Not bad like "bad" but bad like "c'mon man why even take a picture of that?" posted by tuck_nroll at 4:04 PM on May 28, 2010

God damn I love postcards, the worse the better. Thank you for posting this! posted by cog_nate at 4:16 PM on May 28, 2010
It's a Post. But printed on a paper Card. Handwritten on back by people you know who tell of new and interesting things. Years later it became known as "Metafilter". posted by hal9k at 4:16 PM on May 28, 2010 [1 favorite]
I'm the proud owner of an original The World's Largest Cheese postcard (not the *haughty sniff* reproduction). Some people would call that a bad postcard but really it is simply the most awesome postcard in the world. posted by mudpuppie at 4:27 PM on May 28, 2010
That Dino one is the best thing I've seen on the internet all day.
And no, I don't need to get out more, thank you. posted by marxchivist at 4:54 PM on May 28, 2010

Why on Earth is Jack Ruby shooting Rowan Atkinson? posted by brundlefly at 5:42 PM on May 28, 2010
Did anyone else think that was Mr. Bean instead of Oswald at first, or was that just me? posted by Earthtopus at 5:45 PM on May 28, 2010
I think you mean Awesome postcards. posted by cashman at 5:59 PM on May 28, 2010
This is the umpteenth Tumblr blog I've seen dedicated to the on-line preservation of awesome pre-internet kitsch (many of which are Previously on MeFi, but my Google-fu is failing me right now); no, make that the gazillionth. It seems like what Tumblr was made for and is such a Good Thing, I'm willing to forgive them that awful Web2.0www name. Are they giving away free scanners to potential kitsch-bloggers?
And I'd be willing to start rumors that Rowan Atkinson is Lee Harvey Oswald's illegitimate son, but LHO is just a little over 15 years older than Mr. Bean (Oct. '39 vs. Jan. '55)... posted by oneswellfoop at 6:28 PM on May 28, 2010
Why is the piggy one bad? Because it's slightly blurry? posted by kyrademon at 6:30 PM on May 28, 2010
Yeah, that's a mighty graceful pig. posted by BitterOldPunk at 7:47 PM on May 28, 2010
Thank you, brundlefly, I was in a state of stunned confusion about that. Glad I'm not the only one who saw the resemblance. posted by Stunt at 10:08 PM on May 28, 2010
Ditto, brundlefly. Scooped by three minutes; I got caught up on the Wikipedia page looking up the name of Mr. Bean's girlfriend. posted by Earthtopus at 10:25 PM on May 28, 2010

If I may venture a guess, it's because a pig leaping into water from a rock was judged a suitable postcard for a water park. It's just the weirdness of the idea. posted by JHarris at 10:57 PM on May 28, 2010
The "Quacky" link, the "Piggy" link and the "Kill it with fire" link show up as errors for me. posted by Secret Life of Gravy at 5:41 AM on May 29, 2010
