Justin Pinkney and Doron Adler are programmers and artificial intelligence "enthusiasts," and recently they launched a website that allowed users the opportunity to "toonify" themselves. What that means is their website allows users to upload a photo and the program this dynamic duo wrote will show everyone what the photographed person would look like if they were an animated cartoon character.

If you think that sounds cool it's because it is really, really cool. In fact, it's so cool that their website at one point was overwhelmed with traffic and temporarily shut down!

If you're not fully convinced, check out this compelling evidence of totally tubular toonified people you just might recognize!
