What? I see the "poorly made" (which isn't a strike against it), but I fail to see the "hilarious". More odd than funny. Doesn't even rate a meh. Against. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 04:24, 16 June 2008 (UTC)

That does not look anything like a borg. This looks like a borg. Silver clothes and weird green eye-beam do not make a borg, in my opinion. That aside, the silver clothes and the green eye-beam are pretty ugly. They hurt my eyes too look at — as does his left arm. And they don't make me laugh. -- TheZombiebaron 17:00, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Against. The fact that a famed occultist is in a boat in a plate full of porridge may be a nice little bit of photo-manipulation wizardry (although, the mixed mediums do tear at the edges of the imagined reality), but it doesn't really make me laugh. I had more of a "Oh. That's a nice idea." style reaction. -- TheZombiebaron 16:03, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Per ZB It's nice, but not all that funny. Also the mixed pictures are pretty noticeable. -RAHB 19:40, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

I don't get it and it frightens me. But for some constructive criticism, the upper left side of her lip (my left, not her left), there's a part where it doesn't connect up right at all. I don't know if that was intentional, but it's very inconsistent with the rest of the image. -RAHB 02:27, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Against; not only is it extremely textbased (yeah, I have this thing about that), but also, the caption "Beeper that always interrupts me watch Deal Or No Deal" should read "Beeper that always interrupts me while I'm watching Deal Or No Deal" (or some similar grammatically correct capation). On a similar note, the title "How Dishwashers Work" is entirely inaccurate - this is a schematic which outline the parts of a dishwasher, and in no way details how they all function together to make dishes clean. But hey, maybe the title was on purpose. -- TheZombiebaron 01:44, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
While I didn't expect to please you, I did leave the title as How Dishwashers Work to be sarcastic. As for the grammatical error, I completely missed it. Thanks for catching it, I'll be sure to fix it tomorrow. ~MinitrueSirSysRq!Talk!Sex!=/GUN • WotM • RotM • AotM • VFH • SK • PEEING • HP • BFF @ 01:50 Jun 7
In addition to what ZB said, the labelings aren't really all that funny. Comments like "something" and "something else" and "yellow tube" do not scream "FEATURE ME! I'M COMEDIC GENIUS!" Anybody could take a picture of anything and label it "this thing is here, this is something, this doesn't do anything" and it's been done so often before that if I were going to vote for any image similar to this, it would be one made a long long time ago, and not this one in particular. -RAHB 03:17, 7 June 2008 (UTC)
Hard to read The picture is hard to read, and will probably be harder if it is blown up , considering that the image isnt a vector file.--Nytrospawn 17:56, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
Against. The "Deal or No Deal" thing and "under the door" are hilarious, but the rest of them aren't very funny. Also, it's very hard to read. In other words: the same reasons as everyone else. « Arotenbe « aka arotenbe, AaronR, etc. « Now what did I do? « 02:14, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Against. Sorry, I did actually find the image humorous, but after reading the votes of everybody else I'm convinced that this just shouldn't be put on the front page. Something in my gut tells me so. Maybe heartburn. Unsolicited conversation Extravagant beauty PEEING 03:49, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Weak against While the chop is very well done, that stem...thing, whatever it's called, the green bit, just isn't working for me. If you could find a way to implement that a little cleaner into the design, I'd be a for, even though I have no idea what the concept is really supposed to be. -RAHB 23:56, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
Like RAHB said, the main body of the pineapple is a very nice piece of work. However, its just not making me laugh. Perhaps you could donate it to a fruity wiki in search of a logo, or use it in a fruity reskin. Basically, what I'm saying, is that its a pretty good looking image (it could benefit, as RAHB said, from making the stem-thing more congruent with the overall style), but its just not what I envision as a feature image. -- TheZombiebaron 00:51, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
Against. Pineapples have the stem/leafy bit growing out of the top, not the center. This looks more like a pineapple inside an egg. I'm sure you agree that's ridiculous. Even if it was done real pineappley, it wouldn't be all that funny. SirModusoperandiBoinc! 11:51, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

The shading is way off. Try using the crop tool. It will help. -- TheZombiebaron 15:18, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
Against. It's real. So it's not a chop - strike one. You've cut the letters out of a Toblerone box or two, and hacked some about really badly to look vaguely like different letters, then made a not particularly amusing message - strike 2. Text-based image - strike 3. Still, glad it passed the time while you were in school. --UU - natter15:46, Jul 7

Against. Sorry, but it's not that well done, is it? The colours don't match for a start, and it looks like the "J" is drawn on. Is this an MS paint job? Whatever, it's also a text-based joke, and not a brilliant one at that. Now will someone do the obligatory bad "tastes funny" gag please? Or did I just do that as well? --UU - natter17:58, Jul 8

Against While I don't mind a bit of injoke now and then, this is far too injokey to put on the main page. People simply won't get it. And while it only takes about three minutes in uncyc IRC to find out who Olipro is, no previous experience could possibly prepare one for this. -RAHB 11:00, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
Also, those dildos have a little bit of white stuff on them (it's hardly noticeable in the thumb, I just wanted to make that joke). -RAHB 11:02, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
Against. Sorry. Same as above... MrN 15:48, Jul 13
Against, if we're talking Olipro-inspired-movie-posters, I much prefer this one. But, that being said, I would never vote for it on VFP. Because its an injoke. And its vanity. -- TheZombiebaron 17:59, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
Against. In-joke and vanity. Also, I've been on IRC, like, five or six whole times in the last year, sometimes for minutes and still haven't encountered this "Olipro". I'm inclined to believe there's some sort of Keyser Soze-style spook story going on here. --UU - natter12:16, Jul 14

That weird yellow fuzzy stuff at the bottom of the screen hurts my quality sensors, and my funny sensors aren't picking up anything. -- TheZombiebaron 07:07, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
Against. I actually like the idea, but it's so zoomed in, you can't tell what it is at all, which kind of defeats the object - you need to at least be able to recognise what it is for the joke to work at all. --UU - natter09:10, Jul 14
Okay, you want to know? First of all, it's not zoomed in. It's 8-bit pixels. You know, in Super Mario the pixels are huge, but the game is still playable. On a cell phone (which as a far smaller screen) it would be logical (and funny) if the pixels would look huge, rendering the game unplayable. It's because it uses TV-qualified pixels. You get it now, UU? OR in a nutshell: video game console pixels are too big for mobile phones!!! --SirGeneralMinisterG5FIYCUPotM[Y]#21 F@HKUN 10:34, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
I said I like the idea, so I do get it. But let me put it another way - that may be your intention, but it leaves the pic unrecognisable, and without the recognition factor, it looks like a few large pixels on a phone screen, which is not a funny image in and of itself. The caption kinda explains it, I guess, but it still doesn't make the picture funny. Do you get what I mean now? And I don't hate you. The only person I hate stole my bike in 1994. Unless that was you. In which case: bastard. --UU - natter10:56, Jul 14
