That is just really, really, really funny.

Must be time for a "Frodo Lives" or "Obey Giant" style stencil campaign...

Choose Wesley!!!

(How about some gear, HMIC?)

Posted by: Drakensykh at January 14, 2003 09:26 AM

Ha! Thats pretty funny. I like that. Finally, something today to put a smile on my face!

Posted by: jl at January 14, 2003 09:26 AM

Posted by: LustBunny at January 14, 2003 09:29 AM

It is amazing what photoshop can do. I have fun with this program too.

Wohooo!!! I am the first person posting. :)

Posted by: Deeejay at January 14, 2003 09:29 AM

Oh well. I was wrong and made a fool of myself again. Nothing new. I wasn't the first poster. Oh well, there is always another time.

Great shades of Indiana Jones!

So long as no one links to Pauley Shore with a "He Chose... Pauley..." sign, I'll be happy.

Posted by: Matt Quirk at January 14, 2003 09:31 AM

I must get photoshop. ;-)

Posted by: annastazia at January 14, 2003 09:32 AM

Posted by: Edie at January 14, 2003 09:45 AM

Har.

Who chooses Wesley, chooses geekdom.
;)

Posted by: Patty at January 14, 2003 09:51 AM

Wesley, er, Wil, I've been choosing you since I was 15. Just don't tell my husband that.

Posted by: cs at January 14, 2003 09:52 AM

Are you meant too be famous?

Posted by: Hmm at January 14, 2003 10:00 AM

OMG! You gotta put that on a t-shirt.

Posted by: blewismaltz at January 14, 2003 10:17 AM

I think I saw George Michael wearing that on a shirt on the 80's

Posted by: buntz at January 14, 2003 10:19 AM

WOOHOO! Driving traffic to my site!

Nice job on the photoshopping, MaxXanth. You have my permission to use that photo on a shirt. You'll need to get his permission to use the modifications, though. :)

Posted by: metsfan at January 14, 2003 10:20 AM

A photoshop *masterpiece*.

Posted by: ionicus at January 14, 2003 10:20 AM

shouldn't that read something more like:

$finalpic = photoshop($this) + comedy();

or possibly

$finalpic = comedy(photoshop($this));

ok, ok

/me scampers off.

How long have you been a Pokemon? Or are you campaigning for one of your own?

Posted by: Clay at January 14, 2003 10:22 AM

Cute, Wil. Wonder what would happen if you put that up in Florida polling places in 2004......

Posted by: shauna at January 14, 2003 10:24 AM

There is a sign that says something akin to that at the Indiana Jones ride at Disney. The caption reads something like, ''WARNING: OBJECTS THAT FALL FROM THE CAR WILL DISAPPEAR''

Posted by: the super genius at January 14, 2003 10:29 AM

*LMAO* Killed me right off.

Posted by: JayWolfie at January 14, 2003 10:34 AM

Definitely put that on a t-shirt. A nice way to start my Wednesday morning. Work = Yuck.

Posted by: Tiana at January 14, 2003 10:52 AM

haHAA!

Good one!

Posted by: Sarcastic Cheese at January 14, 2003 10:53 AM

. . .could this possibly suggest Paramount is actually going to do something relevant with Star Trek? I think the adult Wesley could put some life back into things over there. . . Nemesis had some fab fx, but I left the theater basically unmoved when all was said and done...

Posted by: b at January 14, 2003 10:53 AM

Where's this Photoshop contest? On Fark?

Posted by: belinda at January 14, 2003 11:04 AM

SWEET! somebody has a lot of time on there hands, and they are using that time wisely.

LONG LIVE WES CRUSHER!!!!!!

Posted by: terry at January 14, 2003 11:06 AM

That's rad. I'll add another vote to the 'put it on a t-shirt' campaign.
:o)

Posted by: Reena at January 14, 2003 11:10 AM

WOW that was too funny! :-D For the first time all day I have a real smile on my face... Thank You Wil Wheaton!

Posted by: Jessica at January 14, 2003 11:11 AM

HA!

Posted by: Paul at January 14, 2003 11:11 AM

Thanks for the nice compliments everyone

Posted by: Agi at January 14, 2003 12:14 PM

Wheee that's my new desktop! *click click!*

Posted by: Jessie at January 14, 2003 12:22 PM

I agree with choose Wesley. Even if I was only 3 people in the country that liked the character!! Give Wil a chance people!!!

Loved it!!!

Posted by: Tracey Weiss at January 14, 2003 01:32 PM

Choose Wesley,

Choose Life.

I hate myself for typing cliches.

Well I laughed...

Posted by: EnglishBen at January 14, 2003 02:40 PM

What a great pic
I agree with the numerous other "put it on some merchandise" posts.

Posted by: Ryan_W at January 14, 2003 03:10 PM

Wil,

Forget what everyone is saying about putting that on a shirt... put it on my thong!

What is this? Is there a professional dodgeball league starting up?

Posted by: Fred Fowler at January 14, 2003 03:49 PM

Amen brother, Amen.


.....THE OZZMAN

Posted by: The Ozzman at January 14, 2003 05:26 PM

Tee shirts - schmee shirts! What's needed here is a spring collection of geeky bowling shirts. You already have the patterns.

They could be called the Uncle Willy Collection as designed by the lovely and talented Anne. And instead of the dude on the polo pony - a small profile of Ferris.

Posted by: JeffNTx at January 14, 2003 05:33 PM

I was at Disneyland for the first time in my life (and I'm about the same age as Will) last fall and noticed the original version of that sign - the one with the AT&T Logo - at the entrance to the Indiana jones ride. The original was pretty cool, but the Photoshop version is even better... though I doubt AT&T would want their Logo removed from the Disneyland version. ;) Good Job!

Posted by: Syrah at January 14, 2003 05:44 PM

Bowling shirts. Great idea. I like it.

Posted by: metsfan at January 14, 2003 06:26 PM

This is beautiful! I vote for the "add it to the T-shirt" list. Has anyone submitted this link to fark?

Posted by: MIAnne at January 14, 2003 06:30 PM

I have to agree with Buntz . The first thing I thought of was instead of on a T-Shirt, "Frankie says RELAX" it should be "Unkle Willie says WEEEEEEEEEE" and love the 'Trainspotting' quote there English Ben. :o)

Posted by: Foxychik at January 14, 2003 06:33 PM

Shawna said: "Cute, Wil. Wonder what would happen if you put that up in Florida polling places in 2004......"

Well, I live in FL---all the old farts would write him in. Now if we'd only done this in the 2000 and 2002, we'd be free of both Bushes. Damn! Too late!

I want this on a t-shirt. Thanks for the smile before bedtime!

Gold. Just gold. :)

Posted by: Longpig at January 14, 2003 10:08 PM

Hmm...If Dick Berman decides to make another Trek movie, I'll be standing on a one-man picket line in front of Paramount Studios holding a big sign with that picture on it!

Posted by: WebNuT! at January 14, 2003 10:33 PM

Wil,
I hope that you did not play this part to long. I now know why some actors hate playing one part to long. At times you have Mr. CRUSHER on the brain. It was funny. It is strange to see that you still even think about this character. I guess this is what happens when a book is written. Yes, you have to much time on your hands. It must be nice.

I LOVE IT!

JUST LOVE IT !

Posted by: wade art at January 14, 2003 10:55 PM

That was so great. First time I smiled all morning!

Posted by: Eric at January 15, 2003 06:02 AM

That is funny Wil!

On an odd little side note, one of my wife's co-workers called to ask if I could come help them with their pc. I agreed and asked where she lived the reply threw me off when she said on Wesley.

I was thinking she must've said Weslake which I have heard of but I asked again to be sure and she said again Wesley. I go Wesley? and my wife chimes in yep and I'm thinking how farking odd is that?!

So now I feel like a doof for not having known there's a Wesley street in my neighborhood. Suffice to say I didn't believe it till I saw it but sure enough a black street sign with white letters WESLEY exists. Who says 'Trek' isn't forever?

Posted by: James Chicago at January 15, 2003 07:14 AM

Is it just me, or does no one else get reminded of the trainspotting "choose life" monologue that ewan macgregor did?

Posted by: Deacon Blues at January 15, 2003 08:44 AM

Hehehehe very cool =o)

Posted by: GreenEyes The Official CAT of Violence at January 15, 2003 07:05 PM

HA HA HA HA!!
Well done sir!

Posted by: Adam Crandall at January 16, 2003 05:08 AM
