Remember James Fridman, the master of photoshop who takes everything literally? We wrote about him back in March, then again in June, and now he strikes again with a new batch of photoshopped pictures.

For those who don't remember, this guy is just like the magic wish-granting funny photoshop genie - he'll give you EXACTLY what you asked for but in a twisted kind of way, deliberately delivering you the best photoshop fails ever. Just take a look at the photoshopped pics below to see what I'm talking about. And if you're too lazy to scroll down, I'll give you a hint - if you'd make a typo and ask for an Eyefell tower instead of Eiffel in the background of your picture, you'll be definitely getting a tower with eyes falling off of it.

Have a pic that you'd like to submit to this photo manipulation genius? Ask James for his help on Twitter, but be careful what you ask for, you may just get the funny fails you've asked for! P.S. Don't submit any personal photos that you do not want to be made public.

    The hilarious approach James Fridman takes with his literal photoshop interpretations can be seen as a visual counterpart to using clever language.

    Just like Fridman's playful alterations, one might use witty euphemisms when framing words to bring a smart humor to potentially awkward situations.
