They Walk Among Us

These sinister stickers from 6th Avenue station seem to suggest that actors, accountants and even journalists are not human. It’s either a warning message sent back in time by John Connor . . . or some talented sticker-making satirists.

The proportionality of the cyborg eye vis-a-vis Jason Sudeikis’s face is a particularly nice touch.

The suggestion that newscasters are secretly cyborgs is unsettlingly credible.

This sticker was discovered on the L line. It’s particularly appropriate for tax season, when all of us feel at the mercy of some inhuman machine . . .

If anyone knows anything about these clever little stickers, please get in touch with us!

I spotted this little pixelated banana man at Greenpoint Avenue on the G the other day. What I find really astonishing is that this was completely handmade with a razor and colored tape. (see detail below) Update: I should have known, this was made by Poster Boy.

If you are not familiar with this particular internet meme, you can watch the original video after the jump. more »
