Subject: Guess the Badly Recreated Album Cover!

Written By: My name is Kenny on 07/22/04 at 6:51 pm

So, um, I spend a lot of my free time drawing famous album covers in MS Paint, which as you can imagine is a glorious waste of time.  Since I figure it would be such a waste to draw these and not show them to anyone, I dare you all to figure out what the heck I was trying to draw.  Some are really obvious, some are of more obscure artists, and some are drawn better than others.  Limit four, and good luck.

Okay, so.. The Replacements album is Pleased to Meet Me.  And, I have a half a point left, so #26 is a David Bowie album.. I know the title, but I'm not allowed to give it since I only have a half a point left, and I don't want to break the limit.


Sorry to be such a confusing cack.

In case anyone is still wondering where "cack" comes from: to cack oneself means to soil your pants, usually from laughing hard. So a "cack" is someone who makes you laugh so much, you loose control of your bowel. :)

Apparently  it dates way back when people, notably right-handed, reserved the left hand for cleaning oneself after defecating and used the right hand for all other purposes. :P

Cack being a derivative of the Latin cacare...meaning to defecate !

I bet you're glad you asked now Paul ! ;D
