[ARCHIVED THREAD] - BADSELFEATER - It's Officially Happened! (Page 3 of 275)
Something odd about the color on this one, but I can't figure out why. The bill images were (per Photoshop) perfect on color, contrast, and image tone. This one is off on tone and color, reverting to a near gray scale image of a dragon/serpent. For so many deliberate things, that makes me wonder.

Fnord. Never whistle while you're pissing, you might blow your mind. I've picked out other references on Arfcom. I'm really surprised how many have read those books. It borders on the creepy.

Huh, okay then. Here's some information on the painting. But the important part is Picasso decreed that the painting was to not return until democratic liberties were restored in Spain, upon which the painting was returned on September 10, 1981. Some of the letters to the exterior of the back of the bill are an anagram for "MARK THE TENTH" |

Now the Facebook page has found to be https://www.facebook.com/ThankMrTeeth, which has some more clues and information, including high resolution files of the bills which allows you to get a much better look. Other Symbols to Note: 2. Corporate Logos sprawled across the bill. They should make another one that shows big chunk of iron. |

Quoted: http://i63.tinypic.com/33vi26p.jpg The initials are pretty interesting. You'll notice the ones at the bottom are current Supreme Court justices, and at the very bottom shows a question mark(the vacated seat of Scalia). SS - Sonia Sotomayor RG - Ruth Bader Ginsburg EK - Elena Kagan SB - Stephen Breyer SA - Samuel Alito CT - Clarence Thomas AK - Anthony Kennedy JR - John Roberts What are the 9 at the top? |

From strictly a symbolism standpoint, there is a lot of detail and thought that was put into the designs. Everything from the rift in the supreme court where liberty has fallen dead to the serpent eating itself. Old symbolism mixed with new.
It looks like a case for Robert Langdon! There appear to be red letters in the part where it says "Federal Vote". I imagine the dragon represents China and that the dragon has "tread on the rattlesnake"... Quite interesting, and I am looking forward to more info! |

Interesting as heck. I would love for this to be a real fight against the corruption in the government, but I suspect it is more along the lines of Wallstreet protesters, just some kooks. Too bad, they seem to have a talent to get folks interested. That is great technique, leave the clues, and get folks to work for the info--it becomes more real that way. What does RTEETH mean? Ah, found it: Far left says "R T E E T H" Far right says "T H A N K M" and "MMXVII" (2017 in roman numerals) (THANKMRTEETH) |

Lol, please, please tell me the Asian lettering stands for "fag" or "slut". Actually I think it's Kanji for 'peace' Kanji, Hanja... all the same character. That's a perk of a non-phonetic written language. It means a lot all by itself, can also imply union or harmony, or simply "with." Also mpby itself can mean "soft" or "warm" or "to blend" - so I suppose they are going for this whole "go along to get along, "submit" sense. Some words at use it include a better translation for peace, (he ping) or harmony (he sheng). Speaking of Japanese, it is apparently the first syllable in a word for kimono, "he fu" Full disclosure, I know only enough Chinese to be able to use a dictionary, nothing more. Hopefully a native speaker will come along to assist. |
