I would never want to belong to any club that would have someone like me for a member.

This looks to have spread like wildfire on tumblr. Laughing Squid linked the tumblr image back to the post on their main site that credits the artist and that link traveled with all the reblogs. Both the image and the easy to find source made me happy.
I’d make a custom one for me with edits that say “anatomy of an otter pop” and “bigger-than-it-should-be cut off bit for Sparky”

Misattributed Quote of the Day: “I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy.”
You’ve undoubtedly seen this quote somewhere online today, most likely attributed to Martin Luther King, Jr. It’s both pensive and timely; certainly looks like something a nonviolent activist such as King would say.
Unfortunately, he didn’t. And neither did anyone else before today, when the originator of the quote took to Twitter and decided to pretend to quote King.
“What do you get out of saying something pithy, and getting no credit for it?,” asks The Atlantic’s Megan McArdle. “Perhaps they only wanted to say this thing, and knew that no one would pay attention unless it came from someone else,” she posits. “Or, perhaps they are getting a gargantuan kick out of seeing people repeat their lie ad infinitum.”
As Abraham Lincoln once said: “On the Internet, nobody knows you’re not quoting Martin Luther King, Jr.”

Anyone else tired of the ffffound dead ends, especially for photography? I’m thankful Tumblr has made efforts on their end to discourage the practice of lazy posts. But it still is in the hands of the those posting entries themselves. The excuse of not wanting to clutter your blog with credit lines is not a good enough reason.

The source of the post is credited (kateopolos), but the attribution has been modified to remove that the actual source of the quote was from SNL, not the actual Julian Assange. This may or may not be of concern to anyone.
