One of my favorite things in the world is chocolate. My Australian friend sends me parcels and always includes a few bricks of Cadbury.

But if these sellers don’t stop using the descriptive “chocolate” on their poop creations, Patty is gonna have to go all medieval on their asses.

That’s right, she’s so outraged, she’s talking about herself in the third person.

Okay, now, I’m a needle felter. I like to think that I make things that are pretty, fun “whimsicle” and hopefully collectible. I cannot, for the life of me, figure out a purpose for this. I know that some people like to take balls of yarn or material and put in a bowl, etc. But, gosh, you just don’t make something with brown wool that resembles a fricking ball of dukey!!!

I’m convinced this must be the crafting euphemism for ‘felted poo’. There is no way they don’t see it.

Someone should drop the pretense and open a shop that specializes in making felted poo in the shapes of various different animals’ droppings.

@pplrdum: it’s a common science lesson in grade school – you get to dissect an owl pellet and figure out what owls eat by looking at the bones you find. Do kids still do that these days, or are we dating ourselves?

I dissected owl pellets in girl guides, but they’re no poop, the owl cough them up like hair balls. The fluff in the fur and feathers of the animals that got eaten.

*takes off ‘be prepared’ hat*

I could make some of these by accident with all the wool scraps in my house. Just boil them and ring them out. Of course they would hardly be as durable, they also wouldn’t be brown.

It seems to be an Etsy tradition of some kind to be obsessed with vaginas, the bowel movements of fairies, and various things that resemble the excrement of various animals.

This seller seems to like to use “chocolate brown” as a code word for the last obsession I mentioned. This isn’t the only example of this: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=42202882
