I like how, in the rush to be politically correct, any picture of three people will never have a white male in it anymore.

Okay, maybe not LOVE but find it mildly interesting and slightly amusing.

I look at this and think of the accompanying memo/email/work order to the design team. You know there was official discussion on taking the black guy out.

My only hope is that it had a comical subject line...

I've got the background templates saved - basically the pictures without the text.

The funny part is that Microsoft simply switched up the template. So it is no longer an embarrassing photoshop, but now it is an awkward looking and poorly designed page, as the polish text extends outside the orange border.

I'm not sure who all knows about the Busey page, but this image (also from fark) had me giggling.
