Description
Previously only available to professional politicians and their spokespeople. They use it to cut down opponents who have done something silly, when they themselves have done the same thing at one time, or another. Manufactured Outrage is now being offered to the regular people too.
You've seen it before. A co-worker puts a handful of company paper clips in their pocket and leaves for the day. You see this and you want to do something, but you're not sure you want to get involved. Quick, drink a can of Manufactured Outrage, then grab the pitchfork and torch and tell everyone what you saw and demand to the boss that the employee be fired and maybe even give you a promotion by handing you that person's job. Of course... you don't want to mention that company fax machine you stole last year. Why, that's Outrageous!

Lol, great work
More wonderful Frogdot Industries satire. Got to love it!
Canned Outrage, the drink that reminds us we have yet to evolve, brilliant and very funny.
Sometimes there are funny coincidences in the gallery :)
Nothing's so loud As hearing when we lie The truth is not kind And you've said neither am I But the air outside so soft Is saying everything.... Everything..... All I want is to feel this way To be this close, to feel the same All I want is to feel this way The evening speaks, hear it say.... Nothing's so cold As closing the heart when all we need Is to free the soul But we wouldn't be that brave I know And the air outside so soft, Confessing everything.... Everything.... All I want is to feel this way To be this close to feel the same All I want is to feel this way The evening speaks, I feel it say.... And it won't matter now Whatever happens will be Though the air speaks of all we'll never be It won't trouble me (sung over last chorus) And it feels so close Let it take me in Let it hold me so I can feel it say.... Toad the Wet Sprocket Save the Popping of the Top of a SixPac of whoopass for when you see the Parent being Beligerent towards a Child or the Next time you see someone being Less than Kind to a Homeless Person....Just my PoV. Peace
LOL, great image and very funny, but sadly true, concept.
What a great statement on the way the media seems to work...at least to these jaded old eyes...well thought out and executed.. ...
reminds me of the pressurized can of "BS repellent" I saw once as a gag - you were to spray it around in staff meetings whenever the stench of BS was detected. But his is way better!
I really like your scathing commentaries on our society. This one made me laugh, although with a twinge of unease (searching through mind, have I ever been guilty of this?). Very cool picture! P.S.: is it just me or does her hand look really, really big? Just thought I'd mention it.
I've been going through a six pack of this a week since it came out.
Brilliant Art....!!!
