I was going to spend $300 on a pillow case from Anthropologie for my kid to sleep on and wash 100 times, but now? This $5 piece of shit will do the trick.
“New electronic painting machine imbeds the paint dots through the fabric”
Sounds like a wide format ink jet or an airbrush to me. Looks like it was finger painted by a blind lolrus. On crack.
what is this good for? do you hang it in your window, as in the picture, to ward off ne’er-do-wells and monsters?
or if you joined a militia and were holed-up in your house keeping the national guard at bay, you could let this freak-flag fly.
surely one is not meant to sleep on this. what if this new-fangled electro-paint-dot imbedder bleeds off into one’s hair….THEN would you be scared?
oh. and i never advocate the use of the “word” ain’t.
Oh, c’mon! This can’t be for real!!! Nobody would actually make something as crap as this and think anyone would buy it. It’s a joke, right? The only thing I can imagine using it for would be to clean up after the new puppy peed all over the floor.
Profound social commentary. The yellow lines are THE YELLOW WALLPAPER the child would otherwise be clawing off the walls, if not for that reassuring message.
@#29 – Etsy sellers sometimes use the word “oops” to sell something that is slightly off. (or incredibly off, as the pillow case may be)
At the risk of self-promotion, I will say that I have an “oops” item listed in my shop because it took a shit-long time to make and I’m too lazy to redo it.
OMG, blondeweezie. I’ll tell you something if a man took me back to his place, had that sheet on his bed, and thought he was getting lucky that night, well he’d have another thing coming (ew, no bad pun intended)! Maybe it IS safe sex after all – as in you’re NEVER getting any with sheets like that!
I have a sneaky suspicion that she’s drinking the Kool Aid too (mixed with a little moonshine) as part of her “painting process”.
I can see her mixing it up good in a big ‘ol bucket with her hands too.
WTF? http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=39439739
Two black in common? And thank FSM it has “rinkled lettering”.
BTW it’s a guy. That may explain the “close eyes use hands”, though I think that pillow is masturbating.
#74 buhbye,no no, you’re not alone in seeing that, but I think it may be the least of the problems with this crap.
What about the pillowcase that says fire, that he suggests putting in a window…
As if I don’t have anything better to do, I checked out the sold items, and the “guitar amps” are actually sort of interesting, but it looks like there’s been a downhill slide since then…like I think someone needs an intervention. Or to get back ON their meds…
Ok, Regretsy-ites. It’s OOP not Oops.
OOP stands for either
ONE OF PRODUCTION (meaning same as OOAK, or one of a kind)
or
OUT OF PRODUCTION (meaning an item which is no longer made.)
This whole paint machine idea freaks me out because it sorta looks like they just carefully stood over a pillow case and spit out kool-aid on it.
What has science done?
Sorry #47 razberries, accidentally gave you thumbs down, when in fact I would have given it 2 thumbs up if I could! I should never drink and rate! sorry!
If this “design” is “machine made”, the machine needs to be smashed into teeny tiny pieces. I say we all gang up on it and smash it like the guys in Office Space do to the copier.
@93 It’s almost like he’s auctioning them or like it’s an infomercial. I kept waiting for bids to open or for the 1-800 number to run across the bottom of the screen. He seems really nice and sincere, though. The heart and flower ones were okay, but this one is still really regretable.
If I had this pillow case, I would be *scared* that I would die in my sleep and someone would find my cold body on a pillow that said “i ain’t scared”. Suicide note? Confession? Wtf?

Oh but I am scared.I attempted to read the shit & I’m terrified.
March 17, 2010 at 9:37 am
I don’t even think … I can’t even…. WTF?
I am very curious about this electronic painting machine – it obviously does not come with stencils.
March 17, 2010 at 9:38 am
Yup. Blood will stain like that.
March 17, 2010 at 9:40 am
If this is the quality ofwork from this new-fangled “electronic painting machine”, you can keep it. Or better yet burn it.
I don’t need no stinkin’ paint imbedded in my linens.
March 17, 2010 at 9:41 am
A clean conscience makes the best pillow.
This utter crap is an unconscionable waste of cloth and paint.

Looks like this was painted by her two-year-old. Isn’t child labor illegal?
March 17, 2010 at 9:56 am
Why not just buy a nice pillow case for $5?
March 17, 2010 at 9:58 am
Looking at that thing makes me feel like I’ve been hitting the St. Patty’s day drinking pretty hard this morning.

Sorry, but what the hell is OOP? I know OOAK – am I missing something here? P.S. I thought the pillow case said Paint scared – that’s better.
March 17, 2010 at 10:19 am
If it isn’t in a sunlit window you probably couldn’t read what you already can’t read.
March 17, 2010 at 10:22 am
#25, I was just about to say this looks like something a rogue militia hangs out the window when the ATF is coming.
March 17, 2010 at 10:23 am
Everything in the shop looks like an 8 yr. old’s rejected attempts at making a Halloween costume.
March 17, 2010 at 10:26 am
It looks like a discarded “wet one” wipe after a mom wipes off her kid’s mouth after eating a red popsicle…is that descriptive enough?
March 17, 2010 at 10:26 am
Can I get one that says “I feel sick”?
March 17, 2010 at 10:28 am
Ok Cub Scouts, Drop the macaroni necklaces, orange Peel earrings, and cheez wiz jar tops!
We’re gonna branch out into the bedding market! Here’a a pile of ratty pillow cases, some watercolor paint and some beat up paint brushes.
Brush any words you want on these cases. Spelling and grammar don’t matter…good thing you’re all in 2nd grade!
WHAT! You were supposed to spell scared with a “K”. How am I gonna post it as whimisical if you’re making these look nice!

It’s amazing how well his new electronic painting machine creates the effect of Kool-Aid stains.
March 17, 2010 at 10:30 am

March 17, 2010 at 10:31 am
Her whole shop makes me scared!
March 17, 2010 at 10:34 am
Martha Stewart is kicking herself for not coming up with this first.
March 17, 2010 at 10:35 am
Well, I think we dodged a bullet–his profile says he will soon be putting his poetry on the pillowcases.
AND he designed the machine himself. How long until we see him on Shark Tank?

Even 100s of washings won’t wash the shit of this pillowcase?! Ugh. What a waste of good fabric.
March 17, 2010 at 10:48 am
#29 tejasmam, OOP can also mean out of print used for fabrics when designers discontinue a line or print.
I hope in this case that is what they mean!!!!!

It looks like evidence to me.

Where did they get these brown stained sheets? The county morgue? Or did they get them from Alli users???

Nope, it’s still available for purchase.
