The posters they're parodying are just as ridiculous.

"The only way to discover the limits of the possible... Is to go beyond them into the realm of the impossible," was the last thought to go through Bob's head before he was cut to ribbons.

Please, more.

In grade school, every time I was sent to the principal's office, I had to sit and stare at a picture of a runner climbing a tall hill at sunset. "The race goes not to the swift," it said, "but to those who keep on running."

Well, I'm still running.

And I still hate those f*in motivational posters.

It’s good to see the Flaming Carrot make a cameo. I hadn’t thought about that particular crime fighter for many a year.

The real motivational poster is actually funnier.

If A Pretty Poster And A Cute Saying Are All It Takes To Motivate You, You Probably Have A Very Easy Job. The Kind Robots Will Be Doing Soon.

ThinkGeek has a bunch of the anti-motivational posters.

If I ever work in an office one these will be on my wall.

Aw, man, what was that comic posted here about a year ago with some dudes setting up a fight between... was it Godzilla and Ralph Nader? Something like that. Anyway, I remember that the best part was the motivational posters in the breakroom in one scene.

They were better than these.

Still, nice post. Would bid again! B++++++++
