It’s literally exactly what it looks like: eighty pages of improperly sourced photos of
Boeing CH-47 Chinook
military transport
helicopters and/or chinstrap penguins, run through a shitty Photoshop edge detection filter to produce a crude facsimile of a colouring book.
I cannot conceive of who this benighted thing’s intended target audience is.
Well, apart from me, apparently. I feel privileged to have a friend who took one look at something so objectively awful and immediately thought “Dave would love that” – because so help me, I do love it. Unironically, even.
I could imagine this being marketed to boys, but not to adults.
The fact that “Chinook” and “chinstrap” are adjacent to each other in an alphabetical list implies to me that this is a procedurally generated coloring book series with thousands of entries.
Well, of course. Somebody wrote an algorithm to steal photos from Google Image Search and other zero-cost sources, run them through a series of Photoshop filters, and package them up into “coloring books”. They then dumped an alphabetised list of animal names into it and walked away, and human oversight was either too absent or too indifferent to pick up on the fact that all of the top image search results for “chinook” were for aircraft rather than fish – and the result is a shitty colouring book full of deep fried JPEG artifacts with the utterly inexplicable subject matter pairing of cute penguins and military transport helicopters. Like, this is it. This is the inassailable culmination of everything deep-fried memes aspire to be, and it was devised by a brainless machine. We live in the stupidest cyberpunk future, and it is awesome.
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
