∄: May 2011

So I've had this folder in my computer for a while called 'comparisons' with about 15 images. Today, the idea behind it ran wild in me and it has expanded to 50, allowing me to waste lots of time in the best possible way on the internet. So what is this folder? Well its about winning, but not Charlie Sheen style. Essentially, once you have seen the light, you realise that there are two ways of doing things - the right way, and the terribly wrong way. Unfortunately, only certain people are gifted enough to do things the right way, but even those who can't and have come to know this painful fact nevertheless try. This is a gallery of failures, both on the part of the blissfully ignorant and the sorrowfully learned, followed by the victors showing how it is done. (the images come in a series of loser/winner pairs)

A brief disclaimer before we commence; apart from the fact that no-one ever reads this blog and even if they did the likelihood of coincidence is incredibly minor, should one see an image in their likeness here, know that this post is merely in jest and that I acknowledge winning is not everything - one can still have fun by trying ;)

Ok so a few miscellaneous ones to warm up:

Doin it rong

Doin it rite

Trying to beat them at their own game = doin it rong

doin i~ ..... eh.

here you think they might be doin it rite...

...but then you see that they weren't

Now we're into trying to win part one:

valiant but failed effort to do it rite

masterclass in doin it rite

ok you're trying to do it rong here i swear

riter, but not the ritest i've ever seen

keeping it simple can still mean doin it rong

"i got this".

doin it rong, celebrity megane version

fffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff

Segue into nekos:

doin it rong, but perhaps for the sentimental lolz

neko koneko does it rite

Sports:

you probably aren't even aware of rite and rong, so I can't blame you for this one...

...but learn by example, this is how to do it rite

Technology:

anon does it rong...

...whereas this guy never posts, but does it rite

this exemplifies rong

hello kitty goes in every field = full marks

Transport - for all the non-believers, this is a really good example free from any arguments about selecting unrepresentative individuals to make a point about a group.

doin it, ..., somehow rong

ok this is actually a train hijack by ikea for advertising their furniture , but the idea is so cool that its doin it rite

i dont even know wat they're doin here...

...but it wasn't anything to do with this

doin it grungy

so little difference in reality, so much difference on the rite scale

this guy seems to think that someone has done it rite...

...but these folk know better

meanwhile in Penrith...

...sometimes we have to wonder, how do they do it so rite

welcome to cityrong

done rite for the kodomos

Foods:

doin it dull, but if subway is your other option...

...or you could learn to do it rite (good luck)

doin it with the army (they always get it rong)...

...NERV get it rong sometimes too i suppose, but this isn't an example

Trying to win, part two:

so rong its rite

but then you see this, and you feel for the subjects above, you really do

left of photo (from our perspective) actually came close...

ohsorite

it appears that this person was winning at other types of games, why they had to try their hand at this one, i do not know...

...maybe they hadn't seen what they had to compete with

So now to finish I'm comparing two very different things, but I see a strong resemblance in the concept. The rong version (scene) came much later in fact, and I doubt it knows anything about its rite counterpart (ganguro), but nevertheless its time to criticise anyway
