What the screaming fuck is this?

Besides an invalid direct link, of course. :rolleyes:

(Right-click, copy shortcut, click link, paste URL into refusal window, Enter.)

Mine is on the first smiley.

Whoa. On yours, I don’t see a smiley. Whatever’s happening – it’s spreading!

I don’t see a smiley either.

I think They are trying to mess with us. Now we just have to figure out who They are.

That Carrot Dude on the seed packet will haunt my dreams.

My dad had one of those metal safety razors like the baby is holding. They weighed a ton, and the blades were held inplace by tightening a screw on the handle. “Safety Blades” were only safe once you got them fastened into the razor. And they had to be held very carefully.
So, the ad is a little less cringe worthy than a baby holding a straight razor, but not much.

ironically ciggarettes were advertised as smooth, healthy and good for your throat.That is why I dont fault old people for smoking as much as I do the youngsters. They didnt know.

Must be good - the site’s blocked at work. Oh, well. I can still get to Lileks.

Nope, it doesn’t. All I get in Zebra’s post is:

No link.

It can be, mate.
I never realized that the Nazis used blowjob geese as part of their Blitzkrieg. Or that they invaded the stereotypical American South.

“20,000 anguished girls wrote its blistering story!” Must be a bitch for the WGA to send out residual checks.

If you are talking about post #36 I’m on IE at the moment and I don’t see any smilies at all in that post. :confused: (<- Confussed smilie in case it does not show)

Goddamn kids! Get off my lawn!

Weirddave’s post seems to have nothing in it.

Quit messin’ wit ma head!

I started a thread about this over in ATMB but so far no one has responded.

I posted this in the ATMB thread, but I thought I’d include it here, too:

You don’t see any links (or smilies–or linked smilies) in either of Mr. Rosewater’s posts because there are none; he didn’t include any. As for Dijon Warlock’s problem, the links all show for me in Opera 9.01, Firefox 1.5.0.7, IE 6 and IE 7 RC1–and that’s true whether I’m logged in or logged out. It sounds, at this point, like the missing links (heh) might be a local browser issue for Dijon Warlock.

Dijon Warlock, you might try switching browsers to see if the problem persists; if it doesn’t, then your current browser is, for some reason, the problem.

Thanks, Skip. I don’t care what everyone says about you, you’re a good guy. :wink:

Yeah, how is Skip going to win the most hated Mod competition if he keeps up like this?
:slight_smile:

Before there was Carrot Top . . . there was Carrot Bottom (seed, you know :wink: )

Ronald Reagan hawking Chesterfields (we used to call those “lung busters”) is pretty funny. I always knew Reagan wasn’t good for you.

The little black kid is getting goosed (by a goose) but I don’t get what it has to do with blitzkrieg.

I don’t get the Pepsi Generation one, either (lower right-hand corner). Unless there’s a subliminal message, or I’m not reading enough into the imagery, it just looks like…an ad for Pepsi.

Gimme another ten minutes. I’m sure I’ll do something.
