Hail to the king, baby.

The Stinker

…I know, it’s a terrible pun and an immature concept, but that’s pretty much why it had to be done.

The Altered Mind

Mind not-quite-in-the gutter? Mind on the floor? Single-track mind? If I’d got it in the photo, sheltered Mind? Plenty of expressive opportunities, but I just fudged about with the colours to make it seem a little distant, dulled and more importantly, to leave the question open so it’d make a good desktop wallpaper.

What? I’m just not in a philosophical/self-indulgent arty/angsty description/bullshit mood at 2315. I just found it amusing. After all, it’s a mind I’ve quite often trampled all over. Often when losing my own over train timetabling, delays and level crossing failures…

…but that’s a blog entry for another time. Soon. I promise.

Cheltenham

A variation on the “Gentlemen” meme based on the Spy Class from Team Fortress 2.

(Original picture of Cheltenham found via Google Images and the source has disappeared. Contact me for a due credit if you have the original photo.)

Pedospy

Modification of an image of the Spy class from TF2 involving another internet meme. If you do not understand the meme, I wouldn’t recommend looking it up.

So, having graduated from Bristol, I was in a position where it wouldn’t be fair for me to run for positions. The year before, I had run a satirical campaign for RON (Re-Open Nominations) with a photoshopped picture of Hedley Lamarr from Blazing Saddles, launching a faux autocratic campaign that four people on AGM day said they would have voted for.  The bad-taste ante had to be stepped up and so The Lemon Party was created…

Lemon Party Banner

…complete with a rosette for individual campaign manifestos to use…

Lemon Party Rosette

…and candidates for nearly every position, some of who signed up to the party after its launch, others making due reference to the united platform. Using the Obamicon.me website (and subsequent colour modification), I created a teaser poster before the party’s launch to sit in a forum thread, making people wonder what we were up to in the shadows.

Sadly, only one of the candidates got elected into a position, largely by his own merits as a TF2 Soldier impersonator and immense discount organising capability rather than the Lemon Party monikers and the actual rosettes I bought off the internet. The less said about the failed Presidential candidate’s sabotage run on the Treasurer position the better.

I put these up on here so that if someone, somewhere is annoyed with the politics their society, JCR or whatever goes through at least once a year, they can just rip these (or at least draw inspiration from a similarly cynical and disillusioned spirit) and make people realise the lighter side of political change and discussion: scathing satire.

I Question The General

A crude modification based on a “lolcat” from ICanHasCheezburger.com and an image of the D-Day landings from Iconic Photos at WordPress.com.

The original “lolcat” this was based on was an apparent rebuke of the typical “lolcat” style. It was linked to in the Bristol Computer Gaming Society’s (COGS) IRC channel with “I Question The General” in the URL and being a cautious scanner of URLs before clicking them, I envisaged it would be an image similar in concept to this.

Wanna Know How I Got These Scars?

A simple modification of a common image from a picture board, based on “The Dark Knight”. The original reads something along the lines of “WTF am I reading?” and is used generally to express disdain for something stupid said by or discussed over by several people in a thread. Another product of being linked to something whilst lurking on COGS’ IRC channel and errant imagination.

How Are You Gentlemen

An (obvious) variation on the “Gentlemen” meme featuring Cats from  “All Your Base”.

Clement Hatglee

The product of a bad pun on the Bristol University’s Computer Gaming Society (COGS)’s IRC channel, following the hat fad on Team Fortress 2.
