Happy 5th LJ-iversary to me! Also, this is post #2625. Five years and 2,625 posts. Wow. I need a new hobby.

And now, to celebrate this momentous occasion, here is perhaps the creepiest thing I have ever produced.

HEEEEEEEEEE!!!!! OMG. I was reading down then I SAW IT!

This is awesome.

It's amazing how look it takes to make something look so bad. Or how long it takes to, um, perfect the world's worst fanmix.

this is AWESOME. It's been like, five minutes and I'm still laughing at it. The typos on the CD back are just priceless and so, so Michael. This is amazing. Seriously. I don't think I have ever laughed this hard at fanfic. Great job.

SWEET JESUS LOOK AT THAT THING.

"But then I thought, 'I hate jam. It feels disgusting when it's in your mouth. I hate peanut and jelly.' I do not like it, Sam I Am! And I don't hate Jim and Pam, and I certainly wouldn't want to eat them, so."

Crying laughing over here.

OH MY GOD.

OOOOOOOH MY GOD.

THIS IS THE MOST PERFECT THING I HAVE EVER READ AND/OR SEEN.

IT STILL HAS THE GETTY IMAGES WATERMARK. COMIC SANS. BONUS TRACK. TERRIBLE FILTERED AND LOWER OPACITY BACK COVER. I can barely even talk about the manip itself. I can barely even LOOK at it. That level of such cringe-inducing bad fanart is really hard to fake when you have standards, but you totally pulled it off. It looks like REAL bad fanart, the stuff that you wonder if the person who made it actually has eyes. I... just... You are a genius.

And the story itself! Everyone is so SPOT-ON, it all sounds like it could and WOULD happen on the show. Their voices, their actions, every single one of Michael's quirks, i could see it in my head! How do you DO that?? I DIED laughing at "Subordinate is inquiring about the limit of your attention span, cancel or allow?" Topical pop-culture reference! MICHAEL!

The talking-heads are just... beyond words. (It's really incalculable.) You actually managed to capture the way Michael tells such rambling ( ... )

Wow, that is like the comment equivalent of War and Peace.

BUT I ALMOST FORGOT! DR. SHEPHERD!! Ahahahahahhaaaaaaaaa YES.

daygloparker February 11 2007, 20:05:32 UTC

OMG I'M SO GLAD YOU CAUGHT THE DR. SHEPHERD JOKE. BECAUSE THERE ARE TWO ON TV NOW, AND THEY'RE BOTH NEUROSURGEONS SO OF COURSE HE WOULD BE TREATING PAM'S HYPOTHETICAL CIRRHOSIS OF THE LIVER

You're totally right: MAKING BAD FANART IS HARD when you have, you know, eyes. Although, I will admit, the fact that I don't ACTUALLY KNOW how to do a proper manip helped making it so, er, bad? Fortunately I KNOW that that's a good demonstration of my (lack of) skills and therefore choose not to inflict it upon the world.

YOU HAD TO SAY "INCALCULABLE." You have no idea how much that sends me into fits of giggling. (It's the way! he says it! And his voice! It drops down really quiet because he realizes halfway through the word that he can't actually say it! OHMYGODDDDDDDDDDD HILARITY)

Also, I'm not sure if you can see it or not, but the back cover? Not only is it dimmed and oversaturdated, but I cleverly crosshatched the manip to, you know, GIVE IT SOME ARTSY CLASS.
