Anyone else creeped out by “Higgs” in photoshop contest?

by |Published

Is anyone else creeped out by the “Higgs” character in the Symmetry Magazine photoshop contest [1]? I am. All I can think of is Towlie from “South Park,” because they look a lot alike. All I hear is Higgsie saying, “You guys wanna get high (pT)?”

I know this, by definition, cannot win. In fact, it’s likely to get ignored. But here is my contribution to the photoshop contest.

Higgsie and Towlie hang out with the kids from South Park. Creepy.
