The .Gif Friday Post No.240 – Pondering Sloth, Godzilla Madhouse & Catbox WTF

[Found here, here and here.]

We modified all three animations. We don’t take credit for resizing, only for looping/reversing/stitching and other modifications, and we link to the sources where we found them.

5 TACKY YEARS! Top 11 Posts for 2012

How’s it feel to be a Green Dot? That’s right, one of those little World Peas is just for you. View the Live Map here. It will display little blinkies that show you who else is here, and it’s anonymous. (We’re at the ass end of the US, just in case you were wondering.)

It’s intuitively obvious to the casual observer that we’re on the verge of taking over the world, so be content in the knowledge that you have assisted with the conquest.

We added an online store and a widget that sort of links to another online store. WorpDress now allows adverts, and they also allow PayPal Tip Jars, so we added that as well. Has any of it paid off? Nah.

We’ve featured the Top Posts for each year since we started in 2007. The numbers indicate this year’s ranking followed by last year’s, and we’ve added a third for all-time ranking (2012/2011/All-Time Rank).  NR indicates Not Ranked.

It scored at No. 6 in 2011, and it’s at No. 7 on the 5-Year popularity ranking.

We plan to keep going with this baboso unless it becomes a chore, but considering all the fun stuff we’ve found just to keep our self-imposed goal of One Post Per Day, it looks like we’ll be around a while. Cheers!

Abhorrence and Misplaced Animosity

Don’t worry. Tacky Raccoons is not going to morph into a political blog, yet we’re not going to completely ignore current events either. If common sense offends you, you won’t like what we’ve posted below the break, and you can click on the image and listen to Peter Tosh instead. Continue reading “Abhorrence and Misplaced Animosity”

The .Gif Friday Post No. 237 – Clam Licker, Nancy’s Trip & The Dance of the Triops

[Top inspired by CDR; 2nd created from this; Triops found here.]

Context is Important

A few years ago we posted that image in puzzlement, and we’re still mystified why a young guy in a skirt and a headband is so pissed at an older man that he needs a piece of furniture to take him down. I mean, look, it’s not a matchup between David and Goliath here. On the other hand, maybe Skirt Boy is playing a prank on the old man by stealing his chair right before grampa is about to sit down, but there’s no need to grab it by the leg.

More likely, the strong young man is going to aid his father and hurl the chair at someone or something out of the frame, like this:

That’s my best guess, Occam’s Razor and all.

The .Gif Friday Post No.236 – Psyche Ducky, ChocoLoLo & “STOP IT!”

[I stole the top one from here and messed with it. 2nd & 3rd found here & here. Tip o’ the Tarboosh to OddMan. ]

NO MESS WITH

Happy 18th Bunkarina!
Nice effin’ shirt.

The .Gif Friday Post No.234 – How To Walk & Victorian Cheesecake

   

Top .gif is actually three .gifs (1-2-3-2-1), modified and animated from this image. Bottom two lenticulations were created from a couple of Victorian era stereoscopic photos that I lifted from here.

[Update: I found the link to the Victorian bimbo pics at Gimcrack. Sorry for the oversight, nursem.]

The .Gif Post No.233 – Wavy Bears, The 10 O’Clock Nose & Thobbing Blob Fish

[1st one from here, the 2nd snot funny and the BlobThrob is mine.]

The .Gif Friday Post No.232 – Kraken Crackin’, Clappin’ & Flappin’

[Top and bottom found here and here. 2nd one was an experiment, animated from this.]

UPDATED 8 JUNE: TR & .Gif fan David sent this. It takes time to put these together, so I didn’t want it to go to waste. Besides, it’s creepy as hell and stacks nicely with the advert below it.
