chemistry. Wow. I was so born in the early 1970s wow. Makes you wonder just how many people actually forked out the 1000 dollars to buy photoshop :P Daniel Posted by: DDCN at February 11, 2002 11:10 AMHAHAHA. LOL, Daniel. Posted by: wil at February 11, 2002 11:17 AMWow, Mr. Zack over at SA seems to have some anger management issues. He was a bit harsh on ya there, Uncle Willie. Sore loser, I guess. Posted by: Julia at February 11, 2002 11:26 AMWow, Mr. Zack over at SA seems to have some anger management issues. He was a bit harsh on ya there, Uncle Willie. Sore loser, I guess. Posted by: Julia at February 11, 2002 11:26 AMsorry, didn't mean to double post. Posted by: Julia at February 11, 2002 11:27 AMThat knight rider picture is the best, I remember when I was at school many years ago, a rapper came out with a rap and the under tune was the kightrider theme tune, we took that tune, recored via a dictaphone out head of sixth forms pet sayings, then someone sliced and siced it so it was our head of year rapping over the knightrider theme tune. We got into a lot of trouble for that one especiallt since we played it at full volume on the last day of school for the whole school to hear it. Neither the head of sixth form nor the head teacher were much impressed! We thought it was very funny and so did the rest of the pupils at my school. Knight Rider rules though, I wanted, and still do want, KITT as my car. The best car in the world, although the off shots of knightrider (ie team knightrider and knightrider 2000) sucked. I also was a big fan of the a team and airwolf. Any other fans of these programs here, is so let me know and we can chat about it. Have a walk down memory lane. Spike Posted by: Beastly_spike at February 11, 2002 11:37 AMDavid Hasselhof is a scream! Having him in a picture with Gary Coleman and KITT is downright hilarous. I had my sister in law buy me a David. H. CD and send it to me (she's German, they dig that H-man stuff there). Every once in a while, when I need a good smile, I put on my David CD and Groove to the White guy sounds of "Hot Shot City". Aw come on Wil! Reading Rainbow Six? That sucked! The Golden Girls Gone Wild showed better photomanipulation skills than that POS. :shaking head: Charlie in Charge was a hoot though! hehe
I for one loved Reading Rainbow 6 so much that I saved on my desktop. The skills aren't great it's true, but I just love to concept. I saw it when it was first posted and even now it makes me smile. Also not to sound all prudish (I'm not really) but I liked that it was clean funny as opposed to nasty funny like many of the entries. On the other hand I thought the Euthanasia (sp?) Show was great black humour and good quality. Also I do realize that with a theme like that the first thing a lot of people think of is "What is the most offensive thing I can come up with". Dr. Satan I also loved (and voted for) Temptation Ireland. I thought it was a simple and elegant concept which was wonderfully executed. * Disclaimer: I can't Photoshop even to etch-a-sketch standards so this all from a non-technical perspective.* Posted by: Gaea at February 11, 2002 12:13 PMQuoting from third-party information (friend's brother works at Adobe), Adobe gives their employees something ridiculous like 80% off on software because they figure it's gonna be pirated anyways. Heh. Is this where we "prosumers" (graphic designers, etc.) pick up the slack? Is this why it's so farkin' expensive? Posted by: Courtney at February 11, 2002 12:18 PM*bwahahaha* That's pretty funny. My dad calls me "Willis." O.o Posted by: Aura at February 11, 2002 12:19 PMCourtney...one would hope that Adobe employees would get the software for cheap, or hell, even for free anyway. I mean, they are employees. If you can't reap the benefits of the company you work for, something is wrong. I think Adobe is really out of step with their pricing though...if they lowered the price to maybe 100 dollars, they would probably make tonnes more money because it would be cheap enough for even hobbiests to buy it. Same with every other programme that is super expensive. Why spend so much money on protecting from pirates when you can just lower the price into a range where people won't have to pirate it? Which isn't to say that some people won't still pirate stuff, but I bet the amount would seriously decline if people knew they could afford stuff. Posted by: Kakaze at February 11, 2002 12:47 PMKakaze: I agree. Related to that why do you think things like Napster are so popular? Not simply because people are naturally "bad" but more likely because they are sick and tired of paying 20 bucks for over-marketed, over-hyped CDs with one or two good songs on them. They should either lower the prices or raise the quality instead of concentrating on making one song good enough to be the single. *Not that I'm ranting* Wow that is really unlike me. This place is certainly having an affect. Oh and Wil don't let the morons get you down. I'm sure that most people at SA and Fark know it was all in fun. Angry people tend to post the most. (This site being a very pleasant exception) That does not mean it is an accurate representation of the general opinion. Posted by: Gaea at February 11, 2002 01:00 PMWil, Your kids are lucky. You may be annoying but they are lucky. My dad isn't around anymore and it's nice to know there are men like you who aren't afraid like my dad was of responsibility and the junk that comes with having kids. Sometime's I wish my dad was still around. Growing up without one is hell and I hope to God no one ever has to go through what I have been through. OKAY DEPRESSING MOMENT! LOL! Sorry. Posted by: DaleJrBlueEyes at February 11, 2002 01:03 PMWho the hell wants to hear a joke? Ok then here it is: Two people walk into a bar and order a martini. One guy goes to the bathroom while the other waits for him. Thank you! Thank you very much! WOO HOO HOO!!! You'll laugh later.... TRUST ME Posted by: Robbie at February 11, 2002 01:11 PMWhat thuh? Anyway, I felt so bad about Gary Coleman having to admit to Ron Jeremy that he was a virgin, that I stopped watching The Weakest Link. That, and that annoying little twerp they use for the daily iteration thereof. Posted by: LeatheJ1 at February 11, 2002 01:20 PMthat pic is.....dyn-o-mite! Posted by: lush housewife at February 11, 2002 01:29 PMOk, stupid question, but why don't the kids have school today? Tomorrow is Lincoln's b-day and next monday is Pres' Day. Unless it's one of those "Teacher's Inservice" that we all looked forward to. And, I can't seem to get SA to load - it's taking FOREVER. Is it sposed to do that, or is there a technical difficulty? Thanks! Posted by: noworriesmon at February 11, 2002 01:30 PMOk, stupid question, but why don't the kids have school today? Tomorrow is Lincoln's b-day and next monday is Pres' Day.

Posted by: noworriesmon at February 11, 2002 01:31 PMWow...how'd they make you black, Wil? Posted by: Roughy at February 11, 2002 01:38 PMThat picture just gave me an horrendous 80's flashback, and I am hoping this isn't true, but I believe that Mr Hasselhof was the official singer at the Berlin Wall when they had a tearing down, East joins West celebration. He had a jacket on which was covered in flashing lights! He was working the crowd! Or do I just have a really twisted imagination? I printed out that picture of Knight Rider and the little twerp himself, and put it over my monitor. Its hilarious, and I'm filled with some sort of perverted joy every time i look at it. Posted by: Dan Parsons at February 11, 2002 02:08 PMOk. There's a fantastically funny thing over on Fark today, saying how everybody should vote for Uncle Willy to play all the parts in Atlas Shrugged. I can just see it. "A is A! A is A!" He'd put the Ojectivist smack down! I'm sorry. I'm far too easily amused. Posted by: Beth at February 11, 2002 02:12 PMGreat pic Wil. I love that car... (tear) Posted by: mike at February 11, 2002 02:32 PMDamn, I wish I woodda had time to enter that contest, you win free beer right? Those were some funny ass pictures. I can't seem to get some of these links to work though dagbabbit! Posted by: t e s at February 11, 2002 02:33 PMNoworriesmom~ ooo you combined furries and negativland in one paragraph. hats off, sir. Posted by: pk at February 11, 2002 03:12 PMit must be obvious the you=FAGOT and I WILL EAT YOUR CHILDREN. WIL. I WILL EAT THEM. Posted by: steve at February 11, 2002 03:30 PMThat picture is the BOMB!!! "child actors", I mean...oops Posted by: grrrlblush at February 11, 2002 03:45 PMI'm new too all of this, i just found Wil's site last night. Both sites are cool. Totally cracked out, but cool. to me the competition sounds cheezy. Posted by: Ronda LOU at February 11, 2002 03:56 PMI am so amused by your comments on the pictures, and by the comments on your comments. That was very enjoyable. Can I be your friend? I have boobies. So does my husband, although we prefer to call those man-titties. I once had an autographed picture of David H with Kitt. Seems I lost it, what a shame, that thing could have been worth something, like rolling up to snort... oh, nevermind, I don't do that. You should let me know next time you come to Vegas, I know of the BEST cheesy lounge... picture fake cheery trees in bloom and miniature carafes of peanuts at every dimly lit table. Nice. Posted by: the goddess at February 11, 2002 05:19 PMWIL!!!!! What was that outburst on Fark? You really let some of those comments get to you, I thought you would be prepared for the abuse. C'mon, chin up, don't be a pathetic cringing little milksop. Good thing Fark won. I'm personally surprised at a few of the "classic remakes" that weren't suggested.... "Knight Rider" featuring David Hasselhoff and [insert 30 porn stars here] would have been a given, if I had any photoshop abilities. Maybe I'll have to suggest it to Spudnuts or Roughy next time. Maybe they can work cheese into it. Or doughnuts. Definitely hookers. Posted by: JSc at February 11, 2002 05:42 PMKakaze, I hear you, but not all companies give their employees things for free. Especially the expensive stuff. So go fig. Anyways, I had the same thought that if it was less expensive, people would be more likely to fork the cash over for it. Or even do the shareware thing, and have a "lite" version (in PS's case, it would be TOTALLY lite) and pay a more expensive price for different levels of features? Waitamin. What about Photoshop LE? Posted by: Courtney at February 11, 2002 05:51 PMFetus: Go read again, with appropriate amount of sarcasm and "I wish I were Jack Black"-ness. It's all good. :) BTW- your posts at FARK make me smile. Posted by: wil at February 11, 2002 06:09 PMGreat pic Wil!!! That brought back so much memories for me. I being the tender age of 28 had a huge crush on David Hasselhoff back in the 80's. I know call it lame, or as you see it, but hey I would take back my childhood memories for anything. Thanks for posting that pic, and making my long night at work worth a smile. Your the MAN Uncle Willy!!! Posted by: Marie at February 11, 2002 06:54 PMMan, the shiat u had 2 take for judging that contest. I don't know how u do it Wil. Posted by: christopher hearns at February 11, 2002 07:26 PMdue to some recent legislation in my state (pl 221 I think) we are required to do "continous school improvement plans" and the like which means at least one inservice day a month plus we hqve a bunch of half days for it too. *whine* I am sick of this garbage I just want to teach kids! all better from my whine now :) amellia Posted by: jadis at February 11, 2002 07:28 PMI don't share your love for SA Wil. But, my two cents on the Photoshop contest is: Truth:As long as we all laughed at something, the world is a better place. Reality:Some people work too hard on Photoshops and take it personally if certain pics were not placed high enough in the standings. I love to laugh but if you're going to take it personally, don't exert yourself. Posted by: Tharow at February 11, 2002 07:29 PMAugh! My retinas are burnt out! I'm typing this blind. Thanks a lot, Wil! ;P Posted by: MatrixRaven at February 11, 2002 07:31 PMNice chessy pic. Posted by: adeversole at February 11, 2002 08:28 PMLocation: North Central (rural) Massachusetts, almost to the New Hampshire ("Live Free or Die") border! Wil, Was reading your comments from a few days back about visiting the "old sound stages" at Paramount and the pangs of nostalgia. About five years ago I came out to the East Coast after several years as an astronomer and researcher at a university in the "Great Rocky Mountain West." It took me a long time to get over the feelings of nostalgia and homesickness that I'd experience every time we went back for visits. Finally, some few months ago, I finally made peace with the following thoughts: that what I really missed was the old times, the old crowd, and -- surprisingly -- the old me. Time has passed now, and the team I worked with has dispersed, the circumstances under which we worked are no longer operative, and *I'm* not the same old me who worked there. I've grown and moved on. That may sound pretty simple, but I was so busy missing the old times, etc., that it took me a while to see it. Now, I've had the opportunity to tour the Trek sets with a friend who works with the shows -- and I can see why you'd miss it. It's a creative place, lots of mojo flowing, and dang, it was probably a barrel of fun most of the time. Same with my previous position. So, those memories stay with me, and can't be taken away. And, sure, when I fly back to the old digs, I smile fondly and think of the great times, the work we did, the laughs we had, and the marvelous, witty people with whom I worked. And, while it's true that you can't go home and "nothing will ever be the same" -- the memories are still to be treasured. So, treasure the nostalgia Wil -- it's normal, natural, and boy sometimes does it sneak up when you least expect it! Posted by: SpaceWriter at February 11, 2002 08:46 PMUm, SA won the ad, though. You guys just won the team, and thus, get nothing. Learn to read. Posted by: Banjooie at February 11, 2002 09:10 PMLong live Kit!!! (Ya, thats the car's name) As you can see, Kit is smiling. Kit is about to have lunch. Poor kid.
Robbie: Whuh?! Ever make a weird noise at your dog, and he gives you that LOOK? You just made that noise, and I'm givin' you that look. Posted by: Fraize at February 12, 2002 07:57 AMA day off from school on a Monday? Wow, that's so foreign to me. Posted by: ymous_annon at February 12, 2002 08:41 AMWil --- I still think you're a moron and a loser. Nothing's going to change that until you start buying those who pay ten dollars to go see crappy Trek movies beer. Lots and lots of beer. No god damn Zimas, either. HOWEVER...that having been said, I, too, think you could've done just a bit better in the Photoshop judging. Remember, some of these were worked on for awhile, and also the average FARK reader has the Photoshop skills and creative abilities of an orangatang in heat, so maybe you shouldn't have been so hard on them. Always remember, Wesley Crusher sucks, Wil Wheaton...also sucks (just not as much). Keep the peace. ---Dingleberry You people do realize that someone was trying to defend furries and nobody even commented on it, right? Posted by: Moosechees at February 12, 2002 01:48 PMYou people do realize that someone was trying to defend furries and nobody even commented on it, right? Posted by: Moosechees at February 12, 2002 01:48 PMAm I trippin or what? LOL... KITT and DH and GC... where's my valium? LOL Stand by me's comming on on the Bravo channel at 8. If you've never seen it u should watch it it's really good. Posted by: MeL at February 12, 2002 04:24 PMwil wheaton sucks? that he does the camp get!...come on...think about it...the man is gay!!! anyone who denies it must be gay themselves! Posted by: Angelus at February 12, 2002 04:59 PMAirwolf...now there is a program....aaaaahhhh the memories....reminising of the days when all major fans of the program wanted to do was fly a bell222b chopper. Long may it live on Bravo.... Posted by: Angelus at February 12, 2002 05:01 PMsleepy Posted by: wil at February 12, 2002 08:34 PMYa know, being the last to post a comment says something about the poster.... He's content with the knowledge that no one will read his posts because the topic has long since been dead, so he need not say anything of worth. Except of course..... THE END. Posted by: SLiDERPiMP at February 13, 2002 03:30 AMUhmkay... That's one seriously lame pic, dude... Posted by: what-EVER at February 13, 2002 07:08 AMI saw the pic and about fell out of my chair I laughed so hard! Gees! I knew David H. was tall but Gary makes him look that much taller! And how the heck did David fit into such a small car? Posted by: imaginarylenna at February 16, 2002 07:26 PMUmm Angelus's comments make me almost ashamed of having my name be Angelus on msn. Posted by: Ben Sisko at February 23, 2002 01:40 AMFUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. FUCK. Posted by: FUCKEDY FUCKWIT at April 23, 2002 11:14 AMjust watching Conan o'BRian and the funny dude from Stealing Harvard (not Tom Green) had made a t-shirt of your pic and was wearing it on the show....great pic btw...later!
