Well, at least your nitpicking comment was actually somewhat productive, and a lot less mean than what I'm used to dealing with.

I've edited the article so as not to offend any more nitpickers out there who might read it and have something to say. By the way- don't, run-on, I'm, it's.

Now that's a sharp look, but it probably makes playing kissyface when the lights go out a bit harder when the chaperones can see you from across the room!

He was definitely being sarcastic, and try as I might to have my sarcasm come through in a post it's hard to convey sarcasm effectively without going over the top.

I probably should have added a few more "totally" and "really" type words to sell my sarcasm, but I def wanted his sarcastic statement to speak for itself.

Stan has always been really sharp so he must have detected George's sarcasm and handled it as best he could. His replies to fan mail were usually much longer and more meaningful, so this was just his way of shrugging off George's sarcasm.

My favorite sarcastic part of George's letter, oh so undeniably sarcastic- "in what other mag could you see things like a hero falling down a manhole..." Scathing!

I thought the same thing when I watched this video! Such a great movie!

Haha, now that is ridiculously awesome! It appears Tetris truly is the most ported (am I using that term correctly?) video game ever made.

I'm not sure why you consider this "jumping on the bandwagon", it appears you're simply unaware of this art movement.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperrealism_%28visual_arts%29

Hyperrealism sprang from the photorealism movement in painting and sculpture from the 1960s and 70s, but where photorealism is simply making something look as realistic as possible hyperrealism adds a narrative and emotional element to the work.

So when you walk into your average wax museum the figures are just standing there looking like their human counterparts, aka photorealism, while most of Bobby's works contain an emotional element that makes them come to life even more than a simple photorealistic sculpture.

While it's true that not all of Bobby's works would fall into the category of hyperrealism the vast majority contain a narrative or emotional element, such as Jack's screaming face and axe, which make this a more appropriate title. However, like the names of many artistic movements it's subject to personal interpretation, and tends to make nitpickers foam at the mouth.

In the future if you have a question about a terminology, or why someone decided to use a particular term in their post, it would probably be best if you just ask without all the snark, and without using potentially insulting phrases like "jumping on the bandwagon". Otherwise good question and I hope I answered it to your satisfaction!

I was speaking more from the general public's point of view, personally I'd be fine with extremely graphic/racy/etc. public art works, but people in general wouldn't want to see them, and they would find those kind of statues to be acceptable for young kids to see.

Just because I wrote an article from a point of view doesn't mean it reflects my actual opinion in life, but you obviously have a narrow margin for interpretation and take everything anyone writes at face value.

You're welcome Alan!

Thanks for letting me know Michael, the links are both fixed now!

I doubt those newscasters are very proud of this billboard fail pic either!

Ummm, not sure which site you've been reading but we post fun stuff like this all the time. Your words- "Neatorama is not a news source, it's an entertainment source."
Everything doesn't have to be a story, sometimes you gotta lighten the mood up a bit with some funny pics!

Agreed, and the only problem I have with these videos is I always want to play the game afterwards! Too bad it's so much easier to make an animated short than a playable game.

Thanks for the edit Jeff!

Yeah, she really needs to step up her turkey painting game!

After I graduated from art school my cake should have read "dey tuker job!" LOL
