The point of Demotivational Posters is to parody those motivational posters that you might see in your office. It works if you actually parody it, like this guy:

And if you want to see just how bad this trend has become, just check out this comic from My Apokalips:

Pretty funny right? Now, check out what this assclown did to it:

2) It’s not funny.
3) It ruins the joke.

I hate them. And it’s absolutely terrible when people combine two unfunny things, like LOLCats and these posters:

Is there a way we can stop this? Chuck Norris jokes (and all further incarnations, technically, they started out as Vin Diesel jokes) need to go as well, especially the new Sue Sylvester jokes going around. The words “win”, “fail”, and “epic” must be also used in moderation, because I’m tired of everything I see online being described with three fucking words, when only one of them is actually an adjective.

But alas, I don’t know what I’m doing here. I can’t stop the Internet. It’s just weird to me how a place can be both a beacon, and a desolate wasteland, for creativity.
