Could Looking At London's 2012 Olympics Logo Land People In Prison?
from the pornographic-simpsons dept
Well, here’s a fun one sent in by ChurchHatesTucker. You may have heard the somewhat troubling story of the guy found guilty of child pornography for downloading images of the cartoon Simpsons performing sexual acts. It does seem a bit ridiculous to claim that naked versions of famous cartoon characters represent actual child porn, but… so sayeth the court. But, here’s the potential problem:
That is the logo for the 2012 Olympics in London. My first reaction to it was that it’s just hideous from a design standpoint, but others quickly noticed something worse. You can look at that logo and… um…
see what appears to be Lisa Simpson… doing something she shouldn’t be doing. Yeah. Once you see it, it never goes away. So, as CHT notes, given that ruling of child porn for having an image of a Simpsons cartoon child performing sex acts… is looking at the 2012 Olympic logo going to be classified as viewing child porn now?

Thank you.
Thank you. The hideous logo just turned into terrible porn. Definitely what I wanted to see plastered all over creation in 2012. LOL
ewwww
1st poster nails it
mod 1st poster up
don't really see it
I can see the oral gratification part of the image there but to say that it looks like Lisa Simpson? Eh, I just don’t get it.
OMFG
I got it and I’m not even a Simpsons fan. [sarcasm]Thank you so very much for putting this into my head.[/sarcasm]
Re: OMFG
Sarcasm — we have the ¡ for that.
Not the first problem
Not the first problem with this logo. When it first appeared it was animated. This stopped pretty quickly when it was pointed out that it could trigger epilepsy.
Re: Not the first problem
When it was first launched, the only colour you ever saw it in was yellow. Then the Simpsons meme was publicised and now yellow’s about the only colour you don’t see it in.
Bart
The one on the left has a flat-top haircut and is about the same size a Lisa. Must be Bart.
OGC
That would barely take the bronze. Here’s the gold medal winner:

Re: OGC
Brilliant! Is calling the artist a wanker too much of a pun?
My eyes cant take it. $750,000 for something like this is… My heart cant take it anymore.
Give me $100K...
…and I’ll come up with something a hell of a lot better. I have no experience at graphical design, but it would be hard to do any worse.
Makes me wonder what logos they rejected in favor of this POS.
Normal human being: Please tell me this logo was just the winner a 5th grade stencil competition!?
IOC: Of course not, a global commission that received a $25 million grant found this logo to be readily accepted by the masses.
Normal human being: It’s not? It’s actually real?
IOC: Absolutely. 100%.
Normal human being: This is why we all hate you.
It’s hideous, that’s for sure. But I just don’t see it…
Did some Google-ing and found several sites that show the logo in its original yellow and it’s even MORE obvious.
What is NOT obvious is that this is SUPPOSED to represent 2012. 20 over 12. So what the hell is the dot thingie in the middle supposed to be: 201.2 ???

Just a dot? Maybe they’re saying Bart’s “thingie” isn’t very big.
Re: Re:
I assume the dot was some generic and uncreative way to remove excess white space from the logo. What else could expect from the 4th grader who designed the logo, though?
Re: Re:
It’s supposed to be 20 over 12?! What?!
It looks like Lisa Simpson doing…what?!
Honestly – either one it’s still bottom of the barrel shitscraping design.
Wow. Just…what?!
I can't see it
So I stopped looking.
After all I can go look at real porn.
I don’t have to imagine it.
My sanity stays intact.

bad design aside…I see it. and unfortunately, once you’ve seen it, you can’t un-see it.
i want to know who picked it. then them warmly by the throut.
Gorden Brown mmm he is almost blind ooops thats a state secret.
My first impression was “Is this Kyle getting a bj from Kenny?” No matter how I look at it I still see Kyle and Kenny.
Not a Simpson fan here.
looks more like maggie….
Rude or Ugly?
My vote: Ugly.
Even the completely nothing to do with Vancouver Vancouver 2010 upside down skate boarding bunny logo is better than that pink thing.
What sick fucks think up this shit?
Don't get swept up...
