A black-and-white photo of a person mid-air in a Superman-style body suspension pose, supported by multiple hooks in their back and legs, smiling joyfully toward the camera. They are suspended horizontally in a large indoor space with high ceilings and visible rigging. A group of onlookers—some seated, some standing—watch with expressions of admiration, amusement, and support. The atmosphere is lively and communal, capturing a moment of shared experience and transformation.

The Spaghetti Monster is a False Prophet


I try to keep abreast of trends and memes and running jokes, and generally I feel like I do a pretty good job of picking up on references and whatnot. But sometimes … sometimes I feel like I’m a long, long way from being in on the joke. This is one of those times.

    But why shoes?!
    A sausage doesn’t have legs (or hair and a bow tie either I suppose), but come on! It doesn’t have legs.

    I really hate it when people call other people’s tattoos ‘embarrassing.’

    Really.

    YOU don’t have to live with it, so what the hell are you embarrassed about?

    I think it’s cute. And I like the shoes. AND I agree with #3 about the text. 🙂
