HA! now that I’ve diabolically hoodwinked you into thinking this is about boobs, enjoy: > **[Ronaldo statue: Sculptor Emanuel Santos defends his bizarre work](https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-39442098)** > > Emanuel Santos says his statue of the football player unveiled in Madeira is "a matter of taste". I think the bust looks more like some drunken Toronto Maple Leaf from the 1940s. According to jack-ass “artist”: “It is impossible to please the Greeks and Trojans. Neither did Jesus please everyone.” (On the other hand…what else can he say. Goin “yeah, I fucked that one up, alright” probably wouldn’t have helped his cause either, I spose) Love this: “…it took him 15 days to complete, and the finished item ‘[w]as a matter of taste’.” hmmmm…how about another word that rhymes with “taste”? Might begin with an “h”? I’d wager that when Ronaldo first saw it, he must have been like WTF?!?! Too bad there wasn’t a photo capturing what surely would have been a bemused expression on his face. just sharin’ ---

It’s almost a Picasso with the features so twisted. ---

I was thinking more Angelica-Huston-from-Spinal-Tap kinda thing. ok maybe that was unfair, considering that, IIRC, it was Derek Smalls who mixed up inches for feet. ---

Looks like he didn’t notice the sliders in Fallout IV for eye-separation,right-eye-height, and right-ear-height reset to min and the setting for cheekbone-protrusion reset to max before he saved, but just decided to play the char anyway. ---

In my opinion, the sculpture is an improvement over the original. It certainly will dive less frequently. ---

The facial features look like a drawing a little kid made. ---

True, the sculpture shows him as a classier guy, but it won’t see any action from Paris Hilton. Maybe Trump sees it, gets a hardon, and buys it from the airport and puts it in one of his Manhattan bathrooms. ---
