Whats is the point of this perversion?"The holes we fill on the weekend are not enough"
"True spiritual fulfillment comes only from within"
"Let he who hath need of honeys, sup the milk of paradise instead."~ Scripture, verse X:Y

I love the story of this "renovation" so much. The idea that someone thought they could do it, got in over their head, and just iteratively kept making it worse is so funny to me. "I think the eyes were here? And... and they were looking up a bit, right? And I'm pretty sure he was smiling... and had a mustache... that doesn't make him look like an open-mouthed baboon does it? No, you're right, what we've got is really close enough. I don't think it's that different, is it? I mean, I can tell because I'm a painter, but no one else is going to notice." Bless their hearts.

and the priest then washed his hands of her once she botched it.
That being said, the piece is getting so much attention that the little church is raking in donations, and the woman is now sueing for a piece of the pie:

When I heard about this case back in the day, all I could think about was that scene in the Mr Bean movie where he fucks up the painting of the old lady and tries to fix it.

Yeah, I was thinking, "It feels like a real life scene out of Mr. Bean," but couldn't justify why that was the show it reminded me of. I always forget about the movie.
