Speaking of the "Moran Guy"..... (warning - HUGE pic)
I've seen some dumbass FReeper-types attempt to debunk the pic by saying that it's been Photoshopped. Here's a high res alternate Moran-shot that proves that the guy is actually a Moran.

6. Beer guts come in a wide variety of configurations
I used to live in Milwaukee, so I have seen a lot of them.

3. Well, then it was photoshopped!
But not in a way that changes the meaning. In the pic I saw on the right-hand side there is a woman standing halfway off camera next to him, holding a sign (unreadable).

5. Check out the mullet on the left!
I sense that mullets are very common at pro-Boosh rallies.

7. I zoomed in to 1600% in photoshop
That's either the single most seamless Photoshop I've ever seen, by a long shot, or it's genuine.

I'm putting my money on genuine.

9. Yep. Some a-hole from another site (which shall not be named)...
Tried his hand at being a PS expert and posted numerous reasons why the other Moran pic was obviously altered.

I forget the idiot's name, but maybe one of the <insert jackass site> lurkers can alert the poor dumb bastard to this thread.

Edited on Wed May-26-04 06:52 PM by Blue-Jay
Sorry, I'm just busting your balls. I know a typo when I see one.

17. I have no idea what you're talking about.
I would never, I assure you, edit my posts to correct either grammar or spelling. :evilgrin:

At least I'm not in public waving a sign accusing others of bring "morans." *sigh* Another symptom of our failing public skools.

12. This picture is hardly photoshopped....it was taken during
a counter protest of a March 2003 antiwar protest at the Boeing Plant in St Charles County Missouri. This guy is definitely representative of many in Republican St Charles, Missouri. The St Charles County Council recently passed an ordinance outlawing gay marriage and stated that a marriage is between a man and a woman.

20. They apparently didn't outlaw marriage between first cousins
And all the St. Charles Countians who were married to sheep are pretty pissed off right now!

14. Hysterical site!
Note to self: When making a protest sign, remember to first consult a dickshunerry.
