I can't be the only one who thinks that pic of him in the wetsuit with the gun looks shopped

Rubbishly shopped, too - the face/gun-sight ratio and lighting are completely off.

I think he may be CGI and that Norway is actually a level in a FPS.

but if I wanted to avoid pictures about it I wouldn't fucking come to B3ta. Same as if I didn't want to hear jokes about it I wouldn't go to Sickipedia. Sometimes I think people are very quick to get offended at something they could happily have avoided.

i think it's the fact that there's some blurry dead bodies in the picture. personally i think it's an acceptable source pic (obviously), and the picture wasn't intended to get a "LMFAO" response, more a "ooof".

for similar reasons. Sure, they pixellated the bodies, but they're still dead bodies with someone standing over them holding the gun he used to kill them...
Anyway, I did what I thought was sensible and simply didn't comment and got off B3ta for a wguke rather than get on a high-horse. (Besides, I've posted someone being hung on here before simply so I could rant about Richard Quest, so I'm hardly one to talk.)

Next time, I want to see more heart shaped bunny rabbits made out of candy floss all being terribly polite to each other in an enchanted lapine utopia in the sky, Ok?

I am offended as well, I cannot imagine why you think posting a picture of dead children is even remotely funny. A lot of things on b3ta make me laugh, but some users seem to be engaged in a race to photoshop and post pictures of recent atrocities, sometimes just so they can tag it with "Too soon ?".
If you think I am having a sense of humour failure, please feel free what is so amusing about your picture.

The program "Lost" vs "Losing it" being slang for going mad, which is quite fun. He's also photoshopped it in the style of the programme, making the satire so much stronger, which adds to the humour. Finally there's the tagline "Season Finale" which alludes to punning on the victims having seen their last season.
In all, I think it's done quite well; it conveys the joke and captures the gallows humour, but I don't like the font.
