What is going on in the bottom left there Pattinson?

The other morning some were saying they couldn't see a peen in this drawing. Well...
If you can't see a peen in this drawing, then you ain't ever been with a man. At least you've never been with a man with a peen. Not that there's anything wrong with that as were all god's children. But what would be the point?
I also see a big set a lips and a long tongue.
And Laverne's L from Laverne & Shirley.
And I also see a very warped and wicked mind at work.
I love you Robert Pattinson. My brilliant, fucking, twisted, beautiful boy.
You are one of a fucking kind.

Yup, my eye went right there and I thought naw, couldn't be what I think I'm seeing, but ain't no denying it. There's a lot going on here, but damn if I'm gonna try to figure it out. Warped, wicked, and infinitely fascinating mind our boy has!
I can't wait to find out how much it goes for.

I think its intended as a 'self-portrait.' And that's all I'm saying..;)

- nikola6 said...
I also see rosebuds (and I don't mean flowers) and swimmers (and I don't mean ones with Olympic medals).
The other day I said this thing was about sex. And it is. But it's more than that. It's also about reproduction.
Look closer. Really look at it.
Although I haven't had any coffee yet. And after I do, I might come back here and see something entirely different...a depiction of his knitting club during choir practice.
Nah. Don't think so ladies.
Although it is art and therefore open to interpretation.

Dude cracks me up. I mean honestly...WTF??? And if you can't see peen in this, then you don't know what a peen looks like.
Oh man, this really made me lol.

LOL, now ladies, it could be a balloon, and the next line over just got unfortunately close?
Right. I know. It's a peen.

- May 27, 2010 at 1:18 PM
- sarsaparilla said...
As mentioned by Kate , Gozde, may be the artist could explain himself so that we know what was the thinking invloved ( as they do in preschool- child explain away what those squiggly lines they represented ), other wise it is open to interpretation. More then art teachers , I think psycologist would have a fieldday with this artwork.
- May 27, 2010 at 1:19 PM

@sarsaparilla I hope that you dont think he has problems

- nikola6 said...
Yeah. He's got nookie on the brain allright. Well. He's a guy. But I'm beginning to wonder if what some of us were talking about the other night might actually be true.
I think he might have 'baby' on the brain. It just seems like in the past 6 months or so, he's made references (both direct and veiled) to...well...the idea of...baby. Although. Maybe he's just thinking about playing daddies on screen this year in WFE and BD.
Who the hell knows what is going on in that original thinking mind of his?
I'm a pretty good conversationalist. Well read. Know some of a wide variety of interests. Able to express my thoughts and opinions with some intelligence and clarity with one or two original ideas of my own and I'm telling you...
This kid would leave me so far back in the dust. I really don't think I could keep up with him.
He's a true original and in this 'go along' modern, fake world of ours...that is a fucking miracle.
I said the other day that I am not starstruck by Rob Pattinson. And I'm not (I'm not starstruck by anyone except Obama). But I am 'awestruck' by him.
He's always surprising me. And god. That is so rare. You follow someone rather closely for nearly two years and you think you've got 'em a little bit pegged. But not where Rob is concerned. I never know what he's gonna say or do next. Isn't that fucking amazing?
I know I joke about wondering what it would be like to have sex with him (oaky. sometimes I'm not joking). But truthfully? Just one day. One day to spend...just talking to him. Really talking.

@Fae007--Waving hello!
Oh and, TGC is here, too. ;-)
@Rob's Bitch--That is priceless. I love it.
- May 27, 2010 at 1:35 PM
- Fae007 said...
Or this is an impregnation drawn here or he just made it look like that to mess with everyone and make us see that!
Either way, he is brilliant! :)
- May 27, 2010 at 1:36 PM
- sarsaparilla said...
Absolutely not, he does not have any problem -Psycologist also delve in normal mind.
- May 27, 2010 at 1:36 PM
Urgh...seriously it's great he did it for charity, but why is he listed as one of the top 100 most influential people? He's done nothing influential. Nothing.At.All.
- May 27, 2010 at 1:37 PM
- Fae007 said...
Hi CL!
Oh hi TGC! :)
- May 27, 2010 at 1:38 PM

@sarsaparilla he has just a different thinking way and he is so brilliant but some people just not see this but we are seeing arent we?
- May 27, 2010 at 1:39 PM
It's nice, it looks like Jean Cocteau's work... Naive and pure! I love it !

- Ana73 said...
Hi everyone-
i am with alot of you WTF. but dont you just love the thought that he actually sat done and did this for charity. i actually dont think that too much thought went into drawing this. i love everyone's interpretations, i think rob's bitch is the best one LOL.
- May 27, 2010 at 1:41 PM
- HeneciaD said...
@ana yeah I like what Robsbitch said too it made me laugh and agree with you its just so good to see him in this kind of things
- May 27, 2010 at 1:45 PM
- sarsaparilla said...
I agree, not much thinking was done for this drawing, it is suggestive of a lot of things -as I said before -open to interpretations.The good thing is he did it for charity for children , it self is a sweet gesture.
- May 27, 2010 at 1:45 PM
- Ana73 said...
OT - i just started another FF yesterday and love it...humor/love/lots of lemons, i have been reading so much angst lately that this was a nice break.
- May 27, 2010 at 1:46 PM
- Fae007 said...
After all the charity is for kids and I see a little baby in the blue. :)
- May 27, 2010 at 1:46 PM
- RTP_KJS_Lover said...
Okay, so I guess Rob and his mom created this together. Is that correct? That changes things. I still see a peen, but not in the way I was before.
@Ana73--Waving hello
@sissidelyon--Comment avez-vous été? Je ne t'ai pas vu ici depuis un certain temps.
- May 27, 2010 at 1:51 PM

Right, peen is there just as a symbol of giving life! :)

- MsTaurus14 said...
I went and had a 2nd look at our boy's "artwork", at first I thought...what a bloody mess...all scribbles..but now that I've had that 2nd look....ok...yep.. I now definitely see, 1 peen, (bit deformed looking, but yeah, ok, it's art right) 1 set of lips with tongue sticking out, and the "L", have no idea what the significance of that would be, but yeah, I agree with Nik, there seems to be a hint of swimming tadpoles and all sorts of things that may elude to "baby stuff"..mmmm...that boy never ceases to amaze me in more ways than one....but then everything is open to interpertation, ya neva know, and because of that...it could be just a bunch of scribbling, and if it is....I guess we'd be reading WAY to much into this artwork of his LOL!!!
- May 27, 2010 at 1:54 PM
- nikola6 said...
I had a problem with that most influential thing too. But then I realized...
I confusing influential with important. Now is Rob important to his fans? Of course he is. Were concerned with his happiness and safety as much as with his career. But is he important in terms of the world at large? Does he have the responsibility for or is he making decisions that are affecting people's lives? No. He is not.
But is he influential? Yeah. He is.
Maybe not in 'important' ways, but in this pop culture? Yeah. He is.
It's my own personal opinion that it is HE, not Kristen, not Taylor, not even Stephenie Meyer's books that is fueling the worldwide hysteria surrounding this franchcise which has translated into billions of dollars with more to come. That's influence.
Does he influence fashion? Yup. I see more 'wild' hair on young men now, not to mention more beanies and plaid (I see those on women too).
If people find out Rob is reading a certain book, how many run out to get that book. How many people have Heineken in their fridge right this minute? (I don't 'cause I drank all mine. but I've been drinking those babies before Rob Pattinson was gleam in his daddy's eye. And no, I don't have Hot Pockets 'cause I think they're disgusting but I do eat Cinnamon Toast Crunch 'cause it's in my Top 10 of desert cereals and has been for years).
And I could list many more the things, but bottom line...he most definitely is influential.
He's not saving the world. But what he's about is having an impact on people and that is having influence.
Just an opinon.
- May 27, 2010 at 1:55 PM
- Ana73 said...
Hi CL :))
so here is a thought...at the press junkets coming up, someone should get a reporter to ask him, what exactly he was thinking as he drew this...and then we could hear his thoughts.

Fae007, I see a baby in blue also! I totally think this artwork is about reproduction.

off topic
@nicola6- I have just read the thread "*Enhanced* Pics of Robert Pattinson from Cannes 2009" where you have been asked about your meeting with Rob at Comic Con . There is a link to your story-3:13 AM(in case you still haven't found it)
When someone will ask you about it once again just give them this link. I hope it helps :-)
- May 27, 2010 at 2:05 PM
- nikola6 said...
Wait. Rob did this with his mother? THIS particular drawing? Or did his mother also participate in this charity in some way?
And didn't I just read here that his mother said she was longing for grandchildren? (I personally wouldn't know what his mother would be thinking about this subject as I can't recall there ever being anything that specific about her put up on this blog).
But if so...hmmm. Plot thickens.
Run Kristen Run.

I also had read on another site that Rob's mother helped with the artwork on this....so...IDK. I was looking at it again, and I'm seeing a face, somewhat in the center, big round eyes, the right having blue around it, who knows really, just him, if he read any of these posts he's probably have a good laugh over what we think we see!!!

- nikola6 said...
Now this is a thread worthy of 300 or more comments. Trying to delve into that sick, twisted, psyche of his.
What am I saying? This isn't complicated. Nothing complicated here. As simple as it gets. He's a man. And he drew...
* a peen (FIRST AND FOREMOST)
* a rosebud
* feminine shaped lips and an extented tongue (in the direction of the peen)
* eggs
* swimmers
* and a fetus
Nothing complicated here. Just primal.
What is man's greatest instinct?
To survive.
1. find something to eat (no, not THAT. that's for dessert. lol)
2. find some shelter
3. find something to mate with and reproduce
And that ladies and gents is how the species survives.
Nothing complicated here.
Don't need 300 posts.

The definition of "influential" is someone of great power, influence, and someone who is effective. It's also someone of considerable importance. Rob is none of those traits. He's a mediocre actor who got a lot of buzz because everyone thinks he's hot. Sure he's hot...I will admit that but that is all he has go going for him right now. But influential? People get real. How has he made an impact? I mean really? He's not that great of an actor.
Sure he'll sign something so it can be auctioned off but he has done nothing to be considered influential. He doesn't deserve that title. The only reason he got it is because he's a pretty face and a million girl LOVE him. They're nothing but sheep.
I haven't seen the whole Influential list, but I am sure at least half of those people don't deserve to be on there. Rob is one that definitly doesn't belong/deserve to be on it.
But I'm done lol

Just came back.
This is to address Sacch- He has done nothing other then starring in the most popular movies (TW1,Tw2),still he is influential, he has not thrown his weight (not literary), cashed on the popularity to influence the society, that only goes to show
- the measure of this man.

Oh Denise...
I think he'd be on the floor laughing. Why not? This is hilarious.
And ya know. If he were gonna pick a day to come visit the internet, wouldn't you think that with the release of this artwork, that he might be curious as to what people are saying about it? I mean. The man is not without ego. And who knows, he just might be lurking around here (not just here HERE, but 'all over').
I think it's a possibility. And if he does wander by here HERE...
Rob? Rob honey? ROBERT???
I think you're a fucking little genius and a weirdo extrodinare (as most fucking little geniuses are wont to be).
Don't ever change.

And I still think that chick is getting influential mixed up with important. All kinds of stupid, still shit is influential. Hell. TV commercials are influential. But they ain't important.
And this thing pissed her off cause you can tell she's not a Rob fan in the first place.
No worries. 'Cause I'll bet my fangirl foot can kick her non-fangirl ass clear across three parking lots. Not that I would. But I could.

Hell. Some have even told me that I influence them around here with some of my comments. And if so, I won't lie, that is very flattering. But it sure as hell don't make me important. Meaning, if I never posted another word, the blog would go on.
Influential. Important.
Different words. Different meanings. And yes, very subtle differences which is why I think this has gotten misinterpreted by some. I did it. Until I stopped and thought about it.
Why am I talking about this when there is a peen drawn by his own hand gracing the front page of this blog?

Wow, could he have spent more than five minutes on it? It's for charity, after all. Maybe some different colors? Maybe fill in the space a little more? His art teacher would give him an F. Booo. I hate it. I would not spend 400 dollars on this scribbling. Shame on Rpatz. I would have put more effort into it. So you all can flame me but you know I'm right.

- nikola6 said...
Oh my god.
Look to the right of the peen. There is a shape there, lying on it's side and tell me that's not the shape of a female pelvis. And look closer and you'll see an ovary.
It is. This is about reproduction and therefore, there isn't anything naughty here. It's actually quite beautiful and he does have some talent as an artist.
He needs to keep drawing and maybe even take up painting.

I'm going to stick with my theory that this is Rob's version of the Rorschach inkblot test. You see what you want.
I think it's awesome he did this for such a great cause. I hope it makes a ton of money! Very cool that his mom was involved too

I think Rob knows this LOL.
All joking aside I think Nik is right, it's a child charity (I think) so reproduction would be a good topic to draw.

Girls I used to be part of a group therapy once based on art. We didn't talk about our problems we just drew pictures whatever crossed our minds. The ourtakes were sometimes so enligheting about our personalities that many times we burst in tears or even sob.
Trust me there is no such think as meaningless scribbling.

Totally disagree Twilight.
But then non-artistic people don't tend to 'get' art. They think most of it is bullshit. They don't even understand the meaning of the word.
And you can NEVER explain artistic expression to somone who doesn't get it. Either you do. Or you don't.
Kinda like comic timing. Either you haven't it or you don't. And it cannot be taught.
I think this little drawing of his is pretty amazing. I'd frame it and hang it in the house before I would a picture of him (which I don't have any of hanging up in the house. nothing wrong with it. just haven't done it. but I did buy two copies of that Details magazine 'cause I think that cover shot is so Fifty and I'm seriously thinking of framing and hanging that one).

I see the peen. It made me LOL for sooo long because all I saw at first was a balloon.
Now I also see everything everyone else is talking about, (baby, lips and tongue, swimmers, etc) but I also see a couple of faces that are facing profile, blowing out smoke from their mouths. I also see a lot of -_- faces. AHAH
Oh Rob.
I want to see you get all flustered explaining this piece. =]

@twilight: NO, you are not right. It's a DONATION. You don't tell people how much they have to donate. You ASK them, nicely. And Rob and his mum responded and gave a fun doodle piece - and now it's not enough...Why is it whatever Rob does or gives or shares is not enough? This has pissed me off - yeah, I know I should ignore it. I'll go - but Hell's bloody bells...

Perhaps Twilight thought maybe he could have put more thought and time into it. It does seem like he did it just to get it over with. I mean if you're going to do something like that for charity and have it auctioned off..then put more thought into it..make it meaningful to the person that would actually bid on a piece of paper.

Look at the penis. Move your eyes to the right. There is a shape there, LYING ON IT'S SIDE (turn your comp screen if you have to in order to see it right side up). It is the shape of a female pelvis. There is an ovary shape just exactly where an ovary shape would be.
And someone just made the observation that this is for a children's charity. I believe, for missing children. And he decided to do a surrealistic interpretation of reproduction.
It's beautiful. I can 'see' it now. And I won't joke about it anymore.
I would love to have the original.
But I'll make do with a reproduction (Okay. I just made a joke).
And I am going to frame and hang this in my home. Those who know me will understand why I've fallen in love with this after I tell them what it represents; fertility, reproduction. Things that were taken from me before their purposes was served. Things I mourn.

- lallieb said...
@Nik, do you think the reason that Rob is throwing more curve balls lately, continuing to surprise us when we thought we had him pegged, is due to his maturing, feeling more comfortable and confident in his own skin, thus not so guarded (or paranoid) about revealing bits of himself. I'm thinking this may in part be due to the work he's been getting and his relationship with the girl. I have noticed a difference in interviews, thankfully not too big a one, from those he gave 2 years ago.
- May 27, 2010 at 3:46 PM
- nikola6 said...
How could you or anyone else tell, JUST BY LOOKING AT IT, how much thought or time he put into it?
He could have thought about this for a week or two and torn up dozens of attempts before he got what he wanted. Or yeah. He could have scribbled it out in five minutes as a joke.
A joke to all of the women on the internet who are obsessed with his cock and always going off about their squeeling ovaries and his impregnating stares.
Now that I think of it...

I didn't say that he DIDN'T put time and thought into it, but I said it SEEMS like it. There is a difference right there.
But to be honest..this is Rob we are talking about..meaning he probably did do this in just 5 minutes.
I mean I do agree that it's great he did this for charity I do. But people...don't bid on it...make a donation out of the goodness of your heart instead of paying too much money for a piece of paper that looks like a 3 year old drew. Just saying.

I do believe Rob has influence on how we spend our money whether it is for charity or selling magazines, he influences how we spend our money on anything associated with him. Why do you think more magazines have him on the cover because it sells, why do you think George Clooney wanted him for his telethon, more money for charity. He may not think he is influential in the ways of polictics, science, and culture but he influences us to a degree on how we choose to spend our money on anything associated with Robert. We purchase tickets to see his movies, we spend money on anything with his gorgeous face on the cover, we spend money on books that he loves to read or music that he listens to, like his Brit Pack. He may not have been influential in showing his dog how to walk, but he has influenced us on how to spend our money on anything associated with him or Twilight. In the past two years he personally as been very influential in my life on how I spend some of my hard earned cash, and I can honestly say it was worth every penny. I apologize for over use of influence in this comment. I got carried away.

@ Sarahcini people pay way much more for many other things.. This is Rob we're talking about... his doodling, artwork whatever you want to call it. Just because he created it, it has value!

It all goes to the same place and it helps the same way!

This words SEEMS. To 'seems' something is to interpret it. And yes, we certainly our interpreting here. Interpreting what we can; the way the lines are laid down on the paper and what they might mean.
What we cannot interpret is how much time, effort and energy went into the work...if any. THAT is not open for interpretation at all.
Unless you think that ALL squiggly lines or something that LOOKS slapdash only takes a minute or two to draw. Wrong. Some squiggly lines and 'apparant' slapdash can take a particular artist...months. years.
Not that I think this particular artist spent such time.

You Rock! I do so enjoy all of your comments, your humor and your obvious intellect. I love that you love Rob as much as I do, and that you find his artwork here a masterful expression of his intent to duplicate himself. What a nice thought that is.
Maybe it's on his mind because he'll be filming BD next...or just because he is coming of age to seriously consider it, and wonders what kind of father he would be.
Anyways...as far as him being influential, I can personal attest to the fact that he has influenced me to have my first rip-roaring orgasm since I went thru menopause, and I will forever be grateful to him and my imagination for this earth-shattering, surprising event!

I saw the other balloons and many of them are rather childish or obviously drawn in '5 minutes'. To me Rob's one is quite artistic, a bit surreal and surely not a '3years-old'picture. And when I checked ebay it was almost the only balloon people were bidding for lol.

@Nik: Lol. I think you do just fine on your own...;) Not that I wouldn't have yr back, but right now I really do have to get on the move...
My final comment about the 'artwork' is that Rob might be the first to say it wasn't good enough, or he didn't give it its due, or he can't draw for shit...but that's his prerogative as the creator, and I personally luv the damn doodle. Later...
- May 27, 2010 at 4:39 PM

Hmmm, as to the comment about maybe it took him 5 min or less to do this. Some of my best line drawings have been done in that amount of time (prize winners and calendar covers). It's not the time it takes, it's the control and thought before. I hope he tries his hand at some more art.
But I have been looking at this crazy interesting thing 12 different ways at least and I agree with Nik it is about reproduction. He's got babies on his brain, or maybe just making babies. And that wouldn't be so odd, would it, since he is a normal guy?

And of course of he is. Sleeping with Reese that is. He's finally back in LA with Kristen after four months in Europe and he's working about an hour from her parent's home.
Yup. Makes perfect sense to me.
**rolls her eyes**
If he was gonna screw around with someone, why didn't he pick one of those three babes he was working with in Europe while his babe was
-for the most part- back in the states?

And thanks for all your great comments guys. But I do have a final question (oh dats not true. I got about 12 million questions).
But right now I'd like to know what the consensus is...
1) this is a surrealistic interpretation of reproduction
2) Rob sent us all a valentine about his peen, our squeeling ovaries and his impregnating stare
3) A little of both
I'm going with door number one. But that's because I'm a romantic sap and I've fallen in love with this thing.
And I don't care if some don't 'get
it.' I suppose I could yell...PHILISTINES at ya, but they probably wouldn't 'get' that either.
So which is it ladies; art or the devil taunting us?

It's normal and only confirm the thesis that it is important for us ordinary people that we want to see ending result forgetting we are limited ,we live under the shade of the associations of outside world, which interferes with the true feelings of art and pure energy ,frequently we do not see the effect of dancing fingers.

I go with a self portrait and your number 2."Rob sent us a valentine" referencing the unbelievable sexual intensity of his fans. Plus in my opinion Rob was probably a pretty innocent, inexperienced young man until the last couple of years. He now appears to be in a relationship with a beautiful young lady. He has definitely been in some sexually charged situations in a number of his movies and photo shoots. He only has to Google his own name and or go to a web site like this one to experience sexual awakening... Just reading what all us young and old ladies would like to do to him and vise versa would be enough to keep a young man in a constant state of horny. (As if a young man needs more stimulation). Can't imagine being his mother and how one would deal with the sexual interest being displayed to her little boy. It would be so hard not to join this and other groups and comment and try to protect him. I think it's a self portrait, hair, two eyes (one green) eye brows, nose, mouth, and well endowed penis. Not to mention all the squiggles and squirts! I think it is a commentary on self, and also on how the world is viewing him. He's a very intelligent young man…wonder what his IQ is???
I so much enjoy reading all your comments.

I'm the last person to preach, but I am truly amazed at some of the things that have been said about this drawing. *shakes head*
It was something he did for charity. I respect that he took the time to contribute. It's a very very worthy cause - it's for children... Why take something positive and make it salacious?
Anything you think you see is YOUR interpretation only and I highly doubt it was intentional. It's been said that when people look at art, they see what's inside them - maybe there's something to this.
I agree with whoever said: it's a doodle.
- May 27, 2010 at 7:27 PM
- nikola6 said...
I'll go check the damn e-mail.
@ olejp,
Thank you. That was a great comment yourself and I think you hit a few nails on the head.
I too am guessing that he doesn't have tons of experience or rather, he hasn't had tons of partners. Just doesn't strike me as the sleep around type as that would be the typical thing to do and I'm not sure he's got a typical bone in his body. He once made a comment that really struck me. He said for his generation sex had become cheap and he didn't say it jokingly. He said it wistfully, like maybe his generation was going about it all wrong. And,
From what I understand he has always been beautiful. Always had the attention of girls but with his shyness didn't know quite what to do with it all. Then according to the story it was his dad who got him into acting because of those pretty girls from the theatre club and I wondered, why? Then hearing about his sisters dressing him up like a girl and his mother putting him in modeling, I wondered if maybe his father was trying to steer him in another direction to try and break him out of that shell.
But now look what has happened to him. In some article it said that he had become perhaps, the most objectified young man of the modern age. That must be a very strange thing for him. That maybe when he's alone with his own thoughts, he tries to wrap his head around the idea that women all over the world are dreaming and fantasizing about him and maybe he has moments of arrogance about that. It would be understandable but I'm thinking for the most part it overwhelms him and he just doesn't understand it. If he did, don't you think he'd be strutting the world acting like God's gift? But instead he fumbles and bumbles his way through.
How would any of us feel if we knew that millions and millions of strangers were staring at our image and imagining us sexually in every possible way? That would make me not want to leave the house.
As for his intelligence,
I would guess that he'd test off the charts and if so, then he perceives the world differently than your average Joe. That was my ex and his IQ neared 200. I often wondered why he loved me. I'm no dummy, but I'm no genius either. He said he loved my skewered sense of the ridiculous (and my boobs & legs. well. he was a guy). He didn't understand it, but he found it highly amusing and I've often thought the same of Rob. He doesn't understand all of this adoration of himself but I'm guessing he's highly amused by it.
And with that class,
Biology 101 is done for the day. I've dissected our little frog and patched him up and put him back in his jar. LOL!
Sorry Rob. But you're just so damn fascinating. I can objectify you just as well as the next fangirl, but I'm having just as much fun trying to figure you out.
Right then. Damn e-mail.

Thanks Nik for writing back.
I believe he gets pretty overwhelmed at times and when he is not overwhelmed he's finding all the attention and fan mania hilarious. He has talked many times about all the craziness and paranoia. It appears to scare him, fascinate him and like you said amuse him. He likes to push the envelope, his and ours.
Have a great holiday weekend everyone!
yes it could all be a doodle! However I am old enough to be most everyone on this blog's grandmother and I do recognize a penis when I see one! Have seen a few in my days and nights!(Smile)

I find most of the posts amusing. As far as objectification , hope he has some help in dept of coping with this maddness.IQ of 140 does not guranteee a person can understand how to not lose one self.Afterall beauty , physique does not last for anyone unless one is the really immortal.Hope hehas support and help of family and friends to keep going and keep us fans fascinated.

Ok, so that answer a very important question for me. Rob IS cut! Yay! Not sure why I am celebrating that exactly, but I found it appropriate to celebrate Rob's penis.
I say this because, that is obviously an intentional penis. One of the things that is true about people when they draw (specially the least experienced ones) is that they tend to be autobiographical about the depiction of facial features, hands and apparently... is it penises? or peni? Anyway. Rob is most likely to draw what his looks like than not. sooo.... CUT IT IS! YOU ARE WELCOMED!

Delurking, here's another interpretation: Sex on legs.
I.e., the peen and squiggly lines below it which could possibly be his wonky legs. For his fans that see him that way. I also see something at the top that looks like a sum sign. Possibly the sum of the parts is greater than the whole? Or not.

@Judith, yes, I agree. It would be interesting to know where he started it on the balloon, top or bottom. Did he consciously know what he wanted to do (don't think so), but one squiggle led to another, the shapes and curves evolved I think, but do express something of a sexual nature, which is not surprising. I am just curious at what point he drew the clear peen, before or after the rest or somewhere in the middle and realized there was a theme here. Whatever, it's intriguing and I'd give my left arm to own it (well, maybe not really!)

I'm just going back through the thread ('cause this is a fun one) and oh my god...
I just saw your post. Thank you so much. That was very nice of you. I will write that link down. I really appreciate this as I couldn't have found that for a 100 million dollars and a loaded uzi at my head. Thank you again.
Yes. I do see a difference in him now as oppose to fall of 2008 when all of THIS hit him right smack dab in the face. He's learning. He's growing. He's maturing. Not just in his life but in his work AND...he's happy. You can just see it. Also, with all of that I would imagine would come a little more confidence. So yeah, he's is getting his footing here and maybe feeling like he can reveal a bit more about himself. 'Cause the thing is, for as much as he's had to talk about himself these past almost two years, he really hasn't revealed who he is. We know OF him. But we do not KNOW him. And most famous people haven't the first clue how to do that. They just slit their own bellies and let it all spill out onto the floor. Rob doesn't.
And BellaMarie...
Thank you so much for those great compliments AND to you and womadsart...for having the guts to admit to something that I'm sure many others have experienced AND if any man (in the bed or in our fantasies) can do that for us...what a man!!! Ain't he tho?
And NO! I do not believe that Rob Pattinson or Reese Witherspoon would allowed themselves to be used in such a way (the rumour of an affair) to promote their film. Not to mention, the possibility of such a rumour, hurting their actual lovers. No way!
What a fun thread this has been.
Thanks Rob...my brilliant, beautiful boy. I adore you.

As an aside, your comment about how he did not do what all the other hot young actors did ("every one of them"!) really struck me and explains the early speculation. I appreciated that a lot, 'cause at one point I wasn't sure which side of the fence he was on. Long gone. (Of course, wouldn't have mattered!) Thanks.

It's fascinating to me reading everyone's interpretations of Rob's art. My mind being in the gutter when it comes to Rob I immediately thought of sex and reproduction. Rob has influenced my sex drive!

Oh - I've noticed something .....
The peen was originally:
He drew the balloon in GREEN - it's a balloon within the big balloon. Then later he started doodling in other colours in his picture (blue and black). You can see that the rest of the peen is in BLACK which he added when he realised what it really looked like ...... ; )
Yes, he has definitely got a lot on his mind - his subconscious mind that is!

The second episode of Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn picks up after the first, and delves farther into the trials and tribulations of Hastati Squad.
The visual reminders of Battlestar Galactica do hang around, as we follow the group of young cadets adapting to the requirements of their military life. And we get a glimpse at just what a pain it is to get oneself into that now-classic UNSC armour under pressure.

Common Core: Questions abound
The state Board of Education adopted the Common Core Standards for New Hampshire two years ago. Last week, Manchester school board members postponed a committee meeting at which Common Core would be discussed because critical information about the standards had not been made available in time. At the full school board meeting the week before, no one knew whether the district would lose $77 million in state and federal aid if it rejected the standards. This is how grassroots opposition to government initiatives sprouts.
More and more parents are skeptical because there is no satisfying answer to even the most basic questions about Common Core. For example: What is Common Core? It is a set of standards in English "language arts" and math. But what does that mean? The standards are not a list of items students are expected to know, but brief, vague descriptions of broad skills students are expected to have at each grade level.
How teachers impart those skills is largely left to them – except that the standards come with suggested methods, some of which seem highly questionable. And even among education experts there is great disagreement over whether these standards are as rigorous or as predictive of success as supporters claim.
Many people who hated No Child Left Behind now champion Common Core. But they are peas in a pod. Both amount to national experiments being conducted in real time on our children without any firm sense of what the results will be.
This is exactly the wrong way to do education reform in the American republic. One of the primary benefits of a federated republic is that states can funcion, in the famous phrase, as "laboratories of democracy." Common Core weakens that advantage when it comes to education. Manchester officials are right to question the wisdom of blindly adopting these untested standards. If only state officials had done so earlier.

|Getting Started With Hudson
What is Hudson?
- Building/testing software projects continuously, just like CruiseControl or DamageControl. In a nutshell, Hudson provides an easy-to-use so-called continuous integration system, making it easier for developers to integrate changes to the project, and making it easier for users to obtain a fresh build. The automated, continuous build increases productivity.
- Monitoring executions of externally-run jobs, such as cron jobs and procmail jobs, even those that are run on a remote machine. For example, with cron, all you receive is regular e-mails that capture the output, and it is up to you to look at them diligently and notice when it broke. Hudson keeps those outputs and makes it easy for you to notice when something is wrong.
Hudson offers the following features:
- Easy installation: Just java -jar hudson.war for testing. Use a native package or deploy it in a servlet container for production use. No additional install, no database.
- Easy configuration: Hudson can be configured entirely from its friendly web GUI with extensive on-the-fly error checks and inline help. There's no need to tweak XML manually anymore, although if you'd like to do so, you can do that, too.
- Change set support: Hudson can generate a list of changes made into the build from SCM systems like CVS, Subversion, Git and many others. This is done in a fairly efficient fashion, to reduce the load on the repository.
- Permanent links: Hudson gives you clean readable URLs for most of its pages, including some permalinks like "latest build"/"latest successful build", so that they can be easily linked from elsewhere.
- RSS/E-mail/IM Integration: Monitor build results by RSS or e-mail to get real-time notifications on failures.
- After-the-fact tagging: Builds can be tagged long after builds are completed
- JUnit/TestNG test reporting: JUnit test reports can be tabulated, summarized, and displayed with history information, such as when it started breaking, etc. History trend is plotted into a graph.
- Distributed builds: Hudson can distribute build/test loads to multiple computers. This lets you get the most out of those idle workstations sitting beneath developers' desks.
- File fingerprinting: Hudson can keep track of which build produced which jars, and which build is using which version of jars, and so on. This works even for jars that are produced outside Hudson, and is ideal for projects to track dependency.
- Plugin Support: Hudson can be extended via 3rd party plugins. You can write plugins to make Hudson support tools/processes that your team uses.
Hudson Best Practices
Continuous Integration with automated test execution has seen broad adoption in recent years. The ideas behind Continuous Integration have changed how companies look at Build Management, Release Management, Deployment Automation, and Test Orchestration. This section provides a set of best practices for Hudson - A Continuous Integration Solution to provide executives, business managers, software developers and architects a better sense of the development progress and code quality of projects throughout the development lifecycle.

Buzzcocks co-founder Pete Shelley dies at 63
LONDON (AP) - Pete Shelley, the singer-songwriter and co-founder of the punk band the Buzzcocks, has died at age 63.
On Thursday, the band confirmed "with great sadness" his death and called him "one of the U.K.'s most influential and prolific songwriters." The Buzzcocks announced in a tweet on its website. It did not elaborate on the details of Shelley's death but said that more information would be released later.
The Buzzcocks were part of the punk revolution which began in England in the mid-1970s and also featured such groups as the Sex Pistols and the Clash. Like their contemporaries, the Buzzcocks scorned what they considered the pretensions and bloated style of mainstream groups and turned out brief, stripped down songs, performed at manic speed.
Their singles included "Ever Fallen in Love (With Someone You Shouldn't've)," the explicit "Orgasm Addict" and "What Do I Get?" Their energy and intensity were worthy of punk, but they also had a melodic streak, with the song "Everybody's Happy Nowadays" sounding at times like a punk version of the Beach Boys.
On Thursday, Mike Mills of R.E.M. tweeted: "Damn. Pete Shelley gone. The Buzzcocks were and are a favorite of mine, and I was fortunate to be able to hang with Pete a few times and tell him so."
Shelley, whose real name was Peter Campbell McNeish, was born in the English town of Leigh in 1955. He founded Buzzcocks with Howard Devoto after they met at what is now the University of Bolton. The band debuted in 1976 in Manchester, opening for the Sex Pistols. Devoto left in 1977 and Shelley took over as lead singer.
The Buzzcocks broke up in the early 1980s, but reunited in the late '80s and continued to perform and record over the past three decades.
Tributes poured in from around the music world.
Guns N' Roses bassist Duff McKagan tweeted: "As a lifelong @Buzzcocks fan...I so appreciate the musical influence Pete. Condolences to your family...."
Peter Hook, the bassist and co-founder of Joy Division and New Order, tweeted: "Pete Shelley - a true gent! He helped us so much at the start of our career out of a sheer love for all things punk. Without Pete & the Buzzcocks I would probably still be working at the Docks. RIP mate."
