Throbbing, Engorged Mailbag

Well, pinch my tits and call me “Phyllis”!

We have a metric shit ton of email today, so let’s stop whacking our thighs together and get right into the fuckery – now, while we can all still stand each other.

First up, a fantastic bit of fuckery from the Designer Shoe Warehouse, sent in by an eagle-eyed reader.

I’d like to believe that we had something to do with this.

I ‘d like to think we’re spreading our infectious brand of assholery like some kind of comedy Hanta Virus; commenting on the culture until we become the culture, in a sort of post-modern, recursive clusterfuck.

But it’s more likely that the person who put this together was just stupid, or hitting the Etsy pipe. 420!


Two separate readers found these labels in two different coats in two different stores.

Here is the crocheted Lady Gaga doll with the lovely Miss Coco-Puff Eyesli Star (right), the owner of said doll, and her bosom companion Miss Dominique D’Amour (left)! Enjoy the drag fabulousness!

I love these two. And I love to see things find their rightful owners. This is the best email ever.

Subject: I bought the clown gumball head!

My sister received her gumball clown. She was suitably horrified.

There was a lovely element of mystery and surprise, since she unpacked it upside down and saw only the gumballs at first. Then she saw the clown head. The seller offered personalization, so I sent it to my sister from my toddler daughter so she can’t throw it out.

BTW, the seller was SO nice, sweet and thoughtful. She clearly cares about what she does, so I left her very positive feedback.

I wonder how you sleep each night knowing that what you bring to the world brings pain to others. How sad that you take something that brings joy to the person making the “art” and work to make that person feel small over it. I feel sorry for you and all of the other mean-commenting folks on your site. Do your art and let others do theirs without ridicule. I wish you peace in your life.

Thank you Tracy, not only for this email, but for putting the word “art” in quotes. – HK

This was in an illustration show at my university. I saw it and immediately thought of Regretsy. It is (in)appropriately titled “Tender Morsels.” Enjoy!

I was watching Julia and Jacques Cooking at Home and saw this. I know it’s not THE cat, but still.


And perhaps my favorite piece of mail this year, from Cappy Sue, whose Penis Obsession painting was featured here yesterday:

This is why Cappy is my hero. And by the way, Cappy Sue is featured in the Regretsy book.

UPDATE: PENIS OBSESSION IS SOLD!

Plumb Ugly

It doesn’t like soup, it’s not a person. It’s not even a bracelet. it’s some plumbing part your husband had lying around, and you glued a bunch of shit on it. Is this what you do while he’s out snaking drains? For God’s sake, get off of Etsy and make some dinner.
