Stretching the Canvas: Mayan memes, Christmas tidings and Giorgia A. Tsoukalos

This week Canvas couldn’t get enough of Mayan inspired memes, Christmas tidings and History Channel’s Giorgio A Tsoukalos.

Canvas users really got into the holiday spirit this week with a handful of original, remix editor, drawn content and the Mayan system of calendars, which was constantly in the news the last few weeks.

And to cap off the Mayan hysteria, Canvas released some New Year’s inspired stickers that included glasses of champagne, a 2012 logo and a Mayan calender pendant.

Here’s what else went down on Canvas this week.

Monday
	You didn’t know they were also voice actors, did ya? Laura Soft makes a comeback. Canvas user thwjustin needs a good reason to give away his holiday stickers. Making-out in public makes some people uncomfortable. Portal themed Christmas tree. Darth Vader is a sick man Ask and you shall receive. It can’t get any more obvious than that. What if Adolph Hitler was just misunderstood? Canvas superuser photocopier has a special gift for Canvas this holiday season.

Tuesday
Now we know why Link from the Legend of Zelda runs so weird. Story of redditor who receives random photo of a dog finds a new life on Canvas. Disaster averted thanks to some quick thinking. Canvas users want to know what are the best ways to start an argument on the site. The resemblance is uncanny. Meth has some strange side-effects. Canvas user splig draws some epic holiday scenes. Older cell phones were made with more than just plastic. Canvas users have some ideas for new stickers

Wednesday
	The stages of life through Canvas stickers. A meme turned into a GIF, wrapped in a meme. Neil Patrick Harris can do no wrong. Sometimes Barbie has to cut a bitch (or two, or three…) Even after he’s dead, Kim Jong-il can’t catch a break, especially on Canvas. A bathroom travesty of epic proportions. The most disgusting, and beautiful, pieces of art you’ve seen this week. Poor gal never had a chance. Canvas users have one last message for 2011.

 

Thursday
There’s only one sound explanation for the Mayans’ predictions. Alien expert Giorgio A Tsoukalos is a giant among men. New Years stickers have Canvas users confused. My Little Pony is a perfectly legitimate excuse to kick mom off the TV. A New Year’s Eve party you’ll never forget (on second thought, maybe you will). The true enemy has finally revealed itself. Where the hell is Optimus?!? The Office’s Jenna Fischer might be Canvas’ favorite new gal. Cats are so easily entertained.

Friday
	Now that’s a true friend. Canvas users are in a Mayan mood. Legends of the Hidden Temple was a show before its time. First world problems hit Canvas. It’s the end of the world as we know it. Either Canvas super user photocopier was possessed by aliens or he’s just that damn good. The real meaning behind the 2012 London Olympics is revealed. Life is truly the greatest gift ever.
