As promised, a graphical depiction of THE NAD SHOT TEST originally described in The System 673: Not How That Works. Again, just to break this down:

If you are hiding behind anonymity / in a car / distance / a group of people to say hurtful things, don’t do them. Let’s take the cruelty out of that anonymity and treat people like people. Or someone will come up and kick you in the nads. Or lady-nads. You get the point.

Also, I’m proud to now have a graphical depiction of what dicks on the Internet look like. Explains the term “flame war” pretty well:

And also we now have a great graphic for what getting kicked in the nads looks like. Thanks to the olympics pictograms used in 1972 and 1976 for the heavy lifting on that “kicker”.

There is a wonderful and long-standing tradition of “if I could redesign that, I would ____” within graphic design.  This is true of student projects sure, but also a way for full-time designers to kick loose and do things they wouldn’t normally be allowed to try.  Or simply capriciously as the mood strikes.  Here are some designers who took a crack at redesigning a few NFL helmet designs that they thought were kinda uggo.  I love it, though I don’t think the Viking helmet is so great.  It always looks more like a drip than a horn to me.  Let’s get some real horns on there!  LINK.
