Don’t Be Google

This photo was smuggled out of Google’s New York City corporate headquarters by a friend of mine and features a boxing bear with the slogan “Don’t be evil” on his belt and an American flag for boxing shorts.

   a picture is worth a thousand speculations. Why “smuggled”? We have a large Elf cut out of Will Ferrell looming out our office window. Does this mean we pour maple syrup on everything?

   This thing reminds me of the Judas lion in The Last Temptation of Christ.

   You can dress a bear statue up like Rocky, and write your corporate slogan on the championship belt, and it’ll just make people laugh, but if you break down the constituent parts of the symbol, you can see they all connote notions of force, power, and/or righteousness. Absurdity is an encryption device.
