iggymoticon.jpg From the Can-You-Tell-It's-Friday Dept.: Maureen O'Connor at Gawker noticed that Iggy Pop's torso kinda looks like a face. I happen to agree, and to prove it, I headswapped it onto Sarah Palin, Sad Don Draper, and Iggy himself. Other LOLiggy possibilities included Joe Lieberman and Admiral Ackbar, both of whom have a striking resemblance to his torso. As a connoisseur of torsos that look like faces, I can say with absolute certainty that no torso-face lookalike has ever topped this NSFW Homer Simpson ladytorso lookalike.

    Now all we need is a Terry Gilliam Monty Python style animation to go with it.

    Dear Weeping Jesus on the Cross, Andrea!
    That Homer Simpson link will haunt me right through to the ‘ol nursing home.
    Thanks for the huge laugh :)

  • facetedjewel

    Anyone care to hazard a guess as to what is standing in for Homer’s ‘nose’?

  • Jack

    Looks like a Basil Wolverton drawing come to life.

  • hpnsack

    ahgh. thats worse than the fucked up cat

  • supersly

    I agree with gths, that is soooooo Earthworm Jim! Pretty funny considering Iggy’s given name is “James”.

  • whizse

    May God forgive me, but Iggy-Palin kinda’ looks like Beaker.

    Be nice, Iggy’s old drummer died today.

  • alowishus

    In his youth Iggy Pop had the body of a god. Now he has the body of an angry god.

  • Flaminica

    Hell of an improvement over that damned cat.

  • Chang

    Gah! Is this the No Face Chase entry? Horrifying.

    Chaser. Stat.

    That’d have to be the man’s soul.

    Snuck into the Orpheum in Boston to see Iggy 100 yrs ago; got onto the catwalk above the stage and watched from there. At one point he was howling at the moon, saw us and got this maniacal grin on his face.

    Tread carefully here. The man is a god.

    LOVE both the man and the LOLs.

    • awjtawjt

      Chase and Iggy are separated formerly conjoined twins.

      • millrick
