Front Page at an ALL-TIME LOW

A Racoon with a guitar? A movie-poster for Buick? A Panda twirling in a tree? A Bear with an inner tube?

Worst . . . Front . . . Page . . . Ever

Remember when the front pages had really good stuff? I do, and it wasn't so long ago.

I blame this damn war thing.

(BigKGChicago, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:18, archived)

glad to see you're doing your part

/pedanty

edit: you may be onto something, I think that this is a great example of what a front page should look like

(TheTruffleShuffle, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:19, archived)

Well . . .

If you think that's anything but WELL BELOW AVERAGE quality compared to the normal front page, you're out of your mind.

Edit - and I just looked at your front pages, and they are consistently better than the utter shite currently up.

(BigKGChicago, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:23, archived)

well, i am rather crazy

but i am well within my mind. how can you not laugh at the dancing panda though?

edit: thanks, drinking helps

(TheTruffleShuffle, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:26, archived)

Well you must be drunk

If you are laughing at that dumbass panda post.

I'm now blaming the mod . . .

. . . and the war thing.

(BigKGChicago, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:28, archived)

i can agree with the war,

but i never blame the magic donkey

edit: agree with the war being distracting to true hummus-ology, but not that it should be happening

(TheTruffleShuffle, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:29, archived)

That's because you must bow to the magic donkey

Or they'll screw you next time you do something good and put something idiotic (like a dog in a picture frame with a porkpie hat) on the front page.

I have no such worries.

(BigKGChicago, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:31, archived)

hehehe

dog with a porkpie hat, that brilliant!

(TheTruffleShuffle, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:32, archived)

should be on the front page

(

armaitus Sheep Casings!, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:46, archived)

It was the picture frame

that made it...

(May I also point out I've had some "not nice" front pages...)

(

K3rry, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 9:09, archived)

now now

your mother should have told you its not noice to lie

edit: truthfully, I've never seen a frontpager that wasn't totally fantabulous. 100% of FACT to steal a phrase

(TheTruffleShuffle, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 9:12, archived)

I don't lie!

I'll post another good picture as soon as I finish fighting this dragon.....

K3rry, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 9:23, archived)

war?

there's a war on?
/sarcasm

I actually like some of the current front pages... I don't now Jack but I know what I like... if I were to criticise I'd do it constructively at least... rather than just saying they are all poor... and that opinion would be based on having posted poor pictures myself... incessantly... for almost a year

I like the bear

yeh!

you're not bitter

at all, are you..

(

munkt0n, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:28, archived)

Why would I be bitter?

I've never posted a picture to be considered for the front page.

(BigKGChicago, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:29, archived)

so why bitch

about other peoples pictures?

(

munkt0n, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:30, archived)

thats what i was trying to say

munkt0n, you are so eloquent, i am envious of your oratory skills

ooh, seconded

your a meanie

(

gracielou, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:32, archived)

Because . . .

I love b3ta -- I love the humor and the quality. And I'm disappointed when that quality goes down the fucking tubes.

I'm also the voice of reason, because I don't make pictures, so I don't have to do any arse-kissing.

See?

(BigKGChicago, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:33, archived)

I make pictures

and I don't kiss arse... this war thing is really getting to you isn't it?

(

armaitus Sheep Casings!, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:34, archived)

And no front pages for almost nine months?

Coincidence? I don't think so!

You're not nice enough!

Everything is clever and great! Repeat ad nauseum!

(BigKGChicago, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:36, archived)

its not about the frontpaging

its about making others laugh

(TheTruffleShuffle, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:38, archived)

That's a rather cynical viewpoint

I just happen to have made fairly cruddy pictures since my last front page... I post them to raise a laugh... not to get on the front page.

(

No you don;t,

it's special braille

for those in the VI community without fingers to read with.

Nope

Maybe it's coz I can't read braille?

well

the people whose front pages you're slating didin't kiss ass. as far as I'm concerned that is a typical front page, nothing wrong with it at all..

fine expose on why it is futile to criticize others work.

ITS ART DAMMIT! IT DOESN"T MATTER WHETHER OR NOT YOU LIKE IT, SOMEONE DOES, THATS ALL THAT MATTERS

/huff

(TheTruffleShuffle, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:34, archived)

Sorry

I didn't realize we all had to be so nice. I fear this culture of utter niceness is what has caused this crap to be on the front page.

(BigKGChicago, Mon 17 Mar 2003, 8:34, archived)

I'm never nice

I'm honest

I'm outspoken

I'm me

However if you post a picture and I think it's crap I don't reply to it

You however would appear to reply to it and say "that's crap"

You must keep yourself *real* busy posting then...
