So the fact that cracked posted them first disqualifies the stupidness of these covers? I haven't even cited cracked as some legitimate source for a fact. If I got these from foxnews,com or the daily mail, I would credit them too. Simply because I'm not a jerk.
I don't really want to keep arguing about this.

hahaha! I have that one! I bought in a thrift store for 50cents with a bunch of other random books, I didn't flip through it or anything. I just saw "HP Lovecraft" and I knew I needed to read him so I put it in my bag. I don't know if the cracked article goes into this, but out of the twelve stories in there, guess how many are written by hp lovecraft? Fucking ONE. Not gonna lie some of the other stories were pretty entertaining though.

Oh look at this redneck claiming that anyone should concern themselves with his free speech, he's an racist bigoted idiot and his speech is not worth concerning yourself with.

You're a social justice warrior yourself, you just can't see it because you are right in the middle with the "enemy" defined for you. You just want your own kind of social justice, this is why we all laugh at you behind your back.

Now fuck off to \pol\ or \a\ or where ever you came from.
