oh, if i could take a red pen to this crap, WHAT i wouldn’t do….
or maybe it’s a parallel universe where homonyms are all loosey-goosey. whichever, there’s no excuse for skink-ing anybody or anything at anytime. it’s just bad manners.
A skink is not the same as a skank. A skink is a lizard. Does she let her skink chew on it to size down those nice, personable photos? I think I’m having an aneurysm.
I give her points for having manicured nails in the pics. I take away points for the nails not being all similar length. I am not sure if I should add or take away points for her index finger having a checkered pattern or not.
Regardless – I am going to attempt to use the word “skink” in a conversation at some point today.
Three random NASCAR facts:
1. There was a driver named Dick Trickle. True fact.
2. My husband and I used to live in the midwest, slept through races on tv and coined the term “NAPSCAR”.
3. An oft used phrase by NASCAR commentators:
“It’s just one of them deals.”
There’s just too much to choose from here; I’m not sure where to place my snark. And it’s all deserving; “rather it be” the horrible grammar, the bad nail job, the stupid bracelets…where to begin?
I’m not sure exactly what skinking is, but i’m reasonably sure that it’s no way to treat an innocent reptile, and it’s almost definitely non consensual.
i will never understand the appeal of NASCAR. it seems to me you could get the same effect by getting really high and standing on an overpass. it’d be cheaper too
I was waiting to see how long this would turn into NASCAR bashing…22 comments in, not too bad. Not that anyone cares but it is an interesting sport if you’re into cars- it’s really not all just about turning left. Plus it pays my bills (the small ones anyway)
I was personally going to blame her spelling on the fact that she’s a Jeff Gordon fan and therefore batshit crazy but she’s not. No excuse then.
I looked through her shop. It looks like the dollar store exploded in there.
I am puzzled as to the lack of cars on her NASCAR bracelets. She went to all that trouble to find the sponsors logos and rip them off, couldn’t she get a picture of the actual car?
I can hear they way she speaks by reading her writing. I’m sure she would tell you she started doing crafts “whenever” she was in high school. (that one always drives me particularly crazy!)
I hate Skinks. They are mean. To Skink: To make things some sizes smaller, not like shrinking, that is different. Steal (regretsy form): To brutally rape a ‘regretsy person’ of IQ points, often done with poor english/grammar/spelling. Stainless Steal(regretsy form): The horrified look a ‘regretsy person’ wears after a *steal* has occured. Generally followed by a facepalm, and possibly eye-bleach.
“Well I don’t know why I came here tonight,
I got the feeling that something ain’t right,
I’m so scared in case I fall off my chair,
And I’m wondering how I’ll get down the stairs,
Clowns to the left of me,
Jokers to the right, here I am,
Stuck in the middle with you.”
I don’t know, but something about “skink” just sounds horribly dirty to me.
Also, I’m so wanting to make a Friends quote here… something about a reject from the Mr. T Collection? I pity the foo’ who puts on my jewelry, I do! I do!
#45 sparklepire googly eyes :
“Well you could always take your Skink for a walk down a street in St. Louis called Skinker”
Reality trumps whimsicle snarking. I grew up in St. Louis, & my friend Tom used to take his lizard for a walk down the street. However, the lizard was a 6 foot iguana & the street was not Skinker. The iguana was also potty trained – I have pictures.
PLEASE!!!!!
someone with Level 4 Photoshop skills needs to make a skink skank skunk
it would be so unbearably awesome and i will be your new best friend
pleasepleasepleasepleaseplease?

so much better than what i had in mind.
As you just made my day, i’ll see what i can do in the chocolate & sunset front
I’m still chuckling!
My favourite thing about this whole listing is that despite “skink”, “steal” and “personable”, she can actually manage to spell “epoxy resin” correctly. How the hell does that work out? XD
One of my nicknames when I was little was ‘skink/skinker’…my mom had a gift for making up words and implementing them into our everyday vocabulary. When I try using them now, people give me funny looks.
Tammy Trailer Trash has to make a living too. I mean Jesus, if people buy those god awful taxidermy items, whats the harm in a little NASCAR copyright infringement.

I’d like to buy some punctuation, Vanna.
July 29, 2010 at 9:38 am
The amazing thing, #1, is that it really is a word:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skink
Just not, you know, a VERB is all.
July 29, 2010 at 9:39 am
Should be fairly easy to steal a dictionary, she has all that practice stealing images.
ZING!!! – HK

I may convo artist to see if they can make me an Iearn Lucky Charm Bracelet.
After all, they are magically delicious.

July 29, 2010 at 9:42 am
OH and she should be in the crazy nails hand model category.
July 29, 2010 at 9:43 am
I loves me the nails. French manicures skeeve me out but with a badly done checkerboard….. ohhh yeah.
July 29, 2010 at 9:44 am
That checkerboard fingernail will haunt my dreams, i fear.
And skinks are little lizards. Though I might skink down a little this weekend.

#5, you should contact “Tabbatha.” She sells it in bulk.

I just found a wild skink wearing this bracelet.
July 29, 2010 at 9:55 am
If I don’t have a personable photo will seller skink one of me looking really, really cranky?
July 29, 2010 at 9:56 am
Also – it’s pretty cool that she lets the bracelet dry.
July 29, 2010 at 10:00 am
Is it just me or is her pinky nail really screwed up? Like it’s sideways…
It’s really creeping me out.

Urban dictionary tells me that skinking is… “how a cat prowls around the house. It especially describes how smaller, more lithe cats behave.”
Personally, it looks to me like skinking is gluing small pieces of square paper to metal.
July 29, 2010 at 10:16 am
I’d buy something off of Zazzle if it meant we could send this seller a dictionary. It’s for a good cause…MY SANITY.
July 29, 2010 at 10:17 am
SOLD! to the lady smoking outside the DMV.
July 29, 2010 at 10:18 am
“Skink” is exactly the word that came to mind when I saw her nasty DMV-worker clickety-click-on-the-keyboard nails.
Oh wait, that’s “skank.”
Skink, skank, skunk.

@#26 – Holy shit. What are the odds that two Regretsy snarkers make a DMV comment at the same time? (Your comment hadn’t posted when I posted mine).
skinky.
July 29, 2010 at 10:25 am
Steal is a brand new kind of steel that has a gold tone.
July 29, 2010 at 10:28 am
If this is how she writes, imagine having a conversation with her.
July 29, 2010 at 10:29 am
holy crap is right…LOL
I just thought “Grinch” when I saw this…sorry for the blatant repost…
July 29, 2010 at 10:31 am
She doesn’t just need a dictionary. She needs a Strunk & White, too.
July 29, 2010 at 10:36 am
Rocza – don’t you mean a Strink & White?
July 29, 2010 at 10:36 am
Oh, related:
A woman on Jerry Springer said to another woman: “YOU ARE A HORE, H-O-R-E HORE!”
July 29, 2010 at 10:40 am
Redneck to English – fail.
July 29, 2010 at 10:42 am
I wonder if she skinks down the images herself, or if she takes them to Skinkos.
July 29, 2010 at 10:44 am
SKINK – lets conjugate shall we
I skink
You skank
They skunk and the whole mess is skinky
I will file this under Etsy ebonics

Skinkage is what happens when a man is submerged in cold water
July 29, 2010 at 10:47 am
Well you could always take your Skink for a walk down a street in St. Louis called Skinker. Hopefully no one will steel your brand new Skink bracelet.
July 29, 2010 at 10:48 am
…and at only $15 now that’s a steel!!!
July 29, 2010 at 10:50 am
I can hear they way she speaks by reading her writing. I’m sure she would tell you she started doing crafts “whenever” she was in high school. (that one always drives me particularly crazy!)
July 29, 2010 at 10:50 am
I wonder, duz she makes them fore the NASCAR driver Tonye Stewart cuz my ol’ mand is a big fand of hiz.

Skink it Down!

She has Sandy Claws (made only marginally better because it is not her feet).
July 29, 2010 at 1:06 pm
Mayhaps it is poor camera perspective, but she seems to have one of those wonky big toe thumbs, ala Megan Fox.

Skink
Not to be confused with skank. 2 totally different things.
July 29, 2010 at 7:18 pm
