London Bomber Photoshop Scandal

This just in! They’ve released a new photo taken from the London CCTV cameras revealing a mysterious fifth bomber!

After the bombings, the suspect was reported to have said, “Did I do that?” in an extremely nasal irritating voice. Conspiracy theorists everywhere are abuzz, suggesting the fifth bomber may have been artificially inserted using the Photoshop graphic editing software. Anyone with tips in this case is asked to contact Officer Carl Winslow of the Chicago PD. For more info on this breaking news story, go here!

    The Urkel thing is hilarious! I wrote a sketch about the OK City Bombing back in college that also fingered Urkel. Someone should write up a conspiracy theory linking him to all the major bombings of the last decade.

    What? That’s really weird that you had some kind of Urkel bombing connection. I’m not sure what really made me think of using him in that image, but he seems so perfect now that I did.

    I resonated with Urkel as a bomber at the time because it tied together the banality of the spectacle of dumbed-down mass media and the notion of the lone nut who commites horrible acts. Or something like that. Mostly, it just struck me as a very funny, perhaps because very “inappropriate” juxtaposition.
