An example of how stupid I am

[TheSmokeamater]

So I'm looking at the BoB logo on the home page. I'm stareing at the two pipes leaned into oneanother brim to brim. I ask my self......, "Why in the world is there some kind of silouette of a very pudgy Kiwi bird walking over the pipes? I go away for a few hours and look again. ...."For the love of God!! This makes NO SENSE at all!! What's with the Kiwi bird?!

I just realized it is supposed to depict smoke.

This is NOT a knock on the designer of the logo.... Its just how screwed up my brain is. :bounce:

That's funny. I can totally see the Kiwi bird now.

Now I'll never be able to NOT see the kiwi!

 

[DustyRoundup]

Yep, I guess from now on , it always will be a kiwi bird,, Thanks Alot Man ! :roll:

LOL

 

[mark]

No, not stupid,,, you're not the first one to mention it, and probably not the last. :lol!:

 

[Natch]

I asked the same question a few years back. And you're right, you'll never "not" see it again.

Can't unsee the kiwi bird.

 

[alfredo_buscatti]

I always saw a kiwi bird; never saw smoke. Now I see smoke; where'd the bird go?

I thought the first test was the hate PM I got last week!

Not to ruin all the fun but the kiwi was deliberate. If memory serves me,
The designer was a New Zealander or a shoe shine boy.

 

[Kyle Weiss]

Huh. I always saw a thick-necked female elephant seal moving to the right. That was after the kiwi, though. I got bored with the kiwi.

 

[Puffy]

Can't count the times I've looked at that bird and not seen it.Until now that it's been pointed out..I like birds.

 

[puros_bran]

Kyle does too.

 

[Kyle Weiss]

:|

Only if they clean.

 

[ruraldean]

Now I have a choice of elephant seal or kiwi I'm confused. It's like that spinning ballerina all over again...

 

[MisterE]

I never noticed that before. Geez.

I heard Kiwi dabbled with stem polish at one point though.

Oh-em-gee, great prank: take your buddy's pipe, "polish" it with black shoe polish.

Black-lipped pipe smoker. :cheers: Everyone laughs, except the victim. Reminiscent of the shoe-polish-on-the-telescope gag.

Probably wouldn't work, though--they'd smell it or smear it beforehand. Just funny in my head.
