Aight, Part 2

Artificial Imaginary FTW!

FTW, or "For the Win", was common Internet parlance for years, but I realize that I haven't heard it so much recently. Maybe it's a generational thing, and new phrases have replaced it. To my knowledge, the phrase comes from "The Hollywood Squares", which was popular in the late-90s with Tom Bergeron. It had made a comeback a decade earlier with John Davidson, but that was before the sudden rise of the Internet in the average home.

As with the first image from yesterday, which was already posted before I even begun work on this image, I will unlikely ever be able to reuse these characters except as a stock image. I could manipulate it in small ways. If you look at Michele's left ear (viewer's left), you'll notice that the hair around the earring is a little off. That's because she only had one earring, so I duplicated the other and colored in the hair around it.

These characters are definitely easier on the eyes. Speaking of eyes, Ken still came up with glasses. I was going to make a circumference joke but nothing good came to mind.

Giving Michele the math-y punchline about the square root of -1 amused me, so I went with that.
