It's taken in the context of the movie <i>V for Vendetta</i> (or the graphic novel if you're of a literary bent) and is used on 4chan.org (specifically the /b/ forum) as a cover-all mask to protect the identity and proclaim membership as a /b/tard (aka Anonymous). It's a membership badge, like a Guardian Angels' red beret (do those guys still actually wear them?) or an MC's cut(the jacket proclaiming membership). <br /><br />While all too many anons are leftist or even outright socialist, a great many of them are conservative. These are the same guys that were giving the $cientologists apoplexia. And while not an actual organization (more of an anarchistic free association) they have been known do do some fantastic things (saving people's lives, tracking and reporting animal abusers and pedophiles), as well as some hilariously dreadful things (Ordering 30 pizzas for delivery to your house, sending online nudes of people to their family, friends and places of business). It's something like a hunderd thousand vindictive Jiminy Crickets with ADD. Kind of cool, and not a little frighteningBryan Reavishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07775461442776693282noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24325419.post-88147055039535367032011-12-13T11:04:34.720-07:002011-12-13T11:04:34.720-07:00You certainly have a point about Guido and Che.You certainly have a point about Guido and Che.Thudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18320037763190473684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24325419.post-72328074484636402412011-12-12T12:34:30.157-07:002011-12-12T12:34:30.157-07:00They don't know anything about Che or Fawkes, ...They don't know anything about Che or Fawkes, but they can tell you Washington owned slaves.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12233952035412897500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24325419.post-44058688263527685882011-12-11T11:20:24.639-07:002011-12-11T11:20:24.639-07:00Those flowers are beautiful.

We've had a pretty mild fall, so I can't complain.

The roof you are referring to is indeed modeled after a barn; it is my neighbor's tool shed.
