Why would you not just link to the site?

Also, the original original source is Jacob Wrestling with the Angel by Gustave Doré.

I did "just link to the site"—note the URL I linked—but "I gratefully accept the rebuke," to steal from Mr. Dawkins.

What the hell is that story really about, anyway? That story has always confused me.

Sounds like somebody is having an psychotic episode. Poor thing.

I usually downvote or ignore pic posts in sub-reddits that I think should be for discussion/argument but this made me laugh so hard I woke of the other half.

I hate you.

I would down vote this, as I do with all reposts I run across, but this is the first time I've seen it in color, and rather like it, so good on you, have an up vote.

This is one of my favorites.
