# Anyone heard anything about this?
Apparently, b3ta's been invited to a multi-site Photoshop contest (warning: obnoxious, but work safe, image at top.)

We could probably kick their arse, to be honest. Has rob commented yet?

# couldn't we just get humandescent
tedmus and the other awesome photoshoppers to kill them, but probably some profession who gets paid £80k a year to pohotoshop will enter

# I think so.
The average quality is lower here than Something Awful, because youhave to pay $10 just to join their forums. (Keeps the trolls out, I guess, but it'd keep a lot of good people out here too.)

But since it's just the best from each site that play, I think we could take them.

it is going to be a bit odd trying for common ground. The sites involved have very differing content and are all valid in their own way.

Gosh, Mel Gibson's a bit of a cunt. I knew he was a Catholic, but apparently he describes himself as "pro capital punishment, anti-abortion, anti-feminism, and anti-gay"... but not anti-semetic, despite being a memember of a breakaway Catholic sect which believes Jews to be collectively responsible for Christ's murder, and making that weird fillum which he refuses to show to the anti-defamation league. If even a fraction of that is true, I don't think I'll be watching his films again.

That is all.

# it became a bit of a joke, his anti-englishness
i mean, i don't mind when he makes the english out to be a bigger bunch of cunts than they are - braveheart, the patriot, etc - but in we wee soldiers or whatever it was called, he actually wrote an english character out and divvied up th heroics performed (for example: he jumped on a grenade to save his platoon - it didn't go off) between yanks...

the man's just laughable...

# yes but
apparently he's making a bit of a habit of that sort of thing. After the (fantastically dodgy) The Patriot and now with this The Passion thing.

[edit]And now I must get in the shower, and sort out some brekkie, and stuff.

is a good bit worse than Braveheart for that.

You're pic of Tomsk is de bestest!
Yes you are quite right- Mel Gibson is a prper cnut. Believes himself to be some sort of pieous figure in film.

Pah.

is entirely in aramaic and latin.

he's gone mad, is the only plausible conclusion.

oh, and he says that every pope since 1965 has been the devil.

# technically
most Christian religions outside of the mainstream Roman Catholic Church still believe that the Jewish people are collectively responsible for the death of Jesus, because they left before the second Vatican Council where that one was officially ruled offside.

Not that this means they actively believe it or anything, I should add. That would be crazy talk.

There again, the Free Church of Scotland believes foot and mouth disease was God's punishment on Britain for the Queen meeting the Pope, so you never know ...
