A Moon base would be epic and I'm not saying that because I'm one of the few people who thinks humanity should have colonized the moon by now.

I see no reason to colonize the moon other than it'd be cool. Unless I'm missing something it's just a barren old space rock.

Exactly, what more reason do you need?

What's the point of the above photoshop? It confuses me why anyone would photoshop themselves onto a completely non-famous road.

The story behind the picture is here.

edit:

Chinese faked photograph leaves officials on street of shame
Officers in Huili, Sichuan apologise for badly doctored picture of men inspecting new road on local government website

For government officials in Huili, a distinctly modest county in a rural corner of south-west China, attracting national media coverage would normally seem a dream come true. Unfortunately, their moment in the spotlight was not so welcome: mass ridicule over what may well be one of the worst-doctored photographs in internet history.

The saga began on Monday when Huili's website published a picture showing, according to the accompanying story, three local officials inspecting a newly completed road construction project this month. The picture certainly portrayed the men, and the road, but the officials appeared to be levitating several inches above the tarmac. As photographic fakery goes it was astonishingly clumsy.

The outraged – or amused – calls began to the county's PR department, which immediately apologised and withdrew the image. The explanation was almost as curious as the picture itself: as other photos showed, the three men did visit the road in question, but an unnamed photographer decided his original pictures were not suitably impressive and decided to stitch two together.

"A government employee posted the edited picture out of error... The county government understands the wide attention, and hope to apologise for and clarify the matter," a Huili official told the state-run Xinhua news agency.

Officials from the county, in Sichuan province, even hurriedly signed up to the hugely popular Sina Weibo social media site to post an explanation.

All this was, however, too late to prevent a torrent of mockery as the offending image was passed around chatrooms and other websites. Inevitably, within hours there was a flood of parodies showing the officials variously landing on the moon, surrounded by dinosaurs and, in one instance, joined on their inspection tour by the North Korean leader, Kim Jong-il.

To make it famous?

"This is the road where so and so photoshopped themselves on to!"

Not a cartoon, but I didn't know where else to put it. Dear America: the Germans get it.

It's apparantly Franken-Murdoch zombifying a famous murder in the UK, I get that much.

I'll use the blue-eyed guy in TheJeebusfire's siggy - hotness acts as a lovely bleach.
