Stock Photos

For the past couple months I have been looking at the same type of stock photos for this one project I'm working on at...well work, and there are some really great caption opportunities. Stock photos have to be some of the most hilarious photos out there, but then you get creepy doctors with vials staring into webcams, or a group of business people that obviously get paid to do nothing all day as they sit around a table building towers out of solo cups. My favourite series of the day was this group of people all in suits in an empty concrete room sitting in a circle. It's like an AA meeting...only the pictures progress into two guys wrestling, and then having a pillow fight, and then one of the guys strangling the pillow, and then a woman with a red foam bat standing over an unconscious man...and I'm not exactly sure what's going on. I have to admit my favourite photo of the day is this. I can only assume this woman snapped from the pressures of the business world and decided to follow her dreams of world domination, taking this poor old man hostage. Just the sheer horror on the old man's face and the delight on the woman's face is just pure gold. (seriously, take a look at the tags and everything and tell me if you'd expect that based off what you see...I love how "communication" is one of them).  

Anyway, I'll take up the hobby of mocking stock photos another day. Penumbra and Bioshock Infinite are coming along slowly. Almost done Penumbra Overture...I have up to part 6 uploaded. Part 6 has some really good bits in it, especially since we didn't expect a few of the events. Bioshock Infinite is fairly good, though I've been fixing some problems with an echo picked up by the mic. I'm going to try and finish uploading Penumbra Overture by the weekend, and then I will (hopefully) bring you Half Life 2.
