The cover photo of ''No fun intended'' is interesting. But what is it exactly?

It just looks like a doll arm with some green stuff around it. I remember Dave telling me last year that his kid enjoyed sculpting, so maybe it's something he made in art class and Dave took the picture. Just speculating though.

My guess is that it is a hand representing a weed. The background seems to be black top with a thin white chalk line it. My guess is that it is a hopscotch drawing... seeing the weed/hand might represent the game hasn't been active for a while, meaning "No Fun Intended".

My original thought was kind of ''macabre''. Could it be related with a decoration made for a coffin?
The black top looks like it is covered with drops, for instance drops of rain on a coffin. The arm looks like ''broken'' and has the green details. Maybe it is part of a doll. Very black thought!
