Hey, those were neat. I once saw someone had done a version of The Last Supper, but with Jesus and the Apostles. I like a good laugh, but I thought that was going a little far. posted by L. Fitzgerald Sjoberg at 5:46 PM on March 22 [5 favorites]
I try to make every supper my "last" supper.
But then I binge at midnight and it's hard to see my feet. posted by Dizzy at 7:00 PM on March 22
The inside cover of the Painters and Dockers album Kiss My Art has quite a neat Last Supper re-enactment.
I'll be absolutely buggered if I can find a link to a pic (too obscure, too oldskool)… but here is a youtube.com link to their most famous song Die Yuppie Die, where it is at least *talked about* in the comments section. :)
Damnit, and here I was getting all fangirl-giddy over the BSG version. Nothing new under the sun, and all that. posted by Saellys at 7:50 PM on March 22
Judas was a betrayer, yes?
Then I nominate every single sockpuppet out there.
All of 'em.
If they don't have the courage to snark under their own (user)names,
they just betray themselves, babe! posted by Dizzy at 7:52 PM on March 22
EXCELLENT question Marxchivist!
I agree.
Off the top of my head I'd go with paris parismus (sp?) and quonsar (sp?). No real reason. Just regular, controversial Mefites that sorta disappeared. Not Judas in the stict definition of being a Judas.
If I'm thinking of the correct quonsar. I remember reading his site where he stated he was nevarr going to post on metafilter.com again. But I could be getting missed up.)
I will be one of the two chicks serving the drinks. posted by uncanny hengeman at 8:00 PM on March 22
Damn, I almost posted this.
Sorry, loq, you snooze you lose. And I was half expecting to be called out for a double with some obscurely worded previous post.
Do last suppers generally end well?
Well, splitting the bill always goes badly, and those who are about to be crucified are notoriously bad tippers (they may ultimately be resurrected, but they know they're never coming back to the same restaurant again).
Still waiting for a "LOST Supper" myself. posted by wendell at 8:01 PM on March 22
Excellent, Wendell, thanks.
The collection is fantastic.
I read all the stories.
Barker tells them with a direct and funny style.
Overall, great riff on our culture. posted by bru at 8:06 PM on March 22
Naw babe, not the right lady. posted by LiveLurker at 8:10 PM on March 22
The best one is definitely the zombie supper. I mean: nothing says Easter like an undead dude who offers you his own flesh and blood to nosh on. posted by anotherpanacea at 8:36 PM on March 22 [1 favorite]
And the comments here include mine, so suck it. :D posted by puke & cry at 8:39 PM on March 22
Someone really needs to do this with Mefites. Who would be Judas?
mr president dr steve elvis america would do it just for the attention posted by pyramid termite at 8:41 PM on March 22
"Naw babe, not the right lady."
I did not SAY that!
Fuck sockpuppets! The 'evil' ones are taking over our TRUE fake identities! posted by LiveLurker at 8:49 PM on March 22
Some esoteric interpretations of the crucifixion put Judas as the true lamb of God. In order to undergo his final purification, he had to take the blame and rancor of the entire Christian Community. See J.G. Bennett for more info. posted by Burhanistan at 8:54 PM on March 22
Are you kidding?
The REAL Dizzy is in Montreal this weekend. I'm his fucking Shorthair Tabby. posted by Dizzy at 8:55 PM on March 22

Souvlaki for sure, at the Metafilter cafe. Roasted lamb, on a skewer, over rice. posted by LiveLurker at 11:10 PM on March 22
The first one that came to mind was the banner at The Petite Claudine. (some NSFW images sometimes, although currently the first bit of nudity occurs way after the fold.) I kind of hoped it would appear on the list because I'd like to find out more about it. posted by HE Amb. T. S. L. DuVal at 11:15 PM on March 22
May I suggest we substitute whipped up sweet cream for that sour cream in the cucumber sauce? posted by LiveLurker at 11:17 PM on March 22
On postview, the all Japanese schoolgirl version is included in wendell's MORE link in his comment. That link is almost superior to the FPP one, IMHO. I didn't think that the commentary was very insightful and there were repeats. Perhaps he has not the google-fu of our wendell. posted by HE Amb. T. S. L. DuVal at 11:20 PM on March 22
