Ok, you made me curious.  So, “this is not a resource”?  Kind of like how the below is titled, “this is not a pipe”?

https://www.thehistoryofart.org/rene-magritte/the-treachery-of-images/  [The Treachery of Images]

And hey you ranked up!

Yes, but I want to paint a copy and glue a "real" dollar bill to it, just to help get the point across. :LithiumSmileyLMAO::headspinning:

This parody was my idea, but I also saw a painting of an angler fish with money on the lure, which was similarly revealing... :LithiumSmileyLaugh:

I mean I thought they were just joking, since I was joking around, but if they took me seriously, I wasn't trying to be a dick, just having fun. It's cool either way, internet misunderstandings happen all the time.

No, it was in response to me, as I am being a dick. I won't go into detail, as to not be more dickish, but I don't really care.

Someone is altering the website function. Multiple assholes on my ignored user list made posts that were visible AFTER  they had been blocked.

Stuff for mods to look into...

I wonder if it was a user or if the corruption is systemic... >___>

No one  is altering the site function.  If you refresh a thread with someone who's on your blocked user list, the system doesn't always block the user.  If you leave the thread and come back, the post will be blocked.

Not our whole identity! Everything in our lives revolves around bending over for money....

Do you know what the original Magritte piece was trying to say?

Well then, since we're being all reminiscent and shit, I recall an IB thread where the OP was complaining about money and a certain someone was like "yOu WoUlDn'T bE fAcInG tHiS iSsUe If We HaD a ReSoUrCe-BaSeD eCoNoMy."

I read this entire thread and I am…..very confused. :LithiumSmileyLaugh:

The treachery of images is a famous joke painting of a smoking pipe that has a caption: this is not a pipe. The point is, a painting cannot be used to smoke tobacco, therefore the painting is not a pipe, but a facsimile of one. It was the first meme ever, I think? lol

That’s not entirely correct.  The point is that an image doesn’t capture the true essence of what it represents.  Magritte, like his fellow surrealists, was exploring the use of iconography in art and how symbolism could  warp under the intense glare of the viewer.  In overly simplistic terms, the image isn’t what you think it is specifically because you see a pipe.
