This is NOT photoshopped folks! I actually know these two! This picture was taken at a recent “tea bagging” rally in downtown Seattle (you know, for whatever it is those wacky conservatives are mad about now) & these two were a couple of the counter protesters. So awesome!

…Here’s an experiment for you. Draw a picture with solid colors overlapping like this sign. Upload it to photobucket or something, then take THAT picture and analyze it for “shopping.” Enjoy your learning experience. For the love of god learn something about image doctoring before pretending to be an expert. If one more person blames image compression distortion on shopping I’ll eat my foot.
xD I think it’s an epic sign. The man was expecting tea-bagging fun! >8U
Speaking of WTF, do conservatives not pay any attention to pop culture before they decide to try out a new word? I mean seriously, Teabagging? Almost as rich as when they used the Liberty Bell, aka the Monty Pyton Theme to introduce their candidate at a convention.
It’s okay, there is a christian group National Organization for Marriage, or NOM. They decided they were to going to run a campaign to ban gay marriage (you might’ve seen their commercial on the colbert report) and decided it was going to be called 2 million for marriage, or the convenient acronym 2M4M. And they supported the teabagging thing. Put it all together and whaddya got? 2M4M teabag NOM. Oh, isn’t it beautiful!
Ok first of all its not called “tea bagging” it was a tea party and if any of you liberal air heads paid any attention in history class you would get the reference.but seeing as you elected a man who’s only policy is “change” i do not expect much from you in the brains department
Actually “tea bagging” is what some of the folks at Fox have been calling it, unaware that the phrase actually has another, ruder meaning. The comments on this photo are referencing that slip up. The Colbert Report, MSNBC and people all over the internet have been making fun of it, but that does not mean that they are unaware of the Boston Tea Party. I’m not even from the US and I’m aware of it.
I think “Tea Bagging” is a good term for what people like the ones in this photo are doing: Crashing to a tea party with fake, ridiculous signs. As for myself, my sign would read “Don’t Blame Me, I Voted For Bob Barr!”
“I shaved my balls for this” Is a shirt you can purchase from T-shirthell.com. As for the Bring back Crystal pepsi.. thats out of my league!!
And yes this looks photo shopped.. it has to be!!
there is a “sexual position” (ref. kamasutra for this), where u need to put ur balls into, ehh, uhhh, the face of your partner (find that out by yourself)… but u need to shave your balls for that fun, better… so it makes a lot of sence:
TEA BAGGING and BALL SHAVING.
probably needed a really flexible head on an electric razor for that to avoid a ton of cuts… (yes this is a disgusting comment, even though i’m a guy.)
NOT photoshopped. I know the person holding the “shaved my balls” sign. Yes, liberals DO know the historical significance of the Boston Tea Party — but apparently conservative talkshow hosts do NOT know the significance of the pop culture term “tea bagging” — and likely neither did most of the people who were being mocked at their own rally. And THAT is the really funny part. These same clueless conservative folks were perfectly content to have THEIR guy take us from a budget surplus to a record deficit — on a war against a country (Iraq) whose threat to the US was COMPLETELY fabricated. Now this “crazy” liberal wants to spend money on domestic programs to help the country out of a recession (and cut taxes for most Americans by removing loopholes for the wealthy) and they have to go “tea bagging.” Hahaha!!! Go tea baggers, go!
Is this just a bit ‘shopped?
It’s not photoshoped, but I think everyone needs a good ball shaving before a protest.
congratulations buddy. congratulations.
I think it’s an Austin Powers reference. o.O
Maybe…but it is relatively famous slogan for t-shirts…
http://www.tshirthell.com/funny-shirts/i-shaved-my-balls-for-this/
like that
The “I want my country back” sign is interesting too. Silly king, you gave your country for that horse…
Crystal Pepsi?!? I would shave my balls for that too.. o_0
oh shit son! i loved crystal pepsi. mmm invisible cola.
It’s not photoshopped, this is a joke placard, as they are at one of last week’s “tea party” protests.
It’s actually awesome.
Is that the Chewbaca Defense applied to a protest?
@yorktronic
in that case, this is a pretty epic win!
i love it!

I would agree that it’s shopped…there’s a little too much noise on the white parts around the lettering in the sign
So what you’re saying is that you can tell by some of the pixels and seeing quite a few shops in your time?
I dunno, seems pretty normal for Seattle. I would vote not shopped. I live in Seattle, I am sad I didn’t head downtown for the protest.
oh yes bring back crystal pepsi!!

Shaved balls + crystal Pepsi = Crystal balls or shaved Pepsi?

I bet libby and alison has “steeped” some “teabags” in their time!
I shaved my balls is in reference to teabagging somebody, ala Halo

I think id’s have to go with Bob on this one.
‘Cept I voted for Bob Ross.
The tree’s need to be happy again.

@jake
Yes, there really is nothing like a shorn scrotum, it’s breathtaking. I suggest you try it.
mos def downtown seattle, 4th & pine. gotta love my city. yeah this photo actually makes sense… everything except the pepsi thing.

TEABAGGERS RULE!
Shaved or not.
Waxing lasts longer.
Wtf….
Although I do agree- Bring back Crystal Pepsi… it was awesome. Though these days I doubt my caffeine stream could handle being interrupted.
he thought there was gonna be a real tea baggin going on and no-one like those little hairs in their teeth, so he was being considerate
