Have you ever wondered what would happen if a sick pair of very immature technically inclined freaks got a hold of the button maker commonly used to produce blog buttons? Instead of advertising their favorite syndication technology, they'd probably produce a bunch of twisted, nasty, mostly politically incorrect blog buttons, wouldn't they?
Yeah. And they'd probably be kind of funny too.
Well, wonder no longer. It has finally happened.
If you're easily offended or not fond of seeing technology twisted into such things, I'd stop reading now... Otherwise you just might find something to laugh at.
See? I told you so. :-)
Hint: if you read them across, they're kinda like some sick blog button magnet poetry. Or a weird advertisement generated from mad libs. Judge for yourself.
On the other hand, it has a nice George Carlin quality to it...

the rss2 full-post feed cuts off before the images. i can understand stripping certain tags from the feed, but shouldn't the text after the images be included?
Ray, the buttons are part of the "extended entry" which people have to click to see. I don't use extended entries often, but in a case like this it seemed wisest.
You never know when your grandmother will stumble across your RSS feed. :-)
What *really* offends me is that you didn't even bother using the cool features of the button generator, like changing the colors and the various pixel placements....
:-)
Heh.
That would have added way too many things to tweak.
Half the fun was trying to come up with stuff that fit in the standard mold. Changing the parameters would be cheating.
Err, I mean, that's what those freaks told me. :-)
Heh, I think someone is mighty pissed off :)

Into /.ing now, are we?
mmk:
Uh, no.
I hosted all the buttons on my site. Check the source. :-)
the button site is frequently bandwidth-deficient. jeremy probably just "jerminated" the site with the single link :-)
what about a "Z | powered" button?
Heh.
"jerminated" makes me think of a PBS special with bees flying form flower to flower doing their thing.
I give it < two years till Jeremy starts creating a /. effect to whatever he links to ray :)
In between this and some of your blogmarks, I wonder what the hell got into you last night. :P
Ah, don't worry. It usually works itself out after a day or so. :-)
mike, sometimes you should do things just because it's fun.. not because it's prudent or time-worthy.
I need a button generator. I'd like to see where these buttons take you.
Thanks for your free button maker. Now I have my own Aid Renegade button. (I need to get out more....)
