The standard "Is this a pigeon?" butterfly anime meme, but the guy is saying, "Is this giants?" And hovering above his hand is a bubble with a photo of John Linnell and John Flansburgh of the band They Might Be Giants.

The "Is this a pigeon?" butterfly meme but he’s saying, "Is this recursion?" and hovering above his hand is a whole copy of the meme and so forth until it’s too small to see. But if you’re reading this description, I’ll tell you a secret: the last one is still the original butterfly. So it’s recursive, but not infinitely.

Watercolor drawing. A detective ponders a crime scene. There is a chalk outline on the floor and red splashes. The perpetrator has written "Your Next" in red on the wall. (But it’s with the possessive "your" instead of what was presumably intended: "you’re", the contraction for "you are"). Below the drawing is some text that has what the literal-minded detective is saying to himself: "My next what?"

A box of my special 'Constants and Comments' tea - a parody of the Bigelow Constant Comment tea. Has Don Knuth on the box top and various silly jokes.

Bargain Target. Jaggy vector graphic of an angry opossum with the Target dog’s red "bull’seye" marking around its eye. Text reads "barget", like "target" but with a letter B.
