A couple bad Flash ads and a side of bad spam.



Are hookers getting so expensive that you need to refinance to afford one? And really, who wants to be locked-in with the same hooker for 30 years? Everyone knows that diversity is the name of that game, baby!

I'm pretty sure these are the same people that use jiggling spiders, creepy-assed clowns and stretched dogs in their ads as well.

Now on to the next ad. This one actually comes from a major automotive manufacturer and I'm seeing it everywhere. Shame it's stupid and done wrong. I'm blurring out the manufacturer because I really have received enough Cease and Desist notices to last me a good while.

"Grab Life for a Lifetime!"? What the hell does that even mean? And "roll over" is something you say to your dog or young children as a way to get them to do a trick. "Roll over this ad..." you dorks. But... What happened when I rolled over the ad?

This ---->

That's right. The ad opened up behind my web mail. Just awesome. Really. Luckily for them I'm not in the market to buy a Dod... new car anytime soon.

And lastly, the side of spam you've been waiting for with much anticipation, I'm sure:

Spam 1b

Well, I'm glad to hear that you've attained a high level of security and are FINALLY keeping up with the times, you stodgy old Bank Administration. It really stops trying after the second sentence. "Take note of the message..."? "...follow all the instruction"? "...we have your first born male"? Pathetic really. I have my first born male. I can see him from here, sitting on his teenaged butt across the room from me.

Best regards,
Fizzle & Pop Administration.

More derby art.

From the website:

"We're tired of pirates. OK, we've had a laugh (or larrrrf) over Talk Like A Pirate Day (this Wednesday, Sept. 19), but how much more can we take before we walk our own plank? We need a new historical archetype to ironically adopt: Vikings, gauchos, centurions, samurai, Foreign Legionnaires, monks, Cossacks, something...your task this week, then, is to design a t-shirt for an archetype to replace the pirate."

I have another idea as well, I just don't have the time to commit to it. Oh well.

My first post on my new blog. Too bad it won't be a keeper.

Again, to get to my other blog go to http://www.fizzleandpop.blogspot.com or http://fizzleandpop.vox.com/.

Nothing is happening at either right now as I'm far too busy trying to get this beast up and running. At some point comments will be enabled, etc. Until then...

um...

Here are my two latest designs for the Shirt.Woot derby:

They aren't doing so well, but I'm getting used to that.
