I wonder how people figure out they have this talent. I also wonder what sort of bottom-up versus top-down processing is involved in looking at a piece of beef jerky and thinking, "That could be Sasquatch's tooth."
However, this one is a little odd.

Yeah, I wonder if it was supposed to have that kind of suggestive tone to it.
I personally like the junk ones made from the subjects' own household junk, like Phyllis Diller.
Although Tina Fey w/ a conehead action figure in it is pretty sweet.
But I don't think anything can top Snoop Dogg for relevance.

Jesus H. Christ on a stick that's eerily effective
Although on a second try I get:
| Quote: | | Second, I'd tell them to look at Denmark, which all but solved its education crisis over the past decade. When I visited Denmark in 1998, Tintin, the cabbie who drove me from the airport, couldn't stop telling me about how he had to take a third job because of the high cost of education. I caught up with Tintin in Copenhagen last year. Thanks to Denmark's reformed approach toward education, Tintin has enough money in his pocket to finally be able to afford a smartphone for his kids. |
Which is funny in a whole different way

hey, tintin's lucky he's not in iceland:
| Quote: | | Second, I'd tell them to look at Iceland, which all but solved its prescription drugs crisis over the past decade. When I visited Iceland in 1998, Bartho, the cabbie who drove me from the airport, couldn't stop telling me about how he had to take a fourth job because of the high cost of prescription drugs. I caught up with Bartho in Reykjavik last year. Thanks to Iceland's reformed approach toward prescription drugs, Bartho has enough money in his pocket to finally be able to afford an apartment for his kids. |
on the other hand, iceland has clearly had a tremendous improvement - what's a mere smartphone compared to an apartment!

If you thought of yourself as a writer or creative person, you owe yourself to watch this.
I wouldn't promote is so hard, but I found it's only free streaming for this month.
Please watch
Bad writing (Documentary)
Yes it's a full on documentary of one and half hours, but worth the time.

Just finished watching it.
Yeah, it's definitely a must see. About 90% is stuff I've heard before, but sometimes things need repeating. Also, the remaining 10% is really good advice.

Boil The Frog supposedly generates a "seamless playlist" to transition between any two artists you care to put in.
You be the judge. |

The basic lesson is accept failure as part of any creative process. I like who he demonstrated by keeping a lot of mistakes/bloopers in the documentary itself. In a way he practices what he preaches.
