HORRIFYING BONUS: Here’s a photo of me with Gary Busey on the set of a movie I did with him a few years ago. We only had one scene together, but it seemed like a lifetime.
I could see the top of the head of the second pic, and I knew I shouldn’t keep scrolling down, but I did anyways.
I realize that this is Regretsy though, and that it could have been far worse!
I would have preferred the rat as snake poop. (But then again, I have a gopher snake who eats rats all the time… I’d turn her loose, but her previous owner kept her in a tank for 7 years, so I don’t think she’d survive “in the wild”.)
The worst are those pictures in which the seller’s actually holding the rat. I’d… rather not touch it, thaaaaaanks.
And can we talk about those eyes? THE EYES.
I think she’s confusing “no animals were harmed” with “I’m not the one who killed it”. I’m an unapologetic meat-eating asshole who’s had several bf’s who’ve owned rat & guinea pig eating snakes … so I’m not all sad at the rat being dead, I’m just a stickler for accuracy in communication.
That pose DOES make me sad, though. It does not look like it’s flying. Not even a little bit.
I just found my new Christmas ornaments! Wonder if I could get a set of 12 with different color wings. And they’ll need matching tutus. And hopefully a wand?
Oh, scratch that. We try to keep our cats out of the tree. This would just send the wrong message.
That’s actually manicure, believe it or not. I tried that stuff myself – two-polish “Cracked” set. You put one coat of this one, another coat of the other one, base coat, top coat, whatever, – and that’s the outcome you get for the effort. It’s supposed to look like that.
Walgreen’s has magnetic polish now, too. You wave a magnet from the lid over your nails after the second topcoat, and it creates a weird ripple effect.
Neither looks like it would last more than a couple of days, I think I like it better than the cracked effect.
I saw an ad for magnetic polish and thought, “This is not going to end well.”
I imagine scores of women and drag queens all over bizarrely attached to metal surfaces by their polished nails.
And worse? Magnets either attract or oppose each other. A bunch of women get together and some keep getting thrown apart when their magnetic nail polish oppose each other and then one starts bitching about the other doing it deliberately and then the other one blurts out that the first one’s husband doesn’t mind when her nails are attached to his belt buckle and a cat fight ensues. Or they try, anyway.
Wait, two women or drag queens who wear opposing nail polish can’t get into a cat fight. But they can try really, really hard!
When I opened the page all I saw was “Dead Things” and then the top of Gary Busey’s picture. Apparently the first picture hadn’t loaded yet. As I thought to myself, “Oh no! Gary busy passed away” I saw the bottom of the picture and pissed myself.
Ok, as a part time naturalist and volunteer fossil prepper, it completely, (and surprisingly) INFURIATES me that the teeth are now glued into the wrong position. OMG, GTFO of my Great Outdoors.
Yet another prank played by crafters on future paleontologists who will be digging through our ruins and fossils.
“Good lord, Zira, they even had goat orthodontists back then!”
Also, at least they had an artistic vision and ran with it, made it themself with a degree of skill. I wouldn,t wear it, but it’d make a cute lightpull for a bathroom. Maybe for a child you weren’ttoo fond of.
I grew up next to the woods (and the child of scientists), and we’d find bones from naturally dead animals all the time. We’d bring them home and bleach them. The teeth are especially cool because they come out and go back in like a puzzle. Scavengers will eat all the meat off of a dead animal, often moving around parts of it. Larger scavengers (even as small as raccoons) can break up skulls to get at the internal stuffs. Moreover, lower jaws are hardly connected to the skull, so those are the most likely teeth-bearing pieces to be removed and scattered. It’s really not nearly as creepy as I imagine you’re imagining it.
Holy Shit, in high school my biology teacher gave out extra credit if we taxidermied our disected rat. Since I never did anything in the class, I needed any points I could get. I made my rat fairy wings and a ball gown. She had to have seen mine and copied it. (Of course mine was way better)
There are 2 kinds of people in the world. Those who while on a nature hike come across a dead animal part & walk past it & those who gleefully pick it up & make jewelry out of it. I am of the first kind.
I tend to pick it up in a “Man, that’s neat” kind of way, like a kid with pine cones, then about a quarter of a mile further I think “No, I’m a grownup, There’s no school nature-table waiting for this natural gem!” then I spend another mile thinking of possible uses, then I welly it into a hedge. It’s one of those denial, bargaining, accepptance things.
Gary Busey kissed my best friend full-on the mouth during last year’s local tattoo and horror convention. She said it was really wet and disgusting. True story.

June 21, 2012 at 5:17 pm
50 pounds in weight or currency?
June 22, 2012 at 4:31 pm
(chokes laughing)
Weight.
June 21, 2012 at 4:32 pm
Please. You want to impress us, show us goatsie teeth.
June 21, 2012 at 6:56 pm
I think predator goatsie counts.
June 22, 2012 at 6:13 am
NO!!! DO NOT SHOW US GOATSE TEETH!!!
June 23, 2012 at 11:17 am
*cowers and whimpers with dread*
June 28, 2012 at 1:44 am
Gary Busey will always be scarier than goatse. Always.

I wanna stand with you on a mountain
I wanna go down on your nethermouth full of teeth…
(don’t blame me for ‘nethermouth,’ Anne Rice did it first)

I realize that this is Regretsy though, and that it could have been far worse!
June 21, 2012 at 4:35 pm
I did the same. Saw the top of the head, stopped and scrolled up a bit, but curiosity got the best of me.
June 21, 2012 at 4:53 pm
PUSSIES
June 21, 2012 at 5:15 pm
Speaking of pussies, in the tiny pic on the FB link, I thought this was a frayed tampon as a pendant.
I can’t decide which is worse.
June 21, 2012 at 6:18 pm
Imagine, someplace in Cupcakeville…
“Hmmm, what goes best with this dress? Goat teeth or frayed tampon? Thanks to Etsy, I have a choice!”
June 21, 2012 at 11:13 pm
I ALSO thought it was some kind of tampon thing, and something in my mind told me “this is good to click on”.
June 21, 2012 at 5:23 pm
Hey… I resemble that remark! And you never know what’s gonna show up on Regretsy. I’ve learned to scroll down cautiously, especially while eating.
June 21, 2012 at 4:33 pm
I would buy it if it had the lovely bedazzled ying-yang on it that Busey is sporting.
June 21, 2012 at 4:35 pm
More “memento dentarius” than “memento mori”!!
[More "Remember the dentist" than "Remember you will die"]
June 21, 2012 at 4:36 pm
The manicure is what really makes me want to buy this piece: http://www.etsy.com/listing/99842422/goat-teeth-memento-mori-necklace

Guess no one’s getting any sleep tonight
June 21, 2012 at 5:56 pm
They come in the cold: dead things with glowing blue eyes…

What wrong message—don’t they believe in Santa Claws?
June 22, 2012 at 3:57 am
That is the saddest looking dead rat with wings I have ever seen. Not perky or nothin.
June 22, 2012 at 6:40 am
I so want to get that rat fairy as a gift for someone I don’t like very much.
June 21, 2012 at 4:50 pm
Too many things to remember to remember to do a manicure.
June 21, 2012 at 5:15 pm

I’d buy it if it was Busey’s teeth.
June 21, 2012 at 4:37 pm
Memento Busey.

Now my pride is dead…
June 21, 2012 at 4:46 pm
*Busey* Higher thinking is apparently the next thing to go.
June 21, 2012 at 4:47 pm
Someday he’ll grow up and have buck teeth.
June 22, 2012 at 11:19 am
You don’t think they’re worth more than that?

YOU ARE LOOKING GREAT TODAY, GARY BUSEY!
THANKS,GARY BUSEY!

GAHH! Fuck it all, Helen. I should know not to scroll down.

If you put that straight jacket on me, I’m going to pull your endocrine system out of your body.

June 21, 2012 at 5:42 pm
And yet the most disturbing thing to me is the fact that Gary Busey’s face still looks HUGE next to April in a large green wig.

Hopefully I won’t be downfisted for this, but I think that necklace is actually sort of cool. I like the setting.
June 21, 2012 at 7:31 pm
Reallly? I think it ….bites.
June 21, 2012 at 9:03 pm
Such stinging wit!
June 21, 2012 at 7:52 pm
No, I completely agree with you. All my upfists belong to you.
June 22, 2012 at 9:25 am
I think you’re in the wrong thread. You want the Derp Roundup of yesterday and the girls Fist Communion dress pattern.
June 22, 2012 at 6:52 am
That’s actually a very incisor comment. Do you have any molar?

For some reason, the fact that she rearranged the teeth to suit herself bothers me more than the idea of goat’s-teeth jewelery per se.
June 21, 2012 at 11:15 pm
I love dead things, but the rearrangement of the teeth bugs the crap out of me too.
June 22, 2012 at 9:08 am
I totally read that as “goatse” instead of goat’s teeth.
June 21, 2012 at 7:59 pm
Also pretty damn sure those are NOT goat teeth…
June 21, 2012 at 8:02 pm
I think they are Mater’s from the movie Cars.
June 21, 2012 at 8:47 pm
They definitely look like goat teeth to me. Google image search agrees with me.
June 22, 2012 at 3:59 pm

wait…those aren’t his real teeth?
I saw the etsy listing and got all excited to have my own set of real Busey teeth.
June 22, 2012 at 1:01 am
I prefer blue, but I’d take that shade of green hair.
June 22, 2012 at 4:30 am
Everytime Gary B comes up I think, they both look so happy in the picture. I wonder what Gary says about HK?
June 22, 2012 at 4:41 am
At least, the seller brushed the teeth before taking the photo.
June 22, 2012 at 6:16 am
At least we know she didn’t find this on Alibaba.

I tend to pick it up in a “Man, that’s neat” kind of way, like a kid with pine cones, then about a quarter of a mile further I think “No, I’m a grownup, There’s no school nature-table waiting for this natural gem!” then I spend another mile thinking of possible uses, then I welly it into a hedge. It’s one of those denial, bargaining, accepptance things.
June 22, 2012 at 10:25 am
OK. Picture of HK with Andy Dick.
Picture of HK with Gary Busey.
DING DING DING DING! Gary Busey for the WIN!
Any pics of HK with Karl from Sling Blade?
