Thanks to several commenters on my last post I was made aware of this:

The text on the poster says, "Pedobear lurks everywhere" in Polish.

You have now officially won all the internets.
All of them.

This is newspaper from my city (Olsztyn in Poland). They really printed this. :)

[(Anonymous)]

They don't say 'Pedobear is everywhere', but 'Olympics costs 6 billion dollars'

I meant the white text at the bottom of the demotivational poster framing the top picture.

I've never known anyone who stood a real chance of being sued by the Olympic Committee. Another item off my list of things to do this year. :)

Nice work.

[mbarrick.livejournal.com]

Not that there is actually a legal leg for them to stand on.

[nicosian.livejournal.com]

Yeah, probably not. But we had a momentary vision of you being hustled off in the dark of night by masked men and never seen again.

It's pure genius and hats off to you sir, for it.

i read it for the braincandy but it got noticed here too:

Yes, I'm aware of that. It's mentioned in the next post.

The text on the poster actually says "Pedobear lurks everywhere" which in my opinion sounds even better :) look up "czai" or "czaic sie" in a PL-ENG dictionary.

Re: Text on the post

[mbarrick.livejournal.com]

Thanks for that. I'll make the correction.
