the best email I ever received

01/04/2011

Arguably one of the greatest people to have ever lived sent me the best email I have ever received this morning. This is why I love him and email and the Internet and basically everything you're about to see. My face hurts.

right, apropos of nothing I was looking up mr t wigs and I found the following which get progressively more atrocious: first up is the Mr Hammer wig. I like how they've avoided any potential copyright issues by calling it Mr Hammer. The mismatched skin tone isn't so bad in this one. next up is the Mr T wig with apparently Persian beard combo. It looks like what would happen if Mr T had been in 300. The suave look of the white mannequin contrasts sharply with Mr T's abrupt character. Poetic. This one's listed as a deluxe Mr T wig set and is priced at $30. I don't know about you but I wouldn't pay 15-20 quid for this piece of shit. I like this one more than the previous because of a) it's obviously inferior build quality and b) the clueless expression on the mannequin's face, and the fact that they seem to have made an attempt to black it up. AND FINALLY my ultimate favourite. There are so many things right with this one, the fact that they've bothered to black up is superb, and even better is the fact that they've NOT BLACKED UP HIS ARM, and that the beard is obviously painted on the sides of his face. His expression and dedication to the character make this man an instant legend.

I'm not normally one to share stuff like this, but it made me laugh so much that I couldn't not. The last guy looks like some crazed Zoolander/Mr T mashup.
