Oh... thanks.

It was a relatively new post that didn't seem to be linked from many places yet, and the photos were new-to-me, so it didn't occur to me that they might have just swiped/recycled photos from previously linked sources. :(

These seem like examples of how to make pictures a hell of lot more amusing. Hadn't seen the previous post, but the woman smiling up into the camera with a turd in the terlet lurking behind -- that's just beautiful. It's like Aesop's gig, somehow.

I don't know how a dildo next to a smiling woman in bed could possibly be construed as "ruining" a picture. Unless she intended to send it to her conservative parents in a letter asking for more college money or something.

three or four of those pictures haven't been ruined, they have been enhanced. what might otherwise have been nothing more than a forgettable snapshot has been elevated to something with word-of-mouth value.
