You know the end times are near when cats learn to fly

Behold, the Orvillecopter:

Honestly, I can't say if I feel more amused or disturbed by this. On one side I think it's freaking hilarious, especially with the cat's facial expression of eternal surprise, on the other hand... how crazy do you need to be to turn your once beloved and now departed pet into a helicopter?

I don't know what to say about that one. Wow.

You can get away with the most insane shit if you call yourself an artist. :erg:

He must have really loved that cat.

As a fan of surreal art, this does get legit props for pushing an actual boundary when I didn't think any were left. As a cat lover, I think my rule of thumb would be: if the cat liked it while he was alive then it might be a nice tribute, or at least not obscene, to have him do it in death, sort of like dressing grandpa in his favorite baseball team's uniform with a bat and ball. But I don't know any cat that likes flying. Don't ask me how I know. But I know.

Actually I don't really know, but come on... cats and flying. Do the math...

That expression is priceless.

Came here intending to post about this one, and saw its already been done.

A spark of creativity or demented? I think demagogue's sentiment is pretty close to my own. This is one of the few things left today that's just WRONG.

Problem I have with it is he turned the cat into a helicopter, RIGHT after it died. Most people I know love their pets and would be upset that their pet died. Him? Not so much, culture thing? I don't know. Maybe he was upset, but being upset and doing that doesn't jive with me. That's a way to immortalize him I guess.
