Presenting the Do-It-Yourself Demotivational Poster Generator<\/a><\/p>\n

Dave and I have always gotten a kick out of those motivational posters, such as this one:<\/p>\n

But we get MORE of a kick out of the parodies on the motivational posters. This one was framed in Dave’s office in Florida.<\/p>\n

Sure, folks have tried to make up their own, and you get something like this one below, which is from the USJFCOM Joint Warfighting Center in Suffolk, VA. Framed, hanging up on the wall. I couldn’t even go into this room with a straight face. I did a lot of Reserve work in the room with this poster in 2006 and 2007. There was a series of posters featuring different facets of military capability: “Intelligence”, “Operations”, “Logistics”. While I’m honored that someone thought to include “Meterology”, I wish someone had consulted a spell-checker first.
I didn’t add that Post-It note, someone else did:

With the link I’ve shown above, you can upload a picture of your choice, then add your own title and catch-phrase. Then you can e-mail the poster to friends, save a JPG of the poster to your hard drive, and you can even order an 11 x 14 of the poster for about $12!<\/p>\n

Enjoy my latest creations.<\/p>\n
