This has got to be the least appetizing picture I’ve ever fucking seen on a chip package

A photo I took of Pringles cans with the, I hope, limited-edition flavor “Beer Can Chicken.” It features an image of a fully, I would actually say way overdone, cooked chicken with a can of Miller Lite awkwardly photoshopped behind it. It’s almost like they’re evoking the IDEA of how you cook beer can chicken, but it’s all wrong. It’s all very unattractive.

I get what you’re saying—it’d be a little like Dr. Doom using a gun. Counterpoint, though: check out Dr. Doom using a gun

Same fighting game. Doom is now shooting the gun at Ghost Rider, and it’s firing a huge flare of energy and black blobs and stuff at poor GR.

Same game. The gun is so fuckin’ sweet that we see the entire screen has changed to a stark black and white, no gray. The effect almost makes you think Doom has shot some kind of nuke out of the gun

I don’t know shit about fighting games, but I can’t stop watching the trailer for Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls, where some absolute genius gave Dr. Doom a GUN

Screen from fighting game Marvel Tōkon: Fighting Souls, showing Dr. Doom very dramatically (of course) revealing he’s wearing a hip holster. And there’s a gun in it!

Dr. Doom using said gun on Ghost Rider (Robbie Reyes version). The gun is not shooting a bullet, but something that might as well be a tear in spacetime, or an exploding sun.

The initial explosion of the gun has run its course, but now, as Ghost Rider falls backward, the entire game screen has turned to a stark black and white for a moment, presumably because Doom’s gun has briefly destroyed all color in the vicinity, or perhaps the universe.

A white variety of the anemone flower. This one is commonly called “The Bride.” Its petals are white, and the center has a touch of green. The joke here is that Daniel Day-Lewis can disappear into a role so completely that he could actually turn into an anemone. It’s a really funny joke.

Yet more evidence that Calvin has never given a piece of bad advice in his life

A panel from the Calvin & Hobbes comic strip. Calvin has shoveled the snow from his house’s front stoop all the way around the back of the house before connecting to the driveway (which is only feet from the front stoop). There is an impassibly large pile of snow left directly on the stoop itself, in front of the door. “If you do the job badly enough, sometimes you don’t get asked to do it again,” Calvin explains to Hobbes.

Thrilled to see that the new He-Man movie will be honoring the universally beloved original by being set in the real world and looking cheap as shit

Camila Mendes as Teela, or at least that’s what her costume makes me think, and some giant himbo as Prince Adam but wearing Earth clothing. The Adam guy is loosely holding an absurd but I guess accurate version of the He-Man sword, but in a way no one would ever hold a sword. They are both staring in confusion at something outside of the shot, as various people in normal clothes mill around behind them. They seem to be in a park in a city. A city that is definitely on Earth.

Camila Mendes and the himbo running along the shoulder of a highway or city street, with fencing between them and the person taking this photo. There’s a giant black SUV alongside them. Himbo is still holding the sword as though he has no idea what a sword is, and has a blank expression on his face that suggests the actor is simply responding to a trainer’s commands, with the expectation of a treat if he does it right.

Photo of McDonald’s failed “reboot” of its Hamburglar character. Instead of a cartoon character, he is just a man with a five o’clock shadow, in an odd costume of a black trenchcoat and fedora, plus the classic robber’s domino mask and what I guess is an old-timey horizontally striped prison shirt. He also has a loose, ugly tie I think is decorated with hamburgers. And he’s wearing vinyl-looking red gloves. He looks at the camera, holding up a burger in one hand and holding a finger to his lips with the other, in the universal “shhh” sign. He seems reasonably attractive underneath the costume, but the entire effect of the photo is really creepy.
