What Is Wrong With This Picture?

This image appeared as a pop-up while I was browsing the web.

My question is : Has anyone
in their right mind ever read the first few pages of The New York Times and actually laughed?

He must be a Halliburton shareholder or a sadist, or both

you're damn right.

maybe he's a copyeditor

My first thought was that it would make a brilliant ad for the latest antidepressant:

"Blissnall- So Powerful you will find glee in even the greatest human tragedy"

Brought to you my the new Pharmafia

ha! reminds me somehow of those old 'mother's helper' pill adverts. you know, the ones featuring a 'before' pic of a concerned-looking man with two dirty, crying children hiding behind him, all of them looking sorrowfully at a slightly unkempt woman who is slumped despondently in a messy kitchen, face-to-face with a pile of dirty dishes. A huge pile of laundry is sometimes visible. And then the perky 'after' picture with the clean smiling children eating freshly baked cookies and drinking milk in a spotless kitchen -- their homework spread out neatly on the table, hubby beaming proudly from behind the newspaper in his comfy chair.

But seriously, it does seem to require chemical intervention to read/listen to the news anymore, just to keep from exploding.

chemical intervention sounds like something the publishers need as well.

The missing think-bubble says: "they call this a newspaper?".

I love it! I've seen that ad and wondered the same thing!

Love the dialogue here!

sexi undies also would put a smile on a young mans face, but in regard to the paper I thought the same thing to.
good question!

nice! He probably has a more depressing life than the things you see in the NYT considering the fact that he is reading it in the first place.

the ad excludes the "homeless" from the daily delivery deal?
