Something about the way He is holding the skateboard just tickles my pickle to no end.

Where did you get a six-foot-tall statue of Jesus?

At the six-foot-tall-statue-of-Jesus shoppe.

You should see my decapitated Jesus station of the cross.

Making Jesus hold a skateboard is so eighth grade. May God forgive you all.

Relax Ari, no cookies... just grass jelly and pickled cabbage. This is The Stranger you know.

Viking Jesus is so much better than Regular Jesus.

Making fun of Jews is so totally passé. Only Jews can do it right anyway. Like Sarah Silverman. Go make fun of your own cracker faggot ass, Dan. :>D Oh wait, you do. heh. uh, heh?

I've said it before, and I'll offer again:

I'll be happy to come in and organize things in that office. Eek!

I’ll organize and alphabetize, and you will love it... long time.

People have you guys all wrong. He's just helping get The Word out to today's hard-to-connect-with "x-treme" youth. A new, improved, IN YOUR FACE Jesus is just the ticket!

YOUR Lord and Savior?? Dan, you have no standing...

ha, this reminds me of that time when the columnist lady said that you (Dan) were looking to convert.

Hey, I was raised Catholic. And I'm sensitive too, like Eli.

True desecration would have been putting a pork chop in Christ's mouth. HMMMMM pork chop!!

"...other prominent Jews on the Stranger staff"
How many would that be, exactly? Because we'd all really like to dispel that pernicious notion that the Jews are disproportionately represented in The Media, wouldn't we?

Everyone know that vikings never wore horns on their helms.

@17 - Their loss, because it looks fucking rad.

You meant to write "...harsh fun of whom", right? 'cuz you guys are supposed to be role models and shit. Jesus.

When are you going to start a Hey Hebe! column like the old Savage Love?

Is that January 11-17 issue of The Stranger in the same spot (top of the file cabinet) in both shots? Does that mean this was actually all just thrown together today to make for an "interesting" Slog post?

@21 Now that you mention it, the half a skate board, styro cup, and partially opened file cabinet drawer are all in the first photo, just moved about a bit, kinda like the Savior...(except the file drawer isn't moved, just the angle of the shot). It might appear that Editor Savage needs to hire a new "continuity director" (see the Ari & Andy vs. SOTU gaffe).

Oops! Paper cup.

I scrolled down to that second picture and choked on my bagel. Reminds me of my high school when we regularly put strands of beads and big floppy women's hats on the statue of St. Joseph outside the main entrance.

We didn't take a picture of Jesus when we installed him, but when I wanted to write this post. So we had to strip Him off the t-shirts, tins of food, wind chimes, etc., and return Him to his pristine, pre-desecration state.

But we don't run out and buy six foot tall plaster statues of Jesus just to make interesting blog posts. We turn a profit around here (more than some can say), but we're not Conde Friggin' Nast!

I keep my skateboard on top of a filing cabinet. I hope the druids aren't offended at my desecration of paper, made from trees.

That is the funniest story and pictures!!! Would that we all could work in an office like that.
Isn't it considered appropriate and constitutional for one minority to offend another minority? Oh wait, what about a double minority like a gay jewish person? Dan, you're white but a single minority....Now if Eli is Jewish and Gay then no, you cannot begat him with anti semetic statements or actions, nor may you ridicule his homosexuality, but he in turn can call you a fag. See how that works? Its the Old Testament-Moses's law(which Eli will relate to...)addage, an eye for an eye.....your(his and yours)eyes dont match so I say you are the hipster he was referring to.
(I'm a fag by the way and you(Dan)and I can say that to each other)
