Parodied?

I have never seen it parodied? It is usually regarded with reverence.

Maybe someone doesn’t know the definition of parodied.

It has been, actually, with cartoon characters or what have you.

I agree parodied is humorous, satire, ridicule. Pastiche is a better word for it. Often used in reverence.

i have never seen in parodied either, that I can recall.

I’m not saying it hasn’t been, but it’s hardly known for being frequently parodied.

Off the top of my head I’d say the Mona Lisa and Grant Wood’s American Gothic have been parodied a whole lot more.

I have seen it parodied dozens of times. Sometimes respectfully. Sometimes disrespectfully.

I think it is a shame how there was a campaign to discredit Joe Rosenthal by saying he staged the photo. He didn’t. But even if he had, it would have been a great staged photo.
