Saw your website and had to respond to your call for "I amusingly altered a
product's packaging" tales.
I must preface this story with the fact that I was 17 years old at the time so anything that mentioned body parts was undeniably clever... Hard up for a birthday gift for a good friend of mine, I went to the grocery store armed with $3.00 in change. I bought a box of Butter Flavored Cookies, by Sunshine. With a little bit of white-out it was magically transformed in to Butt Flavored Cookies (flavored with real butt), made by Bunshine. It was his favorite gift. Although I don't think he ever ate one.

I almost amusingly altered a shop frontage in Nottingham city centre once. You would have loved this shop. It was specifically for Goths who really really wanted to look like prostitutes, and the shop window had these awful mannequins in it all sitting there with their bits on display underneath horrendous red fishnets and basques and fright wigs on. Anyway, this shop was called VOID, so me and a friend were going to paint a massive 'A' on the front of the sign, in the same curly Gothic writing. But we didn't, as we chickened out.
That reminds me, something I actually DID do in my student days - my best friend knew these REALLY sad rocker types, who all shared a house. They thought it was dead funny and cool that they had painted the words THE PIT on the wall outside their front garden, so me and my friend went there and added an 'S' on the end.... Oh, happy days!
