Gadgets with FACES #129: An electric toothbrush of unknown brand

Not so keen on this one, it's certainly no bag-faced Dennis Hopper, but we can't not use such a comprehensive photo story - especially as some half-decent Photoshop work was carried out to provide a rudimentary punchline to the piece.



"Thank you for uploading the Golden Power batteries. I had no idea they were such a well known (and eclectic) brand. Anyway, this time I offer you a gadget with a face."



"And it’s not just any face. It’s famous. And it’s rather fearful. A bit like an investment banker walking through a council estate in the Midlands. It's the back of an electric toothbrush... err... brush. This poor blighter has to go in my mouth twice a day. No wonder he looks scared and appalled."



"Anyway, he reminded me of something. So after a bit of technical jiggery pokery I managed to match the ‘face’ to the place. And here, courtesy of Edward Munch is our friend in his better known habitat" - Jon.

I don't think the museum appreciates you sawing a toothbrush shaped hole in their painting just for this joke, man.

You better go back and apologize. Those paint-thingies don't come cheap, after all.

So now we know what happened to that painting when it got nicked. Not for personal gain or just something to look at in the bog. It was for here !

Sedgen ? Is that a character from the new Star Trek film ?
