Tags: cover snark, win some shit
Inspired by snarkhunter’s comment in our last cover snark, and clamored for by many, including me despite my own exceptionally poor OMG Bad Photoshop skillz (they are not uber uber l33t by a longshot), behold: a contest to kick off our new site design. I give you: LOL COVER SNARK!
The rules: add your LOLCoverSnark to the comments, and we’ll judge in the comment thread itself for the best of the group. You can your vote if you don’t like to comment (Hi Lurkers! Hayadoin?). Comments will close in 24 48 hours (G’day Australia!) and winners will get books and a Romance Novel magnetic poetry set for their very own.
And now, our samples, let us show you them.
Oh my. Penis goes where? Perfect.
I love these sample covers!!! I did some hunting and found a HI-larious site:
http://www.worldoflongmire.com (under features) that spoofs romance book covers. Funny, funny!
#2: SRY U WUZ SAYIN SOMETHIN?
LMAO! Psssst You is adopted! LMAO!!!
Ohhhh… penis goes there LOL! The double penis one is amazing. ;D
But I have to admit, I think Logmire has you beat with his The Love Bum cover:
I think changing the tag-line under the title and the ‘Author of’ part to match the title was a particularly brilliant touch. I mean, The Love Bum: The stars were his ceiling, a refrigerator box his den of love...” ROFL!
I really wish I had Photoshop now…
And because fart jokes never get old, one more:
LOL!
I really needed these today.

#3 green scum. It etz us.
Jennifer! You made me LOL at the ‘hooha’ cover. Hands down, iz mah favorite.
The “My Philips’ Head...” one is brilliant!
“My Phillips Head” for the win.
I love the phillips head one too! It definitely has my vote! I even brought my husband over and he chuckled too!
Oh bother! I just relocated, and all my books are still packed (and my scanner not set up). I keep meaning to post the vintage Johanna Lindsey cover where the nekkid man has a burst (pointy seal with publisher’s blurb) covering his butt.
Anyway…

Chicken pocks one has mine. LMAO. Brillaint. Beyond brillaint.
Laughing myself silly. “I iz doktor.” Brilliant.
The mantittie milk one is brilliant ! Also the Philips head one made me chucklet too.
Testing to see if I can do this ...
Oh oh, I figured it out!!!
— Bonz
Oops. Glaggh. Sorry about that. I emailed mine to Sarah. Just tape a big DOH! onto my forehead.
Help! I don’t know how to add my picture!
Ok, I iz doktor was my fave....but I about busted a gut when I saw “speshul bubbles”!!!!!!!!!!!!! Srsly.
Oh, special bubbles for the win! I’m eating dinner and I almost snorted corn! That’s what I get for reading these while eating. :)
Okay, I’ve got two
and my favorite
Check out mt l33t photoshop skills. I just hope they show, my html isn’t really to par
OK, I have no idea if this will work, so DIS IZ TEST:
Spamword: island77 - yes I was born on an island in ‘77! this thing is magic!
What a glorious comeback.
And thanks for thinking of us down under....
I’m laughing too hard to come up with a lolcat… I mean, lolbookcovva.
Moar! Moar!
Hope this works…
These aren’t mine, but they are my favorite thing on the internet ever so I wanted to share them:
Romance novel parodies by VeryBigJen
It helps that she’s a photoshop pro, I mean a real pro.
Buttseks plan, LOL! In ur hoo ha, LOL! Leroy Jenkins!?!?! OMG, I’m gonna die, srsly!!
spamword: yet98. No, I’m not (but I’ll be halfway there this summer).
LOL!!! Leroy Jenkins :)
I’ve srsly busted a gut over all of these!
After this, I promise I’m going to turn the computer off and go to sleep ...
— Bonz
Leroy Jenkins FTW!
But “My philips head..” was a close close second for me.
So many great covers, so hard to choose!
I loved the phillips head and the special bubbles but Gemma’s buttsecks plan was my absolute fav!
o, the laffs tey hrt.
I vote fore “IM in ur hoo ha, bein so ded”
Trying this one more time (I’m bad with coding if it isn’t obvious)
These are great! Love the ‘buttsecks plan’ cover and the ‘speshul bubbles’. Hmmm...wonder if I can come up with something....
Phillips Head?!1! Leroy Jenkins!??11
Oh noes, 2 much laffin!
Iz ded.
ROFLMAO! You all are WAY more creative and talented than me!
BRAVO!!!!!!!
(My verification word is “average82”! That’s me! Snort!!)
LMAO- Cat Marsters Buttsecks covers are killing me!
My votes go to “I can has methadone”, closely followed by the two-fer of Cat Marsten’s buttsecks combo.
The mantitty milk one was brilliant.
I like the “If you find it” one the best so far, but all of these are excellent.
I inspired a contest?! YAY.
My brain iz ded, though. :( My only good idea is already up there as a sample. BUT EVERYONE ELSE’S ARE AWESOME.
(What, no ‘preview’ option? Hope that worked.)
Thanks everyone for LOLing at my Phillips’ Head one. :-)
And because I can’t stop doing these…
My verification word was “bring34.” I’m sure I could find 34 more of these if it wasn’t for that little thing called a job.
BTW, I love the secret bubbles one. I almost spit out my frappuccino.
so many funny ones!
Gemma’s mantitty milk one made me laugh the hardest.
My faves so far are the Phillips Head one and the man-titty milk (last night at choir, we were singing a Handel piece, which has the line “kings shall be our nursing fathers").
Mrm. I don’t think mine worked, so here’s another try, different host. Sorry if they in fact DID work and you’re forced to see ‘em twice—I’d delete the other tries if I could.
P.S.: I love “Leroy Jenkins” and “You eated my cookie?”!
Ok, coversnark is really making me miss the pop-up comments window :(
So much better when I could read the comments and look at the covers side-by-side. Though I suppose I could always open another window........ But that little pink window sure came in handy and was easily hidden when I had to look busy at work!
Props to Eva Lynn. I was trying to work out how you could get ceiling cat in, but gave up. You carried it off with panache.
I have about fifteen favourite entries so far. I don’t think I can bring myself to vote against fourteen of them. Hmmm.
Okay, I know this is past time. Here are mine. I hope these show up:
iz ready to make cheezeburger.jpg
deh fish was dis big.jpg
control_he needs it2.jpg
Darn. I don’t know how to upload the pics.
Can someone help me?
R
Thanks, Gemma! :)
Rebecca—to put the pics here, you have to first upload them to another server (Photobucket works for sure, I had trouble with a couple others first). Then you copy the url to the picture, and paste it in here so that it looks something like this:
<img src="http://i278.photobucket.com/albums/kk100/yourusername/
yourgallery/yourpicture.jpg">
Of course your url (the part between the quotes) will be different, but… that’s basically how.
Jennifer Crusie’s “You Eated My Cookie” for the WIN!
I snorted my 7 Up over IM IN UR HOO HA BEIN DED.
A question that comes to my mind [besides the requisite wtf-moment] damn near every time I see a romance cover:
What the hell is it with the woman’s hair?
Gah! Candidly, those huge, mushroom clouds of varying hues billowing out of women’s craniums are even more disturbing to me than Men with Mullets.
back84 - no, no, no, way worse than it was back in ‘84.
