Cover Judging

If judging by the cover was a sport, we would be professional athletes. We would also have various Olympic medals and certificates of achievement. This really never brings us any good, but at least we show a little bit of class when we're proven wrong. Often times we just miss out on things that are really awesome like Lady Gaga's new album Born This WayHonestly mother monster, a poorly edited photo of a motorbike with your gargoyle face mounted on the head? This cover would OBVIOUSLY cause some preconceived notions that the album was the love child of an expensive prostitute and the Hell's Angels. We don't like to admit we're wrong but this album cover really shows who the real little monsters are (those who are willing to appreciate the cover and just listen to the music). After taking a listen to the iTunes store snippets of the album we believed our idea to be correct however after listening to the full versions of each song, we have come to the conclusion that iTunes is corrupt. Some corporate in the iTunes company with a devout conservative outlook was clearly out to curb Gaga's career. They just chose the most boring parts of each song to advertise, and it almost worked. However that meddling wench didn't get the best of Gaga.

Things we Judge by the Cover:

-food: Indian food, old diaper or take out?
-people: Oh come on we all do it 
-clothes: You know that thing when a dress looks ugly on a hanger and then you put it on a person and it looks fabulous
-music:already established
-voices: You know that thing when you hear someone's singing voice but they actually look way different than you expected. Can be a let down.

Enjoy judging but at least have the decency to keep an open mind, even after being proven wrong.

Until the arrival of a new Post,
enjoy the link,
sincerely,

  1. This post makes me feel very self-conscious about the other day when you guys and Alex showed up and I looked like I'd been run over by an unfashionable truck.
