Photoshop expos... what a solid way to kill half an hour.
Um, first?
STUNNEdqvist is a classic
good job to all
is that the cotton candy man's head in the anchorman picture??? lmao.
Yeah, STUNNEdqvist gets my pick as Blue Ribbon of the Photoshop Expo.
Though I must admit, using a demotivator and sticking Jagr in it was a class move.. and I may steal that idea >_>
Free Candy = Flavor of the week or is it here to stay?
Could anyone hear the Cotton Candy Guy during the broadcast last night?
Life-changing
amazing work.
Photoshop = Gold.
Blueshirt Bulletin = Stunned.
@Coffeytalk: The Scrubs photoshop made my day. Ryan Malone as Dr. Cox is the best idea ever! Dr. Cox is my favorite character and well you know ... Also, Roberts as the Janitor is supreme ... Scrubs finale is on Thursday and luckily doesn't mess with my Pens schedule. Dr. Turk = Laraque ... Dr. Turk, what do you think?
I think Roberts stole my soul when I clicked on "The Power of Roberts compels you"
I love this blog!
free candy is here to stay
in the post below this one is something that will forever be on the internet, unless youtube fails us
The "Stunnedqvist" photoshop should be hanging in the Louvre
Dropping the Gary Roberts Bomb photoshop changed my life.
Wow!
haha i love they put up the pic of my holding my jersey in front of the city. too bad the pic is so small, though.
here's a bigger version:

Alright, because I'm shameless, I'll submit my Gary Roberts Demotivator, though I'm not shameless enough to send it to staff directly after ripping off someone else's idea.
Well, somehow, I managed to fuck up copy and paste, RETRY
ragsphotoshopblog = life changing.
@IHKaspar
dr. turk = LaRock
perfect choice. only choice, actually. ;)
[Hossa: The Undertaker]
The Scraps/Scrubs one sooo works. Such awesome talent here. Good job to everyone who made something.
glad to see everyone's enjoying my "stunnedqvist" Photoshop
And the Stunnedqvist was awesome as well.
pfft, this version of c-blog is soff. Come join us down in the season recap version of c-blog with Jason and I.
Props to all 'shoppers.

However, though there was no real 'shopping done my favorite was
"The Power of Roberts Compels You"
by Michael F.
I would vote to have that written at the top of the Pensblog page for the rest of the playoffs. Anyone? tPb staff?
goodness, how many chops do you get in a wk?
not that it really matters, but the ones by Matt K were join, we did the together over the web and he sent em in.
thats teamwork.
Wow, these are fucking hilarious! Lol @ Sid and Marian's Excellent Adventures, and Charlie's cameos... He OWNS everything!
My fave was Von Douche... by a long shot :P
what does the free candy mean?
@Dr. Turk: Well, Laraque does rock ...
Angelo gets shot down by Staff (jk.) I think Free Candy has to be one of my favorite nicknames for any player.
@Sean: If you go to the Pens site and look at Brooks Orpik's picture, you'lll see he looks extremely creepy and looks like a child predator. So, someone did a photoshop and put Orpik in a van with free candy written on the side.
when i think of the creepy picture of Orpik i think of the ice cream vans that roll around playing disney-like music to reel in the kiddies.....
o, photoshop idea just exploded....
Staff, I posted that cheesesteak of suffering at least three times this season, and it took someone else doing it for you to pay attention? That hurts. *sobs like a Ranger fan*
Matt in NC has my favorites - the Malkin tank and the USS chasing the turtle. Awesome.
Kaspar, I agree about Free Candy. When I first saw the original 'shop I was kinda horrified, but that's worn off and now I love thinking of his bone-crushing hits as "candy."
Pensgirl=stunned
I have the cheesesteak widget on my Mac.
Actually, I'm not remotely stunned. I'm whining. Big diff.
Yeah Big K, it's one of my favorite widgets (along with the Shakespearean-era-English insult-hurler). I like to think about how the Pirates have won a championship more recently than the Flyers, and I laugh and laugh and laugh.
Great job as usual everyone. Am I the only one who thinks little debbie briere looks exactly like malcolm in the middle?
Anyway, there was a link sometime in the last couple weeks of all the players contracts & whatnot, if anyone can repost a link or let me know where to find the old one it would be greatly appreciated. It's finals week & i don't have the time to go through 5000 posts.
Go Pens!
thanks IHK!
@FH
dr. turk = stunned that pensgirl rejects being stunned.
pensgirl = spurned.
730p for Sunday game & NOT on NBC?
Golf> America's Favorite Mom>Pens v Flyers
the scrubs one was great. that show has ties to pittsburgh. characters dr cox and dr kelso have mentioned it before.
anyway, also liked the sid&marian excellent adventure, avery soap, anything with charlie, and the sawIV photoshop with averys head (cause its mine)
fuck you flyers.
go pens \('>/
pensgirl
sorry :(
-dr
@Pensgirl: I know what you mean. The free Candy van kind of scared me at first because it was really creepy, but now I'm in love with the nickname. That being said, I'm staying as far as possible from "free candy" vans unless I see Orpik driving them 'cause I know he's just beating up our opponents. Hmmm... was it really the hit from Hossa that gave Avery the lacerated spleen or was it Orpik driving around in his vehicle of choice?
Jagr isn't going to retire, but he might not stay in NY. Straka may have played his last game, though. If Marty played his last game, I feel bad because I mad fun of him ... I still like Marty deep inside.
ihk: i still like marty deep down inside
THATS WHAT SHE SAID.
wow dr t, i just realized the sans nbc on both saturday & sunday's games this weekend. good news-i get a nap, bad news-come 1pm i'll be switching over to NBC in anticipation and failing
@Coffeytalk: Hahahahahahahaha!!! Oh my goodness, that was perfect!
Scrubs and Pittsburgh:
Dr. Cox has said he is from Pittsburgh. But, he is a diehard red wings fan.
Dr. Kelso played baseball in Altoona, I believe.
There was also a random appearance of a terrible towel in Turk and JD's apartment.
I think if Zach Braff and Andy Samberg had a baby, it would look like Bing.
Me=stunned that Pensgirl isn't stunned
I need to sleep.
*also Dr. Kelso has talked about being from Monroeville.
So, the Pens have "Cindy" and "Gena"?
The Flyers have:
Danielle Briqueer
Martina Queeron
Dyke Bitchards
Scotty Upskirt
R.J. Shitburger
AND OF COURSE................
RILEY COTEX!
Any other ideas?
Turk also has a man-crush on Jerome Bettis.
You're right about Altoona also.
Ah yes!
10 points for you, wilsmith!
I envy all of your skills, my favorites:
Sid & Marian's Excellent Adventure
Avery in preschool
Pennsylvania Welcomes You
Jagr in an airport holding baby Avery with a squirrel for a soulpatch. I think just typing that sentence made me stoned.
Promotional code: Sean Avery
Stick a fork in 'em Rangers logo
And Javaspeak's Scrubs. That one is rowdy. By the way, where is he?
And pensgirl, your thorough schooling on the Pens lean years and the current housing situation made my head spin...that kind of logic might be baffling to some, but you hit the nail square on the fucking head.
Good lookin' out on the nicknames Big K, we'll have to keep those handy for the next couple weeks.
ha. javaspeak. i get it.
rowdy is currently wearing my gary roberts t-shirt, a pens hat and a wwgrd band.
i'll send a photo in.
At the game yesterday, it sounded to me like "Free Candy" is starting to approach USS Hal Gill levels. There were lots of "Free Candy" references being thrown around F-balcony yesterday.
STUNNED-qvist caused me to laugh so loud, I scared the dog. That came right from WishI'dthoughtofitblog.
"Stop Whining, Shut Up..." was incredible.
And I love the Scrubs one, too, Coffeytalk...excellent job on that...especially Malone.
The Roberts submarine ones are classic.
And I love the one of Jagr as the old guy in the chair.
In the episode after Dr. Cox shows up drunk to the hospital and JD comes in finally to talk to him, he says he snuck into Dr. Cox's house and said he was a Bus fan ... That's one of my favorite episodes!
@BigK: I always call Gagne, Gag-me, but I'm lame so whatev.
@pensgirl
"I like to think about how the Pirates have won a championship more recently than the Flyers, and I laugh and laugh and laugh."
That has to be the greatest slap in the face of all time. As a psu alum who has been in countless pittsburgh vs. philly sports arguments, thank you.
Philly fans = stunned.
Their only comeback is "how's your basektball team doing?" Pathetic.
Aw, thanks Derek. Rest assured mine are crocodile tears...jus' teasing. I'm just sad you haven't been able to enjoy the cheesesteak longer...'tis a beautiful thing. :)
Turk: Spurned - HA! I like it. That's a first...
Coffeytalk: Nice one, Michael Scott. (That's what she said.)
Stoosh, it was funny you mentioned Lemieux's playing in Wilkes-Barre that one game in 2001 today, I was about 20 minutes away from winning this. It just got too expensive for me.
About Gagne: Also, I forgot he hasn't been playing because of that concussion ... wow, I am lame :(
Ryan, I'm glad you liked it. And to the basketball question I'd say "Consistently in the NCAA Tourney. And yours?"
"I like to think about how the Pirates have won a championship more recently than the Flyers, and I laugh and laugh and laugh."
Wow. I've never thought about it that way. Talk about the insult to end all insults.
I'm pretty sure that they re-took all of the players' pics for the playoffs. Brooks doesn't look creepy anymore. While it's a much better picture, I definitely prefer the Free Candy one.
Their only comeback is "how's your basektball team doing?"
Big East champs?
@ vezonex -
Continuing discussion from the trolling thread below...
Here's the Tyler Wright-Peter Worrell game.
If you scroll all the way down, you can get the AP recap of the game. By their notes, Worrell hit...Jeff Serowik! Good memory on that. I remember Serowik but I vaguely remember him getting hit in that game (I remmeber him also having a cannon for a shot, too).
Everything happened at 16:59 of the second period according to the box score.
I remember that game because I'd just gotten back to Pittsburgh from being in Erie for Christmas. A bunch of us got tickets to the game, sat in Section C right behind one of those Gold Circle luxury boxes (those mini ones that sit up above the concourse entrances), which was empty when the game started. So we asked the usher if we could move down there if it was still empty at the end of the first period. During the first intermission, he gave us the thumbs up, so we commandeered the Gold Circle Seats for the rest of the game.

phuck those philly phag shirts check em out
dying alive:
i took that stunned ranger fan photo. he was sitting next to me for most of the game. My cousin and I traded seats after each period.
@ Pensgirl -
I can do one better than the Pirates.
Pitt Football (FOOBAW!) has won a championship more recently than the Flyers.
And before I incur the wrath of any Pitt fans, the only team I follow more than Pitt football is the Pens. :)
@pensgirl
all in good fun!
was the 1st s____d word that came to my head.
@IHKaspar
wasn't JD a pizza delivery guy in disguise so he could sneak into/crash Dr. Cox's Superbowl Party?
also Dr. Kelso's dad was a doc in Monroeville living near turnip farmers exchanging turnips & hand knitted sweaters for treatment????
I could just be recalling all this from a dream I had once & be totally off base.
talkingoutmyassblog?
please, somebody set me straight before I turn the computer off....
Turk, I totally loved it. That was the perfect word!
Hossa nicknamed "The Undertaker" is now here to stay IMO
@ JONNY V -
That would be a sweet jersey, but that's a lot of $$. For some reason, that jersey looks awfully dated. Some of the other WB/S jerseys have held up well. That particular design didn't.
Looking at those screen caps of the broadcast of that game, seeing the 9/11/01 thing up there was a little sobering. OK, it was a lot sobering (not that I'm drunk...). I forgot that game was played so closely to 9/11.
alas, only one more scrubs episode.
go pens.
@ Coffeytalk -
You guys should've offered Mr. Stunned Ranger Fan some Pens cookies. Or perhaps some Swedish Fish. :D
There was one Rangers fan in F2, but he was sitting way up in the back row. I tried to get a picture of him after Geno's goal, but there was just no discreet way to hold the camera up and turn it almost completely around to get the shot. Plus, he looked a little strung out...by the time Geno scored, he was looking kind of like Jack Nicholson about 3/4 of the way through "The Shining"...capable of either killing someone or jumping off the balcony.
those pens cookies are good luck.
i think that kid knew i was taking a photo of him. i held my phone right up to his stunned face.
woops.
No margaritas and no hockey make Chica something something.
Holy crap, i know exactly where that Welcome to PA sign is. 70W coming into PA from MD
I probably shouldn't admit to defacement, but that little white square in the lower right corner is a Calvin and Hobbes sticker from Eides. Of course, I had nothing to do with it.
@pensgirl
Thanks!
I like to think about how the Pirates have won a championship more recently than the Flyers, and I laugh and laugh and laugh.
Outstanding!
pensgirl=queen of smack!
go crazy?
@bng66: Yes! I can't wait until Friday! I know we have the Worlds, but it's not quite the same, ya know? *headdesk*
look who commited
Mirtle's blog has a poll up on who is gonna take home Stanley.
...as in the cup, not savran.
this time of the year....bandwagon fans emerge everywhere..... vomit.
Coffey, sweet pic of two c-blog HOF's So now u have Turk and Stoosh, whooo's next?
Doc Turk, u were spot on with your Scrubs storyline recalling. We're a bunch of Scrubs nerds...I love it.
OK now I'm blushing. But since that comment went over so well, I'll post something I said on the Burgh Blog earlier:
Here are some things that have been unleashed on the world since the Flyers last won a Cup:
Saturday Night Live
President Jimmy Carter
Star Wars
me
a Pittsburgh Pirates championship
four Pittsburgh Steelers championships
ESPN
MTV
Sidney Crosby
two Pittsburgh Penguins championships
“You’ve got mail!” and the rest of the interwebs
I was wondering that myself, jonny v.
I'm easy to find at games. (almost a that's what she said)
Okay, unrelatedblog, has anyone here ever watched I'm with Busey?
Busey has been a running joke at work for some reason, and I dug up those shows because my stoner friends in college used to watch it.
Anyone?
I figure I'd ask around, because, as the Busey says, Together Everyone Achieves More.
Other things that have happened since Philly won a title...
the McNugget
Microsoft Word
The Israeli hostage crisis
Crack first introduced to the US
Mike Tyson's boxing debut
Wrestlemania
MacGyver
Nintendo Entertainment System
Calvin and Hobbes
Mir Space Station
Roger Clemens had sex with a minor
The Unabomber
My Two Dads
Doogie Howser M.D.
New Coke
IMDB listing
That show was just plain weird. What an idea for a show though. My stoner show of choice in college was Sifl & Olly. Precious Roy was unreal.
I'll have my peepers peeled CT
@johnny v
thanks for the confirmation!....I can recall that silly stuff...but struggle to remember birthdays, [not mine, THAT would be REALLY bad] anniversaries, phone numbers, names....
@coffeytalk
what's the playoff record with the Ronnie #9 & Jackie O shades? [I guess when I think about it, EVERYONE is UNDEFEATED at the Mellon with WHATEVER they are wearing or NOT wearing...WOOOOOOOO]
BTW, what's up with leaving your seat before the period is over with that suitcase you call a purse????
Stoosh, at least she offered you food + drink....I got: bupkis!!!! [jk]
Need help for a cruel photoshop.
How do you take a screenshot?
oh and speaking of scrubs, soup nazi is on right now.
bng: "prt scr" button when you're looking at what you want the screenshot of.
then go to your photoshop/paint and just Paste your clipboard (ctrl+v).
8 other people have already posted the answer before me.
@ dr. t:
that francis jersey has won every home game so far in round 2.
when did i leave my seat? i don't remember. i did get pretty tanked the game i saw you at and probably had to pee. Don't job my purse! My "suitcases" are beautiful and true!
Also, I offered you food and beer! But you turned it down.
tsk tsk turkleton.
Like Stokes once said:
That's why Wilsmith is a big deal.
Speaking of which... I had a killer sub sandwich today. Killer.
Mmmmmmmmm.
mmmmhm.
I love me some sandwiches.
I'm like a sandwich connoisseur of sorts.
The subway sandwich of the day?
It doesn't look like flyer hater will get to sing turn the page, tonight...
Calls, calls, calls...
Calls from the public!
@coffeytalk
I keeed...I keeed....that's what the [just kidding] was supposed to represent....
I think it was before the 1st period ended...I happened to glance over & saw a large garment bag walking down attached to a Francis #9 jersey.[J.K.]
Going to Game 3.1 ???....My tix this round are for Home Game 1 & 3...so far, 2 rounds, 2 games...great for the Pens & lite on the credit card.
Commit, version 1.1.
I've got a worse playoff beard than Sid!
1-0 with the new shirt, though! I almost went with the old standby (2005-06 white Crosby jersey), but decided to go with the shirt I'd just picked up the day before.
Also, Coffey, sorry to startle you when I walked up at first. I thought I yelled "COFFEY!" loud enough for you to hear as I was walking over, but I didn't.
Not sure if I'm going to 3.1 yet.
Waiting for the batphone to ring with the go ahead.
It's all good, Stoosh. Glad you came over!
@stoosh
at least it's better than Jags'
-just sayin'
Appearantly RGB is hooked on tPB now.
I found this pic of him sporting a PB Charlie tee.
Charlie and Mii
[this is so lame, but I had to do it]
wilsmith and his lunch is money in the bank.
"This is Eddie...from Jersey...you guys are suckers! Yeah, sock it to 'em Eddie! Hey Sifl, you're a rotten slouch-backed egg-ass!"..."You know we can see you, right?" "Hey I ain't Eddie..."
A girl with a big purse might save your life one day
@bng66
that doesn't even need PS'd to be funny....
hair on chin>hair on scalp?
@ Coffeytalk -
The Mystery, Alaska reference would've been clutch, too. "They didn't skate the river!"
Likewise, though. It was awesome.
C-blog Luau at Kennywood would be huge.
BNG66,
Duuuuuuuuuuuuuuude.
Awesome.
nothing like being in arizona, with a laptop on me, roasting me nuts off, reading about the pens. i cannot wait to visit (or move back!) there next season for a game during winter.
go pens.
dubi dubi dooooooooo
I live too damn far away from all this cblog meet and greet action.
snap.
i think i might risk moving back to the #1 air polluted city just to see the pens more often, haha.
really if it doesnt get better out here for me, ill be back in time for the new arena!
@Jefe: I was offered a job with the company I work for out in Arizona. I almost snagged it up (I love AZ), but I'd be too far away from my sports teams... er... {ahem}... family.
Yeah, that's it. Family.
yeah really arizona isnt bad. but i miss my teams mostly and hanging around the town and stadiums. and pizza.
although im getting in to the teams out here, its not quite the same. the dbacks are awesome tho.
cardinals are great for tailgating.
suns are okay since pgh dont have bball, which i dont like much anyway.
and well, i dont need to even speak of the coyotes lol.
Jefe, Clairton represent (on what makes Pittsburgh so polluted). I couldn't imagine being away from this place right now. It was hard enough being stationed at Camp Pendleton for the Steelers super bowl run. I had to wake up at 5 AM the monday after they won the big one. Hopefully tPB helps u deal
A Kennywood day would be huuuge. Hopefully the cruise director can work some magic...
hah yeah 4 months after i move here the steelers won that.
anyway i just found TPB towards the end of the season. makes my day. i do watch every game on center ice so at least i have that going for me. i just cant watch them live because of the 3 hour time diff, so i cant go on here til after i eventually watch the game. helps skipping ads tho.
CALL TO ARMS!
James Mirtle has a poll up and the Pens need some votes.
As it stand right now:
Your Stanley Cup pick:
Dallas 10% (18 votes)
Detroit 45% (83 votes)
Philadelphia 6% (11 votes)
Pittsburgh 39% (71 votes)
* Mirtle chose NYR to beat the Pens (joke) and Detroit to win over them in the Cup Finals by the way.
done.
got it up to 85 votes.
jefe, try grimaldi's for pizza
yeah grimaldis is awesome. but twice the price of what im looking for lol.
go pens.
