Thread: Some humor to lighten things up

    Smile Some humor to lighten things up

    http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2016...t-girls-photo/

    This is a news story that features some guy really good at Photoshop who apparently gets asked to not just do minor tweaks to personal photos, but to literally re-create people's looks. What a bizarre world we live in. What starts out as a sweet story, turns into something you'll bust out laughing as you scroll down and read more. You MUST go to the link to see the photoshopped pics. They are pretty darn funny!

    A graphic designer with a sarcastic sense of humor and an obvious disdain for the modern cult of narcissism is being praised for the time he decided to not do his job.

    James Fridman, whose satirical Photoshop skills have earned him hundreds of thousands of followers on Twitter, set the jokes aside after a young woman suffering from an eating disorder submitted a photo for editing.

    "Hey James I was wondering if you could maybe make me look pretty in this picture I don't have any self confidence and am struggling with an eating disorder so just wanted something to aspire to be and look like, just a beautiful version of myself," read a message the woman included with her photo.

    After reading the request, Fridman replied, "Nothing and no one could make you prettier than you already are. Don't be influenced by the wrong standards. Don't put looks before your health. Get well."

    I wanted people to see "bushy eyebrows" among other things. That one gave me a good chuckle. Dude is funny. Went to the Facebook and those are good, too.

    Yep, I went to the link but got ticked off cuz TheBlaze always makes my browser freeze.

    I like his sense of humor AND the fact that he knows when to draw the line and even encourage rather than tear down.

    My favorite was the one where he was asked to "take the girl out" of the picture. I laughed out loud at that one. The Rob Kardashian one was funny too.
