Blinkers

Like many things in life, all we can ask is that people don't use photo editing software to manipulate and create falsehoods in our society. Blinkers as it has come to be known is the exact opposite of one of these core tenants of life. Much like the Instagram models of yesteryear, we too fall to the pressures society lays before us and cave to this innate desire to produce images unfit for our world. So where did Blinkers come from? Where is it going? And how the heck did we get here? Man has dreamed since the dawn of time that one day we could live in a world that is humbling and peaceful. Sadly man is somewhat shit at what man does, so instead we live in a dystopia where internet memes hold the fabric of society together as it tears at the seams each day and we march ever closer to our demise. One such man of positive dreams, compassion, and joy is our local Cycle Sports competitor TurboTad. Turbo like many people of Earth has a core desire to bring joy to the hearts of his friends, family, and community, he uses this core desire to fuel his day to day interactions with others by always being pleasant and accommodatable. One day TurboTad did a cooking stream to make Chicken Katsu, to show not just his prowess as a chef, but also his love for creating things for those he loves. In this moment Turbo had one too many drinks and smiled with his eyes closed. This moment would go down in history as, the smile. Like many things in life, all we can ask is to keep Nivosus away from things that are meant to be wholesome. He has a deep-seeded record of turning normal things into cursed things. Aided by his compatriot and fellow professional chatter RareestPepper, the photo of the smile was delivered to Niv in request for something great. Niv did the only thing he knew how to. He attempted to remove the nose of Turbo in the image and found that it lacked a certain jenesequa, so he did something he had only done once before. Eye extraction.

He removed the eyes of local Pizza Pal Brandon from the image Peekers and began grafting them to the face of TurboTad. Each eye was carefully removed, blended, and enhanced to create something so awful it would shake the foundations of Twitch Chat. As each moment grew closer to the end, Niv noticed that when turning off layers of the emote, a blinking effect could be achieved, which to his surprise was indeed hilarious. Niv did not have a good understanding of animation or creating gifs so he recorded himself clicking the layer over and over to simulate a blinking effect which was later edited and converted by TurboTad himself into the Blinkers image we all know and love today. Thus cementing another legendary emote in the Pizzaverse lore catalog. You, our loyal Pizza Patriots can find Blinkers on BetterTTV.com and add it to your channel so we can blink together, as one.
