Yep, that is what they did, and they did a good job. Probably a decent graphic artist. And they did all the little things needed to make it believable with no noticeable cut and past marks. And oh yeah, they used Photoshop or another good photo/image manipulation software…and not MS paint!

I’ve done some extensive shops and sometimes I will crank out something quick to get it into the conversation or topic…like my Ghomert with plumbing yesterday, I wanted to get the immediate joke and not spend a ton of time.

There’s a guy named Zac McFlimby who ‘shops some pretty good stuff. You probably know who I mean, but I just found about him yesterday after a Facebook friend posted a probably bogus story about a granny packing heat and chasing four guys out what she thought was HER car. (It was theirs, same make, model and color as hers.)

Anyway, the photo was of Queen Elizabeth II behind the wheel of a car holding an automatic handgun (with suppressor!) in her right hand, looking mean and tough. On the rearview mirror is McFlimby’s watermark. Had me fooled till I spotted it.
