crazy thought… there are enough of us regretsians that technically if we all put in a dollar we could indeed buy this and have some to chuck into the charity fund. or we could just put into the charity fund.
seriously, if this thing was like 10 bucks and finished, i’d totally buy it. this is the type of stuff i love to hang in my house to make my parents wonder where they went wrong.
I have a holy family done in shiny foil above my toilet (bought in Chinatown for $2.50). It’s been there so long I have literally forgotten about it. That is, until roommates’ and friends’ older family members have occasion to come into my house, and then I worry that it’s offensive.
It would only be offensive if you used it as a target. The only Christmas bathroom decoration I remember is the Santa toilet seat cover. He was wearing gloves, and when you lifted the lid, he was covering his eyes. In felt, with glitter and pompom fringe. By comparison, your’s sounds reverent.
I would love to get this and hang it on my wall, if only to see how utterly confused my mother would be when she saw it. Certainly not worth that much money though. I could probably buy twenty steampunktopus charms and put them on a pair of old sweater skants to get the same reaction. And that would only be around ten dollars or so. I’m all about bargains.
I’m not sure I understand. The article says that the item was originally posted in 2007. Is it STILL unfinished? Not enough Christian clay? Can’t substitute Christian eggshells? What? What?

It’s actually really cool as folk art, shame it’s ridiculously priced!

I call drunken puke sessions “praying at the altar.” Still reverent?

You just made me think that I should make a gingerbread house version of the Last Supper and bring it to Christmas with the family.
Question: If you eat the Jesus figure, would it count as communion?

But it’s on Barn Wood.. gives me an Etsy cupcake boner!

Begs the question would finishing it actually improve it at all?
December 2, 2011 at 10:55 am
I want to either pay off my house or buy this item… Hmmmm. It’s difficult. What to do?
December 2, 2011 at 11:30 am
What in the heavenly fuck is this???
December 2, 2011 at 11:59 am
I never knew that the apostles wore lamé disco suits to the last supper. Sweet.

Wait, wait. One hundred THOUSAND dollars for an unfinished art piece?
And unfinished art piece. One thousand dollars. I just don’t understand.

I have to back date the links so they don’t show up anywhere you could find them and spoil the big reveal.
