The Internet has nothing better to do than punk with people's pics these days. No photo is off limits, nobody is sacred, and there are absolutely no boundaries.
Decapitate a baby?
Many of us compare ourselves to the models and celebs we see in advertisements. Big mistake! Photoshop is alive and well in the world and — with a little added color or toning or erasing — it makes everyone look new and improved.
Chews us up and spits us out — that's all the Internet does these days. While sites such as
ManBabies and
Cat Ladies make a big show of decapitating and switching people's heads for fun,
Om Nom Nom Nom hunts down and shows the hungry, abstract monster in every photo. Start looking and you'll notice that he's always lurking.
By now, we all know that the celeb we see on the front cover of a magazine may look a little less polished in reality. Those mags correct every flaw and enhance every curve to create a picture perfect image of an otherwise ordinary person. Celebs get the same kind of touch-up treatment in music vids and movies too.
Who wants a photo album filled with boring, undoctored photos? The Internet has birthed a new breed of family photos, called
ManBabies, that are actually worth looking at — for a good laugh. The
ManBabies website asks readers to sacrifice their fave family snapshots to the web, allow the pics to undergo a few unnecessary adjustments, and let the Internet community laugh at the twisted results once the photos post.
