Variation #165
Front Cover
“I am not fuckin’ drunk”
Crayons are a beast to try and draw hands/fingers, so fuck it, draw a mouse like creature with a flask and a cigarette. Last one from the Mid-90’s group, this one posted by Justin Sitner.

“A Blah Blah
A Woof Woof
A Pronoun”
Bubble letters – red and green marker,
From Facebook and Harls In Charge.
A shitty haiku.

“Someone thought this was a good idea.”
Marc Arsenault sent this one in and I sat on it for a while (actually this post is probably back dated, so didn’t appear on the date it says it did, who the fuck cares?). I have no clue what this cover is getting at, although I’d suspect this might have come from the New Jersey crew of the Vermiform allied folks (Merel were from Jersey, no?). The S in the “someone” looks like from the Skeptix “…So The Youth” LP (on the notorious Rock-O-Rama label, but Skeptix were not a nazi band in any way).
And the pavement is grey duct tape, but chunks, not one solid piece. If it were a piece of modern art (and, fuck it, it might be) I’d say it has a lot going on.

“Too Fukin Much” “Out of Ideas”
The punk plundering continues, this time with a loose attempt at the Minor Threat Out of Step 12″ EP (particularly the UK edition – so, third pressing?) The black sheep is actually pretty close to the original; the herd however is a bit, well, different from the original Minor Threat version. Either way, this one comes courtesy of the mid-90’s group again, and this one is owned by Rich Boulet.
Back Cover
Another one from the mid-90’s Facebook group. This one is owned by Harls Incharge. Strikes me as the sort of fellow who might be in control?

Looks like the plain businessman style of Variation #39 . Thanks James and nojsbojs!

Jason Schulmerich contributed this via e-mail. Here’s what he had to say about it:
Ahoy. Procrastinated for years on sending this. Sorry. I found another copy long ago with a drawing of a burning U.S. flag on it. I gave it to my friend who actually died a few months ago. I’ll see if I can somehow wrest it from his estate. So, you may hear from me again. Later.

Well I’m not sure where I copped this image – proably ebay. Anyways, it’s a pretty plain jane deal, but maybe with a lipstick smear on the front cover. Slightly 3-D, slightly interesting.
Front Cover
“Pencils are sorta fucked, hey?”
Another submission from Edward Felch, this one perfectly timed for back to school. Pencils are indeed fucked this time of year, with all the sharpening that they have to go through. I mean, think of the pencils man, think of the pencils….
Anyways, it’s done with pencil crayons which don’t stick well to glossy covers. And a rarity with no “Featuring” sticker. Perhaps on the back.
Thanks for the submission the site wouldn’t exist without you (and everyone else who’ve submitted!).
Front Cover
“The Fear of a Good Smelling”
“Ouch! Foot Foot Discipline”
This one comes courtesy of Edward Felch, who acquired this evidence of foot (foot) fetishism. It’s a good ‘un, with the block lettering seemingly similar to Variation #122, Variation #113, Variation #111, maybe Variation #61, and Variation #40. Thanks, Ed!
