Photoshop has ruined our childhood ...

Jessa at Bookslut points us to Something Awful, which once again reminds us that message-board geeks with Photoshop and too much spare time are dangerous things. This time, they're making children's books tawdry -- with mostly humorous results. Some of the jokes are obvious, while others are a bit offensive, but most are pretty funny.

My childhood love/hate relationship with Encyclopedia Brown probably makes the above image seem funnier than it really is. Eh, it made me snort, though.

But, as the kids say, your mileage may vary.
