Demotivational Posters Round 39





It's been entirely too long since I've posted new demotivators. No excuses, just an observation. I feel a little rusty, but it feels good to get some new ones out there. Just a quick note on the Pyromania one: lots of people call themselves pyros, but relatively few people actually are. If you're not sure, try this simple test. If you didn't see what was wrong with the picture in the Pyromania demotivator in the first five seconds or so, you aren't one. If you are a pyro, you saw it and it's going to drive you absolutely nuts for the next month or so.

Have a great day, enjoy the posters, and feel free to leave comments (spammers excluded).

Demotivational Posters Round 38






I'm basically guaranteed to anger somebody with this post. That in and of itself makes me several kinds of happy. Hello, and welcome back to the blog. Sorry it's been so long since I've posted - no excuse.
A couple quick nods to a pair of guys who have noted me or linked to me on their own blogs in the last couple months:
http://web.me.com/wcywhite/W_/Home.html - winton is a talented musician, check him out
http://crujonessociety.com/ - kind of a 'things we think are cool' aggregate - potentially NSFW
Thanks for the publicity, guys!
And a quick plug for one of my friends: http://www.setapartphotography.com/ Check out his mad photo skills!
As always, leave comments. It's nice knowing someone's out there.

Demotivational Posters Round 37





Welcome back to Vertical and Wasting Oxygen. Today's set is themed, much like the Nebraska collaboration a while back. This one was actually fairly difficult to put together, given the number of things which could have been said about Alcoholism, the many ways (both clever and banal) they've been said, and the literally thousands of funny alcohol-related pictures out there to use.
For the record, don't get me wrong. I love alcohol. Great stuff. I just hate drunkenness and alcoholism, and all the crap that goes with them. Balance.
There's another 'normal' set in the works, about halfway done. I hope to have them ready soon, but I might just leave these up here for a little while to make sure they don't get buried by subsequent posts before some of you more infrequent visitors have a chance to see them. As always, enjoy the demotivators, show them to your friends, leave comments, and have a good one!

Demotivational Posters Round 36






Welcome back! I hope you enjoy the latest round of Demotivators. I finally found a way to treat certain subjects which have been on my mind but which would have been entirely too easy to screw up. I think I found a healthy balance on a couple of these. I have this set done and a start on a second set already. Special thanks this round go to my father and my friend Bryan for inspiration and disturbing quotations. Merry Christmas to all, and a Happy New Year (I know, a tad tardy, but this is my closest post to the holidays). Don't forget to leave comments.

Demotivational Posters Round 35






Welcome back to Vertical and Wasting Oxygen. I've changed the site a little since my last set of Demotivators. I got rid of links to people who never post, I added links to some neat blogs I've been following for a while, I added links to webcomics I've been following for a little while to decide whether or not they make the cut for my list, and I've added links to web publication of traditional pen-and-paper comics.
As you can see, I've got another set of Demotivators up! Also, if you look at the post immediately below this one, you'll find I'm running a little contest. See if you can figure out my devious little puzzle.
If you have any webcomics or traditional comics you think I'm missing, leave a comment with the relevant site, and feel free to leave comments relevant to the demotivators as well.
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!
