More on the contrived and quirky
It seems a common part of being an embarrassing LP is to be an LP by a quirky band. And I'll tell you who would turn me right off: Ween.
Ween, have two good songs (for the record, they are 'Freedom of '76' and 'What Deaner Was Talking About'). If I saw White Pepper in anybody's album collection, I might be forced to vomit on them to get revenge for seeing Ween in a grown adult's record collection.
It is fine to have owned a Ween album (past tense), but not to still own one.

I would forgive, but not endorse, The mollusk or Quebec, NOT both, and you may have 'Push the little daisies' on a compilation CD.
The problem with Ween is that they are morbidly inconsistent. Songs that reach great heights ('Mutilated lips', 'The Mollusk', 'Transdermal celebration') are always interspersed with trivial, forgettable and often puerile bits of junk.
And that, frankly, is not good enough.
