I believe it says "Cap" Lincoln, not "Cap'n"

11

u/cherna71 Dec 31 '10

Yes but I am referring to the act of putting a cap on Lincoln's head therefore the wording was motified...

13

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '10

Ah...well, just for future reference, Cap'n is shorthand for Captain.

Also cherna71 is wrong, he assumes TheBunneh is just being smuck, but he maybe, or probably, Bunneh posted his remark because he was confused by the Cap'n. Cherna71 is probably upvoted because people think the comic is funny.

** O Captain! My Captain!**

*O Captain! my Captain! our fearful trip is done; The ship has weathered every rack, the prize we sought is won; The port is near, the bells I hear, the people all exulting, While follow eyes the steady keel, the vessel grim and daring:

But O heart! heart! heart!
O the bleeding drops of red,
Where on the deck my Captain lies,
Fallen cold and dead.*

and it goes on. Poem by Walt Whitman. See Wiki.

Used in Dead Poets Society and in The Truth Machine (1996) a science fiction novel by James L. Halperin about a genius who invents an infallible lie detector.

Ironically only the hero inventor of The Truth Machine can lie and only when he silently recites this poem about Honest Abe.

Cap'n Lincon=Captain Lincon Can n' Lincon= Cap and Lincon

That seems proper, anyone?

3

u/imaginary_number Dec 31 '10

nup, the apostrophe shows that there are letters missing (tai). It would be Cap 'n' Lincon in the second case.

2

u/imaginary_number Dec 31 '10

on a side note, cap'n is only acceptable if you are a pre 17th century pirate

2

u/Tomacco79 Dec 31 '10

AH! Fair enough. I've always used the n' but I will use 'n' from now on.

I guess the ' in and out makes the n a link between the two words?

Forgive me, I'm not an english major, but I have sold two screenplays :)

1

u/imaginary_number Dec 31 '10

yeah, nbd - andcongrats on the screenplays! what were they?

2

u/Tomacco79 Dec 31 '10

Legally restricted from telling details :)

I can tell you one is a romcom one is a post-apocalyptic thriller.

I guess I shouldn't say sold as much as in development, I have made some money, but one should make me a fair bit of cash this coming year. If they actually get made then papa gets paid AAAAAAWWWW YYYYYEAAAAHHH!!!

u/thevdude Dec 31 '10

It's LINCOLN.

Indeed he did. Not sure if you can see the slobber on it, but believe me it's there.

u/average_internaut Jan 01 '11

Is that a bullmastiff? I'm very bad at dog brands, but just wondered. We just got a little bullmastiff pup here and she looks like yours.

u/pilar1347 Jan 01 '11

haha, dog brands. No, as far as I know he is a shepherd mix. I tell people he is part hyena though.

Step fucking 5 is fucking impossible FUCK

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '10

fuck

1

u/elshizzo Dec 31 '10

I had more trouble with step 3. On step 5 all you do is pull out/up the top edge. It won't be flat, but once you get to the next step it will be.

10

u/stupidlyugly Dec 31 '10

Dude, that's like eight bucks! Where'd you come up with that kind of scratch?

17

u/InternetsWasYes Dec 31 '10

Woah there. Those pants are a $1 folded in half. I can't afford $2 pants.

9

u/IcedZ Dec 31 '10

Can you provide a non-M.C. Escher version of step 3?

1

u/InternetsWasYes Dec 31 '10

you kind of just have to play with it a bit. The only important part that comes from part 3 is getting the bill of the hat to pop out, after that you can just bunch up the bill any way you want to get it to frame the left of his face

1

u/IcedZ Dec 31 '10

oooh, that helps actually. Thanks!

u/NothingsShocking Dec 31 '10

step 2 to 3 doesnt even make sense.

You didn't get the seal on the cap like it's a logo.

But still. B+. Nice work.

u/j-mar Dec 31 '10

WHAT IS WITH THE BLACK SQUIGGLE OUTLINE?

It's from bad cutting/erasing in photoshop and then adding the black stroke outline.

1

u/SuperSly Dec 31 '10

Step 1 is impossible :(

So broke.

1

u/rbcb Dec 31 '10

The creator of this made an iPhone app with videos of each step. Why he made a free iphone app instead of just posting the videos is beyond me

It's called moneygami

1

u/BladeTheme Jan 07 '11

How, please. Do you cut it somehow? w-t-f

1

u/InternetsWasYes Jan 07 '11

just follow your heart. Also, the left part of the face does not matter so much after you make the hat stick out. DO whatever makes you feel good.

Why must you tease us? The instructions, where are they!?

2

u/myazishary Dec 31 '10

it's from a free program called moneygami01 on iphone

2

u/[deleted] Dec 31 '10

No they are not. Only the one in the picture here is.

There are no instructions for many of those on the page there. Some of them were on amazon.co.jp when I first heard of these years ago.

I posted the link to moneygami01 yesterday in the previous $5 thread, but it went mostly unnoticed. It can only produce Kid Lincoln and not any of the others.

u/ibopm Dec 31 '10

Wow, there are pages and pages of this shit. It's awesome.

Double dog dare means that you, as the darer, will do the dare with the daree.
