Extolling Virtues: The Fark Photoshop Contest.

Few things give me more workplace joy than the occasional glimpse at Fark.com. It’s the best collection of news links from around the web – all done with a humorous twist. Every day they have several Photoshop contests, where site members are given a theme (Photoshop your favorite actor/actress into Star Trek in an effort to save the franchise, What the USA would look like if it had never left the British Empire, etc.) that they have to visualize in the form of an uploaded – and drastically altered – photograph.

There are several recurring popular elements – Christopher Walken, A squirrel with huge testicles, Michael Jackson, George Bush and Michael Moore being standards. Some of the “Farkers” as they call themselves come up with ideas that will have you rolling on the floor. And the prize for winning? Bragging rights among your fellow dorks. Or, “Forks” as I call them. But they’re a sharp bunch who make me giggle every day. Check it out.

    Something awful has some really good ones on their forums as well. Any sort of industrial artwork (think airplane safety card) is a favorite topic. Kudos to the people who keep the Trekky dorks at bay in these things.

    You are, of course, referring to Brukkake. Star Trek VII: The Voyage to Haverill.

    Are you familiar with this site as well? It started with a page that repeats the “you the man now dog” quote from “Finding Forrester.”
