Last night, those Pesky neighbors came here for dinner. I put Perry’s standing rib roast in the oven to warm and fixed other sides. For dessert, I made an AMAZING knock-off of Starbucks Cranberry Bliss Bars. (You can get the recipe and see the finished product here on shelleyerwin.com.)
I took one photo.
It was obviously taken after the cleanup, missing the spread of yummy goodness. Being my creative self (ha!), I pulled the photo in Photoshop and told the AI generator to make the background into ‘the last supper.’
Photoshop AI delivered:
All of a sudden, that single photo sort of gave me a spook! It looks like a bunch of ghosts are gathered to eat some headless piece of slithering flesh. Multiple ears appear on heads where they don’t belong and eye placements are ghoulish.
Mom and Carl were untouched by AI, but it appears their expressions have morphed into wary discomfort. Indigestion? Maybe… but it’s more the look of dreaded resolve for the fate that awaits them.
I quickly attempted to get them to a different location!
Like in the movie, Everything, Everywhere, All at Once, I pulled them to an alternate universe to escape their plight. I chose a place with serene snow, but one of those ghastly turds traveled with them!
There he is — they can’t seem to shake the faceless dude with blobs for hands. And it appears as if they’ve set up a base station equipped with some sort of communication and sound system to help the others cross over too. You can’t leave those Pesky Neighbors alone for 5 minutes. 🙄
Now you know: The Irish flag is green white and orange because green represents Roman Catholics in the country, orange represents Protestants and white represents the peace between them.
