> History #92: Please Help (or Get That THING Away From Me!!!)
Humor, Horror, and Heavy Metal: Please Help INDEED. Looks like this poor homeless woman is about ready to get raped. Oooops.
This is a flyer I made for one of my friends who was going to college at the time (don't know if he ever graduated really - especially after this). He was on the Student Advisory Board and he needed something drawn up for their charity drive they were putting on to help the hungry and homeless.

He gave me like a month's heads up that he wanted something, so I said "No Problem. I'll make you something cool.".

Of course, I totally put it off until the day before he needed. Oooops.

Soooo, I drew up something SUPER fast. I made it a little funky, with a close up of an eye crying (in a box all comic booky) and had the hair flowing into both the sunset and some HORRIBLE silhouette images of a businessman in a hat bending over to help a poor homeless woman laying in the gutter (mind you, this was previous to me going to school and taking life drawing – these silhouettes super suck and I had no time to figure out how to decently draw these people at all – damn my laziness).

Anyhoo, he made hundreds of copies and they sent them ALL over the city: passed them out around the campus, put them up in store windows, and all that fun. That was it. Done and done.

It wasn't until a couple years later, when I came across the flyer again, that I realized something REALLY disturbing about it. In my rush to get it done FAST, I inadvertently drew the business man's silhouette hand (the one NOT reaching to the girl, it is down by his crotch) SOOOO badly that it doesn't look like a hand at ALL. It looks like a PENIS.

Humor, Horror, and Heavy Metal: The Hand Penis

I mean it REALLY looks like a penis.

Now, the poor homeless woman looks like she is actually a crack whore about ready to give this guy a blow job for money (got to get that crack somehow).

I can't believe I never noticed that before. Hahahahahahahahahhaaaaa. I wonder if anybody else ever saw this? They HAD to. Life lesson here. ALWAYS proof your work. If not, you may end up with an "Accidental Penis".
