This Flickr set of 44 famous works of art from paulthewineguy includes additions of html, emoticons, and other computer-based elements to explain them to geeks. Pictured is Oath of the Horatii by Jacques-Louis David. I especially enjoyed the Garden of Earthly Delights and Andy Warhol’s 100 Cans. Link -via Dump Trumpet

Not cranky. Just discriminating in my humour.
I really did try… none of them really worked for me.
Lame
Lamest. Photo album. Ever.
Seriously the worst thing I’ve seen on the internet in a while. At least that 2 girls you know what had SOME entertainment value.
