One year ago today I created what is today Guenthercorp. In a long tradition of other sites I've designed over the years, Guenthercorp is by far the best. One day I'll feature links to the old ones: Phlogiston and Poindexter's Club.
The site has been updated after a two month hiatus and I've worked hard to redesign the title page... the white on black page quickly lost its flare. Also 1337speak has lost its renewed old school appeal.
But as I promised... its time for off the wall craziness.
My expose on the graucho glasses. Sure its a staple "disguise" but do we really know the implications of such a gag item? Its easily compared to the fake vomit, the fart machine, and even the rubber chicken.
The thick black glasses are the most subtle part of this look. Perhaps this a parody of the nerd... sans the thick tape fixing the bridge. However if someone noticed this and customized it with tape... pure comedic gold.
The fake nose is perhaps the first thing you notice. Its supposed to be a deep red color so it won't possibly match the user's skin tone. The clash in hue is another important section of its comedic charm.
Fake eyebrows... you know the big thick ones are great.
Yeah that was pretty lame
