As I looked at this image of Afghans checking out a crater in Kabul, I realized that it was strikingly similar to another image we all know and love. Call it "after", and call this image "before":

It will be only a matter of time before the fark.com guys get a hold of this picture.

...if we're bombing them with pork?

Afghanistan is so arid they don't have enough water to make mud. Hence a flopper drdops like a rock.

I've submitted it to Fark... hope they pick up on it, because their reactions and possible Photoshopping could be hilarious.

This site is pretty cool. I think I may frequent.

The more I look at the bellyflopper image, the more I wonder:

What if that guy has been levitating there for a minute or so? What's if in fact the Second Coming has indeed occured, but this time the Savior has taken an "alternative" body style, and is just floating there to prove to his buddies that indeed he is...

How could you tell from just that image?


Amen brothers.

And these assholes are getting it done for free?!?!

This humanitarian aid thing is going way too far, GWB.

No Afghani should have their own swimmin' hole until every American has one!

Putting a new spin on the phrase "killing them with kindness", eh NBN?

I was on fark.com last night...some of the photo doctorings were hilarious. And it's good press for the Cellar too. :)

I'm on Fark everyday posting, but after I saw the forum topic here, I decided to start frequenting here. Look at the views this topic has had compared to all the others. Big difference eh?

I'm glad I could help so many of you find a new place to hang out and rap with other cool people. I guess posting that picture and getting it on fark.com was a better idea than I originally thought! I'm happy to help and I'll be sure to keep those images going fark's way!!

Keep jamming! I'll keep putting cellar.org on the map!!!!

The idea man,

I've been waiting until all the PS submissions are in at Fark to post the link back to them. Here it is. Enjoy, Cellar folks!

As someone who has read both Fark and Cellar just about everyday for the past several months, I'm rather surprised there hasn't been more overlap until now.

Regardless, Welcome Farkers...
