Point being, there's bound to be at least one coarsely polished turd in these piles. Enjoy!

Slappy is not, truth be told, a mildly developmentally stunted child with an overactive imagination and a registered copy of Photoshop. How does your opinion of his creations change if we tell you he is a man grown with a full-time job and a mortgage?
