5 Totally Awesome Album Covers
Let us face it, music is great. Especially getting the physical work (particularly the vinyl record). You got the best sound, the mesmorizing spinning record, the liners, the booklets, and of course, the album art. Now, of course, not all album covers are created equal. In fact, you can find many of today’s album arts on several “Worst” lists. I beg to differ, these are underappreciated for the awesomeness that they totally bring. Here is 5 Totally Awesome Album Covers. 1. Don’t Hassel the Hoff… he’s just a night rockin! Oh… my… god… how did I go my entire 36 year old life and never see this magnificent display of…

Cheetos Kind of Shaped Like Things For Sale
“You can buy anything on the internet” takes on a whole new meaning today when I recently discovered that people sell Cheetos, you know, the delicious snack, shapes liked things. Not only do they try to sell these Cheetos, but the prices are astronomical. This lovely idea was brought handed over to me by retrogamingdev. Also, I must say, that occasionally, the term “looks like” or “shaped like” is used very loosely in some cases. Saxophone? So, is this a saxophone? To me, I see almost more of a seahorse… or you know, just a freaking Cheeto. Yeah, that is really what I say. But you know what, this person…
