There was a news story some years back about a restaurant manager who offered a “Green Toyota” to whoever had the most sales (or whatever). Upon winning the contest, the woman received a… Green Toy Yoda.

She sued and it became news. I assume the picture is from the news story.

Back to the OP, I kept cracking up through watching “The Golden Compass”, thinking of [this](http://i151.photobucket.com/albums/s138/thebatman42/BearCalvary.jpg)

This looks just like one of those map inserts in the National Geographic magazines.

Wow.

I notice Toronto is on the island of Wisdom, though. I think that’s inaccurate. We seem to have cut loose and are heading down the strait towards the peninsula of Hedonism.

(And Tokyo is the capital of Workaholic Island…)

I’m confused on that, too. Is it the Batman looking guy on the left side of the pic, or is there something in the red circle I’m missing. What’s the context?

I think it looks sorta kinda vaguely like a skull. Maybe.

And isn’t there a rule against posting pictures that suddenly shriek at you?

There is such a rule.

If you must post pop-up shock pictures - you must post a warning to them.

Which sort of defeats the purpose, but don’t do it anyway.

Thank you.

I think the idea is that you’ll focus on the red area, you’ll move your head closer, then your subconscious will tap your shoulder and ahem, “there’s a scary dude just to your left”
