A couple of days ago, we did our best to figure out what was going on with the strongly vaginal imagery of A Voice for Men’s newly issued commemorative coins, designed by a “a world class jeweler and minter, widely recognized as a master artisan in his trade,” who also happens to be the father of A Voice for Men’s “Activia Director” Attila Vinczer.
The commemorative coins were such a lovely gift to all of us who enjoy laughing at MRAs that a friend of this blog suggested to me that we should return the favor by designing a commemorative plate for AVFM. This generous soul also pledged to provide a prize for the winner: an authentic “male tears” coffee mug.
So let’s see what you’ve got! You can use the carefully prepared commemorative plate template I pasted in above, or make one of your own. The more perplexing, the better!
If you need some inspiration, let me remind you again what the official AVFM commemorative coin looks like:
I’m sorry. That’s not AVFM’s commemorative coin. That is actually a guinea pig wearing glasses. Let me try again:
Crap. That’s actually a nineteenth-century illustration depicting the Galvanic Reanimation of the Dead. Here we go again:
What is that I don’t even.
Ok,ok, here’s the damn coin:
Also, I am being told that the younger Vinczer is not actually AVFM’s “Activia Director.” He is actually the site’s “Minister of Greek Yogurt.”
Unfortunately, I don’t think even the the world’s best PI would be up for such a challenge.
Hire a PI to do what? Track him down for stalking purposes? Ew.
An excellent use of resouces, he definitely is creating a legacy as a
human rights activist petty man-child.Of course if he exposes a darker side of David I’ll no longer support WHTM. If you’re in the Association of Kitten Kicking Enthusiasts we’re done Futrelle. Those kitty kickers are the worst.
Gah! The Strike Moster is truly the most fearsome fiend of HTML!
Let’s try that again.

Myoo: Another excellent entry. The off-center words are a nice touch.
I assume that the proceeds from selling the AVFM coins will go to hiring this PI to expose David’s…I don’t know, love of cats?
Good thing they’ve sold six of them! PI’s don’t come cheap!
Ain’t that the truth! At least they’re putting their money to a worthy cause, like doxxing and harassing a critic. Be terrible if they had to spend that cash on actually helping men.
Really, I hope they are able to sell some more coins. They got a freebie, doxxing Bucky Turco and the teacher from Detroit, but with a potential law suit against the Double Tree AND having to hire a PI to doxx David, the funds must be running low.
Maybe it is time for another fund raiser!
Each and every one of these would make a beautiful dish on which to serve your ramen for one after donating all of your money to Paul Elam.
Oh my god, Buttercup! The moth is horrifyingly fascinating, and I almost didn’t notice the appropriated logos. And then I laughed myself into an asthma attack.
I’m disappointed that even using MSpaint, I STILL can’t suck enough to really be in the competition. AUUUUUGH I FEEL LIKE A SINGER TRYING TO SING BADLY
Who knew there was a downside to having skill and talent?

Myoo, love the disclaimer on that plate!
I have addressed Mr. V’s, er “allegations” in a new post.
Bwahahahaha!
So, they’re threatening David again?
That’s all it is. They want him to know they can find him, just like stalkers and abusers do.
Such activism! So human rights! Much integrity!
When I was adding the tear to my plate design (the beaver in a fedora with the equally appropriate JFK quote) I noticed that the tear/raindrop/whatever-the-fuck-it-is is upside down and somehow defying gravity – So maybe it’s not a beaver in a puddle, maybe it’s a vagina projectile squirting at the deft touch of the disembodied hand…. That’s my new interpretation (as a world class plate-artist) of the design of a fellow world class coin-artist.
My submission!

Somehow, I feel that “coin artist” is more valid when said in a New Yoik accent, in this case 🙂
[CONTENT NOTE: puckering] As inspired by the coin, I submit the ultimate simplicity.
Superb thread, this – what talented people you all are! Hard to choose (though I’m not keen on the RIP Paul text – not sure he needs to increase his sense of appropriated victimhood (while telling his victims, er, supporters, to live off noodles and that their sufferings are meaningless if they don’t chip in more than they can afford).
@ brooked – I believe what Nietzche originally said was “Stare too long into the abyss and sooner or later you see a long-haired hamster staring back at you. Through chunky spectacle frames”.
You won’t find that in the official editions of Nietzche’s work, but Atilla Vinczer’s own Private Investigator told me it was true.
katz, aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh!
The RIP text was a mistake, but damn, that picture of Elam as a schnauzer was perfect.
I’m not going to draw the image, as it really would be NSFW and a bunch of other places as well, but I think the perfect AVfM plate would simply have a goatse in the middle. The theme then dovetails nicely with the coin.
Well that wasn’t a mental image I expected to have planted in my head today.
