It starts with an innocent photograph. Here we see an active couple enjoying the great outdoors.
They are exploring this beautiful planet, taking full advantage of a gorgeous afternoon.
On their hike, the adventurous couple come across a gap.
To lighten the load, the woman tosses her knapsack before making the leap.
Nothing to see here… right?

WARP 6 TO PHOTOSHOP. ENGAGE!

And there it is. A baby is born.
The original? Long forgotten.
Accusations of extreeeeeeme parenting begin to circulate.
 
“More like extremely poor parenting” chime the pundits.
 
The Blogosphere ignites. Everyone’s posting the latest WTF pic…

The baby’s a hit! The mainstream picks it up. The following night it’s on the evening news. By now the image is already passe.
So what next?

To the Photoshop Mobile!

The first few are no brainers…

almost predictable…

but necessary in the evolution…

and all of a sudden…

a star is born.

and hilarity ensues…

a little role reversal?

it was only a matter of time before the cleavage showed up…

Cannons! To the left of them!

Cannons! To the right of them!

U Mad?

Alas the Gifs showed up…

and all was well within the Cosmos…

AND THAT’S THE WAY YOU DEBATE!
