Yesterday I wrote of my love for Edward Hopper. Today, Slog tipper Preston sent this along:

What's it take to get a hi-res version of this? Or a link to one?

This seems like the start of a new cyber genre "LOLhopper"

Come on, like those plastic chairs would break glass...

Anteaters have surprisingly large and powerful claws. Their forearms are strong enough to rip into dead wood to find ants and termites. Once I poked one with a stick and it made almost exactly that pose.

Seriously, you do not fuck with the anteater.

I’m really hoping “Aggro, Possibly Drunk Anteater Invading Classic Works of Art to F Stuff Up” becomes the hot new internet meme.

Think of the possibilities.

This is a photoshopped version of Banksy's alteration on Nighthawks here.

See what hip hop night attracts?

You know, I can honestly say that the image of a giant pink anteater throwing plastic chairs through the window of a classic painting never once crossed my mind until this very moment.

Thanks, Slog!

Dude... anteater's all like "Whut? Whut?"

Are we sure this was photoshopped?

I have proof that anteaters existed in the 14th century when Hopper painted this.
