If someone I loved was murdered, and I saw some idiot prancing into Starbucks with this piece of crap on their arm, I would knock their fucking teeth out. Then I would tell the cop that assault and battery is born of friendship.
Yeah..but try to slap a pair of tits on a bag,
and you’ll have to call it mature and hide the 1st picture.
But blood, knives and violence is aaaaaaall good.
I won’t get personal with my critique. I’ll just say that this handbag has a low mind, an utter lack of propriety and a questionable idea of what accessories a woman should carry when she’s out and about among strangers.
Alright, any grappling I’ve been doing with whether it’s karmically questionable to publicly poke fun at some of these Etsy creations has been settled with this dandy little number. I used to think everyone should have the opportunity to express themselves creatively, but possibly I was wrong, case in point the murder purse, and I’d include bodiless pants guy and his freddie krueger fetish-wear since I’m pretty sure he’s trouble.
I wonder how much the handbag was worth before she painted it. Fake leopard fur on the inside? That is so rockabilly-tacky-cool I’d be doing backflips if I found it in an antique shop or thrift store.
This may not be the particular purse a young lady should carry on a first date, or say when meeting his parents. Unless your date is a member of either the Adams or Manson family.
Ooo, this is DARLING! Perfect for a night at the opera… say, ‘Pagliacci’?
No? How about the theater? ‘Othello’ is playing. Wait, he strangled her. Maybe this seller could make a bloodspattered scarf that says ‘I love you to death’.
sunshy,
actually one doesn’t have to leave the opera.
Verdi composed an ‘otello’. The Italian goobledygook spelling.
I prefer the Austrian/Germans. But Wagner just kills them off with anguish. Except siegfried got a spear in his back. However,in Berg Both ‘wozzeck”s marie and the title character in ‘lulu’ die by knives and though Lulu is killed by Jack the ripper, it is really meant to be her lover that she killed at the end of the first act. Same singer in a duo role.
No no, you guys. The bag clearly says “Murcler is born of love”. Now I may not know what murcler is, and I may not be sure why a plastic switchblade would be a toy, but clearly there is something deeply and subtly meaningful about this piece.
I think I need to point out a couple things to the dark sonovabitch that thought this morbid piece of whimsicle fuckery up.
The first thing is, tacking a plastic knife to a cheap leather handbag doesn’t give anything a nicer feel. It’s like shopping for birthday presents at a funeral home.
Second of all, the whole murder is love motif isn’t gothic, it’s FUCKING EMO.
Finally, if this doesn’t scream ‘I beat a hooker to death in a gas station bathroom’ I don’t know what does.
you know who makes this stuff? 17 year-old emo and or goth girls who are actually fairly artistically inclined and politically knowledgeable but who are secretly wishing they were that bella broad from the twilight series and who have actually never had to confront the reality of being victimized in any way.
that’s my most intuitive hypothesis, anyway. aside from that, this is some tacky shit.
I almost feel sorry for the idiot who buys this, because I’m sure that someone they come across will kick their ass when they see it.
And I’m betting they won’t understand why.
Probably figured nobody looks for shit right in front of them and that is how the idea of gluing the murder weapon to a purse was born.
Next problem- now how the fuck do I get rid of it where nobody would ever look- ETSY is clearly the place to do that.
Hooray!!! I finally figured out how to change that freaky avatar.
I’ll have to tell my 80 year old mother in Florida that all those years of school have finally paid off!!!!
Seriously? What would possess a person paint this? I nearly convo’d the seller of my displeasure. Since I believe very strongly in freedom of speech, even for stupidity, I restrained myself. #$%^&*$%&+@
What’s really wrong with this purse is not that it gives murder a “nicer feel” but that it’s really fucking ugly. April – you knock her teeth out, I’ll kick her in the shins and we’ll call it a day. Good times.

What an idiot.
I do know someone who was murdered and, no its not born of love, it was a random stupid attack in the street one new years eve. He had just said “Happy New year” to a person passing, and the guy decided to kill him for it.
I went ahead and sent a message to this seller. I tried to walk that fine line between insanely outraged and politely informative… I have known two people who were murdered and no, there was no love involved. I’m all for expressing yourself with your little Goth/Emo thing or whatever, but must you mock the dead and their survivors?
…really? This is obviously someone who hasn’t watched much truTV or thinks much about the effects of crimes…the only person I can imagine using this thing is some goth/deathrocker/horror punk wannabe
Uuuumm yeah….I agree with #79. You guys have the “angry mob” affect. Slightly intense. JUST a damn purse. No need for violent responses on this fun site. Drink some tea and burn your oils.
January 4, 2010 at 4:34 pm
is this atrisan related to th resident artist that made the Charlotte’s web W.F.?
January 4, 2010 at 4:37 pm
I love that the knife was added for a “nicer” feel.

January 4, 2010 at 4:41 pm
what does a spider web have to do with murder anyway?
January 4, 2010 at 4:42 pm
The threat of violence does always give a handbag a nicer feel.
January 4, 2010 at 4:43 pm
That is just insane! Was this made in prison in an art class for serial killers?
January 4, 2010 at 4:43 pm
Damn,
I was all for the neat clasp closure but the blood splatters kinda ruined it for me.
Also, what’s a Mucler?
January 4, 2010 at 4:43 pm
Appears to be celebrating murder. Will the next one be celebrating rape? I really don’t like to think about where this theme might take us.
January 4, 2010 at 4:43 pm
I know that when I love someone, I stare deeply into their eyes and whisper seductively, “I murder you.”
For some reason, they get all freaked out and run away.
January 4, 2010 at 4:44 pm

i would wear those. but i still wouldnt carry this purse.
“#28 dustbunny :

exactly. i have never known a goth who would use this, except maybe a 13 year old baby bat who just tore her first pair of fishnets.
January 4, 2010 at 5:52 pm
It would be an ideal bag to carry to your appointment with your Insurance Agent, in order to take out a policy on your new beloved.

Hey #31, CreepyLittleGirl, I wonder if you could scrape all the paint off?!? THAT would be cool!

If murder says “love” does bitch-slapping or pistol whipping mean “I like you?”
Sheesh…how does one say hello? With a pinch or a backhand?

To what affair do I bring my vintage clutch with plastic switchblade attached?
And what do I wear?
You know, I mean, because this is so *classy!*
*clutches pearls*
January 4, 2010 at 8:53 pm
Any girl that carries around a bag like this is not the kind of girl you take home to meet mother.
January 4, 2010 at 8:54 pm
Shouldn’t that be “borne”? (And doesn’t it look like it says “murcler”?)
@#8: A spiderweb tattoo on the elbow supposedly means that you’ve killed someone.
