Spy23 January 2018, 8:01[spoiler]That is a well executed concept. Also reminds me a bit of the cliched scene of a character in trench coat, fedora and sunglasses, which features in pretty much any movie where a man turns invisible.[/spoiler]
Bear23 January 2018, 7:32It reminds me of the one that comes to life and then tries to shoot itself in the head in Supernatural.
Glasses23 January 2018, 5:34Marco, if the white boxes in this image are where you think the highlighted bits are on "those" you have to get better informed on human anatomy. :P
Papuan23 January 2018, 3:20*cut off by box limits*

It also makes every word of your argument a strawman.
Papuan23 January 2018, 3:19cristiel ruiz - Except the picture IS saying something - the TITLE. Not one person has complained about the “mere picture.” A caricature of a dark-skinned person labeled Papuan - when NOTHING else about the image is specific to indigenous people of New Guinea - is offensive. There is NO "interpretation" going on.

Oh and FYI - transgender people are NOT "confused.” State legislators are when they legally force a trans-man to use a women's bathroom & a trans-woman to use the men's bathroom. So a cis-passing trans-man can be arrested using the men’s, and also has a good chance of being arrested if walks into the women's. The problem was NEVER on transgender people, just like it was never about protecting women/girls from molestation in public toilets, by men “claiming” they’re transgender - which NEVER happens. The issue is 100% BIGOTRY and willful ignorance.

Pretending to be deliberately obtuse about why something is offensive doesn't make you rational or right. It makes you a privilege-ignoring prick.
Mellophone22 January 2018, 23:19My only issue with the subject is that mellophones are even more twisty and turny than a trumpet. It's like a merge of a trumpet and a french horn. As such I think trying to portray one is so tiny a puzzle is not ideal subject matter because you can't come close to a genuine representation.
Shoes22 January 2018, 9:22Remember the cartoon shoe that was drowned in Dip in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit?" Picture that in relation to this image and you'll might get it. It's rather a cross between that and Shelley Duvall's shoes in the live-action version of Popeye.
Ghost21 January 2018, 13:30I obviously agree that the word we (i.e. citizens of the U.S.) associate with this image is Death or the Grim Reaper.

But consider the appearance that is generally associated with the Ghost of Christmas Future from Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol," or the modern day Bill Murray adaptation "Scrooged" and you can see why someone could call this a ghost.
Smoking Stranger20 January 2018, 8:53Entirely impressive image. So much going on in such a small puzzle.
Nut18 January 2018, 2:42Benjamin - It may be called something else in other English-speaking areas, but in the U.S. the title is the word for this hexagonal fastener.
Crystal17 January 2018, 21:26FYI - Karat is a measure for how pure a metal is - 24 karat gold is 100% pure while 12 karat gold is 50% pure.

Carat is the weight measurement of precious stones. 1 carat equally 200 milligrams.
Raven17 January 2018, 8:49"Nevermore."
Baby16 January 2018, 4:05If it were a raccoon or a red panda it would have rings in the tail.

I would've said husky, except for the tuft of white at the end of the fluffy tail. I'd say that means it's a fox.
Dolphin14 January 2018, 8:16I was thinking it looked like Land Shark from SNL.
Chaplin12 January 2018, 17:58And now I want a CC POP doll.
Alarm clock9 January 2018, 19:51Spoiler Warning...

Palouday: Mechanical alarm clocks worked similarly to how a mechanical music box works. You wind a spring inside that gets tighter and tighter, which is what produces the energy to make the clock run (hence why it slows before it stops). This energy is used to turn the various gears inside the clock, which move the hands around the clock face, telling you the time. The alarm functions on another attached set of gears and spring, which are connected to the hour hand. When the hour hand reaches the set time, a lever is released and the energy in that spring is conveyed into the bells at the top of the clock, which will rattle until you click the button to reset that lever or it runs out of energy.
Phone7 January 2018, 11:35Spoiler Warning - @Palouday: You created a finite series of time pulses, via putting your finger in a numbered hole and spinning the dial as far as it would go clockwise. Then you let go, the dial returns to its original position, and you do that as many times as necessary to tell the system what number you're calling. It was a mechanical system, much like how the original telegraph machines worked.
Machine pistol Ingram MAC-101 January 2018, 11:54"Come on Hector, the MAC-10 submachine gun was practically designed for housewives."

-Regina Belmont
Night of the Comet (Christmas 1984)
Marine horror story24 April 2017, 8:13Was thinking the same thing as Coco - it almost looks like it's gums are caved, like it has no teeth.
Shrimp23 April 2017, 9:13Not 'pretty' but a greatly detailed image. I could identify what it was without the slightest difficulty.
Hare21 April 2017, 9:27All these similar images make me wonder. I know that in the U.S. we tend to call such an animal a rabbit unless there's obvious distinguishing features saying otherwise, but the comments on these puzzles seem to be more often labeled as a hare. It makes me wonder if that tendency to favor the word rabbit here works the other way in other countries.
At women's legs21 April 2017, 8:44So is he a skirt creeper or a foot fetishist? Either way it's a bit odd.
Sail21 April 2017, 3:09Great image, with a lot of detail. I'm especially impressed with the nuances in the water and clouds.
Half-Life 220 April 2017, 9:38It's a logo for the video game Half-Life 2. Simple but well drawn.
Baton20 April 2017, 7:02Could be bread, cheese, meat, etc.but I agree with guillermo - it's definitely a knife slicing something on a cutting board. Must be a mistranslation in the title, because I checked and the word baton is not the word for a knife in any language as best I can tell.
Horseman20 April 2017, 2:59This image is very rough. The legs of the horse look wonky and it almost looks like the rider is backwards.
Stork20 April 2017, 2:02Why is it wearing slippers?
Doggy19 April 2017, 23:12It looks like the robo-dog from the remake of Stepford Wives.
Octopus19 April 2017, 5:25Seems to be missing a few appendages.
Cowboy19 April 2017, 5:00Looks more like a little kid on a donkey than grownup cowboy.
Themis19 April 2017, 1:05FTR - "Lady Justice," or Justitia, wears a blindfold in modern depictions and is the Roman version of Themis, but the blindfold itself isn't actually part of the Thesis depictions. This really should be labeled as Justitia.
Email18 April 2017, 23:52I doubt it was an auto-text error, but it begs the question whether this is meant to be email, snail mail or some combination thereof. Maybe the title should be either Oxymoron or Paradox. :)
Axe18 April 2017, 8:17That handle is oddly curved - not sure what kind of leverage you'd get out of that.
Hat18 April 2017, 4:54Agree with ggg, not sure why you'd especially cut off the right side like that.
Newton and the Apple18 April 2017, 4:41Actually the story is simply that Newton claimed watching an apple fall from a tree made him theorize about the effects of gravity, not that it actually hit him on the head. Also, the person in the image doesn't much look like a 20-something Cambridge graduate-student in the 17th century.
Bathing16 April 2017, 10:50Given the beach ball I'd say this is more of a paddling pool than a bathtub. But it's a cute image.
The ham on the spit16 April 2017, 8:47Grilling involved cooking on a grill - this would be spit-roasting.

It's a solid image; reminds me of Doralee's fantasy in 9 to 5. :)
Guitar16 April 2017, 0:20"I don't remember if it was a Telecaster or a Stratocaster
But I do remember that it had a heart of chrome, and a voice like a horny angel"

:)
Dragon15 April 2017, 17:23Very heraldric.
Dog and cat14 April 2017, 15:43Quite sweet.
Dog with a Valentine14 April 2017, 15:12It should be called "Puppy Love." :)
Tank14 April 2017, 9:25Awfully basic and simplistic for such a big puzzle. Kind of a waste.
A gift from the Bunny13 April 2017, 10:08They should try to find a way to gather the holiday sets together and put them on the home page during the appropriate season. I ended up doing this one a few days before Easter. It's a sweet image, with decent detail. I like that the tree is still bare, because in places with real winters, they are often barely budding by March-April. This year is especially true, since in multiple parts of the world this year, January and February ended up warmer than March.
Cat and mouse13 April 2017, 8:36It's an interesting image overall, but it looks like a cyborg bottom with a mouse top, and the scale seems off.
Typist12 April 2017, 10:01She looks like a character in a Dr. Suess book.
Buldozer12 April 2017, 5:35Great images like this are why I wish my 17.3" laptop had an even bigger screen than it already has. So much more detail and complexity in the bigger puzzles. But it's very hard for me to do them if I can't see the number list because it's off screen.
Lamp12 April 2017, 3:38Terrific detail. Great image.
Argo11 April 2017, 11:55Quite a striking and epic image.
Fishing11 April 2017, 9:41Excellent reflective image! Very nice.
Herringbone11 April 2017, 8:11I'd say it's a garden gnome that's been impaled with a fish skeleton - which is not a phrase I ever thought I'd write or type in my lifetime.
