That is hilarious. I havent seen most of those. Number 1 is classic.

Gravy: 1 is definitely great – it is my favorite.

These are known as “De-Motivational Posters” which I believe originated on ebaumsworld.com (or at least, that is the site that has encouraged the trend the most). Some are truly genius – I recommend anyone to come across the one titled “Envy” which is certainly my favorite.

Meetings:
None of us is as dumb as all of us!

You can tell in #1, the words are drawn from Paint
but it’s still funny lol.
December 22nd, 2007 at 4:34 pm
Funny, but supporting this list is supporting eBaumsworld.com.
And I just can’t do that.
December 22nd, 2007 at 4:41 pm
Now how about posting a list of the top 10 sexual positions?
December 22nd, 2007 at 4:49 pm
if i remember rightly number 9 was an actual answer someone put in their exam
December 22nd, 2007 at 4:53 pm
Number 9 is my favourite anyway.
December 22nd, 2007 at 5:12 pm
Jacoob: De-motivational is a company out of Austin, TX. Not Ebaum.

Gotta love their mix of humor and philosophy. Number one is the funniest, number seven is the truest.
December 22nd, 2007 at 6:27 pm
#9 is the best for me
December 22nd, 2007 at 9:22 pm
Come on! There are many many more of them which are waay better than the last few!….But these demotivational posters are the best memes to hit the internet in years. Just Hilarious!
December 22nd, 2007 at 9:41 pm
The Simplicity one is my favorite, that’s pretty much my approach to math. More than likely why I failed my 10th grade exam too!
December 22nd, 2007 at 10:45 pm
Idreno i know exactly what one your talking about and i truly is amazing.
December 22nd, 2007 at 10:51 pm
Poster 5…
Been there, done that, got kick out of the bar.
December 22nd, 2007 at 10:58 pm
Those were great! Truly UN-inspiring!
December 22nd, 2007 at 11:15 pm
Poster 9 was hilarious!! I’m gonna do that on my math test!!!!

“Funny, but supporting this list is supporting eBaumsworld.com.
And I just can’t do that.”

#10 – like that.
December 23rd, 2007 at 10:40 am
HA, these are brilliant
December 23rd, 2007 at 1:27 pm
#3 – That one sure looks a mean sob..
December 23rd, 2007 at 3:53 pm
The demotivational posters are only hyped up to rediculous levels on ebaumsworld. They came from Despair Inc. originally. I received a catalogue of their demotivational products from a friend. I would rather hang one of their posters in my lonely cubicle at work rather than see those pipedream ones they hang up everywhere else.

there was an ice cream truck ,in my memories of younger years, spray painted black. AndI would see it parked here and there, around “home”.
#1 makes me think of this
#3 my bets on the eagle.
ok the image in #8 does actually happen. I have seen it.
Ive also seen this poster before.—-my quote, ” teamwork doesnt really matter…regardless of the race run, we all end up in the same place at the end”
nevermind, I’ve lost interest.
booger.
December 23rd, 2007 at 5:29 pm
i have a couple of these that you should post up, they are great
December 23rd, 2007 at 8:15 pm
Haha, I love these! I have seen most of them but they never get old. I gotta find a couple good ones to print out and hang on my wall. xD Great list.
December 24th, 2007 at 6:11 am

December 24th, 2007 at 1:10 pm
lol those are funny.
I love number one.
December 24th, 2007 at 4:42 pm
LOL This guy seems legit.
December 31st, 2007 at 6:42 am
Mhhh, saw most of them already on 4chan a few years ago. Actually i think they might’ve originated there. Sad that everyone believes all the funny internet shit comes from ebaumsworld. *shakes head*

“if i remember rightly number 9 was an actual answer someone put in their exam”
Thats right. This guy goes to my school. He did it for a joke because, suprisingly enough, he did GCSE maths in year 10 and got an A* and then went on to get an A grade in further maths the next year. He also got in the top 5 in the UK for A lvel English in Year 10 (4th form). I wont say his name because it would exploit privacy.

#9 is a funny
February 15th, 2008 at 2:01 am
I made about 55 of these out of pictures of my friends and inside jokes.
February 15th, 2008 at 5:43 pm

These are known as “De-Motivational Posters” which I believe originated on ebaumsworld.com
You’re gonna piss a lot of people off with that statement.
May 21st, 2008 at 7:18 am
lol, I love these thanks for putting them on!!
June 13th, 2008 at 10:33 pm
these are awesome. love the ‘find x’, if only i had been so inventive when i was failing math
June 19th, 2008 at 6:23 am
De-motivational posters were -NOT- started by Ebaumsworld. They were started by a novelty site on the internet over 5 years ago .. check http://www.despair.com They started with coy sarcastic renditions of known office motivational posters there sold on merchandise, the knock offs ensued and made home at ebaums.
Cheers;

Awesomeness (photo of f-22 jet) “One day i was sad and decided to be awesome instead, true story”
Conformity (photo of penguin alone in the snow) “It is the one that is different that gets left out in the cold”
May 24th, 2009 at 2:28 pm
