Let's make our error pages shiny, internet-y and fun. theoatmeal is giving us access to all the images shown at http://theoatmeal.com/comics/state_web_summer#tumblr

Let's add'em!
I recommended we do this, half-jokingly, in #webdev the other day. I am so on this.

Very nice idea.
yes, yes, yes.
The Simpsons (errr Beltzner) did it: bug 628420.
These are cool :-) But what's the license? Can we get a clear Creative Commons-ing statement from the Oatmeal guy? That would be awesome.

"You can use this" sadly isn't free software :-|

I e-mailed them. Even if we don't hear from them, this isn't be a blocker to getting them up on our site.
I also want to reiterate what I said in bug 628420...even though the oatmeal graphics are awesome, IMHO having the same thing as other sites takes a lot of thefun out of it (and I am sure a ton of other sites are using these after that comic). We have a kick-ass art team and talented community contributors...we should be able to create something with similar internet whimsy
No doubt about that, Christian. I just don't want to have to wait for that when we already have options, like these, available.
Uh, I don't see anything
Oh, wait. I just got cached. f'
Congrats to MDN :)
We can ship 1.0 without this, BUT NO OTHER RELEASES THEREAFTER.
