Shit just got real:

Dear Jim,

Please paint me a bat in a leotard being distracted by a violin sticking out of a rainbow coloured bottle bank next to a three legged toffee crisp holding a mushroom and half a wasp. In the background is a turtle having a tennis lesson, and an upside down Taj Mahal covered in ears.

Thanks,

Darren Harvey

This is like LanaDelRayGate all over again...

Really?!? I think it's crap...

I don't get it either. Is it because it's so 'random'? Is that why it's funny?

I think it's funny because it's MS Paint, which is always good for lulz, even when done badly (which this isn't)

I think the fact it's really well done whilst looking like it genuinely is done in paint is part of what makes it funny... I particularly like the Ross kemp one.

I don't find the contrived 'random' stuff funny and I've never found ms paint funny either.
Then again I haven't really laughed that much since the summer of 2008.

Did someone remove your funny bone?

Remember back in the olden days, before "random" got invented by 12 year olds, and we used to have things like "nonsense"? Edward Lear, The Owl and The Pussycat, Roald Dahl's James and the Giant Peach, Will Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream, that sort of thing?

The Jim'll Paint It stuff is straight-up surrealism in the same vein. It's contrived in the same way all nonsense and surrealism is contrived, out of necessity - otherwise it'd be rubbish.

Pfffff!

Vic Reeves and the 1990s rang and would like their 'comedy' back...

You can't compare it to all that. It's shit. It's a bunch of idiots trying hard to be as obscure and cerrrazy as they can.

I can, and I do. All nonsense is nonsense. That's the point of it. You can't create nonsense out of stuff that makes sense. Nonsense is only funny because it doesn't make sense.

Do you reckon it takes talent to create nonsense?

How can you mention nonsense without mentioning Lewis Carroll and Salvador Dali? The latter of which is clearly the parent of this.

James and the giant peach and MSND are pale examples of surrealism compared with the Alice books (not saying they aren't good, but hardly the best example of surrealism)

Round the Horne > Monty Python > Vic reeves

I wholeheartedly agree with my esteemed colleague above.
