"We all live here"




If there is one thing I can't stand more than wizards and fairies it is pretentious photo-shopped hipster image macros that have flooded the Internet. With their charming and insightful usually no more 7 word phrases imposed on some pictures that are saved in a folder titled "Art Pics" [gathered from google and Flickr], wreak of pretentious artsier than though garbage. Any monkey that knows the most basic working of the "Hue/Saturation" image adjustment can make this crap. Let me give you a little how to

Step 1) Open up google on your favorite web browser and search for an image of an open field or some Hubble telescope pictures. Anything that looks like it could make for a 2nd wave emo or chill wave album cover.

Step 2) Open the image in any image editing program and just fuck with the hue, contrast, saturation and curves(Photoshop) until it looks hipped out.

Step 3) Download Helvetica or related font and think of something short and sweet and throw that shit on there. A good rule of thumb is to ask yourself if the said phrase could be used in an American Football or any other Kinsella related project.

Step 4) Export and blog that shit :D


Enjoy

Space is a reoccurring theme with these stupid image macros



Fuck you Flickr. Fuck you Tumblr. Fuck all of you
