Hey There I Fixed Iters,
I know it’s a little out of the blue, but I wanted to say thank you for being a part of the Cheezburger Network. It’s an amazing experience watching the different communities in the Network come together and grow, whether it’s Monday Through Friday or That Will Buff Out. Some of you may have read about it recently in the news that we have become one of the largest humor destinations online — all thanks to you, our community.
More than a thousand fans came out to the Cheezburger Night with the Mariners, we recently picked up our 5th Webby award, were profiled in the New York Times and dozens of other publications. All because we, on the Internet, are participating in creating our own content, and our own humor, and sharing it with others.
We’re going to continue to create more “playgrounds” of humor and lulz, and we’re totally dedicated to making you happy for a few minutes a day and continue to create features that will make your experience here more fun.
We wouldn’t be here without you and your contributions, comments, and love.
Thanks again,
Ben “Cheezburger” Huh and the Cheezburger Network team
P.S. We launched the Trophies feature this month, which rewards you with virtual trophies when you favorite a lolz, vote on them, or create them.

The Elvish building crew sure gets around. – Ms. Fix-It
Favorite Comment: Fixer Bob_super says, “Here, the artist is asking us to reflect on our dependent relationship with essential commodities. What he’s really asking, is how you would react if water wasn’t just there and easy, but locked and hard to get. Influences from his long stays in Africa intertwine with outrage at the wasteful consumerist society, and the superficiality is evoked powerfully by the stains that spread around at the mere though of rationing. Specialists consider this a masterpiece of his Rejection Years, which obviously with his The Great Bonfire Of My White Satin Bed Sheets.
We’ll start the bidding at $250,000, do I hear $250,000?”

Unexpected bonus: Now I can’t hear the husband saying something about dishes not washing themselves. – Ms. Fix-It
Favorite Comment: Fixer Dogmeat says, “I like that the monitor on the right has a majestic mountain scene on it. If the level of intensity of your gameplay becomes too much to bear, you can simply glance over and…
*deep cleansing breath*
…find a “happy place” until your blood pressure returns to nominal levels and the pwnage can recommence.”

Maybe I’m just easily amused, but this meme is cracking me up. – Ms. Fix-It
Favorite Comment: Fixer dono1 says, “That sounds like a wonderful safety accessory for the car. A little kid runs out in front of you and all you do is simply lean over, open the glove box, remove the horn, pump it up, roll down your window, aim it in his direction (which at this point would be under your back wheels) and give him a loud warning toot. It can be used for other purposes too, like signaling the paramedics or the coroner. And best of all? Only $9.95.”
Happy Thursday Fixers! Yesterday I used Google Earth to find my house and was saddened to see our Internet Overlords have dropped the ball. Not only was my house blurry, but our fence wasn’t even up; meaning Google hadn’t been by in years. For shame. But at least it was there, you know? It’s not like it looked like this:
Really pretty, boring old suburbia right? Not quite. This is actually an aerial photo taken during WWII of the Lockheed Aircraft Plant in Burbank, California. Turns out having the Japanese bomb one of our military installations put the rest of the west coast ill at ease. Lockheed was a large target, so the government enlisted the help of their neighbors at Disney to help design a realistic way to hide in plain sight. What they came up with was nothing short of brilliant. Hand painted tarps were raised to cover 45 buildings spread across 550 acres, giving the illusion nothing here was worth a Japanese fighter pilot’s time. While underneath, THIS was happening:
While the tarps did the job of covering the most noticeable military buildings, other methods were used to make the illusion come together. Chicken wire and feathers dyed green became bushes and trees, factory air ducts were fashioned to look like fire hydrants and workers hung laundry out behind the “cottages” to mimic everyday life.
