Thank you so very much! I spit coffee on my keyboard and I am glad.
This is really great! (Referred from Boing Boing)

Thanks!

Can you *seriously* make a cafepress site for these? I would love to buy this on a t-shirt. Or can I have permission to make a t-shirt for personal use?
Unfortunately, I think the people in my office who make the PowerPoint presentations for us to watch actually kill kittens themselves.
Thank you for the joy you shared with this art!

You probably are as well, so check out this great wallpaper. I don’t know how I feel about their use of Gill Sans, but I do very much agree with the sentiment. Click the link, you’ll see what I mean.

Hilarious. I want a t-shirt.
Does the same hold for Keynote or OpenOffice?
Mark,

“Save wildlife – Kill a cat” = “Save wildlife – Use Powerpoint”
[...] PowerPoint maker: you’ll spend your days making PowerPoint presentations, with many slides, and many of those presentations won’t be used in the end. The presentations will be used in meetings where 90% of the invited people don’t care about what you have to say, and the 10% that should be interested won’t attend. (beware, this basic job leads to death of kittens) [...]
