Rejected Themes Part IV

How to Succeed at Failure Be TSZ
Welcome again, friends. It seems I can not get enough of that sweet little drug called rejection. Why do I continually yearn for the things that push me away? Only my ex-girlfriend's lawyer knows for sure. Time again for a look at the contests that never were, and the pictures that shouldn't be.
Lost Theme 7: "Well, that doesn't belong there..." I banged your mom.
It's too bad this one didn't go green. The other PSers would have put up a good fight, given such clearly defined thematic boundaries. It's sad to say that a lot of people just don't have the special kind of intellect that I do. It's like I'm awesome and great at the same time. That being said, here is a hastily thrown together mock-up of what my winning entry would have looked like.
Definitely out of place, by my reckoning. The other 'shoppers could have kissed their vote averages goodbye if this bad boy had gotten the greenlight. By using the classic cliché of "The Fark Photoshop Thread Critic," I have created something that all the voters are aware of, and can readily identify with. Hail the conquering champion! The Critic should DIAF.
Lost Theme 8: Old School Video Game Movies
That's not the exact wording of the headline. There have been two links in the last few days with this same basic premise. I'm not sure why the admins aren't going for it, since movie themes tend to be popular. Maybe they think we've had too many in recent weeks. At any rate, it's only a matter of time before they greenlight another movie theme. And I'll have this masterpiece on deck. Look out, world...
Does Minesweeper count as a video game? Millions of bored people at work think so. They're the ones viewing Fark, and they're the ones that would be voting for my entry in droves. I mean if it had gone green. But since it didn't, I can declare a premature end to the voting, and proclaim myself the winner. I therefore retain the top spot on the Imaginary Fark Honor Roll. Congratulations, me.
Stay tuned for more crap from the Doctor! And be sure to drop me an email at my all new listed address... Andrew St. Clair sucks.

You are better than me. I am going to send you a mean email.

Oh god, anything but that!

Anyway, here are the rejected themes for today:
Theme: Cereal box promotions that, in hindsight, were not such great ideas after all
Theme: Fark, but under new management
Theme: Where is your God now?
Theme: Computer desktops of the famous


These were all submitted in that order, one after the other. Probably got struck down in similar fashion, too. But I'm sure we'll all have way more fun working on the auction pic.
