I am seriously thinking of benching quick in my fantasy league for tonight's game.
What the hell is the matter with me.
2 wins in 10 games is horrible.

Bench him so he can get a shutout

 

[No Fun Shogun]

It's an elaborate ruse. Shoulda saved it for a playoff GDT, imho.

Nope, it's 100% real. Anybody of good site standing and not using internet explorer can view the masterpiece without issue.

Yeah sure.

 

[Jeff18]

I don't get it. I just see a little icon with a torn piece of paper and some shapes in it. Unless that's the joke...

That's the joke.

You must not have been around for Netscape Navigator and the golden infancy of the internet.

 

[Jeff18]

That's the joke.

I'm even more confused now...

I guess I'm not old enough to understand then.

Ah...The days of "please connect..please connect..please connect.."

So did you guys all PM each other beforehand...?

 

[Bandit]

I guess I'm not old enough to understand then.

In the old days Netscape (the defacto web browser at the time) would display that icon to indicate a broken image link on a web page.

Edit: And don't be sad about not being old enough, it's a great time to be young!

 

[DocWest]

How? The joke is that he's making you think that you're one of the few people that can't see it.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

It's so good, it's killing us several boards away

Thanks for the info.

I kind of get it now I guess. Just not really impressed with it

 

[No Fun Shogun]

No, I just blew into my conch shell and they all assembled.

I just learned what that symbol meant though. So I actually thought that the design of that icon was impressing everyone. Didn't fool me in that sense.

 

[Little Psycho]

No, I just blew my conch shell and they all assembled.

Like Ron Burgundy?

 

[DocWest]

Anybody ever tried this? I kind of want to, but I'm afraid I won't know how to get my computer back.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Like Ron Burgundy?

No, nothing like that. Not sure how you could possibly make that connection.

One of my favorite jokes from my old college humor magazine:

Did you check your trash can?

"Sir, Click on My Computer"
"Your computer??? How can I click on your computer???"

God I don't miss tech support.
