Manifisto posted:were there no images of leonardo dicaprio's ghost? is he still down there drawing french ghosts in their altogether? No ghosts there under 23, so he had to move on. It was a hard decision but he had to stay true to his slimy traits even as a ghost.

. . . whereas with this one, the graininess of the image actually lends it a haunted quality even without the story behind it. |

this is, not gonna lie, a perfect example of creepiness. I am imagining coming across that in some abandoned house in the woods, and getting a very clear sense that I should not under any circumstances pick it up . . . any backstory, or did you just like the photo? |

okay, THE SCORES! this one was hard to judge. zero points - nobody gets zero points this time around. one and two points - nobody gets one or two points. they were all good submissions! three points - Saoshyant (terrifying! haunted though?), your friend sk (hilarious image, but I am more intrigued than spooked), Charles Bukowski (the coffin certainly is puzzling but I do not feel haunted), viginti septem (love the story) four points - Dumb Sex-Parrot (cool intriguing image), Stoner Sloth (nice bit of history), biosterous (just a great photo), Quadramind (lots of atmosphere but also nicely subtle), Tiny Myers (call david cronenberg!) five points - Rarity (most ghosts in her image, also great image location), barnold (extra points for the byob connection), Finger Prince (awesome lady, clearly if not haunted herself is v familiar with da spooks)

 - - - -NEW TASK NEW TASK NEW TASK - - - - Task 2 Helloooooooooooo my rock'n'roll fans! It's me, your official for everything related to rock, rolling rocks and those who wish to rock with us! Starting now, you have two hours (i.e. until 3pm eastern time) to become a "rock star" by finding and painting or otherwise decorating your very own rock. Do you want to follow a certain theme? If you do, and I like it, I might be generous with the points! The choice and the creativity is yours, it is your special rock and it is your duty to design it the way it feels right for you and you alone! Well, except for the fact that I'm going to judge your rock based on what I find the best and whatever I like, which might follow certain "logical rules" but it might not! So the simple task is find, then paint decorate and/or design, a rock in a way that pleases you, while I get to judge it. Makes sense, right? Post one or more photos of your decorated rock in this thread by 3pm. Around that time, there may be a little follow-up task for you and your beloved rock to see how far we can take this. More specific details will be posted ITT at that time! Meanwhile, your time starts . . . now! Goons Are Gifts fucked around with this message at 19:14 on Feb 22, 2023 |

Manifisto posted:agreed, you have about 300% more ghosts in your image than anyone else! objection! those aren't real ghosts which, as we all know, don't show up on camera - hence there were millions of ghosts in my image, the spooky bit is you can't see them! |

OFFICIAL SUBMISSION alright now it took me awhile to find this one mate, and as you'll clearly see i've gone to a lot of trouble to take just the perfect photo of it to really capture the special qualities of it. it was hard work to get the lightning effect just right to decorate it but i think the results speak for themselves

Manifisto posted:amazing how much the hull looks like a gigantic whale, but it's the submersible that really makes the image by highlighting the scale. were there no images of leonardo dicaprio's ghost? is he still down there drawing french ghosts in their altogether? his ghost is hiding, because when he died so did his confidence and screen presence. a haunted shell of a ghost, cannot bear to have his likeness captured any more
