Cool Collection of Posters

Post by bedraggled »

How about a new thread "A collection of cool posters?"  Of course, this would be a secondary thread to "A Cool Collection of PP Charts."

There was that poster from "Bomb Agraba" on Americans and now the new one on "We're Screwed, 2016."

My favorite may be the poster of a galaxy[?] suggesting someone is a no chance loser or entirely insignificant.  And wasn't that followed by the one concerning running last in a race, trailing everyone?

Such a "stickied"  thread would encourage us all to find some great stuff out there.

Are you talking about memes with captions? Where is the We're Screwed 2016 one?

Dualstow,

"We're Screwed, 2016" is in "Trump would default on US Treasuries," page 1, bottom.

Hope that helps.

Got it - http://gyroscopicinvesting.com/forum/bo ... #msg148450
thank you, sir.

Now I see that you really do mean posters, not memes.

My submission, though I've probably posted something similar before, or at least had it as my avatar.

I typed "bomb Agrabah" into google images. Funny!
Also, here's an article in the Washington Post, which I guess led to the poster image in this forum (although I missed that, too).
A recent Public Policy Polling survey found that 30% of Republicans and 19% of Democrats say they support “bombing Agrabah” – the fictional nation portrayed in the Disney movie Aladdin.

Does anyone know where that "galaxy" poster is? The one celebrating personal insignificance and that there is little, if any, cognizance of the fact.

And do the Scrooge McDuck posters belong here?

Thanks.

Thanks, MG.

There is more posted. And how about that poster where the runner is last in the marathon (of life)?

I'm worried jafs may have a brain aneurism over that one!
