If you like the London Olympics logo, you'll love the Brazilian Institute for Oriental Studies logo.

Oh, dear....

??!! Logo, My Ass. No, Really.
Posted by Carollani on June 8 at 10:17 AM

Yesterday Bradley Steinbacher slogged about the seizure-inducing Olympic logo, but oddee.com had a different take on it. Apparently some people think the new Olympic logo looks like Lisa Simpson giving head.



Hmm. Kind of a stretch,

-snip-
Have a look at some of the images people think best represent their businesses.

1. That's not real, is it? I mean, it can't freakin' be...

:spray: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

6. There is some debate about that

Plenty of websites link to that picture above in one form or another, but only one site in a Google search claimed to have found the original web page, which is now an 'under construction' one.

http://www.cfh.ufsc.br/~oriente/

I put the URL into Google to see if it was cached, but it wasn't.

26. According to the wayback machine

It went under construction between April 14 and May 7, 2006. http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.cfh.ufsc.br/~oriente/

Shame they don't usually archive images, but the size is about right.

9. Real or not, it's hilarious.

[Radio_Lady]

35. London logo for 2012? I think it's jagged-looking and ridiculous!

[gravity]

2. lol

:spray:

:rofl:

That's the funniest thing I've seen in a while. Is that for real?

[uppityperson]

3. Too funny. What were they thinking?

Someone in your link give this link also, Most Unfortunate Logos ever

4. Another one

[krispos42]

11. So is that a penis or a doctor's buttcrack?

I don't want to make a guess at the wire.

[Pirate Smile]

17. I think it was meant to be a mouse.

[Berry Cool]

32. Either that, or a sperm with a butt-crack. n/t

[Radio_Lady]

36. Those are hysterical... thanks for posting...

[Gregorian]

5. What! All I see is the house of the rising bum.

I saw that last week. Until now I thought it was a joke. Wrong!

[krispos42]

7. Oh! It's an asian-style roof in front of a Japanese sun

My mind is in the gutter too much.

[uppityperson]

8. Thank you, I kept getting stuck at the cheeks. Never was good at seeing 1 things.

SIncerely, thank you.

[krispos42]

10. Oh, good, it's not just me then

I thought it was a joke logo at first.

[Bucky]

12. Well, you can't say they're not promoting inter-cultural exchange!

Indeed, it looks like they're celebrating a glorious window through which this exchange can take place.

[Quixote1818]

13. Is that for real???

:wow:

38. Graphic Design Forum would appreciate a copy of that animation!

It's hysterical!

[applegrove]

15. That is so unfortunate. LOL!

[Pirate Smile]

16. kick

[WiseButAngrySara]

18. This made me laugh so hard my dog is worried about my

sanity! Good grief! They are aiming for esoteric, yin/yang and end up with cartoonish oral/anal? And if the temple is yellow, why the face/buttock/ whatever, in red? It is as ghastly as the London Olympics logo.

What is this? Are people just generating computer images? Or is this a new art trend in absurdity?

[Berry Cool]

33. The sad thing is, they could have avoided the whole thing

just by giving the pagoda a layer or two of "shingles."

[WiseButAngrySara]

34. This is true! Once I 'figured out the figures' it was so

obvious. Make it look like a temple, or make the sun look like the sun. They were overkilling the few stokes oriental style at their detriment!

[LostInAnomie]

19. Is it just me...

... or does that look like someone cramming something phallic up their ass?

[WiseButAngrySara]

22. It's not just you! Or a large finger into a cartoon mouth! ....n/t

[LisaL]

20. OMG.

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[jollyreaper2112]

21. I know, you can't even tell what it's supposed to be

It's supposed to be a japanese-style roof set against the rising sun, looking very oriental. But yes, it looks like someone with a red ass getting sodomized.

[LisaL]

23. I can't believe that whoever came up with that logo did not see

that.
:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[jollyreaper2112]

24. one of the worst logos but I've seen worse

It all gets back to "what were they thinking?" I don't think that it takes a particularly dirty mind to see what's wrong here. So, what were they thinking?!?!

[uppityperson]

27. Hoax ad.

[Hissyspit]

30. Oh my god... the fake Breyer's ad!

:rofl:

[LisaL]

29. I think whoever came up with that last one could easily get

arrested.
:wtf:

[jollyreaper2112]

25. poor choice of font and kerning

[hootinholler]

28. OMG! That's FLICKS, right?

:rofl:

-Hoot

[WolverineDG]

39. I would so have a car accident

if I saw that sign while driving by in my car.

:rofl:

[jollyreaper2112]

31. another bad one

This is a REAL product, not a fake. This is the new Super Soaker, the Oozinator. Fires goo along with the water!

The original commercial

Snide crack made at it by a web comic



The Lickable ad seems tame in comparison.

[derby378]

37. Hurts, don't it?

:rofl:
