If the media didn't give this so-called "art" the time of day
then these narcissists would go away. Better still, they
might get real jobs and actually benefit mankind. That
would be a helluva lot more novel than their lame "creations'.

Hey, this gave me an idea.

I'm going to do a dsiplay called "the secret life of artists" made out of gingerbread men that bugger dogs and cats and wank off to internet gay porn all day long and fantasize about killing all the Jews.

Whadda ya think?

OK, my second thought after seeing the picture was
"This means I'm going to hell, right?"

My first reaction was an involuntary snort
and my FIRST thought was
"OK, actually that IS funny....".

I don't know what was in the artist's mind,
but I think the "piece" makes fun of the folks prone to Nazi nonsence....

It is funny. It's just a shame that the creator (I won't call him an artist because, lets face it, he's more of a baker really) decided to get all pretentious about it with his shtick about "provoking thought". IF he'd simply said "WEll, it seemed like a bit of a laugh" when asked, it would have been tolerable.

I have an idea, though. I'm going to make a cityscape out of chocolate, with a lead statuette of Ray Nagin standing in its centre, put it in a large industrial oven and film the result. I'll call it "Chocolate City Destroyed By Hot Air".

Where is the Cookie Monster when you need him?

If I want funny send ups of Nazis, then I will watch the Blues Brothers and The Producers.

I don't think I'm as offended by this as some others are. It has a certain "Far Side" cartoon quality to it.

monkeys flinging poop at the zoo have created far better art than what the left believes to be cool. it's all in the eyes of the beholder for sure.

hey - why'd i get a hat tip?

A gentleman always tips his hat to a lady.

nanc, you sent me the link to the Iranian cartoon contest.

that's right! i remembered to forget that...oh boo...

Man, now I have to boycott gingerbread man cookies. They're Nazis.

I'm with V the K on this. It does seem to have a 'Far Side' quality to it.

then let's pluck all their little eyes out and chew their little arms off and throw them on the grill!!!!!!!!!! after we starve them to stale.

Yeah, it does actually seem kind of funny. I don't know if it's really meant to be offensive or just off-the-wall. Sort of reminds me of the rabbit from "Monty Python and the Holy Grail", supposed to be benign, but watchout! Or Bart Simpson saying he wants to come back to life as a butterfly, supposedly so he can burn down the school: "No one ever suspects...the butterfly!!".

Well at least we won't have gingerbread men rioting in protest. Then schools will have to start teaching class lessons on what it's like to be a gingerbread person, and forced studies on diversity among the gingerbread people and how the Nazi stereotypes inflict pain on them, and so it's our fault the gingerbread folk kill Jews.
