They took my ad almost word for word and took my Garfield picture too... notice the grease stains on his belly. I emailed the seller with this...

You got $12.50 for it, good going

BTW on the copycats ads, first one, WHAT THE heck IS A DISFUNCTIONING CAMERA????????



I hope their advert stays at 90 cents, uniqueness carries a $12 premium!!

a 3 yr old running around giving the middle finger, eh? well apparently he/she had seen it somewhere else before (mommy) considering in the article they say garfield was being "bad"


there is nothing wrong with the one finger wave.

Typical american media blowing everything out of proportion, just like they did recently with the "Rogue Orca" that "attacked it's trainer" causing a "frightening ordeal for everyone". Even though it was just misbehaving and the trainer didn't panic and wasn't hurt. The trainer was calm and the whale picked up on that and calmed down too. The audience thought it was part of the act for most of it. FEAR! TERROR! OMG NOTHING IS SAFE! GRR!!

Next thing you know they'll do a huge investigation on the Jolly Green Giant because some dumb 3 year old decides to stick a pea up their nose and it gets stuck. Lawsuits ensue.

My son did that before. But he's not dumb.

lol, well, you know what I meant. Most people wouldn't think it's newsworthy let alone lawsuit and criminal investigation worthy. But if the media hypes it enough, that's where it ends up.
