I better act fast before Helen gets’em…That bitch buys all the skunk paws everytime they come on the market……I mean, I have a great Skunk Paw Pie recipe that im dying to try.
Muskrat glands AND skunk paws in the same week?! It’s like Thanksgiving has come early. Now if I can just find those desserts that had the seller’s hair in them I have the perfect meal!
I’m just gonna ask the obvious – Why the fuck is this person selling skunk paws? especially wet specimen ones….why ever the fuck that makes a difference.
Wait until people find out that skunk paws are a powerful aphrodisiac and the Chinese resellers start flooding etsy with cheap knockoffs. Where can this seller go then? (Besides to hell…)
A bit off-topic but a couple of weeks ago I stayed at a hotel that still has a real person do wake-up calls. Each morning I was greeted with “Good morning, this is Patina with your wake-up call…” Never did get to see if she was green, rustic, etc.
“Hon, can you grab the jar of preserves from the pantry? No, not the peach one, not the strawberry one, the other one. The one that’s just a bunch of skunk feet.”
SWEET JESUS.. I was scrolling through my facebook feed and I say “What’s for dinner” and I thought it was from another recipe thing I signed up for.. I looked at thought.. “THAT LOOKS LIKE… PAWS!?!” OH… it’s regretsy.. IT IS PAWS!!! Sweet baby jesus.. I’m becoming de-sensitized to regretsy.. *hears REM sing “It’s the end of the world”*
OOOh, look kids, no SPAM tonight. Tonight, it’s something special. Can you say, “RABIES”? That’s right. Not only do you get to chew on feet, you have the potential of dying anywhere from a couple of weeks to, the latest a couple of years. That’ll take care of the daycare bill and college fund too, right Dad?
OK, just clicked through to his Etsy store and, uh, well. Hmm. OK, I have my fair share of bones, teeth, feathers, shells and other fine collectibles. But it has never occurred to me to collect pickled animal limbs in jars. I have to wonder, what is in his basement and where’s grandma and her cat?
Okay, which one of you kids went and played patty cake with the skunk paws? Don’t you remember being grounded when you took Norman Bates’ mommy to the playground and pushed her real hard on the swing?
Wait a minute, this is an OPOSSUM paw! I specifically bought this for SKUNK paws!! Refund!!
Pssh fuckin opossum-paw-mixin-in-motherfucker. Like I won’t notice.

Pepe Le Pew is no longer a threat.

He hasn’t a leg to stand on.

Grief, it’s what’s for dinner.
August 15, 2012 at 4:07 pm
Ze eyes, zey say no, but ze mouth, it says ‘AAAAAAIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEE!!!’
August 15, 2012 at 2:01 pm
Oh, please. I live like 40 minutes from Manhattan… you can buy ANYTHING there.
August 15, 2012 at 4:52 pm
I bet you could find this at my local grocery store right next to the Dolores Pork Rinds.
August 15, 2012 at 11:08 pm
Yeah, but this is home made, not your big-box mass-market jar of skunk paws, and certainly not your overpriced chichi designer skunk paws.
August 15, 2012 at 2:01 pm
Well, I guess we should be glad that such a thing wont be seen again any time soon.
August 15, 2012 at 2:02 pm
You’re right. I won’t find another jar of THIS. Didn’t plan on looking, either.
August 15, 2012 at 2:08 pm
Holy geezuz I can’t look at the picture for more than 5 seconds, can’t imagine seeing this is real life!
August 15, 2012 at 2:02 pm
I think I’m really stating the obvious, but where the fuck is the rest of the skunk?!
August 15, 2012 at 2:07 pm
My pantry
August 15, 2012 at 2:07 pm
That’s in the DRY specimen jar. Duh.
August 15, 2012 at 2:10 pm
Obviously, you’ve never had the gumbo in Terrebone Parish, Louisiana or you wouldn’t have asked that question.
August 15, 2012 at 3:39 pm
Their pelts were made into a fur coat and Helen Gurley Brown was buried in it.
August 15, 2012 at 2:03 pm
I better act fast before Helen gets’em…That bitch buys all the skunk paws everytime they come on the market……I mean, I have a great Skunk Paw Pie recipe that im dying to try.
August 15, 2012 at 2:03 pm
It’s hands down my favorite.
August 15, 2012 at 2:07 pm
Nailed it!
August 15, 2012 at 2:37 pm
You didn’t even paws for that
August 15, 2012 at 2:59 pm
I just spray this is the end of it.
August 15, 2012 at 3:41 pm
Geez, people. You all need to get a grip.
August 15, 2012 at 7:25 pm
I’ll help pad the comments. I’d do that fur you.
August 16, 2012 at 3:33 pm
Yeah, I’m not getting what the big stink’s about.
August 15, 2012 at 9:13 pm
Yes, a very offhanded comment.
August 15, 2012 at 2:08 pm
She already nabbed all the muskrat glands, that hussy.
August 15, 2012 at 9:12 pm
Muskrat glands AND skunk paws in the same week?! It’s like Thanksgiving has come early. Now if I can just find those desserts that had the seller’s hair in them I have the perfect meal!
August 15, 2012 at 2:03 pm
It’s weird how much I want this, and their sales pitch is just making so much more enticing…
August 15, 2012 at 2:03 pm
Now if there were any skunks in my area, I’d prove this seller wrong.
August 15, 2012 at 2:04 pm
This is gross cos there’s a hair in it!
August 15, 2012 at 4:53 pm
I didn’t see rabbit anywhere in the listing. are you sure?
August 15, 2012 at 2:04 pm
Looks like somebody forgot to wash their little feet before preserving them. Dirty little stinkers.
August 15, 2012 at 2:04 pm
And if I AM able to find another jar like that? What then? How can I believe your promises THEN, seller?
August 15, 2012 at 2:05 pm
I feel bad for all of the para and quadriplegic skunks out there…*moment of silence*…
August 15, 2012 at 2:07 pm
Ampewtees.
August 15, 2012 at 2:13 pm
You win 10 million Internets for that one, LeeLooDallas.
August 15, 2012 at 2:11 pm
Quadriplegic skunks? That’s outglandish!
August 15, 2012 at 5:59 pm
It’s certainly paws for alarm.
August 15, 2012 at 2:55 pm
I’ve heard of defeeting the porpoise but this is something else entirely.
August 16, 2012 at 3:43 am
Bless their poor little soles.
August 15, 2012 at 2:06 pm
The paws that refreshes?
I don’t think so.
August 15, 2012 at 2:07 pm
I totally thought this was a resurgence of the Bonsai Kittens.
August 15, 2012 at 2:24 pm
Nope – just kamikaze skunks.
August 15, 2012 at 2:54 pm
I thought it was a monchcichi doll.
August 15, 2012 at 9:01 pm
I didn’t thumb you down, but I should’ve because you got the monchichi ad jingle stuck in my head.
August 15, 2012 at 2:08 pm
This is the first paws ever wanted to make me rewind.
August 15, 2012 at 2:09 pm
Oh, but the kids will just badger me for one.
August 15, 2012 at 2:10 pm
“You will not find [them] again any time soon”
… so sad the Skunk Paws broke up. They were a great band to see live!
August 15, 2012 at 2:24 pm
Add a pound of butter and some bacon and you’ve got yourself a vintage Paula Deen recipe.
August 15, 2012 at 2:26 pm
(aaarg that was meant as a stand alone comment.)
August 15, 2012 at 5:55 pm
It stood alone, or at least apart from the previous comment.
August 15, 2012 at 2:12 pm
How was this preserved? Pickled or formaldehyde?
I’m guessing pickled since it’s only paws from all of the hide.
August 15, 2012 at 2:15 pm
Connect them with gears and pocket watch and put ‘em up as reseller Steam Skunk
*ducks*
August 15, 2012 at 2:19 pm
paws for thought…
August 15, 2012 at 2:20 pm
and i promise you i will not cry if i don’t
August 15, 2012 at 2:20 pm
Because the bobcat paw bookmark wasn’t enough…

August 15, 2012 at 2:23 pm
dang it you were faster the I LOL
August 15, 2012 at 2:28 pm
;D faster than the average bear, coyote, possum, squirrel—and anything else that morbid, jar stuffer has to offer. lol
August 15, 2012 at 2:35 pm
faster than all those skunks with no feet.
August 15, 2012 at 2:22 pm
Skunk paws: the other black and white meat.
August 15, 2012 at 2:22 pm
i looked further and he had a paw bookmark…………..
August 15, 2012 at 2:35 pm
These are the losers in this year’s International Skunk Rock-Paper-Scissors tournament.
They’re reeeeeeaaaallllyyy competitive.
August 15, 2012 at 2:39 pm
I’m just gonna ask the obvious – Why the fuck is this person selling skunk paws? especially wet specimen ones….why ever the fuck that makes a difference.
I’m too afraid to click through.
August 15, 2012 at 6:54 pm
Because etsy says they can, And even if etsy says they can,t…they’ll sell them anyway!
August 15, 2012 at 9:15 pm
Of course they can. What’s more handmade than hands?(well, sort of hands).
August 15, 2012 at 2:41 pm
oh I get it – it’s that jellybean game where you win something if you guess how many are in the jar?
as long as i don’t win the jar I’ll play.
August 15, 2012 at 2:50 pm
When on Etsy, that’s a pretty fucking hollow promise.
August 15, 2012 at 2:52 pm
I get that people enjoy eating different things, but why on earth wouldn’t you clip the nails off? This is baffling.
August 15, 2012 at 7:31 pm
Fiber.
August 15, 2012 at 3:13 pm
I think I like Cookies in a Jar better. (Or maybe it was originally a recipe for “Bear Claws” and autocorrect got to it…)
August 15, 2012 at 3:15 pm
Proof positive that you can find anything in a mason jar on Etsy.
August 15, 2012 at 3:17 pm
are these listed under ‘handmade’? if so i think the seller doesn’t grasp the term
August 15, 2012 at 8:55 pm
pawmade
August 15, 2012 at 3:20 pm
Dude! I’ve got an awesome idea, lets open an Etsy store that just sells animal feet in jars.
And with these humble words, an empire was founded.
August 15, 2012 at 3:41 pm
The Hand Dynasty *dies inside a little*
August 16, 2012 at 8:20 am
yes yes mmmm yes Nothing like starting the day with a really bad pun -
August 15, 2012 at 3:20 pm
‘collective’ – not what the seller thinks it means
August 15, 2012 at 3:31 pm
What fresh hell is this?
August 15, 2012 at 7:30 pm
It’s not fresh hell, it’s preserved. Fresh hell can be found usually on the front page.
August 15, 2012 at 3:34 pm
Wait until people find out that skunk paws are a powerful aphrodisiac and the Chinese resellers start flooding etsy with cheap knockoffs. Where can this seller go then? (Besides to hell…)
August 15, 2012 at 3:39 pm
Once they get a foot in the door, you’ll never get rid of them.
August 15, 2012 at 3:43 pm
Musk you go on like this?
August 15, 2012 at 3:40 pm
Skunk feet do NOT bring good luck. Especially to the skunk.
August 15, 2012 at 4:06 pm
It’s right there in black and white, people.
August 15, 2012 at 4:08 pm
First time ever I’ve agreed with a seller product description. Well done, Seller!
August 15, 2012 at 4:11 pm
My dogs found a dead baby skunk in the bushes near my house – if only I’d known the bounty I could have reaped.
August 15, 2012 at 4:21 pm
This is actually the first time something on Etsy has disgusted me.
August 15, 2012 at 4:55 pm
Then you missed the myriad of dirty hippie posts.
August 15, 2012 at 5:52 pm
Wow. You’re REALLY new here, aren’t you?
August 15, 2012 at 7:29 pm
I’ll have whatever you are taking for nausea, then.
August 15, 2012 at 9:18 pm
I concur. It should be shared with the medical community ASAP.
August 16, 2012 at 9:37 am
You mean the first time today?
August 15, 2012 at 5:54 pm
“The solution is clear, with a nice patina.”
I didn’t know that patina was wet.
August 15, 2012 at 9:22 pm
A bit off-topic but a couple of weeks ago I stayed at a hotel that still has a real person do wake-up calls. Each morning I was greeted with “Good morning, this is Patina with your wake-up call…” Never did get to see if she was green, rustic, etc.
August 15, 2012 at 5:54 pm
Oh, goodie. I need a Gift of Spite for Christmas.
August 15, 2012 at 5:58 pm
“Hon, can you grab the jar of preserves from the pantry? No, not the peach one, not the strawberry one, the other one. The one that’s just a bunch of skunk feet.”
August 15, 2012 at 9:16 pm
For breakfast on that day when you’ve decided that the in-laws have outstayed their welcome?
August 15, 2012 at 6:04 pm
SWEET JESUS.. I was scrolling through my facebook feed and I say “What’s for dinner” and I thought it was from another recipe thing I signed up for.. I looked at thought.. “THAT LOOKS LIKE… PAWS!?!” OH… it’s regretsy.. IT IS PAWS!!! Sweet baby jesus.. I’m becoming de-sensitized to regretsy.. *hears REM sing “It’s the end of the world”*
August 15, 2012 at 6:21 pm
“the combination of the paws and claws pressed against the glass and the carnage in the background is creepy, chaotic, and awesome.”
Carnage? Creepy? Chaotic? I’d agree with that. Awesome? Not so much. All lovingly preserved in a Mason jar – gah!
August 15, 2012 at 7:28 pm
I could have sworn this would be listed as a supply, but no –I shit you not– it’s listed as “Handmade by BlackBearBathSalts.”
August 15, 2012 at 7:40 pm
HANDmade. Oh Lord, this stuff writes itself sometimes.
August 15, 2012 at 7:40 pm
OOOh, look kids, no SPAM tonight. Tonight, it’s something special. Can you say, “RABIES”? That’s right. Not only do you get to chew on feet, you have the potential of dying anywhere from a couple of weeks to, the latest a couple of years. That’ll take care of the daycare bill and college fund too, right Dad?
Seriously, this thing is a fucking health hazard.
August 15, 2012 at 7:51 pm
OK, just clicked through to his Etsy store and, uh, well. Hmm. OK, I have my fair share of bones, teeth, feathers, shells and other fine collectibles. But it has never occurred to me to collect pickled animal limbs in jars. I have to wonder, what is in his basement and where’s grandma and her cat?
August 15, 2012 at 7:57 pm
Ah, nothing like a cold, alcoholy mess of paws mixed with rabies. Talk about your delayed suicide. mmmmm, RABIES.
Interestingly, zombies and many horror films are based on the clinical signs of rabies. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rabies_in_popular_culture
August 15, 2012 at 8:02 pm
Do you really PROMISE I won’t find another jar of skunk paws anytime soon? Because I can live with that.
August 15, 2012 at 8:58 pm
1) someone bought it O.O
2) why was it marked “limited time” … do pickled skunk paws go bad?
August 15, 2012 at 9:01 pm
And if they do, how can you tell? Do they begin to smell better?
August 15, 2012 at 9:04 pm
*sporfles hard cider ow ow ow*
August 15, 2012 at 9:22 pm
Wee paws for a word from our sponsers…
August 15, 2012 at 9:23 pm
“o”, not “e” I was oxcited!
August 15, 2012 at 9:39 pm
Well this seller lists his items as cruelty-free, so at least he found a NICE way of amputating the limbs!
August 15, 2012 at 9:42 pm
Or, at least, the raccoon paws are cruelty-free. And proceeds go to the raccoons. So he’s paying his victims?
August 16, 2012 at 8:37 am
I am hoping that he uses roadkill for his merchandise.
August 15, 2012 at 10:18 pm
I certainly can’t disagree with the description.
August 15, 2012 at 11:03 pm
Okay, which one of you kids went and played patty cake with the skunk paws? Don’t you remember being grounded when you took Norman Bates’ mommy to the playground and pushed her real hard on the swing?
August 16, 2012 at 12:02 am
I want that description as a written disclaimer, please.
August 16, 2012 at 8:41 am
Do you suppose this is the same “artiste” that got evicted for having an apartment full of REEKING roadkill art on Worlds Worst Tenants?
August 16, 2012 at 11:21 am
Wait a minute, this is an OPOSSUM paw! I specifically bought this for SKUNK paws!! Refund!!
Pssh fuckin opossum-paw-mixin-in-motherfucker. Like I won’t notice.
August 17, 2012 at 5:56 am
… I don’t know WHY i clicked on it, but apparently the paws are gone, so a bunch of other stuff in jars came up.
This…. is a thing: “I figured that since umbilical cords are all the rage these days, I’d get in on the action!”
