I miss photoshopped masterpieces like this. Before AI slop…
It reminds me a lot of the rage comics area. I wasn’t really a fan of rage comics, but when they took off, people actually made them. They had an idea, they fired up Photoshop and they made a thing and therefore there was some sort of effort put into it. Later on, there were apps, and everyone could just slap together their own rafe comics and flood the market, and 99% was just absolute garbage.
I actually like rage comics (they are still around btw). Having them be accessible isn’t a bad thing. If they aren’t good it is because the maker wasn’t particularly good. Not that they were accessible.
Back in the day I loved seeing what people would do on that other site, /r/photoshopbattles. Lots of good shops from there rattling around in my memes folder.
It was a trend for a while. There were a couple blogs I can’t even remember the name of at this point that did great PS work. the sub you mention really only had like 3 or 4 solid people and everyone else using MS paint.

:/ i hate their name.
Is this on lemmy.world? I’m not finding it.
Sorry, it was just wishful thinking. It doesn’t exist yet.
Reminds me of this hot sauce. The actual sensation comes surprisingly close to the image.
Is it good tho?I’ve been looking to expand my hot sauce collection to get more varied flavor and hotter sauces.
It’s ok but iirc they use capsaicin concentrate which just adds artificial heat without flavor. These days I avoid that stuff. The best hot sauces I’ve had were all made from Moruga Scorpion peppers. They pack a lot of heat but it doesn’t hit you as harshly as with other strains. Goes especially well with fruity or smokey spices. My favorite chili pepper by a long shot.
My favorite scorpion sauce is Tobacco’s. Unlike their others, I don’t get a strong overwhelming vinegar sensation from it.
My favorite overall sauce is Melinda’s ghost pepper sauce. I tried their scorpion sauce but it didn’t taste significantly different enough nor feel any hotter, but it was more expensive to get, so I stick with their ghost pepper sauce.
Melinda’s sauces are fantastic. Generally speaking I mostly ditched vinegar bases for fruity sauces, spicy ketchup and chutneys. Oh and a completely different one that I can highly recommend is this one:
Scorpion using Moruga?
Yes. The good ol’ Trinidad and Tobago scorpion.
Tobasco’s hottest sauce, and also Melinda’s, but the heat and difference is more noticeable in the Tobasco sauce.
Also, as much as I love Melinda, it utilizes Hispanic spices, which more limits what I can put it on. However, the Tobasco sauce better pairs with a greater variety of foods.

Something something taco bell
Captain Taco Bell. One 4th meal too many changed him. Into the hero we never knew we didn’t want.
They don’t call it Taco Smell for no reason!? 🤣
Toxic Hell
He’s making record run back from the border.
This is actually what happens if you eat too many beans and corn and then sit near an open flame.
That dude is a fire hazard.
NASA let’s him spark the rockets. He invites everyone over on the weekend for barbecue but no one ever goes.
I think I know why…
Orrrr a fire wizard!?
Well, that too…
I want to see the epic battle between this guy and the EDM mud wizard.
Poblano peppers can cause this type of reaction.
My dude if you are getting angry ass from poblanos…
Jalapeno poppers. Combination of dairy and lactose intolerance with a fast passage of spicy.
Shishito got its name from the sounds we make
Oh you think you can fart loudly? This guy was the regional champion in 2002.
Regional? This guy’s all-conference and headed pro; zero doubts, first rounder.
happy cake day! ^^
I was very intrigued when I first say this pic. Never crossed my mind it was photoshopped.
I thought it was an ad for Ivermectin.
