My friend (and he's on probation after this) Dan Durda sent me a link to The 50 Worst Album Covers. That's a grandiose claim, but man -- I'm thinking they nailed it.

Now I have to wonder if some are real: Number 41 is stolen from The Simpsons (Milhouse's father sang that song, so I wonder which art is imitating the other art). And c'mon, Number 27 is just plain true. Number 46 is funny on purpose, too, so I don't think it counts. But the rest... yikes. Click that link at your own risk. ... and a note to my sister: recognize that weird clown thing over her shoulder in that picture?

Which of us truly has not been in exactly this situation?
