We got a meme going here?

A $36,000 oil painting !!!

I'll only charge ALPA 20 bucks for a Moak portrait.

your photo shop skills are inspiring. With MS Paint, I'm just not brave enough to do that.

but I think this is a good meme, we should keep it going.

If you think that's bad, try getting an ad on your email from a colon hydrotherapy session. I looked at that and thought, I know what the colon is. I know why hydro means. I know what therapy is. So, I just had to go look to confirm what it is:

• $55 ($113 value) for a colon hydrotherapy session and consultation
Customized by a certified hydrotherapist with five years of experience, this treatment uses warm water to help flush your
body of accumulated debris and waste in the colon.


It's just a bidet, on a mission.

I almost photo shopped him on a nice Chive.com bikini portrait.

$55 is a steal.

That same thing will cost you $500 in Vegas.
The certified hydrotherapist is named Destiny and she only works on Saturdays.

First of all, no one has proof that a painting of LM cost $36K.

DPA conviently did not show the cost of any other paintings, and so now people assume every single one cost $36K. Is that not deceitful?

That being said, spending our dues money on oil paintings is a waste IMO. But until an alternative that I consider to be acceptable comes around, I'm personally sticking with ALPA.
